Our conversation picks back up with an article published just last month in AJSM titled “Player Tracking Metrics to Predict Risk of ACL Injuries During Change-of-Direction Scenarios in the NFL.” The authors analyzed 216 ACL injuries that occurred in the NFL from 2018–2022 to determine how player tracking data could help predict injury risk, particularly during change-of-direction or “CoD” plays. They found that nearly half of ACL injuries occurred during CoD scenarios, most often involving high speeds followed by rapid deceleration. The authors noted that 98% of players were decelerating at the moment of injury. Using synchronized video and player tracking, the researchers found that maximum speed and normalized maximum deceleration power were significant predictors of ACL injury risk. Additionally, special teams plays showed the highest rates of CoD ACL injuries, though when motion data were factored in, the elevated risk was better explained by player speed and deceleration demands rather than play type alone. These findings highlight the potential to use tracking metrics for real-time risk monitoring, improved prevention programs, and possibly even future changes to training or game rules to reduce injury risk.We're going to wrap up today with a study that is currently ongoing and not yet published. Funded by the AOSSM Playmaker Grant, this clinical trial is investigating the use of wearable muscle oxygenation sensors to improve return-to-play assessment after ACL reconstruction. Dr. Voos, Dr. Calcei, and their team at the UH Drusinsky Sports Medicine Institute have found that muscle oxygenation recovery lagged behind clinical clearance in several cases. Eight athletes did not regain normal muscle oxygenation even when they were deemed ready to return. These findings suggest that wearable muscle oxygen saturation monitoring may add a valuable physiologic layer to current return to play protocols, potentially predicting safer and more individualized recovery timelines.

On today's episode we're focusing on wearable technology for athlete performance, recovery and injury prevention with Dr. Jacob Calcei, an orthopedic surgeon at University Hospitals in Cleveland and team physician for the Cleveland Browns. We'll start off our discussion today with an article titled “Wearable Performance Devices in Sports Medicine” from the January 2016 issue of Sports Health. The authors review the rapid rise of wearable sensor technologies in athletics, highlighting their ability to track real-time physiologic and movement data for optimizing performance and reducing injury risk. These tools can provide valuable insights into workloads, biomechanics, and fatigue, supporting tailored training programs and early injury prevention strategies. While wearable devices have shown promise, evidence for their effectiveness in professional sports remains limited, and further research is needed to validate accuracy, develop standardized training protocols, and address practical challenges such as reliability and usability.Then, from the January 2020 issue of Sports Heath, we review an article titled “Does Overexertion Correlate With Increased Injury? The Relationship Between Player Workload and Soft Tissue Injury in Professional American Football Players Using Wearable Technology.” This study investigates whether sudden increases in training load, as measured by wearable GPS and accelerometry technology, are associated with higher rates of soft tissue injury in professional American football players. The authors analyzed two NFL seasons and found that injured players experienced significantly greater spikes in workload during the week of injury compared to the prior month. Specifically, they found that those exceeding an acute-to-chronic workload ratio (ACR) of 1.6 being 1.5 times more likely to sustain an injury. The effect was particularly pronounced in the preseason, when workloads were higher and hamstring injuries were most common. The findings suggest that rapid workload increases predispose athletes to soft tissue injury, while consistent training loads may offer a protective effect. The authors conclude that monitoring player workload with wearable technology could help medical and training staff design safer, more individualized training regimens to reduce injury risk.We are joined today by Dr. Jacob Calcei, a board-certified orthopedic sports medicine physician and shoulder surgeon at University Hospitals and an assistant professor of Orthopedic Surgery at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine. He is a team physician for the Cleveland Browns as well as several local high schools. Dr. Calcei has published extensively on a variety of sports medicine topics, has a particular interest in injury prevention and finding ways that we can make sports safer while optimizing athlete performance. So, we're very excited to have him join us today.
Club Plans & Personal Coaches: Adding An Edge? In this week's episode, host Richard Graves sits down with Daniel Booth, a performance coach who's worked inside elite teams (Watford FC, Ealing Trailfinders), across Olympic sprint programmes, and independently with top athletes, to unpack one of the hottest debates in high performance: Should athletes stick strictly to club schedules, or can personal trainers/physios/dietitians add an edge without adding risk? Drawing on experience from football, rugby, and Olympic sport, Daniel explains why tensions flare (mismatched philosophies, poor communication, asset ownership), what great collaboration looks like in the real world, and how high-performing organisations formalise outside support without losing control. What you'll learn * The real source of conflict between club performance/medical staff and external coaches, and how cross-sport thinking challenges “that's how we've always done it.” * A practical collaboration model: who shares what, when, and how (weekly data drops, post-match/flight recovery notes, and a single “central coordinator” to integrate inputs). * Risk vs. reward in load management: why living on the “edge” drives adaptation, and how to avoid double-loading athletes after intense sessions. * Contracts done right: how some teams formally write approved externals into player agreements and set clear, shared calendars. * International duty realities: why centralised models in rugby/cricket often outperform football's fragmented approach, and what football can copy now. * Case studies that translate: lessons from LeBron/Mancias and Mahomes/Stroop—how season-long regen blocks and role clarity reduce noise and improve availability. * Social media pitfalls: why chasing a “brand” erodes trust, and how word-of-mouth and discretion still win in elite environments. About Daniel Booth Daniel Booth is a performance coach with 10+ years' experience across elite football (Watford FC), rugby (including Ealing Trailfinders), and Olympic sprint programmes, as well as work with Warner Bros. Discovery. Now operating independently, he partners with clubs and national teams to deliver athlete-centred programming and is formally written into several Premiership rugby player contracts to act as the central performance coordinator, integrating club, country, and external inputs. Daniel's approach blends cross-sport best practice, honest communication, and low-ego, data-led decision-making focused on availability and longevity.

