Podcasts about Injury prevention

You've been told perfect form prevents injury and rounding your back will ruin your spine. But what if the real problem isn't the movement? What if it's fear, outdated advice, and expecting your body to heal like it's Amazon Prime two-day shipping?  We dive deeper into this in the latest episode of the Broads Podcast with strength coach Dr. Susie Spirlock.  We also chat about why “perfect form” doesn't exist, how to return to lifting after injury or chronic conditions like POTS and hypermobility, and why strength training is non-negotiable for women heading into perimenopause and beyond.  Dr. Susie Spirlock is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and strength coach with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science. She is Barbell Rehab Method certified, Precision Nutrition Level 1 certified, and a Pain Free Performance Specialist. She provides online rehab and fitness coaching and serves as an instructor for the Barbell Rehab Method. What's Discussed: (08:44) Why “perfect form” doesn't exist and how anatomy shapes technique  (10:15) Gradual exposure to load and why rounding your back isn't automatically bad  (12:08) Fear of lifting heavy and how graded exposure reduces injury anxiety  (14:00) Why fear predicts pain more than tissue damage after injury  (18:25) Junk volume, overprogramming, and how smarter structure drives results  (25:03) Why lifting advice from doctors lags 10-15 years behind research  (32:26) Strength training, menopause, and what happens to bone density if you don't lift  (48:43) Clickbait rehab content and how to spot black-and-white misinformation Check out more from Broads: Website: https://www.broads.app Instagram: @broads.podcast @broads.app Head to https://www.broads.app/broadscoach and apply for BroadsCOACH.

The injury cycle can feel like a game of whack-a-mole, with one nagging pain going away only to be replaced by several different issues elsewhere. For the injured runner, the path to lasting health and getting back to the pain-free running begins with the right diagnosis. Yet while that may sound obvious the reality of getting there can often feel far from straightforward.  On this week's episode we're joined by Doctor of Chiropractic Bryan Kent to explore why so many runners treat the same injury over and over without lasting success—and how shifting the focus to accurate diagnosis can break that cycle.  Bryan unpacks some of the common myths around dealing with injury and pain, laying out a path for runners to take on a more active role in their long term resilience by working alongside their care providers to create lasting results. So whether you've been stuck in the not-so-merry go round of injuries or are looking to protect against set backs on the road ahead, then this is the episode for you.  Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts Follow Bryan on social media for more tips on running injury free @forwardspineandsport

Episode SummaryIn this episode of The Athletes Compass, the team sits down with Siren Seiler-Viken—researcher, coach, and emerging voice in Hyrox performance science. From her early years as an elite dancer to national-level distance running and now competitive Hyrox racing, Siren shares how sustainability, intelligent planning, and aerobic development form the foundation of hybrid performance. The conversation explores the physiological demands of Hyrox, why running may be the most overlooked performance driver, how to balance strength and endurance without sabotaging adaptation, and why pacing strategy can make or break your race. Whether you're a competitive athlete or new to hybrid fitness, this episode delivers practical, science-backed insight on building performance that lasts.Key Episode TakeawaysRunning accounts for ~60% (or more) of Hyrox race time — aerobic development is foundational.Wall balls produce the highest physiological strain due to total-body demand + accumulated fatigue.Hyrox is primarily an endurance event with strength elements—not the other way around.Max strength matters—but mostly to raise your ceiling so race loads feel submaximal.Muscle mass can become a liability if it compromises running economy.A pyramidal or polarized endurance approach builds sustainable fitness.Double-threshold training can be effective for advanced athletes when carefully structured.Splitting strength and endurance sessions by 5–6 hours reduces interference effects.Pacing is critical—early overexertion can derail the entire race.Variation in endurance modalities (run, row, ski) supports durability and injury prevention.Hyrox's appeal lies in accessibility, inclusivity, and standardized global competition.Timestamps:00:00 – Injury Prevention & Mixing Modalities02:07 – From Elite Dance to National-Level Running07:57 – What Is Hyrox?

