@FLGatorTrader Where can you get $hot?

@sfdryneedling Who is teaching the course?

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@DerekGriffin86 @LenMacPT There are probably common arguments to this..subjects can have different reason/TrP referral pattern for pain in the same location, poorly applied technique, not enough experience, restricted to the structure of the study. I am not saying TrPs are the only possible source

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@DerekGriffin86 @LenMacPT I agree.Lots of reasons for changes in pain & lots of techniques can create change. I’ve studied Travell and Simmons for 15 years w/great success. Lots has changed in research but the resource is still very valuable. Skilled therapists can create change many ways

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@LenMacPT I’m guessing some research says TrP’s are irrelevant/non existent or some version of that.Therefore some might ignore resources that say otherwise.The point that anecdotal becomes clinical experience is urs to decide. Maybe definitions or explanations change, but results don’t.

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@LenMacPT I didn’t realize TrP’s are controversial on Twitter. Probably means lots of missed opportunities for huge improvements bc people are caught up in research and biases. It takes a little practice, but your effort will be worthwhile.

The move was a huge undertaking, but the end result was well worth it. https://t.co/luanDsWaaz

@RUGBY_STR_COACH Totally Agree, watch enough film and you’ll know what’s about to happen. Im not trying picking on the athlete or coach, it’s a cool picture.

@UpholdInc @HelioGonzalez9 This isn’t working. Coinbase also unlinked me and plaid isn’t working either. What now?

Today is a good day for everyone to post this.

@FLGatorTrader Thanks, will watch during the next week.

@FLGatorTrader Which alternative can do 100k tps?

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@HafsaKamara @StuartMcMillan1 @ALTIS The beard helps.

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@jasaz9812 @ToddZywicki He is actually quoted in the article.

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@superD3k Thanks for the intel….Left quad tendon tear from Nov 2019. Still hyperextends until cued to bend and use his left leg. Harder to see but definitely there in video.

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@superD3k Curious, Have you had some right knee issues? Silly question considering the amount of training you’ve done…It flys into hyperextension during stance phase and creates a limp. I see this a lot with guys who haven’t gotten used to “using” their leg after an injury or surgery.

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@superD3k If they only knew Donnie. A top 5 guy can rely heavily on getting superior athletes & worry less about breaking them or having to take care of them.

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

@NickWinkelman My addition was you can’t rely on the cue to fix everything & coaches need to recognize other important variables that limit skill accusation & affect injury. Unfortunately that can be out of their & their training staffs skill set or job description.Thx for reply.

[Brian DaCunha @BrianRDaCunha]

The perfect cue has the potential 2 improve but cant optimize movement IF tissue quality, mobility, weakness, etc. will NOT allow it. otherwise could waste time & cause problems until underlying issues r improved. Reps & load w/poor (fill in blank) can be devastatingly injurious

[Nick Winkelman @NickWinkelman]

@EricCressey .@EricCressey, hope you’re well my man. I can’t help but see the contradiction between “optimizing motor learning” and “devastatingly injurious.” Would love to know what led you to this conclusion, as it sits well outside my experience using ext cues with challenging populations.