#87: [Inside the Mind] Lauren McMillin: Golf Yoga Misconceptions and Benefits and Going Barefoot to Play Better Golf If you're the golfer who groans at the thought of stretching or scoffs at the word "yoga," this episode is especially for you. Joining me today is Lauren McMillin—founder of YoGolf Performance and a certified yoga instructor who specializes in helping golfers move better, feel better, and, yes, play better. In this episode, Lauren dismantles the common excuses and outdated beliefs that have kept so many of us (especially men) from incorporating yoga into our golf performance routines. We explore how yoga goes far beyond flexibility. You'll learn how it improves spinal rotation (hello, more shoulder turn and distance), strengthens your connection to the ground (read: more power and balance), and trains your nervous system to respond rather than react—all of which translate directly to better performance on the course and faster recovery off of it. In today's episode, you'll learn: Why most golfers resist yoga—and why that's costing you distance, consistency, and recovery The most common myths and misconceptions about yoga (spoiler: you don't need to be flexible!) How yoga improves your swing, focus, and mental resilience What “movement modality” really means—and why yoga is the ultimate one for golf Simple, golf-specific breathing and movement techniques you can start using today How barefoot balance work can actually help you hit longer, straighter shots A quick pre- and post-round routine to boost performance and prevent injury The surprising sleep benefits of yoga—and how they help your game How to build a consistent yoga routine without a studio or 60-minute commitment Get your pencils ready and start listening.

If you've ever dealt with a nagging pain, an unexpected setback, or a full-blown injury that sidelined you from your training, you know how frustrating it can be. But what if you could reduce your risk of injury and keep running pain-free? Stick around, because today, we'll break down practical strategies to help you stay on track!Understanding Common Running Injuries]Runner's Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome) – Pain around or behind the kneecap due to overuse and poor biomechanics.Shin Splints – Inflammation of the muscles and tendons around the shin, often caused by increasing mileage too quickly.Plantar Fasciitis – A sharp pain in the bottom of the foot, especially in the heel, caused by tightness and overuse.Achilles Tendinitis – Inflammation of the Achilles tendon due to excessive stress and tight calves.IT Band Syndrome – Pain on the outside of the knee, often due to weak hip muscles and improper running form.Strains or muscle taresKey Strategies for Injury PreventionFollow the 10% Rule – Avoid increasing your weekly mileage by more than 10% to give your body time to adapt.Strength Training – A strong body is a resilient body. Focus on strengthening your core, glutes, and legs to improve stability and running efficiency.Proper Warm-Up & Cool Down – Start each run with dynamic stretches like leg swings and high knees, and end with static stretching to improve flexibility and recovery.Invest in the Right Shoes – Get fitted for running shoes that match your gait and replace them every 300-500 miles.Cross-Training & Rest Days – Give your body a break by incorporating activities like swimming, cycling, or yoga, and don't underestimate the power of rest days!Listen to Your Body – Pain is your body's way of telling you something is wrong. Don't push through it—address it before it turns into a bigger issue.

