Episode 44: Injuries in Powerlifting: Crunching The Numbers with Andrew Patton



How prevalent are injuries in powerlifting? Is there a difference between male and female? Does having a pre-existing training limitation increase your risk of injury? Are there other risk factors to consider? We ask these questions and discuss the answers with PhD candidate Andrew Patton, as he dissects his longitudinal study on powerlifting injures.

Episode 43: Pain: Moving Beyond The BioPsychoSocial Model



The biopsychosocial model is currently the gold standard with which we understand pain. However, are there limitations? Is it being misinterpreted? How can we continue to improve upon it, and further our understanding of the complexity of pain?
In this episode, we are joined by pain researchers Peter Stilwell and Katherine Harman, to discuss their recent paper, titled: “An Enactive Approach To Pain: Beyond The Biopsychosocial Model”. This was a thought provoking discussion about the questions above, and much more.

Episode 41: Treating & Training The Endurance Athlete with Danielle Adler Kroot



What are the important first steps for the beginner endurance athlete? How much do running biomechanics matter for performance and injury? How does one go about educating the hard-charging endurance athlete on altering their habits? We discuss these things and much more with Physical Therapist and endurance athlete Danielle Adler Kroot.

Episode 40: Overhead Lifting For Athletes with Marcos Soriano



Are weightlifting overhead derivatives useful for athletes who are not competitive weightlifters? What do we really mean when we say force output, rate of force, and impulse of force? Can the push press and jerk carry over to our ability to jump? Is there an argument for the use over overhead derivatives versus the bench press for upper body strength in athletes? We discuss these things and more with sports scientist Marcos Soriano.

Episode 35: Knee Function & Strength Differences Between Young Athletes Who Return to Prior Level and Those That Don’t after ACLR, with Matt Ithurburn, PT, PhD.



Do young athletes who return to prior level of sport after ACLR have better knee function and strength when they are cleared, compared to young athletes who end up with a second ACL tear or don’t make it back to prior level? The answer might surprise you..

What other factors should we be looking at for return to sport testing in athletes after ACLR? Researcher and clinician Matt Ithurburn, PT, PhD came onto the show to discuss these topics and more!
