Podcasts about return to play

This week on the Science for Sport podcast, Richard Graves welcomes Matt Parr back to the show for a deeper look at the work that really drives performance in elite sport. Matt is the Head of Athletic Performance at Leicester Tigers, a former professional rugby player, and the founder of High Performance Puzzle. Having worked across both rugby union and rugby league, including Leicester Tigers and Catalan Dragons, Matt brings a rare combination of playing experience, coaching insight, leadership responsibility, and high-performance strategy. In this episode, Richard and Matt explore the “invisible work” that sits behind successful performance environments. Not the gym programme. Not the GPS report. Not the testing data. But the conversations, decisions, relationships, standards, and judgement calls that determine whether the physical work actually lands. They discuss why data needs context, how performance teams can align with coaches under pressure, what good decision-making looks like when information is incomplete, and why trust remains one of the most important currencies in elite sport. For sports science, S&C, medical, coaching, and performance staff working in elite environments, this episode is a valuable reminder that high performance is not built by data alone. It is built through people, relationships, standards, and the ability to make good decisions when the pressure is on. In this episode you will learn Why the work that drives performance often sits outside the formal programme, session plan, or data report How conversations between coaches, medical staff, S&C, sports science, and players provide vital context What good alignment looks like in a high-performance environment How to manage differing opinions between technical and performance departments Why frameworks are essential when emotions and pressure start to influence decision-making How to make better decisions when you do not have the complete picture Why trust between the head coach, medical team, and performance staff is critical How to use data without becoming over-reliant on it Why standards often slip in small ways before they show up in performance outcomes How relationships can make or break the effectiveness of even the best performance systems Why gut feel still matters, provided it is shaped by experience and reflection How elite practitioners can reflect more effectively on their own decisions and behaviours Why discipline is a habit, not just a personal trait What Matt has learned from working across rugby union and rugby league Why the best players want honest feedback when standards start to slip About Matt Parr Matt Parr is Head of Athletic Performance at Leicester Tigers and founder of High Performance Puzzle. Before moving into strength and conditioning, Matt spent around 14 to 15 years as a professional rugby player, representing clubs including Sale Sharks, Saracens, London Irish, and Leicester Tigers. His transition into performance coaching began at Leicester Tigers, where he initially combined a player-coach role with S&C responsibilities before moving fully into the performance department. Matt has since built extensive experience across both rugby union and rugby league. After progressing through the performance setup at Leicester Tigers, he joined Catalan Dragons as Head of Performance, before returning to Leicester as Head of Athletic Performance. Alongside his role in professional rugby, Matt has launched High Performance Puzzle, a consultancy focused on high-performance strategy, systems, leadership, and integration.

Send us Fan MailOne of the biggest mistakes in ACL rehab is thinking that “return to play” means “return to performance.”Last week in Ottawa, I spent time with Matt Jordan diving into the use of force deck data, asymmetries, compensations, and how athletes often return to sport while still carrying significant movement adaptations underneath the surface.That's the challenge with ACL injuries. The knee is never truly “normal” again. There is a lasting proprioceptive change that athletes need to continue training and reconnecting to long after the rehab process appears complete.What I've seen over decades in sport is that unresolved compensations often become:• recurrent knee injuries• opposite side ACL tears• SI joint irritation• hip tightness• low back pain• movement inefficiency up the entire chainIn this EP, I spend some time just talking about some of the things we need to think about as practitioners if we want to create better outcomes.Enjoy!If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston. You can find all things LYM at www.LYMLab.com, download your free Life Lab Starter Kit today and get busy living https://lymlab.com/free-lym-lab-starter/Please take the time to visit and connect with our sponsors, they are an essential part of our success:www.ReconditioningHQ.comwww.FreePainGuide.com

