Most people are told a torn meniscus needs surgery to "clean it out". But in this episode, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jason Snibbe tells me that roughly 30% of those patients end up needing a full knee replacement within three to six months, because the cleanout itself is trauma that speeds up the joint's breakdown. Instead, he uses a simple platelet-rich plasma injection that gets many patients 70 to 80% better from a single shot, sending them back to tennis and golf without ever going under the knife. As he put it to me, "I don't operate on your MRI, I operate on how you feel." We also get into "prehab," why your knee pain often starts in your hip, how robotic surgery spares the muscle older methods destroy, and why his patients are walking within an hour of a joint replacement.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Shoulder Pain? SHOWUP20 for 20% off Prehab Guys exercise library for training clients in pain w/ the CCA program. Shoulder pain is everywhere in fitness, and the fastest way to lose trust is to improvise “rehab” when you should be screening, referring, and coordinating care. We walk through what it looks like to stay in your lane as a personal trainer while still delivering real value for clients dealing with shoulder pain, past shoulder surgery, or limited overhead range of motion. If you want a practical playbook for training around pain without pretending to be a clinician, this conversation is built for you.We share how we think about shoulder screens, what movement checks help us decide whether training is appropriate, and why a strong relationship with a physical therapist changes everything. You'll hear a real-world handoff example of an older client with a complicated shoulder history, plus how we communicate so the client is supported instead of bounced between opinions. We also talk candidly about professionalism, pricing, and why skilled training paired with PT collaboration is worth more than generic workouts.Then we get tactical: how we use a prehab exercise library to choose smart correctives, how we assign simple homework, and how we build a shoulder-friendly circuit template that progresses from easier to harder work. We cover push-up regressions, rowing choices like bands and TRX, a more shoulder-friendly split stance overhead press, and how to swap movements quickly when something flares up. You'll leave with clearer programming principles for shoulder health, rotator cuff tolerance, scapular control, and strength training that respects pain signals.If this helped, subscribe, share it with a trainer friend, and leave a quick review so more coaches learn how to train shoulders safely.

If you've been living with back or neck pain for a while, and now spine surgery is part of the conversation, it can feel overwhelming, especially when you're trying to decide between disc replacement and spinal fusion. You may find yourself searching for answers, reading other patients' stories, and wondering what the right decision actually is. In this episode of Get Back to Your Life®, VSI spine surgeon Dr. Colin Haines and physical therapist, Larry Grine, break down how these decisions are made, what makes someone a candidate for disc replacement vs. fusion, and what patients can expect throughout the recovery process. You'll learn: The key differences between Disc Replacement and Spinal Fusion How anatomy, lifestyle, and long-term goals influence surgical decisions Specialized methods that lead to smoother recovery and better outcomes What to expect after spine surgery, from early movement to returning to daily activities How a coordinated surgeon + physical therapy teamwork approach supports long-term success If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what to do next, this conversation will help you move forward with more clarity and confidence.
Preventing Injury, Reframing Pain, and Using Physical Therapy to Avoid Unnecessary Surgery: Dr. Tom Walters is a board-certified orthopedic physical therapist, founder of Rehab Science, and author of “Rehab Science: How to Overcome Pain and Heal From Injury,” an illustrated, body-region guide to common orthopedic problems and self-managed therapeutic exercises. Walters emphasizes using PT-style mobility and resistance training preventively to increase tissue capacity, manage load, and avoid overuse injuries, while warning against “no pain, no gain” and excessive volume or weight. He discusses “movement literacy,” hip and glute stabilizers, and how weakness can drive knee and back problems. Dr. Hoffman shares his own hip injury and recovery with targeted strengthening, illustrating that imaging findings often don't dictate function. Walters explains the biopsychosocial model of pain, graded exposure, the limits of RICE and ultrasound, and roles for manual therapy, taping, TENS, shockwave, acupuncture/dry needling, and PRP. They advocate prehab/rehab around surgery and note PT training and career prospects.
Dr. Carol and Kim Pittis discuss Kim's new clinic work with an unusually outcome-focused orthopedic surgeon and the importance of tracking "end results" in patient care, referencing Dr. Codman's philosophy and how managed care shifted medicine away from long-term follow-up. They explore perioperative gaps, emphasizing prehab, patient empowerment, sleep, protein and vitamin C, and using FSM to address fear, stress, pain, and recovery, including early post-op use with electrodes or magnetic pucks. They answer questions about latent TB exposure and knee "bone on bone" pain (noting MRI for cartilage/meniscus assessment and published cartilage-thickness papers), postpartum healing with EDS and wound healing, topical melatonin in DMSO/emu oil, and rethinking "dehydrated" nervous tissue as inflammation/secretions issues. They share an animal success story, discuss why FSM spreads via reproducible results and training, and mention upcoming dentistry and Switzerland presentations. 00:00 Unicorn Surgeon Praise 00:57 Podcast Intro and Updates 01:23 New Clinic and Flow State 03:00 Outcome Focused Surgery Team 04:40 Codman and End Result Idea 08:53 Prehab Before Surgery Gaps 11:32 Empowering Patients to Heal 16:40 Post Op Guides and FSM Use 21:08 Clinic Life and Q&A Setup 21:51 TB Exposure and Knee Pain Q&A 28:07 Lung Scarring Limits 29:39 Latent TB Drive By 29:51 Postpartum EDS Healing 32:38 Topical Melatonin Blend 34:39 Why FSM Isn't Everywhere 39:02 Evidence And Sports Adoption 45:28 Animal Success Stories 49:36 Hydration And Nerve Function 53:03 Vet Applications And Wrap Up

