Episode 132: A Third Path For The PT w/ MovementX



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor welcome two special guests onto the show – Josh D’Angelo and Rich Ortiz of MovementX

Josh is a co-founder of MovementX, which is a company that is providing Physical Therapists with unique employment opportunities that help them both scratch the entrepreneurial itch, but also provide stability within an established and trusted brand. It was really cool to hear Josh tell the founding story and go into what makes MovementX such a unique company to work for, and in turn, to bringing great care to their clientele. And Rich Ortiz is one of those bright shining star Physical Therapists who’s crushing it within the MovementX umbrella, so it was cool to get that perspective as well – and Rich also recently completed the clinical Athlete provider certification, so he’s a great example of someone who is really trying to maximize their professional development gainz. 

We go into a ton more – what can rehab professionals do to connect with their communities and educate them on what value they bring to the table, what can new grads do, or anybody looking for growth really, to find those new opportunities, and a ton more. It really was a great conversation.

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 130: Hooper’s Delight w/ Ramsey Nijem



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor welcome a special guest onto the show – Ramsey Nijem who is the Director of Performance for the men’s basketball team at the University of Kansas. And before that, Ramsey worked for years in the NBA as a head strength & conditioning coach, so needless to say, he knows a thing or two about working with basketball players and teams at the highest levels. 

We go into so much on this show – what it’s like working within a high performance staff and how all the different hats of S&C, rehab, sport coaches all work together, differences in how he planned and programmed training in the NBA vs. college; how his training programs are structured from off season to in season, how he manages training when injuries or fatigue are present within the team or individual athletes to still help them get some kind of training effect in season, 

All of this AND more

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 129: A Better Perspective on Injury & Rehab



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor riff on a few topics that all have to do with how we as providers, and how athletes view injury, rehab, and training as a whole. Have you ever had someone say to you – aren’t you a PT, shouldn’t you be able to fix yourself? Which is funny because Zak talks about how he literally just strained his hamstring 3 days ago, and goes into how he’s managing it for an upcoming tennis tournament. Or, do you ever get the sense that athletes and clients expect rehab to work in the same way that a mechanic fixes a car or an electrician fixes a light switch? A lot of times it just ain’t that straightforward.  Or take something like Plyometrics – we often associate that word with end stage rehab or for high level athletes, but is that the best way to think about it?   

All of this AND more

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 128: Leveling Up The CA Provider Program



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor discuss some major upgrades to our Clinical Athlete Provider curriculum – now, the thing is, these upgrades are inspired by feedback and some continued friction points that providers are still experiencing with ExRx in general.  So, there are PLENTY of actionable takeaways from this episode that anyone listening can apply to their athletes right away.

Episode 124: CSCS, OCS, Yada Yada Yummy Cert Salad!



We get these questions a lot – “Should I get the CSCS cert?” “Should I get my OCS?” and the like. So, we thought we’d give our thoughts on these and other credentials specifically, but also talk more generally about what ‘learning’ really is and how you can answer these questions for yourself.

We hope you enjoy!