Topics: Ben fills us in on his post-doctorate to date and what we can expect moving forward. What is ‘match load'? What do we often overlook when it comes to match load? Ben talks about a framework to clarify the construct of match load. What is ‘density ' in practice? How accurate is the data we are getting? How do we include all this information in our rehab systems? Advice around rehabilitation for those without GPS units What do we mean by injury-specific metrics, and how might this be something that can be applied in practice moving forward? What are we missing in our current rehab RTP models in sport of recent times? Individual factors to account for the return to play process. Position demands and rolling windows. What is the post-rehabilitation phase and how can we minimise subsequent injury here? When does rehab actually stop (by definition)? One specific change Ben has made to his rehab system based on his research that other practitioners could implement tomorrow? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8WqG4C79Ws References: Ben is undertaking a Professional Doctorate at the University of Central Lancashire, evaluating rehabilitation procedures in professional football.   Ben Post Doc Papers: Match load as a construct in professional football: complexities and considerations  Evaluating rehabilitation and return to play procedures in male professional football: A narrative review.

“The athlete's job is to stay consistent with rehab and to be hungry to get back on the field. I think our job as a sports medicine team is to make sure that they're safe and that they can perform.” In this episode of BackTable MSK, guest host and sports medicine physician Dr. Larry Balle joins physical therapist/athletic trainer Andy Glidewell to discuss how “return to play” is defined and why it is often misunderstood among athletes, coaches, physicians, and rehab teams. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction 04:25 - Return to Play from the Lens of Physical Therapy vs. Sports Medicine12:11 - Evidence-based vs. Anecdotal-based Practice for Return to Play21:18 - Is there an Appropriate Team Approach? 24:25 - Continuing Conservative Management vs. Surgical Intervention34:01 - Notes on a High-Profile Sports Medicine Case40:20 - The Influence of NIL on College Athletics42:51 - Obtaining Objective Metrics for Clearance52:38 - Influence of AI on Return to Play Algorithms 57:11 - Final Takeaways --- More about this episode They emphasize that return to play is a milestone-based rehabilitation phase requiring clear communication, collaboration, and risk management, rather than rigid timelines or just “vibes.” The conversation covers how evidence and objectivity have shaped protocols (notably ACL timelines), the role of prognostic indicators in operative vs. non-operative decisions, and practical use of functional strength and agility reassessment. They also address pressures of working with elite sport and NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) considerations. Furthermore, they expand on how AI may inform, but not replace, the humanistic and team-based components of decision making. --- Resources Dr. Larry Ballehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/larry-balle-ii/ Dr. Andy Glidewellhttps://uamshealth.com/provider/michael-a-glidewell/ The Journal of Orthopedic and Sports Physical Therapyhttps://www.jospt.org/ --- BackTable Musculoskeletal (MSK) is the go-to podcast for musculoskeletal radiologists, interventional pain specialists, and orthopedic surgeons.

Michael Flomenhaft, Esq. is the principal of the Flomenhaft Law Firm PLLC in New York, New York. His practice focuses on trying cases for victims of traumatic brain injury and severe chronic pain. Renowned for his vast knowledge of neuroscience—including neuroimaging, neuropsychology, neurobiology, and the neuroanatomy of chronic pain—Mr. Flomenhaft serves on the board of advisors for the Center for Neuroscience and Law at Fordham Law School and was a director of neurolaw for the Program for Imaging and Cognitive Sciences at Columbia University. He is a graduate of Boston University School of Law and the Trial Lawyers College.In this second conversation with attorney Michael Flomenhaft, host Bethany Lewis dives deeper into the most challenging aspects of concussion recovery and litigation. They begin by tackling the difficult subject of malingering—why it is often alleged, how objective imaging and biographical evidence can refute it, and why standard MRIs are insufficient for visualizing white matter damage. Michael explains why traditional concussion return-to-play protocols are "gray matter protocols" applied to a white matter injury, leaving athletes at unrecognized risk. The discussion then shifts to chronic pain, its atrophic (brain-shrinking) effects, the role of specialists like osteopaths and craniosacral therapists for headache relief, and the powerful potential of neurofeedback in brain rehabilitation. This episode provides essential education for anyone navigating the legal, medical, and personal realities of persistent post-concussion symptoms.Resources Mentioned by Michael Flomenhaft:Website: www.brainjusticeny.comEmail: mflomenhaft@brainjusticeny.comPhone: 917-359-8023Previous Episode (Part 1): Episode 134  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AU96lajw5oQ&t=240sImaging & Techniques referenced:Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (microbleeds)Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) – to visualize white matter injuryVolumetric MRI (to show brain atrophy over time)PET scansQuantitative Electroencephalography (qEEG)Neurofeedback (recommended as a top intervention for leveraging Connect with Bethany:Website: https://theconcussioncoach.com/Free Guide: "5 Best Ways to Support Your Loved One Dealing with a Concussion" on the websiteFree Coaching Consultation: https://theconcussioncoach.com/free-consultation