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Pickleball elbow can sneak up on you fast, then hang around for months and make every grip, lift, or backhand feel like a mistake. We sit down with Dr. Rosh from The Prehab Guys to get precise about what's actually happening with lateral elbow pain, how to test it confidently, and why “tendonitis” isn't the best label for most cases of tennis elbow and pickleball elbow.https://pro.theprehabguys.com/checkout/annual-access?coupon=SHOWUP COUPON CODE SHOWUPWe walk through the practical diagnosis process you can use right away: palpation at the lateral epicondyle, Cozen's test, pain-free grip strength, and the wrist extensor stretch that actually targets the tissue by adding forearm pronation. Then we zoom out to the common traps that keep people stuck, including workload spikes, returning to racquet sports too quickly, and technique that turns the forearm into the main power source. We also cover when lateral elbow symptoms may be coming from somewhere else, including cervical radiculopathy or radial nerve irritation, so you know when to refer out instead of guessing.On the treatment side, we map out a clear rehab strategy built around education, unloading, reloading, and prevention, with starter isometrics, progressions toward isotonics, and smart ways to use soft tissue work, flossing, and bracing as symptom tools rather than “the cure.” We also get honest about injections: why cortisone can feel great short term yet backfire over a 6 to 12 month tendinopathy timeline, and what the current evidence says about PRP and other orthobiologics. If you're a trainer, you'll also hear how to build trust, reduce fear, and use a movement library to support clients between sessions.Subscribe for more evidence-based coaching conversations, share this with a friend dealing with elbow pain, and leave a five-star review if it helped.

Biomechanist Katy Bowman and biologist Dr. Jeannette Loram explore the prevalence and underlying causes of knee issues, from popping and noisy knees to everyday pain and osteoarthritis. The knee is not just a simple hinge, and Katy explains its anatomy using a helpful “cube” model that includes bones, ligaments, cartilage, and the meniscus. Together, they clarify the difference between osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis and examine how movement patterns influence the forces and loads placed across the knee joint. Katy and Jeannette share practical strategies for changing knee loading through gait retraining, along with tools to improve muscle strength, stability, and proprioception to help protect ligaments and cartilage. They also discuss why women tend to experience more knee problems due to hormonal and biomechanical factors, and why prehab and post-surgery exercise training play a critical role in achieving better outcomes after knee surgery.Enhanced Show Notes and Full Transcript 00:00 Introduction: The prevalence of knee issues and arthritis 02:00 Why movement and position matter for knee health 04:08 Sponsors: The Dynamic Collective 05:58 The knee as a “cube,” not just a hinge 10:58 Ligaments vs muscles: Why ligaments are seat belts, not brakes 14:20 Cartilage and the knee meniscus: Function and damage 18:00 Changing movement patterns for knee pain: Gait retraining 24:21 Noisy knees explained 26:22 Knee instability: Strength, proprioception, and hypermobility 33:07 Listener question: Why do women have more knee issues?

Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.comIf you are only focusing on building muscle, you are missing half the equation for long-term mobility. In this mashup episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon brings together top orthopedic experts to discuss the critical importance of joint and tendon health.While muscle develops relatively quickly, your tendons and ligaments can take 6 to 9 months to fully adapt to a new training stimulus. This gap is where most injuries happen. We dive deep into the biological mechanics of tendons, the"athletic accommodation timeline," and why you must progressively overload your connective tissue—not just your muscle bellies.You will learn:The Menopause Connection: Why women face a 30% higher risk of arthritis and rapid bone loss after age 50, and the role of estrogen in joint inflammation.Osteoporosis Prevention: Why high-impact "flight" exercises (jumping) are more effective for bone density than traditional lifting alone.The Frozen Shoulder Mystery: How to identify the warning signs and why this condition is often linked to hormonal shifts rather than trauma.Injury Recovery & Prehab: The truth about PRP, needle tenotomy, and the "anti-fragility" mindset needed to build a resilient body.The History of Muscle: How ancient Greek views of "pneuma" and the "gift of strength" shaped our modern misunderstanding of movement.Stop training until you break.

