Isn’t it wild that we have a cure for 7 out of the top 10 causes of death, yet we refuse to make the right choices and implement? Eat whole natural food Exercise Note: No one is saying you have to run a marathon or compete in CrossFit games, simple walking works too! #health

Let’s get away from saying “they’re injury prone” Let’s focus on what’s really happening -Poor Nutrition -Poor Sleep Schedules -Didn’t Take Treatment Seriously -Half Assed Their Lifts -Didn’t Do Their Correctives -And On -And On

Fascial reinforcement can lessen strain on musculature as it takes on a large portion of the load in eccentric & static positions! -Hollerman et al. Muscle & Fascia=Peanut Butter & Jelly

“Stay in your lane” is one of the worst phrases. Getting out of that lane is how you grow… Let’s keep growing! I’m starting a new IG series called “Hoops & Health” with the goal of bringing in hoopers/professionals across the world and talk health & high level hoops!

It’s not always about redesigning the wheel. Rather, looking at the wheel thru different lenses.
Injury prevention and sports performance are cut from the same cloth
Grounding aka Earthing: The transfer of electrons from the body to the earth and vice versa.
Never stop chasing adaptability and variability #chaos
If you can’t lunge properly, why would you add weight? If you can’t squat correctly, why would you add weight? That’s a recipe for injury. Correct the movement first, then load the movement!

Flexibility Tip: Training with SUB-MAX loads at the END of ROM paired with NASAL breathes will improve total ROM & strength thru the ROM spectrum! #LoadedMobility

Everyone needs to share this! We all love free, non-biased, evidence-based health advice to improve fitness, reverse obesity, and improve the health and well-being of everyone around me. And that is why I have accepted the position of Director of Education for @P3HPPi

The best advice I can give any athletic trainer is to understand that STRENGTH is the underlying theme between injury prevention & performance.