https://teachhoops.com/ Injury prevention is the "invisible" component of a championship season. While most coaches focus on tactical execution, the most successful programs are those that can keep their best players on the floor. Prevention starts with the RAMP Protocol (Raise, Activate, Mobilize, Potentiate) during every warm-up. Instead of static stretching—which can actually decrease power output—you should utilize dynamic movements that mimic the lateral slides, jumping, and sprinting required in a game. By preparing the nervous system and the joints for the specific stresses of basketball, you significantly reduce the risk of non-contact injuries like ankle sprains and ACL tears. Effective management also requires a sophisticated approach to Load Management. Modern sports science emphasizes the Acute:Chronic Workload Ratio (ACWR) to identify when a player is in the "danger zone" for overuse injuries. If you suddenly spike a player's minutes or intensity after a layoff, their risk of injury increases exponentially. Ideally, your acute workload (this week) should remain within a specific range of your chronic workload (the average of the last four weeks): Staying within this "sweet spot" ensures that athletes are building resilience without reaching a point of structural failure. Monitoring "Internal Load" through subjective measures like RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) can provide a low-tech way to track this in any gym setting. When an injury does occur, the focus must shift to immediate and evidence-based management. While the "RICE" method was the standard for decades, modern practitioners often favor the PEACE & LOVE protocol, which emphasizes long-term tissue healing over short-term inflammation suppression. Finally, a coach's role in injury management is largely about Return-to-Play Communication. There is often a disconnect between a player's desire to "play through the pain" and their actual physical readiness. Establishing a clear, objective criteria for return—such as "100% pain-free during lateral cutting"—removes the emotion from the decision. By working closely with athletic trainers and parents, you protect the athlete's long-term health and your program's integrity, ensuring that when they return to the court, they are fully prepared to compete at their highest level.

Lauriann is a musician turned LMT, turned researcher and author. She left the performance world after many years of working up to a hundred hours a week and being shoulder to shoulder with musical greats to find a tactile career that would bring more balance to her life. She went to a great massage school in Seattle, graduated, passed her exams, and never practiced as a massage therapist. Due to an injury in school and years of rehabilitation, Lauriann realized that she could not practice but wanted to help other therapists learn about preventing this from happening to them.

In this episode, Dr. Jenna Gibbs and Libby Ritchie join Lauren Lavin, host of the College of Public Health's student podcast at the University of Iowa, to explore the realities of pediatric agricultural injuries. They discuss why injuries remain the leading cause of death for Americans ages 1–44, how terminology like “incident” instead of “accident” helps shift the focus toward prevention, and what makes farm environments uniquely challenging for children. Grounded in both research and real farm experience, this episode offers realistic, culturally informed guidance to keep rural kids safe while still allowing them to grow, learn, and contribute. Episode ResourcesPediatric Agricultural Injuries: An Interview with Jenna Gibbs, Injury Prevention Research Center, College of Public HealthSafety Guidelines, Cultivate Safety“Accidents” vs Incidents Webpage, Marshfield Clinic Research Institute

Dr. Andrew Best is a professor at the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts where he focuses on evolutionary questions about human physiology. You can email him at andrew.best@mcla.edu.  His latest study was titled "Ultra Endurance Athletes and the Metabolic Ceiling." They looked at the maximum, sustainable amount of energy expenditure that can be done over a long time period. It answers the question, "what is the limit of human energy expenditure?" It's a metric that literally dictates how hard you can train. If you want sustainable performance, you'll love this episode.  Fan of the podcast? Support our partners! Thank you MOBO Board! Invented by renowned physical therapist Jay Dicharry, MOBO helps you stabilize your stance with an innovative rocker board that's set up on two fins. The design effectively forces you to drive your big toe into the board to improve your stability. I was pretty arrogant going into my first session on the MOBO Board. How hard can it be to balance, right? Well, I was humbled pretty quickly! Even if you're a good runner, better balance, stability, and proprioception is going to help you have a more powerful stride and prevent more running injuries. You'll learn how to improve the efficiency of the kinetic chain from your hip to your big toe. Because as Jay likes to say, it's not just how strong you are, but how well you use that strength. I was recently at a weekend physical therapy workshop (lol I was the only running coach) and learned how important (and rare) this simple movement is.

