@chadcookpt @JOSPT I would be interested to read this article, but it does not appear to be open access. If you can provide a copy it would be greatly appreciated.

@smickdougle @TrendsCognSci @CellPressNews @hannahillman Thank you for posting open access to the paper. I was only able to find it through your post here. I look forward to reading it.

@TKPhysPrep Wait, you didn't just tell them to run while they still can?

@carmenbott Are there any descriptive epidemiological studies supporting this? I’m curious about the years and populations studied, especially considering increased participation rates. With enhanced surveillance and limited historical data, the claim of rising injuries needs deeper analysis

Warmups and cooldowns go beyond exercises; they're phases to guide your nervous system towards your desired state of arousal. #SportsScience #TrainingTips #PerformanceMindset

It seems the last tweet really got some people fired up. Apparently, some people really do not like to warm-up!

They're going to love this one 😊

If short on time, and by short on time, I mean if you have less than ~90min to train, the whole session should just be one big warm-up followed by one big cool-down.

@Results_Period How many athletes are adhering to the morning routine? Some kids are dedicated, but I’ve struggled to get everyone to consistently take measures outside of practice time. Any tips?

@thethinkersmith Any plan to make your books accessible as ebooks?

Coaching professional athletes may sound impressive, but let's be real - you're helping an entertainer make money. It's like being a costume designer or hair stylist for a movie star. Don't get too big for your britches.

@MarkHoover71 @SHREDmillSpeed Thanks, Mark. I appreciate your willingness to share information and offer support. I will watch the presentation and get back with any questions.

@jacricks I imagine coaches showing kids what contralateral is - “put this foot forward and turn your opposite shoulder towards that lead leg”. Then, go on about how hip hiking and decreased trunk rotation during walking increases their chance of injury. Certified Walking Specialist (CWS)

@datadrivenAT It’s a can of worms, but I’m trying to organize a way to convey the obstacles and opportunities that I’ve encountered thus far. The issue stems from the observation that research is rarely informing practice and practice doesn’t reflect research methodology.

[Michael Ryan Ph.D. @kinesigen]

While doing participatory action research, I’ve obsessed over using “readiness” and “training response” measures that are scientifically validated

If I don’t follow protocols, my research methodology will lack scientific rigor

[Michael Ryan Ph.D. @kinesigen]

@StrengthDebates To me, grinding through multiple reps to determine a multi-rep max is more sketchy than grinding through one single rep. Either way, a true max isn’t going to be an athlete’s prettiest lift. I’d opt to minimize the fatigue going into that.

[Michael Ryan Ph.D. @kinesigen]

Artists say it’s too rigid - that the reductionism cannot reflect the complexity of life

Scientists say it’s pseudoscience - invalid and unreliable methodology subject to whims

Where do these worlds come together to provide us the most accurate and insightful awareness?

@StuartMcMillan1 @pfats_com @ALTIS @ALTISEdu @PFATSFoundation Bravo to an organization that uses the term athletic therapist to refer to what is traditionally called an athletic trainer in the states. This is helpful to the profession. Hopefully it catches on.

@SportsmithHQ @alex_natera “For movements like running where muscles perform isometrically”

Running is performed via isometric muscle contractions? This is ground breaking. What new definition of isometric was created?
