Throughout 99.9% of human history, the environment forced you to be physical enough to be in robust health by default
Todays environment removes physicality, puts food everywhere, & all but ensures that poor health is the default
You’ve got to be an outlier to be healthy
I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t work incredibly hard that is happy with where they’re at. Not saying the system can’t be hacked, just saying I haven’t seen it yet
@kirtipatelmd Ugh. 💔 It breaks my heart that professional women in healthcare would encourage sleeping around. We need more positive examples in this space 👎🏻
@marklaslett_NZ Many new grads (for MSK) think:
-You don't need to make a Dx
-Exercise type doesn't matter
-Just be nice to everyone and get them active (it doesn't matter how) - they'll get better.
Bigger fish to fry in undergraduate education
«You’re so lucky getting to work with people, meeting new people and helping them!!»
«Yeah, but you also get empathy fatigued, a constant feeling of not being good enough, not knowing enough and constantly thinking you got it wrong»
«Yeah, but it’s fun right!»
«So much fun»
To clarify; I’m a huge proponent of ‘strengthening’ for pretty much every msk condition. We just have no evidence that changes in strength explain more than a very tiny fraction (if that) of clinical outcomes. Maybe new evidence will change this but atm I’m at peace with this.
Why do obese people have higher rates of hand and shoulder arthritis when they dont walk around on their hands?
Because #arthritis is not just a condition of excessive loads on joints causing wear and tear!

I am going to be controversial!
Behaviour change principles around health behaviours are more important than specific exercise principles & programming for MSK problems
@SBethPTDPT I love this! I wish all physios would join in. Anatomy & biomechanics don’t change much over the years but refreshing the info when you as a practitioner can view it in different mindsets is key 🙌🏻
