A parent of a 3rd grader asked me to write 'a program' for the kid this summer.

My response: take them to the playground 5 days per week; have them climb, jump, run, push, pull, etc. up and down and all around the structures and play area. Play tag etc.

Three things to prioritize when choosing a physical therapy school:

1) A good pass rate on the board exam. Can't practice if you don't pass.

2) Affordable tuition and cost of living.

3) Freedom to choose clinical rotations and set up new clinical affiliations.

1. Know what tissue you’re trying to load.

2. Know how to progress that load.

One of the best ways to improve your rehab skills:

Get in the weight room.

Learn from your strength and conditioning colleagues.

Learn how to develop real strength and power.

3x10 straight leg raise isn’t going to cut it.

Plainville (1A🏈) had just 130 students in its high school last year in grades 9-12 combined.

They have two players on Division I depth charts, a Division II starter and a NAIA all conference player that all played HS football together at the same time. Something you don’t see everyday.

Breaking up sitting time with bodyweight exercise (chair squat, calf raise, knee raise) improved postprandial glycemic response

It’s disturbingly common these days to see notes from other providers documenting that they did full physical exams and when I say “forgive me I’m probably the millionth person to do this” they say no one has done ANY physical exam at all

[Ryan Horn @ryanhorn45]

The weight-room is special because it only rewards those that work. It values tenacity over talent. It doesn’t care about ⭐️’s or playing time. It’s a sanctuary where athletes aren’t subject to scrutiny from the outside world. The weight-room is an equal opportunity equalizer.

Physical therapy in pro sports isn't about the latest trends, tech, or certifications.

Even at the highest level of sport, it's about doing the basics exceptionally well.

The bill would allow PTs to participate in the NHSC Loan Repayment Program, which repays up to $50,000 in outstanding student loans to certain health care professionals who agree to work for at least two years in a designated Health Professional Shortage Area. #PTAdvocacy

Accept when you make mistakes and don’t blame others. Be harder on yourself than you are others! Trust me I have made many mistakes. Own them! Learn from them.

Dead ankles during performance will :
- increase GCT
- decrease performance
- increase soft tissue stress

Fix by teaching a more active ankle

Every jump, hop, skip, sprint, and bound quite literally start and end with the foot and ankle complex

Worthy time investment!

The projected cost of treating falls is projected to reach $101 billion by 2030. In addressing this growing problem, the U.S. healthcare system has an invaluable tool at its disposal: physical therapy. https://t.co/OP3vwRP6Ql

Soleus iso push is a nice alternative to seated calf raises with dumbbells.

DB’s can be awkward to set up and aren’t heavy enough to get a great stimulus.

We’ve started with 10s pushes and will progress to 3-5s ballistic pushes

[Super 70s Sports @Super70sSports]

I recently saw a research study that concluded dodge ball is an “unethical tool of oppression.” Sounds to me like somebody’s still salty because they couldn’t dodge a ball.
