Quinn and Steph are starting another NEW series on the ClinicalAthlete Podcast! 

Welcome to The CALU Clinical Files.

To all you listeners (yes all 6 of you), you DON’T want to miss this.

Quinn and Steph are starting this series to dive into some of their real life cases in which they have navigated some unknowns and come out on the other side to really have a positive effect on their client’s lives (pretty much they are just crushing it and want to brag!). 

Steph, as you all know, is on the Level Up “side of things” and a HUGE part of the CALU merger. She is passionate (and very good at) ACL rehabilitation and is currently working out of Boston PT and Wellness. 

On this episode, Steph describes a case about a rockstar high-school senior who is a competitive skier and unfortunately tore his ACL on the slopes. Post-surgery, Steph tested his quad Limb Symmetry Index (LSI) at the following timestamps with subjective reports:

3 months: Quad LSI approx. 60%-feeling GOOD

6 months: Quad LSI approx. 90%- followed up with anterior knee pain and reports of it feeling…. “wobbly”. 

Cue tears?!

Come listen to find out what exactly was going on and how Steph navigated the reports of pain and discomfort!!

Ever dive into the research for a whole weekend and then just had NoOoO idea how to apply it to your client on Monday morning? Or even better, you figure out how to apply it and quickly realize it just didn’t work? 

Maybe you’re an athlete who is having a hard time digesting all the info regarding training and injuries on the good ole’ internet?

This show is for you.

John and Jared have been reflecting on their own experiences and the conversations they’ve had with previous ClinicalAthlete Podcast guests. They’ve gained tons of insights as both coaches and athletes because of this, but they knew that a lot of coaches and athletes were still struggling to make sense of it all.

Enter The Nameless Series!

(Don’t worry, YOU’RE going to help us name it!)

This is a laid-back, informal series all about how to blend being a coach and an athlete, helping you and your athletes perform better, and finding comfort in the “grey area”. The guys want to use this show to pass on what they’ve learned so far and what they’re learning now, so you can learn from it too. They’ll be bringing on influential guests from the athletic and coaching worlds that have wisdom to share – you’ll probably recognize some of them!

During this very first episode, John issues a “hair-off” challenge to Omar Isuf!

The duo also talk about how much they love watching the little wins with their athletes and getting to know them more than just an athlete. They emphasize the importance of finding that blend of using the scientific-research but also connecting on a deeper level with your athletes and coaches.

Make sure to keep an eye on John, Jared, and ClinicalAthlete’s Instagrams to vote for a name to this new series!

On our previous Coach’s Corner series, Quinn, John and Jared each broke down a case study. In this part 1 of a 3 part series, the team gets together to talk about their own training programs and how they each navigate any hurdles that come up in their training. Jared’s up first- whatta lucky guy! 

This episode dives into the details of Jared’s current training program and the adjustments he had to make after an injury. Jared talks about how slowing down and simplifying things in the gym hats transferred over to his everyday life as well! 

Enjoy!
