I may have missed a couple weeks of tweets for the @ILAthTrainers safety sport initiative, but I’ve been too busy providing the best care I can to all my fall athletes! #AT4ALL

[Adam Beck @A_Beck93]

There are plenty of tools in my office that we use for recovery, but there is one that most athletes don’t focus on very often and that’s sleep! A good nights sleep can make a world of difference in how you feel and how you perform! #ATSafeSports

[Adam Beck @A_Beck93]

Athletic trainers are on the sideline to watch out for the health and safety of the athletes. This also includes monitoring the weather. When storms roll in you’ll see me on the @perryweather app monitoring how close a lightning strike is to the playing field. #ATSafeSports

Hosting XC meet and JV soccer tournament this morning calls for having venue specific EAPs for each event location. I also pack for any emergency I might come across. #ATSafeSports @ILAthTrainers

As we prepare for week 3 action we need to take note of the importance of hydration. I preach to all my athletes hydration and nutrition is not just a game day thing, it’s an everyday commitment. To be great on game day you must fuel the body all week long. #ATSafeSports

[Adam Beck @A_Beck93]

This year the IATA safety in sports initiative focuses on showcasing how an AT works with all sports teams to better the health and safety for all athletes. In the past couple weeks I’ve done a lot with equipment and brace fitting, and taking proper precautions with the heat!

Athletic trainers are so much more than ice bags and ankle tape - they are the true "MVPs" of athletic medicine! Coaches, ADs and parents, take time to appreciate your ATs - the health/safety and performance of your players count on them!!

Our favorite month is finally here! Happy National Athletic Training Month!
For all those early mornings and late nights. From 12-hour workdays, to weekend games/practices.
From perfecting an ankle TJ, to brewing the perfect cooler of Gatorade.
Thank You for supporting athletes on and off the field. The bond between athletic trainers and athletes is detrimental to the game.

This week for #ATSafeFB the focus is on AT Value. Since the beginning of fall sports in August I’ve had over 750 patient visits. Those visits have added up to over $58K worth of injury evaluations, treatment, and rehab to @HHSbulldogsIL student athletes!

[Adam Beck @A_Beck93]

This past week of #ATSafeFB we discuss all the fall sports. During the fall I provide coverage for 6 sports at all levels. Also, providing treatment for off season athletes as they prepare for their seasons. Fall is a busy season, but everyone deserves coverage! #AT4ALL

[Adam Beck @A_Beck93]

Everybody sees the action on Friday nights, but not everyone sees the treatments that keep them out there. Injury evaluation, develop a rehab plan, and timely treatments. These are essential week in and week out to keep these athletes going. #ATSafeFB

[Adam Beck @A_Beck93]

Week 6 of #ATSafeFB is all about rest and recovery. I use many tools to help aid in recovery, but one that is often overlooked is the power of sleep!

Week 5 of IATA safety in football is about severe weather and having a plan for when it happens. This week we’ve moved practices and events later in the evening to prevent heat illness. Also had to be ready to monitor lightning. Be ready and have a plan! #ATSafeFB

[Adam Beck @A_Beck93]

As I unpack from last nights football game and repack for an off campus XC meet I always make sure I have an AED on hand. With a change in venue comes a change in EAP, always be prepared. #ATSafeFB #AT4ALL
