In my opinion bracing wins over taping simply due to the fact that bracing does not lose tensile strength over time like taping can. If we're looking to provide stability for sport, lets not sacrifice that stability just because braces are bulky

[Triton Athletic Training @Triton_AT]

Bracing:
Pro - Can apply it yourself! / minimal time.
Con - Bulky

Pro - Does NOT lose strength over time
Con - $$ up front

Pro - Excellent option to provide stability
Con - Does not look cool :(

[Triton Athletic Training @Triton_AT]

Taping:
Pro - Can provide additional support to joint
Con - Takes up time (both in application and in waiting to be taped)

Pro - Customizable to the athlete
Con - Loses strength after about 20 minutes

Pro - Looks cool!
Con - Can create dependence

How do you beat a team that has more talent? Be more connected and committed. A team that becomes ONE will beat a group of talented separate individuals.

Triton Community!

I am running low on crutches here at the school. If anyone has any spare crutches collecting dust in a closet somewhere and would like to donate them it would be HUGELY appreciated.

Please send me an email at [email protected]

Great infographic! Giving the body the ample environment for healing to take place will help keep you in the shorter end of these estimates. Factors such as adequate blood flow, movement and quality nutrition will all help!

@TomBroback Absolutely!!! Motion is medicine!

[Triton Athletic Training @Triton_AT]

For every minute an AED is delayed during a sudden cardiac emergency, life expectancy decreases 6-10%.

In addition to the AED that's in my golf cart at all times, we are fortunate to have 2 AEDs outside at all times for Triton HS and the community!

This highlights the importance of proper nutrition prior to exercise.

Sports are hard enough, don't make them harder by inadequately fueling yourself

[Chris Beardsley @SandCResearch]

When muscle glycogen is low before exercise, this causes greater excitation-contraction coupling failure after exercise (as measured by low frequency fatigue).
