Episode 153: Repeat It Like It’s The First Time

Podcast, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Ever feel like we have to repeat certain things to our athletes, even when we thought there was a mutual understanding?  Well, let’s also consider it from the athlete’s side. 

On this episode, Clinical Athlete Co-Founder Quinn Henoch discusses how to navigate our athlete education more effectively, so that even if we do have to repeat ourselves, it all just becomes a useful part of the process.

Hope you enjoy!

Episode 150: Defining Your Role – Solocast w/ Quinn Henoch

Podcast, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Omnipresent Exercise Prescription Process Auditor (OEPPA):

– Oh cool, you have a new athlete that you’re working with. What’s your specific role in their overall plan?

Well Meaning Physical Therapist (WMPT):

– I’m the Physical Therapist. I’ll be doing the Physical Therapy. 

Omnipresent Exercise Prescription Process Auditor (OEPPA):

– That means nothing to me.

“Defining Your Role” is a foundational principle of our exercise prescription and overall planning for any athlete that we’re working with.

It’s not just repeating your professional title.  

It’s also where a lot of athlete rehab plans go wrong from Day 1. Don’t be that provider. Listen to this episode. 

Hope you enjoy

Episode 149: Deep Dive into Exercise Programming, Planning, and Periodization

Podcast, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Quinn Henoch & Zak Gabor are back with another episode!  On this show, we tackle some topics around exercise prescription that we know you wrestle with too — how far out do we program for our rehabbing athletes? Is it different than an athlete training only for “performance”?  What does “periodization” really mean, and how do we balance being flexible enough with our programming to account for the volatility of rehab, while not losing sight of the big picture?  They discuss it all.

Hope you enjoy

Episode 148: Current Tendinopathy Landscape w/ Peter Malliaras

Podcast, , , , , , , , , , , ,

Quinn Henoch & Zak Gabor are back with another episode!  On this show, the CA squad sat down with Peter Malliaras who has done a TON of the research over the last decade on all things tendons and tendinopathy. You’ve probably come across some of his work, even if you didn’t realize it. He’s really helped to push the field forward. The cool thing is that he’s also a clinician, so he understands this stuff from multiple angles, and we all know how tricky tendon issue issues can be clinically. So, we’re super excited to have Peter share some of his knowledge with you on this one.

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 146: “Hey Can I Start Using Knee Wraps & Getting Dry Needling?”

Podcast, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Quinn Henoch & Zak Gabor are back with another episode!  The “Honey & Vinegar” segment makes its return, as Zak rants about what annoys him on social media, and Quinn calms the waters with a shout out to coaches and other providers who put their athletes first.

And then we talked about a couple of scenarios that were going on with their athletes that had to do with athletes posing the question of using external supports such as knee wraps during training and another about modalities, in this case dry needling. These discussions with athletes can be very fruitful, but also challenging, so we talk about that a bit here.

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 145: Solving the Scaries of Mid Stage Rehab

Podcast, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

On this show, Quinn Henoch & Zak Gabor discuss all of the things that make mid stage rehab challenging, and common pitfalls, like:

  • Sticking arbitrarily to rigid timelines and progressing before the athlete is ready
  • Waiting too long to start introducing basic entry points for your exercise categories
  • Not having a clear understanding or criteria for what qualities need to be prioritized

Also, we are VERY excited to introduce a new segment, where Zak and Quinn bring a little honey and vinegar to the rehab space — and Quinn got to put on his hater shades!  We’re still open to names for this segment, so feel free to help us out!

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 141: The Mentor Squad with Steph & Steph

Podcast, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

On this episode we have the whole Executive Clinical Athlete Provider Mentor Team — Quinn Henoch, Zak Gabor, Steph Allen, and Steph Mundt. We started as the 4 mentors in the Clinical Athlete Provider Certification Program exactly two years ago in March of 2024. Our mentor team has now grown to 8 and counting, but there’s been a ton of growth in many other aspects over the last 2 years. So, we thought it’d be a great opportunity to get the 4 of us on the show for the first time together, and reflect on the last two years.  There’s a lot of great nuggets to take away from this about working with a team and continuing your professional development within leadership positions. 

We hope you enjoy!
