If you treat young athletes, you have seen this note a hundred times. A 14-year-old gets referred for low back pain, and somewhere in the orthopedic report is the phrase "hamstring tightness," presented as if it settles the question. Tight hamstrings, tilted pelvis, cranky back. Case closed. Go stretch.It's a tidy story. It's also the kind of story that survives because it sounds mechanical and nobody stops to check it. And when you actually look at what the research says, the picture gets a lot more complicated in a way that should change how you evaluate these kids.Start with the obvious problem. Almost every adolescent in the middle of a growth spurt has tight hamstrings. Bones outpace soft tissue, flexibility drops, and it happens to the kids with back pain and the kids without it. So if you're going to call it a cause, you have to explain why the vast majority of tight-hamstring teenagers walk around perfectly fine. Then there's the direction of the arrow. Does the tightness create the back pain, or does the back pain create the tightness?That second question is where this gets clinically important. Because there is one specific scenario in adolescent back pain where hamstring tightness matters enormously, and in that scenario it is not something you stretch. It's something you recognize, and it should send you looking somewhere else entirely. Miss it and you can spend six weeks on a mobility program while the actual problem gets worse.On this week's episode of the Ask Mike Reinold Show, we get into what hamstring tightness in a young athlete is actually telling you, how to tell the difference between short tissue, neural tension, and protective guarding, and the specific findings that should make you stop treating and start imaging. Give it a listen.To see full show notes and more, head to: https://mikereinold.com/is-hamstring-tightness-correlated-to-low-back-pain-in-young-athletes/----------Want to learn a complete system to help people restore, optimize, and enhance their performance?Enrollment in my Champion Performance Specialist program is opening soon.

Hamstring strains are incredibly frustrating. You get an athlete feeling great, they go for a sprint, and the muscle grabs again. We have all been there. It is the most common time-loss injury we see in running and field sports.For years, sports medicine professionals have debated whether biologics actually speed up recovery. Some studies show great results. Other studies suggest they are a waste of money. The conflicting data makes it hard to give our athletes a straight answer when they ask if an injection will get them back on the field faster.A recent randomized controlled trial finally standardizes the protocol to give us better clarity. The researchers looked specifically at grade 2 tears and used ultrasound-guided injections alongside a traditional rehabilitation program. The results completely change how we should view biological adjuncts in muscle rehab.Listen to this week's podcast episode to hear a full breakdown of the study. We discuss exactly how much time these injections can shave off a recovery timeline and how you can apply these findings to the athletes you treat.To see full show notes and more, head to: https://mikereinold.com/does-prp-actually-work-for-hamstring-strains/----------Want to learn a complete system to help people restore, optimize, and enhance their performance?Enrollment in my Champion Performance Specialist program is opening soon.

Many analysts believe we are in the early stages of a secular bear market in bonds. In this episode of the Midweek Memo podcast, host Mike Maharrey talks about the possible ramifications of this bond bear market, arguing that it could not only fundamentally alter the investment landscape, but it could also hamstring the Fed's efforts to fight price inflation. This scenario could cause a significant shakeup in the world economy and financial system. It's also extremely bullish for precious metals.

