Cogen is a retired USMC who has gone through unbelievable trials and tribulations to come out as strong as he is. We were honored to hear...

Today, I got a chance to speak with my senior and a good friend from my bachelor’s college DR. D.Y.Patil. It was so amazing to talk about sports and fitness with none other than a fitness and balance Guru. He is well known for training players in Pro-kabaddi and players in the Indian Cricket team. A simple philosophy to learn new skill sets and gain the knowledge to be a better therapist in the fi...

In this research review, we are highlighting what Greg Nuckols has put together around the impact of sleep (or lack of it) on strength. The two studies below look at how sleep impacts strength and the findings weren’t quite as big as you might have thought.

This research review looks at a study that utilized “research snacks” to see the effects on insulin, glucose and free fatty acids after melas throughout the day.

The results showed that for an overweight and obese group there was a decrease in insulin an...

After attending a Dry Needling course and getting some fantastic extra clinical pearls this one really stuck out to me. It was extremely interesting to think about utilizing lumbar adjustments as rehab, through the stretch reflex of muscles. We aren't downplaying rehab at all and think it is really important but I had never thought of this concept as something that worked in this way. So I did...

This episode could have gone on for hours. Reflecting back on so many different things that I could have done differently in my career is almost daunting, but worth it to try and learn and shape a better career in the future. The lessons learned were not only clinical (but there were a lot of those). There were so many lessons that I should have learned earlier about interaction with patients, coa...

The goal of any practitioner should be to continue to evolve and grow in their craft throughout their career. If you’re treating/training the exact same way you were 5-10 years ago you aren’t evolving and that could be a problem. In this mini-series I’ll be going through some of the things I “Wish I knew” earlier in my career and how I hope to get ahead of that in the future. The first subject is,...

We find ourselves giving this demonstration quite a bit so we thought we'd share. We were taught in high school to look up in the bottom of the squat....the more we learned the more we found that isn't the best option. In this Performance Insight we talk about the importance of head position and keeping your spine in neutral. And we show you a cool trick to try on your friends. #complicate...

There aren’t that many “hacks” out there that seem to really play out in science. This could be a simple and easy one that may challenge that trend. Hear about how doing a “soleus push up” can help you regulate a lot of aspects of your metabolism. Cited: Hamilton, M. T., Hamilton, D. G., & Zderic, T. W. (2022). A potent physiological method to magnify and sustain soleus oxidative metabolism im...

You may wonder why this would be under the 'nutrition' label when we are talking to a veterinarian but it will become very obvious as you get into the episode.  We had the privilege of talking to Dr. Guy Jodarski of Organic Valley.  We cover so much information about nutrition in this episode.  We talk organic vs. conventional, grass-fed vs. not, all the way down to soil quality.  If you h...

Performance training at any level can be complex, but it doesn’t need to be. With youth and high school athletes, there is often a feeling of wanting to do more as that can put you ahead. Hard work is definitely part of the process but it has to be smart as well. In this episode, we discuss what traying could look like and why more isn’t necessarily better. A lot can be accomplished by sticking to...