What if the aches and pains you've been told are “part of the job” actually aren't?In this episode, I sit down with Lauriann Greene, one of the most respected voices in injury prevention and ergonomics for massage therapists. She's been researching, writing, and teaching on this topic for nearly 30 years and is the author of Save Your Hands!: The Complete Guide to Injury Prevention and Ergonomics for Manual Therapists—a book many massage schools still recommend or require.We unpack some of the most common myths in massage education, including the idea that pain is normal, that good body mechanics alone will keep you safe, and that therapists simply need to push through discomfort. Lauriann shares the research behind injury rates in our profession, explains why injuries are multifactorial, and outlines what actually supports long-term career longevity for hands-on practitioners.We also talk about treatment room ergonomics, gradual workload increases, and how listening to your body is a professional skill—not a weakness. This conversation is grounded in evidence, experience, and deep care for the people doing the work.✨ At the end of the episode, we dive into a special listener Q&A with Lauriann, where she answers real questions from massage therapists about hands-on workload, tools, ergonomics, and practical ways to protect their bodies across a long career.If you want to keep practicing on your terms—and enjoy a full life outside the treatment room—this episode is a must listen.OFFER: Get 20% off the regular price of Save Your Hands! 3rd Edition with THIS LINKCONTACT LAURIANN:EMAIL: info@saveyourhands.comWEBSITE: https://saveyourhands.com

Email if interested at steve@teachhoops.com ⁠Teachhoops.com⁠ ⁠WintheSeason.com Visit https://teachhoops.com/ for comprehensive player safety resources, injury prevention protocols, and evidence-based strategies that help you protect your athletes while building competitive, physically prepared basketball programs. In this episode, we tackle a practical yet often debated question in basketball coaching circles: should you require or strongly encourage your players to wear ankle braces, and what does the research actually say about their effectiveness in preventing the most common basketball injury—ankle sprains? This isn't just a safety decision; it's a coaching philosophy question that involves balancing player preference, parental concerns, budget constraints, and your responsibility to minimize preventable injuries that can derail seasons and affect young athletes long-term. We explore the evidence supporting ankle brace use: research showing significant reduction in ankle sprain rates, particularly for players with previous ankle injuries who face dramatically higher re-injury risk, the biomechanical support braces provide during the constant cutting, jumping, and landing that basketball demands, and testimonials from programs that have implemented mandatory brace policies with measurable injury reduction. You'll hear counterarguments too—concerns about reduced ankle strength development, player complaints about comfort and restriction, the financial burden on families (quality braces cost $30-80 per pair), and questions about whether proper strength training and proprioception work might be equally or more effective for long-term ankle health. This episode provides practical guidance for implementing an ankle brace policy in your program: how to communicate the rationale to players and parents, whether to make braces mandatory or strongly recommended, how to help families afford quality braces through team orders or fundraising, what brands and models actually provide meaningful support versus cheap alternatives that offer false security, and how to integrate ankle strengthening exercises regardless of brace usage. We discuss the liability considerations coaches face, how to handle the player who refuses to wear braces, and whether different positions or player histories warrant different policies. Whether you've lost key players to ankle injuries and want to prevent future devastation, you're establishing safety protocols for a new program, or you're simply trying to make an informed decision about this common coaching question, you'll gain clarity on the role ankle braces should play in your injury prevention strategy. ankle braces basketball, basketball injury prevention, ankle sprain prevention, basketball player safety, ankle brace policy, preventing basketball injuries, ankle support basketball, ankle injury basketball, basketball ankle braces, injury prevention protocols, ankle brace requirements, basketball safety equipment, ankle strengthening basketball, preventing ankle sprains, basketball ankle protection, player safety basketball, ankle brace effectiveness, basketball injury reduction, ankle stability basketball, basketball anklecare, injury prevention coaching, ankle brace brands, basketball safety policy, ankle injury prevention, protective equipment basketball, ankle health basketball, basketball training safety, injury risk reduction, Wisconsin basketball safety, high school injury prevention SEO Keywords: Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Jeremy Bettle, a performance director and applied sports scientist, to dig into what actually moves the needle for performance, recovery, and long-term resilience.We cover everything from high ankle sprains and injury prevention to smarter load management, and why understanding stress, recovery, and tissue capacity matters far more than chasing random training trends.Dr. Bettle shares insights from years of work across the NHL, NBA, and international sport, along with how elite performance systems can — and should — be translated to non-elite humans who want to train hard, recover better, and keep doing this for decades.Sponsors:Rogue: https://miket.me/rogueBeyond Power Voltra 1: https://www.beyond-power.com/michael13Fitness Insider Newsletter: https://miketnelson.com/Episode Chapters:05:26 Discussion Kickoff: Injury Prevention and Load Management06:10 High Ankle Sprains in Professional Sports15:07 Load Management Strategies and Challenges38:11 Eccentric Training and Injury Prevention46:23 Muscular vs. Soft Tissue Injuries in Athletes47:49 Importance of Plyometric Work in Injury Prevention51:43 Isometric Exercises and Their Benefits58:12 Recovery Strategies and Their Effectiveness01:08:02 The Role of Communication in Team Sports01:15:55 Systematizing Athlete Routines for Optimal Performance01:22:52 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Episodes You Might Enjoy:Episode 314: Unlocking Performance & Recovery: IV Therapies & Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy with Jordyn PayneYouTube: https://youtu.be/qnJHcepDx1c?si=aTlDcFS6D77jq49DEpisode 325: The Uncommon Science of Cold: Brown Fat, Resilience & Recovery with Dr. Thomas SeagerYouTube: https://youtu.be/5ycoVRnLTuY?si=m-pgtYkkMcQhPUXJConnect with Jeremy:Vitality Collective: https://vitality-collective.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/VitalityCollectivePerformanceGet In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmiketnelson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn1aTbQqHglfNrENPm0GTpgEmail: https://miketnelson.com/contact-us/

