Ahh the infamous glutes! Yes we know they are "always on" but we cannot deny that for some individuals they are not "on enough". Whether it's general population or the high level athlete this something that plagues individuals with LBP, hip, knee, ankle and even shoulder pain. In this episode we discuss what we see in the clinic, our progressions, tricks we use when for our most difficult patients, EMG studies, manual therapy and more!

We’re all pressed for time and need efficient, quick tools to increase energy and help us optimize our busy days. Here are two simple techniques that can provide rapid but effective ways of giving you a “wake up call.” One will give your brain a boost and the other will support your core for stability and injury prevention. Let’s engage your mind and energize your body whether it be for your next Spartan Sprint or Super! WHAT WE TALK ABOUT: a. Today’s world is more and more demanding. Some of us have two jobs, or maybe you’re taking night classes after work, starting families and raising children the list goes on and on… b. In this podcast I’m going to talk about what can aid in increasing our energy and helping us fight fatigue. I’ll discuss two different sensory stimuli: one olfactory (your sense of smell) and the other is a stretch which is physical but also engages your sense of sight. - First, your sense of smell: it’s a fruit, an essential oil, herbal tea: That is Grapefruit: it’s a juicy, bittersweet citrus fruit that’s a hybrid fruit created from the pomelo and the orange. It’s a good source of Vit C, lots of other vitamins and minerals but important for our chat right now…it energizes the senses! Grapefruit oil or its essence upregulates the CNS and stimulates the brain. Wakes us up! c. Second quick energy boost: Stretch Your Hip Flexors - This often forgot about muscle group will not only energize the body but it’s one of the most important muscle groups to help prevent falls and injury and improve balance. Helps ensure stability of the lower body, allows you to bend at the waist and bring your knee toward your chest -Sitting for extended periods shortens and tightens them. You should stand from your chair every hour to stretch them. - Simple stretches: lunges, if you have more space you can do a bridge (laying down, feet flat on the floor, arms flat at sides, push up using your glutes, thighs, and back. KEY TERMS & IDEAS: Combat low energy and fatigue with quick, simple tools that you can use anytime by engaging your mind and body for an effective result. Engage your sense of smell: use Grapefruit essential oil to stimulate and “wake up” when you feel sluggish. It can give your brain a boost and provide rapid but natural energy Engage your body and sense of sight: your hip flexors are one of the most important muscle groups to provide stability and a solid core. A hip flexor stretch improves circulation, helps prevent injury, and focuses your sense of sight while holding the pose and balancing the body for this important stretch.

Goal-setting can support your recovery from back pain and lead you to a better quality of life. Part 2 of this episode shows you proven techniques that help you in achieving what you aim for. + download your personal goal-setting sheet for free!!! Get your free Personal-Goal-Setting-Sheet here   Part 1 was about what you should aim for in your recovery:  Increasing physical activity1,2,3,4 improving sleep quality4,5 managing stress4,6  Now let´s dig in how goal-setting can help us in achieving that.  In their Article from 2002 Edwin Locke from University of Maryland and Gary Latham from Univerity of Toronto sum up the evidence about what science knows about the mechanisms of goal-setting.7 Goals affect performance through four mechanisms: direct attention and effort energizing function goals affect persistence, hard goals prolong effort (important for us, recovery process is a long term comittment) goals affect action indirectly by leading to the arousal, discovery, and/or use of task-relevant knowledge and strategies   To sum it up: "Effects of Goal-Setting are very reliable. Goal-setting theory is among the most valid and practical theories in organizational psychology."7 Those with high specific goals reach higher performance than those who tried to do their best. It´s not always that easy and we will talk about what research tells us, what is important in defining goals that help reaching higher performance. And thats exactly what we are looking for.   They further conclude:7 a goal should be specific, proximal goals should be added, proper use of learning goals should be made. What does this mean?   A general goal would be: Increasing physical activity. A specific goal would be: Increase walking distance up to 20 min a day. Translated into a proximal goal: Walk 20 min every day for one week starting today. And you could also add a strategy: Walk 20 min every day, before a get into the car driving to work starting today, or getting out of the bus-stop one station before my destinantion and walk there. Be creative!   So thinking about activity: Set specific Goals. Add a proximal goal and add a strategy   Be clear about why you are doing this! You are not doing this right now to become instantly pain free, you want to increase physical activity, increase quality of sleep and manage stress because in the long run that is what you will benefit from and as aresult will increase your quality of life.   Start with something that you are confident to achieve.8 No doubt there should be some challenge within your set goals. Sucess in reaching your goals will feed your confidence and step by step you can start set higher goals for your self. Goal setting is also about self efficacy, which means confidence in that you can achieve your goals. So thats a reward on it´s own, and we need that in roder to go on with our recovery.   Goals lead to higher performance when people are committed to their goals and receive summary feedback. And there are several ways you can enhance commitment. Through factors that make goal attainment important for you First of all write your goal down. Put your Goals somewhere where you can see them, so that you stay focused and you reflect upon them. Having an accountability buddy helps in multiple ways. The announcement to another person will raise the importance of xour goals for you and if you hold a weekly conversation where you report about your progress or difficulties you will have a fixed time to reflect upon your situation and this feedback will enable you to find better strategies to overcome difficulties.    Resource Section: Goal-Setting-Sheet Get your free Personal-Goal-Setting-Sheet here Set your goals for each day and at the end of the day reflect on them. Did you made it? Great! If not reflect about the reasons for it. Can you think of any strategy how to achieve your goal the next time you will be in the same situation? Could you ask someone for help if it is a time problem? Any strategy is better than no strategy. And by trying out new things you probably will come along with better and better strategies that will work for you.   If you are short on time, make it a 5 min goal. Maybe some stretching, or mobilisation-technique that you already know that you can do before you go to sleep.

