Kettlebell Workout - Unilateral Focus ⤵️ The kettlebell is one of the most versatile training tools available. I love the barbell just as much as the next fitness enthusiast, but the kettlebell is perfect for so many reasons. There's a ton of variety and versatility - and - you always get a great grip challenge since the handle is typically thicker in diameter. ⠀ Here's a quick workout you can try out if you only have access to one light-to-moderate kettlebell. Depending on your training goals and desires, I'd suggest using somewhere between one 15 lb to 30 lb kettlebell for this workout. ⠀ I created this workout with a simple template that you can use to input your own exercises if you'd like. Swipe over to the second image to save and use. ⠀ My goals here are to dial in on unilateral (single leg or single arm) loading for a quick and efficient workout. This full-body workout will build strength and challenge your conditioning! ⠀ Reposted with permissi...

In this episode, Erson recalls a case from earlier on in his career when he was fixing everyone with his “magic hands.” It would still be a while before he adopted active over passive strategies, but this definitely struck him as an epic fail for a long time patient.

By Dr. Sean M. Wells, PT, DPT, ATC/L, OCS, CSCS, CNPT, Cert-DN Cardiac physical therapy is a rewarding area of PT practice that takes precision, complex thinking, and a team of specialists working toward a common goal. Often patients in cardiac rehabilitation present with chest pain (angina), ischemic heart disease, stents, bypass surgeries, and/or heart failure. Doctors of physical therapy do their best to push these patients to maximize their endurance, functioning, and cardiac capability. We often do this through various interventions like treadmill exercises, stepping, strengthening, and breathing techniques.  After a recent study, nutrition may be one of those interventions that PTs need to focus more on. New Study Published in the  British Journal of Nutrition , researchers found a correlation with plant-focused diets, like the MIND and Mediterranean diets, with left ventricular function. Specifically the researchers looked at cohort sample of 2,512 pa...

Anatomical risk factors of lateral ankle sprain INTRO: Lateral ankle sprains (LAS) are the most common musculoskeletal injuries, accounting for about 10%-30% of all athletic injuries.  LAS can have serious consequences for the injured athletes in terms of treatment costs and time lost from the sport.  Up to 70% of cases are persistent and can lead to post-traumatic ankle arthritis.  The highest rate of ankle sprain usually occurs in sports that involve running, cutting, and jumping.  Understanding what increases risk of ankle sprain could improve effective prevention and rehab measures. Saki et al. (2021) determined the risk of non contact ankle sprains in athletes based on: Previous ankle sprain history. Q angle [A] Knee recurvatum [B] Navicular drop [C] Tibia vara [D] Tibia torsion [E] Ankle ROM [F] METHODS: 152 adolescent male athletes assessed during preseason for 7 risk factors listed above. LASs were prospectively recorded and diagnose...

Only three months into the year 2021 and pubmed already has over 170,000 articles published pertaining to the topic of medicine. With many medical providers already suffering from high caseloads along with increased work and documentation standards, it becomes difficult to dive into all the new practical literature that is constantly updating. In order to at least try to keep your head above water, many providers will read the abstract which is a short summary of the article’s main findings and results.  The problem with that, is that many abstracts contain spin to “beef” up their findings better promoting it for publication. In order to detect whether abstracts are prone to spin, Paul Ingraham, who is much smarter than me, has delivered 5+ red flags you can identify to appraise whether the article contains a lot of spin. 5+ Red flags an abstract contains spin by Cameron Faller 👉Omission of effect size and making too much of P-values instead 👉Emphasizi...

In this episode, Erson tells Andrew about a really confusing and worrying case where his daughter was misdiagnosed with a "Toe Sprain." It obviously wasn't a toe sprain and it cleared up with antibiotics, but then it recurred, in a completely different toe, and on the opposite foot? What was the final treatment and diagnosis?  Incidentally, after the actual diagnosis, it turns out several of Erson's friends' children (and some adults) have similar presentations.
