@kcrehabguy @ArthroscopyJ When we have some of the more prestigious institutions in ACL rehab/research quantifying their loading protocols with an “x” instead of sets/reps/some form of intensity can we be surprised. It’s probably as much talking past each other on what is loading as anything else.

Derek Miles, DPT (@DMilesPT) with an assist from Thomas Campitelli wrote the Barbell Medicine Guide to Tendinopathy. What it is, what are the likely causes, and how to approach rehabilitation.

[Derek Miles @DMilesPT]

@kcrehabguy @DR_Ebner @DrQuinnHenochPT Yeah, I’ve seen it a few times in athletes who have been pulling >2-3x/week at higher RPE/%’s

[Derek Miles @DMilesPT]

This thread sounds eerily familiar to the expansion in another, closely related field in the US.

[Bryan Carmody @jbcarmody]

Andrew Taylor Still was the father of osteopathic medicine, and the A.T. Still School of Osteopathic Medicine in Arizona has been a leader in DO education.

ATSU-SOMA just announced a major change in their curriculum… one that has big implications for schools elsewhere.

@PhysioSkeptical @GregLehman This is probably the closest I came across but I don’t know if it is especially pertinent to @GregLehman’s question. https://t.co/mF469UmRSJ

Excellent opportunity to work with an excellent clinician. If you’re looking for a clinic to grow and learn from one of the best, look no further.

[Laura Opstedal @LauraOpstedal]

Hey y'all- I'm hiring- need a sports PT to start ASAP. Mentorship, lots of ACLs, clinic with future expansion to include full gym, isokinetic dynamometer, force plates, competitive pay structure, not a mill.

@Matthew_Rupiper I don’t *want* to like this but the accuracy of the tweet is spot on. Almost like the JOSPT article on trunk exercises. Low certainty in evidence, high certainty after a weekend course or because that is what the residency pushes.

[Derek Miles @DMilesPT]

Our most recent article on programming power as part of rehab. https://t.co/9zsyp6fUSP

@buceoman I hope it was an excellent cup of coffee once brewed.

[Jordan Feigenbaum, M.D. @Jordan_theCoach]

New @BarbellMedicine podcast is up. In this one, @DMilesPT and I talk about SI joint movement and how it's probably not causing low back or hip pain.

In Ep. #216 @DMilesPT and I discuss power training after an injury and beyond.
"Everyone’s like "yeah I strength train my patients” and you’re like what does that mean? It’s good that you have found the exercise, but odds are you’re underdosing them." https://t.co/seylFOMvWE

@mike_exercise Do you have a citation for that? “Muscle tone” isn’t really a measurable construct. Stabilization exercises are typically as much motor learning/coordination as anything else. There are plenty of strong individuals that experience low back pain.

[Derek Miles @DMilesPT]

The issue is that now with high certainty institutions will continue to implement trunk and core work as a panacea for low back pain.

[JOSPT Community @JOSPT]

With low certainty, our authors conclude

Trunk (core) exercise programs ⬇️ pain and disability & ⬆️ Quality of Life and core muscle fitness

-> outperforming general exercise in people with #LowBackPain

Pretty excellent group to be mentioned in. CSM is always a great time and getting to talk to these folk is a big part of what makes it that way.

[Mark Riebel @MarkRiebelPT]

Great turnout for our performance in rehab talk with @DMilesPT and Rob Rowland. Looking forward to the rest of the conference! #aptacsm

[Barbell Medicine @BarbellMedicine]

Itching to join us but missed LA? The #Pain and #Rehab seminar has been retooled, revamped and is just around the corner. Join @DMilesPT and the rest of the P&R crew in Miami this January!

@AlexisMLeveille It is all going to be based on professional opinion. I would say resistance training is perfectly fine for kids with a diagnosis of scoliosis. The angle “can” increase but it can also stay the same/regress. We can’t always make decisions based on the possibility of a problem.