This week on the Science for Sport Podcast, Richard Graves is joined by Brian Roy, a strength and conditioning coach who has spent the past decade working at the sharp end of action and lifestyle sports, including Olympic BMX Freestyle. BMX Freestyle is still a relative newcomer to the Olympic programme, but its physical demands, injury risks and performance challenges are unlike almost any traditional sport. In this episode, Brian shares his unconventional journey into elite sport, from personal training and postgraduate study to travelling the world with BMX athletes on the global stage. Together, Richard and Brian explore what it really takes to prepare athletes for a sport defined by explosive power, aerial skill, high-impact landings and constant travel. Brian offers a refreshingly honest perspective on athlete buy-in, bespoke programming, and why traditional strength testing and rigid systems don't always transfer to non-traditional sports. This is a fascinating conversation for sports scientists, strength and conditioning coaches, and anyone interested in how performance support adapts when the sport doesn't fit neatly into a textbook. In this episode you will learn * The unique physiological and biomechanical demands of BMX Freestyle competition * How to prepare athletes for repeated 60-second, maximal-effort runs across a full competition day * Why traditional strength testing and gym-based metrics don't always translate to action sports * How Brian adapted training around constant travel, limited gym access, and athlete preferences * Practical strategies for building resilience and reducing injury risk in high-impact sports * Why athlete buy-in often comes from listening, adapting, and being present rather than enforcing systems * How emerging video and motion-analysis technology could shape the future of training in BMX Freestyle and similar sports About Brian Roy Brian Roy is a strength and conditioning coach with over 10 years' experience working in action and lifestyle sports. He holds a Master's degree in Kinesiology and Exercise Science and is currently undertaking further postgraduate study in Applied Sports Science Analytics. Brian has worked closely with elite BMX Freestyle athletes on the international stage, including those competing at the Olympic Games, and has developed a reputation for adaptable, athlete-centred training approaches. His work focuses on performance, resilience, and real-world transfer rather than rigid adherence to traditional testing models. Brian regularly shares insights from his work on LinkedIn and Instagram, where he discusses training philosophy, emerging technology, and lessons learned from working in non-traditional sports environments.

With the Active Dogs: Fitness and Injury Prevention one day conference happening on Jan 10th, we took the time to sit down with 2 of the presenters to talk about what it means to keep our sports dogs in good health so they can play our games as long as possible.