We have covered volume a handful of times on the podcast — ETP#167 (Personalizing Your Training Volume), ETP#188 (Quality Volume), and most recently ETP#207 (The Training Volume Model). This one comes at it from a different angle: not "what's the right number of sets," but how that number can change over a training career as skill as a lifter improves.The whole thing started with Aaron's quads. They used to be the body part he was almost ashamed of, and now they're on par with everything else. Except he only trains them once a week, six sets, and they're in shambles for five or six days afterward. That low a dose creating that much stimulus had Aaron questioning a lot of things, mainly: what actually makes a lagging body part lag? Is it genetics, or is it that you just haven't figured out how to contract the muscle well enough yet? Aaron's honest belief is leaning hard toward the second one.So we get into the precision side of volume. Why a row isn't always a 1.0 stimulus, why your weak points might not need more sets so much as better execution, how strength curves explain why back and delts get buried under volume while quads light up off almost nothing, and how to actually manipulate all of this with rep ranges and resistance profiles. Plus some personal updates up top, including one of Aaron's that went unexpectedly viral.Covered in this episode:Why volume needs can drop as your precision and skill improve, and the asterisk on "more volume is better until it isn't"Aaron's theory that lagging body parts lag because you haven't learned to contract them well — not because of geneticsThe Kyle Baxter pronation/foot-pressure cue that finally unlocked Aaron's quadsWhy quads hold post-workout stimulus for days when nothing else does (blood flow, lengthened overload, and the fact that we walk on our legs)Strength curve vs resistance curve, and why short-overloaded muscles like delts and back need more volume to reach the same inroadsThe leaning lateral raise trick — disadvantaging your own bad habit to force a better stimulusUsing the 15/10/5 rep scheme to go short on the high-rep sets and lengthened on the low-rep setsPrioritization: deprioritize what's already good and pour the days into what you actually want to bring upHamstrings/biceps vs quads/triceps, the cramp problem, and why some muscles just don't follow the same rulesTimestamps: 00:00 Intro: How Much Is Enough? + The Prior Volume Episodes 01:00 Bryan's Update: 15/10/5 and Why Full Body Is "For the Birds" 03:00 Aaron's Personal Update + The Post That Went Viral 05:00 The 1989 LA Raiders Mug 06:00 The Real Topic: Volume Dose Response Per Muscle Group 07:00 Can Precision Change Your Volume Needs? 08:00 Aaron's Quads: From Lagging to Wrecked on Six Sets 09:00 What Actually Makes a Lagging Body Part? 10:00 Lengthened Overload and Leaning Into the Stretch 12:00 Squat Variables: Stance, Knee Tracking, Foot Pressure 13:00 The Kyle Baxter Pronation Cue 15:00 Aaron's Current Quad Setup (Leg Extension + Squat Pattern) 17:00 Six Sets, Shattered for Days + Repeated Bout Effect 21:00 The Post-Workout Stimulus Window: Quads vs Everything Else 22:00 Double the Chest Volume, Lower the Stimulus 23:00 The "Washing Your Hair" Delt Test 24:00 Splitting Volume vs One Big Day 25:00 Aaron's Theory: Lagging = Not Contracting Well Yet 27:00 The Leaning Lateral Raise (Disadvantaging the Shrug) 29:00 Strength Curve vs Resistance Curve 30:00 Why Beginners Can't Feel Their Legs 31:00 Blood Flow, Bro Splits, and Dispersed Stimulus 33:00 Prioritizing: Deprioritize What's Already Good 34:00 Building a Program Around Your Weak Points 35:00 Aaron's Back Days: High Volume, Still Can't Feel It 37:00 Why Back and Delts Need More Volume 38:00 Manipulating Resistance Profiles Across a Whole Day 39:00 The 15/10/5: Short on the Highs, Lengthened on the Lows 41:00 The Asterisk on "More Volume Is Better" 42:00 A Row Isn't Always a 1.0 Stimulus 43:00 Finding the Rep Range Before Weight Takes Over 44:00 Pausing in the Short Position to Build the Pattern 47:00 Hamstrings, Biceps, and the Cramp Problem 49:00 Biceps Femoris: Pullers vs Pushers 50:00 Why Quads Are Just Different Post-Workout 52:00 Closing: Training Maturity and Looking Inward Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST
Become part of the Science of Sport Community, and take part in our global durability trial, plus get our free show, ad-free listening, and our world class forums! A small monthly donation is all it takes!This week's Spotlight focuses on the doping case of Marketa Vondrousova's four year ban for refusing to provide a sample during an out of competition test in 2025. We also return to the USA for some Football World Cup insights, cover some injury science with implications for Keely Hodgkinson's season, and issue a call to arms for members ahead of our durability experiment. Here's what's on the show today:A leg-breaking tackle in the Canada versus Qatar game sparked a debate among our listeners on Discourse that cuts to the heart of how sport punishes dangerous play. Should the sanction reflect what the player did, or what happened as a result? Ross draws on his rugby background to explain why outcome-based punishment is more common and more defensible than it first appears, and why intent is almost impossible to use as a standardTravel demands at the World Cup are discussed by a listener in this article - we ask whether this could be decisive to the outcome, which takes us on a journey into travel load and its implications for performanceThe momentum graphics appearing on screen during World Cup broadcasts continue to prompt discussion among our listeners. We explore how they actually work, why they might be interesting to fans but are almost certainly meaningless to coaches, and what question you would need to answer before you could trust them at all?Our main feature is former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova, now banned for four years for refusing a doping test. We explain why the anti-doping system has to treat a refusal as the equivalent of a positive test, why her own social media post on the night made things worse for her, and why comparing her ban to the Sinner and Swiatek cases misses the point entirelyKeely Hodgkinson withdrew from the 400 metres at the UK Athletics Championships in tears after experiencing "hamstring tightness" before the race. We explore why, even if this turns out to be nothing, the pattern of recurring hamstring tightness is worth paying close attention to, and shares the sobering statistics on hamstring re-injury rates and risk factors that make this more than just a precautionary withdrawalWorld Rugby has permanently approved a lower tackle height for community rugby, but with a catch: different unions can choose between the waist and the sternum as their legal limit. We discuss why that flexibility exists, what it means in practice, and what would have to be agreed before any change could come to the elite gameA cyclist suffered a concussion during the Tour de Suisse and continued racing for several more stages. Gareth's initial reaction is that it's another policy failure by the UCI, but we discuss it and discover a number of scenarios that would explain how it happened without any fault from the UCIAnd finally, a call to action for members. Our Applied show this Friday will cover durability, and we are turning it into a live global experiment. Over the coming weeks we will be asking supporters to complete a set of time trials on the bike, and we will use that data to build your power duration curve, work out your W prime, and calculate your durability index. All the details will be on Discourse and Discord for membersOh, and why is Messi so comparatively poor at penalties?

Most people assume tight hamstrings are a stretching problem. They're not. Hamstring tightness is almost always multifactorial, which means the solution requires a broader range of strategies — not more of the same stretching that hasn't worked.On this podcast, Jason breaks down 6 evidence-informed strategies for improving hamstring flexibility that go well beyond passive stretching. Whether you're a yoga teacher, yoga student, or anyone focused on mobility and movement quality, these strategies will change how you think about — and train — your hamstrings.What you'll learn:-Why foam rolling works neurologically — not just mechanically — and how to use it as a primer before you stretch-Why strengthening your glutes may do more for your hamstring flexibility than more stretching ever will-How weak hip flexors limit anterior pelvic tilt — and why that directly limits hamstring length-Why your adductors (especially adductor magnus) may be quietly working against your hamstring flexibility-How dynamic stretching and engaged stretching give your nervous system more feedback — and unlock more range than passive stretching alone-Why hamstring tightness is almost always multifactorial — and why there is no single magic techniqueSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/yogaland.

