Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Athletes Keep Getting Re-Injured After "Full Recovery"
Q: Is there a best exercise for pelvic and rib cage stability, and how do you approach this area?
There isn't a single best exercise; emphasize breath work to improve rib cage expansion, followed by 3D pelvis work across sagittal, frontal, and transverse planes to restore movement and then load those patterns with strength training to ensure robust, efficient movement.
Why Athletes Keep Getting Re-Injured After "Full Recovery"
Q: What are top tips for early stage ACL rehab?
Prioritize restoring flexion and extension quickly, begin loading as soon as tolerable, and maintain diligent control of swelling and tissue loading to enable progression toward strength and return-to-run milestones, all while tailoring loading to the athlete's stage and recovery trajectory.
Why Athletes Keep Getting Re-Injured After "Full Recovery"
Q: How do you approach session design, particularly warmups, for in-person versus general sessions?
The in-person session starts with an assessment and uses a structured progression from bodyweight assessments to movement and strength tests, followed by targeted prep work based on observed restrictions and injury status; for general sessions, the design mirrors the assessment findings but focuses on ongoing, standard strength and movement development.

Q: What would you tell your 18 year old self?
To go for it and not second-guess yourself, emphasizing the importance of confidence.