In this episode, Joanne and Paul explore why prehab, not rehab, is the missing foundation in modern fitness, functional training, mobility and long-term movement health. If longevity matters to you, how you move now matters more than how hard you train.They unpack why so many people get injured while exercising, how fascia training and mobility work are often misunderstood, and why the body adapts to the shapes and stresses we repeat over time. From gym culture and sports conditioning to rehabilitation exercises and therapeutic movement, this conversation questions whether current training models truly support resilience, adaptability and whole-body intelligence.The discussion moves into somatic movement, micro movement medicine and the living fascial matrix. Joanne and Paul explore why linear thinking in training creates shear, restriction and injury, and why the human body is not built on mechanical levers but on continuous, responsive tissue. Drawing on decades of experience across physical therapy, rehabilitation, martial arts and movement education, they show how subtle, intelligent movement restores function far more effectively than force or repetition.This episode is especially relevant for movement teachers, physiotherapists, personal trainers, coaches and anyone interested in functional fitness, therapeutic exercise and longevity.

The last clinical corner article of 2025! Matt and Allie are back to discuss this month's article about a familiar topic: Prehab! This specific article is a literature review that gathers information from thousands of cases and reports covering controlled trials that compared treatments for total hip and total knee surgeries. Matt poses his monthly question to PT students listening, and describes the findings in the article.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Want to run more without getting sidelined by cranky feet and tight calves? We walk through a real client scenario—a 20-year-old cardio diehard who stacked three five-mile runs onto a week of classes—and show how to turn enthusiasm into a durable plan. You'll hear the exact warm-ups, strength circuits, and weekly progressions we use to build mileage safely, fix plantar fasciitis flare-ups, and keep motivation high.We start with the biggest injury driver most runners ignore: sudden volume spikes. From there, we map a simple progression rule of thumb, then layer in intensity with controlled tempos once volume settles. The foundation is strength built around running's demands. Day one is hinge-focused with hip thrusts, chin-ups, and deep landmine calf raises. Day two is squat-focused with low-impact jumps, heels-elevated back squats, and core patterns that train adduction and extension. Day three turns unilateral and frontal-plane, using skater hops with stick landings, single-leg RDLs, and suitcase carries on toes to blend trunk stiffness and foot strength. Throughout, we target the plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, soleus, tibialis anterior, and peroneals so every step gets more stable.We also get practical about tools and coaching. Footwear rotation, soft tissue mobilization with a barbell or lacrosse ball, and isometrics to calm tendons when symptoms spike. For coaches and ambitious self-trainers, we dig into anatomy-driven programming, progressive overload, and the career skills that make plans stick: clear cues, on-the-fly adjustments, and confidence that comes from mastering the fundamentals. If you're chasing bigger miles, stronger glutes, and fewer setbacks, this is the blueprint to build resilient legs and a steady training rhythm.Enjoyed the conversation and want more like it?

This episode is for you if you're having surgery or if you have a loved one undergoing surgery soon. We are going to learn how to optimize health prior to surgery for better recovery and better outcomes! Approximately 15 million Americans undergo some type of surgery each year, according to the American College of Surgeons.Rebecca Knackstedt is a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in implant-based and microsurgical breast reconstruction. She is currently an Assistant Professor in Plastic and Reconstructive surgery at Duke University. Rebecca completed her MD/PhD at Medical University of South Carolina where her PhD thesis focused on Vitamin D and inflammation. She pursued an integrated plastic surgery residency and microsurgery fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic during which she also became certified in Functional Medicine. Her research interests are prehabilitation for breast cancer, particularly for women undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.We learn:Prehabilitation is essential for optimizing health before surgerySurgeons often lack training in nutrition and pre-surgical careNutrition plays a crucial role in recovery and healing post-surgeryAlcohol consumption can negatively impact surgical outcomesProtein intake is vital for healing after surgeryPatients should be proactive in preparing for their surgical consultationsVitamin D levels are often overlooked but should be monitored carefullyMuscle strength is predictive of surgical recovery outcomesAvoid Boost as a nutrition supplement post-surgerySleep hygiene is important for overall health and recoveryConnect with Dr. Knackstedt:https://www.instagram.com/surgical_recovery/ https://www.youtube.com/@Surgical_Recovery#surgeryrecovery #recovery #surgerylife #health #surgicalaftercare #rehabilitation #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy
We love getting requests from listeners for podcast topics. This request came from geriatricians we met at the annual American Geriatrics Society meeting in Chicago. They wanted to know more about what a geriatrician should do in a pre-operative risk assessment. So we invited Vicky Tang and Houman Javedan, two geriatricians and leaders in the pre-operative assessment and prehab space, to talk with us. As is our style, we backed up to some bigger questions, including: -Why do patients need a geriatric assessment pre-operatively?-Why are our surgical colleagues asking us? Is it due to liability concerns? -Why do we do them? Recognizing we may have different motivations than our consultants (hint: stealth geriatrics) -How does the comprehensive geriatric assessment fit int? Do the 4Ms fit into pre-operative assessment if at all? (an entertaining disagreement ensued) -Must a geriatrician do this? -What is the Geriatric Surgery Verification Program? -What's the most important part of Many links from our guests below.