What if cueing the body wasn't about telling muscles what to do — but helping clients feel how their body already knows how to move? In this solo episode of The Pilates Lounge Podcast, Katie explores how Pilates teachers can cue muscles without directly asking clients to "switch on," "activate," or "engage" specific muscles. Drawing from her own teaching experience, Katie shares how her cueing language has evolved over the years and why functional movement should reflect how the body naturally works in everyday life. Using simple examples like picking up a coffee cup or walking, she explains why constantly cueing muscle contraction may sometimes interrupt natural coordination rather than improve it. This episode invites Pilates professionals to think deeper about body awareness, joint placement, integrated movement, and how to use language, touch, imagery, props, and the environment to help clients connect with their body in a more natural and functional way. In This Episode, We Discuss: Why Katie no longer relies heavily on cues like "switch on your core" How teaching language naturally evolves over time Why Pilates cueing should support real-life function The difference between muscle activation and body awareness Why actively cueing muscles can sometimes interrupt natural movement How to help clients understand where their body is in space The role of joint placement in supporting better movement How to cue the core without directly saying "engage your core" How to help clients feel hamstring connection through the heel Why the body works as an integrated system, not isolated muscles How props, touch, equipment, and imagery can improve client awareness Why curiosity and feedback are essential for Pilates teachers Key Takeaways ✨ Pilates cueing does not always need to focus on individual muscle activation ✨ The body naturally coordinates movement without conscious muscle commands ✨ Functional teaching should reflect how clients move in everyday life ✨ Joint placement and body awareness can help muscles work more naturally ✨ Imagery, touch, props, and the environment can support deeper client understanding ✨ Teaching language will continue to evolve as your experience and knowledge grow ✨ There is no perfect way to teach — only the best way you can teach with what you know today About Katie Crane Katie Crane is the host of The Pilates Lounge Podcast and founder of The Pilates Professional. With decades of experience in the Pilates industry, Katie supports Pilates teachers and movement professionals in deepening their understanding of the body, refining their teaching approach, and developing more thoughtful, functional, and client-centered practices. In this episode, Katie shares a personal and practical reflection on cueing, teaching evolution, and how Pilates professionals can better guide clients toward movement that feels natural, integrated, and empowering.

Glute pain, sciatica, hamstring issues, and hip impingements can be some of the most confusing — and frustrating — injuries runners deal with. Because when pain shows up in the glute, hip, hamstring, or low back, the actual cause isn't always where you feel it.In this episode, I'm joined again by physical therapist and strength coach Kameron Harder to continue our injury prevention and rehab series for runners. This time, we break down some of the trickiest problem areas in the posterior chain and hips — including why glute pain might actually be coming from your low back, how sciatica really works, why hamstring tightness is often a strength issue, and what runners need to know about hip impingements.In this episode, we cover:Why glute pain is often misdiagnosedHow low back and SI joint issues can refer pain into the gluteThe difference between true sciatica and general nerve-related painWhat to do for hamstring tightness and hamstring injuriesWhy stretching isn't always the answer for hamstring painThe best strength exercises for healthier glutes and hamstringsHow range of motion, control, and strength all play a role in injury preventionWhy heavy strength training matters for building more resilient runnersSHOW LINKS:Register for our 100K or 50K race, Desert Peak Ultra, by going to desertpeakultra.comWant to be coached by me and my team to crush your next ultramarathon in our 1:1 coaching program?