Kevin Carr is an author, educator, and co-owner of multiple fitness businesses and brands, including Mike Boyle Strength and Conditioning (MBSC) and the Certified Functional Strength Coach (CFSC) certification.In this episode, Kevin joins Andrew Coates to have a candid conversation about the state of the fitness industry—and why, despite unprecedented access to gyms, information, and technology, the overall return on investment for public health remains shockingly poor.Rather than blaming individuals, Kevin explores the structural, cultural, and experiential barriers that prevent people from engaging in fitness long-term, while also highlighting the renewed importance of in-person coaching, community, and practical strength training as we age.In this episode, Kevin shares insight on:• Why massive investment in fitness has produced minimal population-level health outcomes• Why only 1 in 4 Americans have a gym membership—and why half quit within six months• Common misconceptions about gyms and why many people find them intimidating• How environment and culture shape whether people stay active or drop out• The importance of community and support for long-term fitness adherence• Why aging is not just an “old person's problem”• The idea of “aging milestones” where people quietly stop sprinting, jumping, or playing• Underrated movement qualities that matter more as we age• Why in-person coaching and gym attendance are seeing a resurgence• Practical approaches to reducing injury risk through smarter training• Why experience often matters more than credentials in coaching• And much moreCHAPTERS01:16 Fitness Industry Challenges02:38 Making Fitness More Accessible05:19 Creating a Welcoming Gym Environment15:04 The Importance of Community in Fitness23:53 Parental Expectations in Youth Sports29:28 Strength and Conditioning for Career Longevity34:32 The Impact of Modern Strength and Conditioning on Athletes35:52 Athletes Advocating for Their Health and Longevity37:13 Exercise Selection and Execution40:56 Injury Prevention and the Benefits of Strength Training42:18 The Importance of Lifelong Fitness48:37 Personal Reflections on Fitness and Longevity50:39 The Value of Practical Experience in Coaching01:02:58 Upcoming Events and ResourcesSUPPORT THE SHOWIf this episode helped you, you can help me by:• Subscribing and checking out more episodes• Sharing it on social media (tag me — I'll respond)• Sending it to a friend who's trying to stay strong, active, and engaged long-termFOLLOW ANDREW COATESInstagram: @andrewcoatesfitnesshttps://www.andrewcoatesfitness.comPARTNERS AND RESOURCESRP Strength App (use code COATESRP)https://www.rpstrength.com/coatesJust Bite Me Meals (use code ANDREWCOATESFITNESS for 10% off)https://justbitememeals.com/MacrosFirst – FREE Premium TrialDownload MacrosFirst → During setup, answer “How did you hear about us?”Type: ANDREWKNKG Bags (15% off)https://www.knkg.com/Andrew59676Versa Gripps (discount link)https://www.versagripps.com/andrewcoatesTRAINHEROIC – FREE 90-Day Trial (2 steps)Go to: https://www.trainheroic.com/liftfreeReply to the email you receive (or email trials@trainheroic.com) and let them know Andrew sent you

Want fewer injuries, better readiness to train, and athletes who can actually handle pressure?In this episode of Men Talking Mindfulness, Will Schneider and Jon Macaskill sit down with Chad McGehee, Director of Meditation Training at University of Wisconsin Athletics and co-founder of Inner Edge Meditation. Chad works directly with elite athletes and coaches to train attention, reduce injury risk, and improve performance—without adding more volume, stress, or drills.Together, they break down how mindfulness functions as strength and conditioning for the mind, why attention is involved in every rep and decision, and how short, consistent meditation practices are linked to better readiness, recovery, and resilience in high-pressure environments.You'll hear how Chad went from meditation skeptic to leading mindfulness inside a major Division I athletic department, how teams like Wisconsin Volleyball integrated daily practices, and why mental training supports both performance and mental health for athletes and coaches alike.In this episode, you'll hear:• How training attention supports injury prevention and recovery• Why mindfulness improves mood, energy, and readiness to train• How meditation helps athletes bounce back faster after mistakes• How coaches can introduce mindfulness without losing buy-in• Why the teacher's personal practice matters as much as the technique• Simple practices teams can use this weekIf you're a coach, athlete, parent, or leader who wants sustainable performance without burnout, this conversation is a practical blueprint.You'll walk away with:✅ A clear understanding of how mindfulness impacts performance and injury risk✅ Simple meditation tools for warm-ups, cooldowns, and meetings✅ Language to help skeptical athletes and coaches engage✅ Encouragement to treat mental training like physical trainingSponsor:Peptides for Health by Mark L.