While most people regularly check their blood pressure or glucose, few consider routinely assessing their body's ability to move—and yet, this may be just as crucial to long-term health. Andrew Menter, CEO of Physmodo, joined Peter Bowes to explore the software company's mission to raise the profile of movement as a vital sign of good health. Andrew shares his personal journey from a career in law and finance to entrepreneurship in movement science, motivated in part by his athletic pursuits and the injuries that accompanied them. He discusses Physmodo's innovative use of computer vision technology, enabling self-assessment of mobility and posture via simple smartphone or tablet tools—making this once-specialized information accessible to everyone, not just elite athletes. He highlights the power of early intervention, the surprising ways movement influences sleep and mental health, and the growing importance of personalized preventive care.

Teaching yoga for over a decade has shown me that injury prevention is one of the most overlooked but essential parts of our practice. Yoga injuries don't usually happen in a dramatic fall or twist, they build up quietly over time when we're not paying attention. That's why in this episode, I'm sharing 10 straightforward, practical tips to help you avoid injuries and keep your yoga sustainable for years to come. These insights come from my experience teaching thousands of students and running a yoga studio for over ten years.Episode Highlights:Moving regularly and not relying on yoga alone for all your movement needsPrioritizing yoga fundamentals over chasing advanced posesAvoiding repetitive movement patterns and fast-paced sequencesLimiting hands-on adjustments and always asking for consentMatching class structure and pacing to students' needsUsing props intentionally to support and educateEncouraging strength-building, especially for hypermobile practitionersBeing mindful of how hormonal changes (like perimenopause) affect the bodyUnderstanding why hot yoga may not be suitable for everyoneExploring different styles of yoga to balance your practice over timeWe're Hiring: Join My Team as a Social Media & Digital Content Specialist (Remote, Part-Time) Join our mailing listFind all the resources mentioned in this episodeConnect with us on Instagram

This week's show brought to you by: Ketone-IQ You may have read a lot the last few years about the benefits of ketones for endurance performance, such as mitochondrial efficiency and glycogen sparing. Your body uses ketones for energy typically during fasting, long periods of exercise, or when you don't have as many carbohydrates. The problem is that you typically need to severely reduce your carbohydrate intake in order to take advantage of them, which is difficult to sustain, even for the most dedicated runner. But, thanks to Ketone-IQ you quickly deliver ketones to your bloodstream, putting you into ketosis within minutes without the need to fast, restrict calories or carbs, or exercise away your glycogen stores. And the academic literature on the effectiveness of ketones for running performance is overwhelming. For example, a 2021 study demonstrated that the ingestion of ketones improved mitochondrial efficiency by 7% and 2019 study concluded that using ketones significantly enhanced endurance performance while minimizing overtraining. If you want to see more of the research, head to ketone.com/RTTT Plus, for a limited time you can save 30% off your first subscription order & receive a free six pack of Ketone-IQ by going ketone.com/RTTT. That's K-E-T-O-N-E dot com slash RTTT. MAS NAD+ for Runners Did you know that by Age 40, your NAD+ levels can be half of what they were at 20? And they only go downhill from there. This is important because lower NAD+ levels have been shown in research to impact some of the hallmarks of aging such as reduced muscle strength, lower mitochondrial performance and overall energy. But, just because NAD+ levels decline with age doesn't mean you have to accept it. NAD+ from MAS Edge is a groundbreaking formula that can increase your NAD+ levels by 67%. Their unique formula enhances absorption by 71% and increases uptake and utilization in the body by 167% compared to generic NAD+ supplements. This means you can slow muscle loss, improve recovery, increase your energy levels, and fight aging at the cellular level. You can check out the results yourself at masedge.com/nad. Plus, runnersconnect fans will automatically save 20% on any purchase. If you're ready to fight all the typical signs of aging and feel a decade younger, this is no-brainer.