Coach Caroline and Coach Valerie talk about the “day two runner” and why the average recreational runner needs a different kind of coaching than the elite or professional athlete. The conversation starts with the reality that major races are expanding and attracting huge numbers of everyday runners, which means more people need support, guidance, and a standard of running that is built around efficiency, injury prevention, and long-term progress rather than just chasing speed.Valerie explains why injuries have stayed just as common even as shoes, braces, and tape have improved, and why the real solution is not more gear but better movement. She shares how she went from running marathons in the eights to racing in the sixes after learning how to fall, accelerate, and train intervals correctly. The episode also covers the value of gait analysis, Zoom coaching, and check-ins, plus the importance of learning to activate the glutes and hamstrings so the hip flexors do not do all the work.Key takeawaysRecreational runners need a different coaching approach than elite or professional runners.More gear has not solved the injury problem; movement quality is still the key issue.A standard of running helps every runner, no matter their age, pace, or distance goals.Learning how to fall and train intervals can improve speed without just working harder.Gait analysis, Zoom coaching, and regular check-ins help runners make faster progress.Hamstring and glute activation are essential because the hip flexors often try to take over.Coachability and repetition are what help movement become natural for life.Where to find us ▶️ Free 30-Day RunRX Reboot — Skill, Strength & Self-Care https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0N-GZ0AosI&list=PLDPcF8ZrDdILC8bYyn2zR-4xvqKRzp2re▶️ Join the RunRX Membership https://runrx.fit/join-runrxstrongWebsite: https://runrx.fit App: RunRx Academy — search “RunRx Academy” on Apple App Store or Google Play Support email: support@runrx.fit

Draymond Green didn't make people like him anymore after last night's appearance on Inside the NBA (5:58). The Knicks took Game 2 but lost OG Anunoby to a hamstring injury. He's questionable but Chris thinks they'll sit him on Friday and then wait and see for Sunday (13:10). Spurs evened things with Minnesota, Dylan Harper's emergence, Anthony Edwards injury, and what the Spurs did different. We'll also go into the NBA Draft Lottery and the slew of picks the Grizzlies have (24:00). Chris has a story about the music King William is listening to (53:22), there's a new ESPN NBA Mock Draft (1:13:23) and we'll talk about the new video from TMZ of Diana Russini and Mike Vrabel getting on a boat together while she's pregnant. Chris doesn't think Vrabel will survive this and won't be the Patriots coach by the start of the season (1:19:13)Host: Chris VernonContributors: Jon Roser, Devin WalkerTechnical Director: Jaylon WallaceAssociate Producer: Jena Broyles
Youth and Health Shape the Lions' Plan The Detroit Lions zigged in this NFL draft. Jeff Risdon sat down with Dr. Jimmy Liao on the Detroit Lions Podcast to grade the class through a medical lens. The theme was clear. Youth and health. Every pick landed at age 23 or younger. None of the 24-year-old prospects were taken. The shift tracks with recent lessons. Lower medical risk. Fewer known durability flags. Play the odds. Dr. Liao grades injury risk on a 1-to-10 scale. Younger players start lower. Age 23 and up nudges concern a bit. This class stayed on the low end across the board. It marks a turn from prior years when the Detroit Lions accepted more medical risk. In the NFL, availability matters. Detroit moved to stack it. Blake Miller's Ironman Profile at Clemson The top note was right tackle Blake Miller. Legendary durability at Clemson. He started 54 straight games. He logged 3,778 snaps, a school record. Dr. Liao set his medical concern at 1 out of 10. The only ding was a wrist surgery in 2024, with proof of recovery afterward. The worry there is longer-term stiffness, but his track record is strong. He is 22. That age keeps his grade low. Miller fits what the Detroit Lions want up front. Young. Battle tested. Clean enough medically to project early availability. He even graded as a top-three tackle target on the medical board. For an NFL team intent on protecting its quarterback and stabilizing the run game, this is a trend-breaking selection. Less risk. More snaps. Derek Moore's Hamstring and Second-Round Signal Next came Michigan edge Derek Moore. Before the combine he sat at 1 out of 10. A pre-combine hamstring strain bumped him to 2 out of 10. Hamstrings recur, and they spook timelines. Still, fast-twitch athletes almost all meet one sooner or later. The context matters. Detroit used a second-round pick on Moore. That signals the medical staff saw a minor issue. Dr. Liao moved him effectively back down to a 1 out of 10 after the pick. The Detroit Lions added a high-motor defender with minimal long-term concern. Recent examples of lingering hamstrings exist around the league, but the takeaway here was balance. Note the strain. Price the risk. Trust the file. The NFL demands it. On Deck: Michigan LB Jimmy Rolder The conversation turned to Michigan linebacker Jimmy Rolder. He drew a 3 out of 10 on the injury risk scale. He did not play a ton in college. That makes projection tougher, but it fits the draft's core theme. Younger players with manageable medical profiles. The Detroit Lions Podcast made it clear: Detroit targeted availability without sacrificing upside. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #2026nfldraft #lionsdraftclass #injuryupdates #detroitinjuryrisk #blakemiller #jimmyrolder #brianbranch #kerbyjoseph #jermodmccoy #levionwuzurike Learn more about your ad choices.