In this Mini Mikkipedia episode, Mikki dives into new research from Dr. Fuchs and Professor Luc van Loon on the critical role of protein and activity in preserving muscle during hospitalization. She explains just how quickly muscle mass can decline with bed rest or critical illness, why standard hospital meals fall short nutritionally, and how inadequate protein and energy intake accelerate muscle loss. Mikki outlines practical strategies—from protein targets and essential amino acids to simple activity or electrical stimulation—to help mitigate muscle wasting. She also highlights the importance of “prehabilitation” before elective surgery. Whether you're an athlete, a caregiver, or someone preparing for surgery, this episode offers valuable insights on protecting strength when it matters most.✨ Episode Highlights:Why muscle loss in hospital can reach 3% per day in ICU patientsThe role of protein intake (1.2–1.5 g/kg+) in slowing muscle atrophyHow energy balance influences anabolic resistance and recoveryPractical strategies: protein powders, amino acids, and even bedside activityThe case for prehabilitation before elective surgeryhttps://journals.lww.com/co-clinicalnutrition/fulltext/9900/muscle_preservation_during_hospitalization__energy.233.aspx Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

What if your doctor has been giving you all the wrong advice about aging, fitness, and longevity? In this eye-opening episode of Health Hacks with Mark L. White, world-renowned athlete and longevity advocate Brad Kearns (former top pro triathlete and author of "Born to Walk") joins the show for a candid conversation on how to actually stay young, fit, and injury-free into your 50s, 60s, and beyond. Prepare for some surprising truths: the "10,000 steps" rule is a marketing myth, focusing just on cardio might actually hold you back, and your pre-workout routine could be the most important training you'll ever do. Key Highlights: Rewriting Athletic Aging: Brad reveals how he successfully transitioned from a world-class endurance triathlete (destroying his body in his 20s) to a thriving masters high jumper and sprinter in his 60s—without chronic pain. Advice For Your Younger (and Older) Self: Why training for your "80-year-old self" beats short-term goals, and the ONE thing most athletes regret. Mobility Over Mileage: The critical role of strength, power, and especially balance in preventing falls—the #1 cause of serious health decline after 65. The Truth About Steps: The hilarious origins of the "10,000 steps" rule, and what research really shows about daily movement and brain health. Nutrition, Social Life & Sleep: Why animal protein and fruit should be your dietary cornerstones, how a bad relationship is worse than smoking for your lifespan, and why your phone is sabotaging your mornings. Put These Lessons Into Action: Start a Simple Morning Mobility Routine: Before reaching for your phone, spend even 5 minutes on basic movements or stretches to build resilience for years to come. Prioritize Strength and Balance Work: Add short, frequent resistance training—even just using stretch bands or stair sprints at home—to protect against injury and falls. Clean Up Your Nutrition: Shift focus to whole foods—think animal-based proteins and fruit—and ditch highly processed snacks for lasting energy and health. Reconnect Socially: Remember, a strong community and healthy relationships add as many years to your life as any fitness regimen. Respect Your Age, Strategically: "60 is the new 60"—don't ignore what your body is telling you; train smarter, not just harder. Follow-Up Challenges: Try a 1-Leg Balance Test: Can you balance 10+ seconds per leg? Practice daily and track your progress. Audit Your Pantry: Toss at least 3 processed foods this week. Technology Fast: Delay checking your phone in the morning until after you move. Don't miss this inspiring, practical episode if you want to break free from aging stereotypes and claim your strongest, healthiest years—no matter your age!