8.1 Setting Goals to Boost Your Recovery from Back Pain - Part 1 What we should aim for in our recovery process and how setting the right goals can help us with that.   What to aim for The most effective treatments for low back pain include exercise or multidisciplinary rehabilitation (also see Episode 06). Passive treatments, on the other hand, have not been demonstrated to induce long-term improvements.1   Physical Activity and Therapeutic Exercise 2,3,4,5 This is what we know what will help in the long term. Increasing activity. Developing a set of active coping strategies.   Improve Sleep5 Improving sleep also makes total sense, since over 50% of people living with chronic pain suffer from depression and there is a strong correlation between quality of sleep and depression. And depression has an impact on your recovery process.5 "Presenting, persistent, and developing sleep problems have a significant impact on recovery for those with LBP"6  According to the "2015 sleep in america poll", making sleep a priority is linked to better sleep, even among those with pain. Setting the right goals has a direct impact on your life.7    Check out the videos of the national sleep foundation about sleep and chronic pain: Sleep and Pain: Beat the Cycle and Improve Your Sleep Today https://sleep.org/articles/sleep-pain-beat-cycle-improve-sleep/   Chronic Pain and Sleep https://sleepfoundation.org/sleep-disorders-problems/pain-and-sleep   What is Sleep Hygiene https://sleep.org/articles/sleep-hygiene/   Manage Stress5 Relaxation is an integral component of cognitive behavioral treatment programs for chronic pain.8 -formal interventions are for example: therapy, counceling classes, support group, relaxation techniques, meditation, yoga, breathing exercices, autogenic trainingcreative activity....- There is a lot of research how people living with chronic pain can benefit from meditation and relaxation techniques. Watch out for the next episode!   Part 1 of this episode examined what you should be aiming for in your recovery and why this is important. Part-2 will show you proven techniques that help you in achieving what you aim for. find out more on www.mybackrecovery.com  Literature:  Scheermesser M, Bachmann S, Schämann A, et al.

On this episode the guys review a clinical commentary on patellofemoral pain (PFP) written by Rich Willy and some moron (Erik and his dumb face). How should we best conceptualize PFP? Is Scott Dye's "envelope of function" accurate or even useful? Does this understanding change the way we treat this enigmatic diagnosis for the better? We break out the shorts and t-shirts as the temperature in Minnesota gets above 0°F! Current concepts in biomechanical interventions for patellofemoral pain. Willy RW, Meira EP.

Recommendations based on current available evidence helps you combine your personal experience and expectations with research to form an individual treatment plan and find treatments with the most promising results.   What treatment should I consider for my back pain?  There are many guidelines regarding LBP and some even especially for chronic LBP. In this episode you will find information about the treatment options often recommended in these guidelines.   Setting evidence into your personal situation After having examined all the best available evidence from systematic research it is important to know how to apply this information to your individual situation. Evidenced based treatment is more than simply the best available evidence from systematic research alone. It should also take into account the expertise of your clinician(s) as well as your personal expectations, beliefs and preferences!1,2,3   Treatment Recommendations with strong supporting evidence Information, education and self-care "All the guidelines explicitly underline the importance of educating and providing patients with information on LBP with regard to their expected course and the possibility of effective prevention and selfcare options."4 Physical activity and therapeutic exercise "There is strong evidence that physical activity and therapeutic exercise are effective for the management of CLBP, even if it is not clear what kind of exercise is best. An individual, graded and active exercise program supervised by an expert (physical therapist) is almost always recommended."4 Multidisciplinary treatment programs "Combined physical and psychological interventions with cognitive-behavioral therapy and exercise are particularly recommended for people who have received at least one course of less intensive treatment and have high disability and/or significant psychological distress."4   All other forms of treatment are currently categorized using the following descriptions: Might do - recommendations with moderate supporting evidence Don’t know - recommendations with limited or inconclusive evidence Don’t do - recommendations with strong evidence against intervention   For more information of other treatment options please refer to the original article which can be found via the Internet: "An updated overview of clinical guidelines for chronic low back pain management in primary care."4   Find out more: www.mybackrecovery.com   Literature:   Sackett DL, Rosenberg WMC, Gray JAM, Haynes RB, Richardson WS.