What if play isn't something you earn—but something you return to? In this episode, we explore the final step of The Repair Practice: Return to Play—where life begins to feel alive again. After walking through wear, repair, and reinforcement, this episode brings everything together and asks a deeper question: who are you beyond what you produce? We explore: Why play can feel unfamiliar—even if you're surrounded by it The difference between work, productivity, and true play How schools and systems condition us away from play Why makerspaces might be the "new playgrounds" How play creates connection, creativity, and belonging Why play is essential—not optional If you've ever felt like life has become repetitive, heavy, or overly structured… this episode will help you reconnect with something lighter, more curious, and more you. Play isn't extra. It's what makes everything else worth it. Where life wears thin… we repair, reinforce, and return to play.

We continue The Return Series by reclaiming the kind of play we've quietly lost—the messy, inventive, low-cost, unscripted, and wonderfully human kind. Before, fun didn't need a plan, a fee, or a perfectly curated experience. We had long stretches of unstructured time where we invented games, rode bikes until the streetlights came on, and negotiated rules as we went. We could be silly, make a mess, or create something that would vanish in an hour—and that was enough. Today, play is often optimized, scheduled, and monetized. We feel pressure to perform, to buy the “right” equipment, or to capture a perfect moment. In this episode, we explore how to go back. We'll talk about giving ourselves blank afternoons, embracing low-cost joy, letting our homes and hobbies get messy, being silly without an audience, and doing things just for the sake of doing them. This is a guide to rediscovering play that's freeing, accessible, and fun—reminding us that joy doesn't need a plan, a payoff, or perfection.

Ready to trade rigid rules for a smarter return-to-sport plan? We walk through a groundbreaking consensus published in BJSM that maps a postpartum pathway for soccer players—and any active mom—built on real-world variables: medical red flags, mental health, pelvic symptoms, sleep, stress, and the demands of life with a newborn. Instead of a one-size-fits-all protocol, this framework offers seven clear stages, plus field-tested progressions from non-contact drills to match conditions, all co-signed by clinician and athlete to keep you at the center of decisions.We also tackle the nuanced role of GLP-1 medications. Higher BMI can increase pelvic floor load and low-grade inflammation, so clinically guided weight loss may help symptoms, even as data continue to evolve. We unpack the buzz about “GLP-1 vagina,” explain why fat loss can change labial appearance regardless of method, and highlight what matters most: preserving muscle with resistance training, fueling well despite appetite changes, and looping in your pelvic health provider so your plan is coordinated, safe, and effective. Preconception and postpartum timing, PCOS considerations, and realistic expectations for weight changes during pregnancy all get careful attention.Finally, we reset expectations around postpartum pelvic changes. Vaginal opening, urethral mobility, and transient heaviness often reflect normal adaptation, not failure. We explain how to interpret symptoms without panic, when to seek assessment, and how to progress load like you would any high-performing system. Strength training isn't optional—it's the throughline that supports your pelvis now and into menopause, reducing symptom burden as you age.If this conversation helps you feel seen, stronger, and better equipped for your comeback, share it with a friend, subscribe for weekly science-backed guidance, and leave a review so more active moms can find it.

This week, host Richard Graves welcomes Steven Nightingale, Sports Scientist with the New Jersey Devils (NHL), to explore the realities of managing workload, performance, and recovery in one of the world's most demanding sporting environments. From starting out in Peterborough to working in China, Russia, and now in the NHL, Steve shares his fascinating journey through elite sport, and how data, experience, and practical collaboration with coaches all come together to optimise athlete performance. They dive deep into how workload is managed across an 82-game season, the impact of fixture congestion and travel, and the evolving role of data and AI in shaping the future of sports science. In this episode, you'll learn: * How Steve's career took him from teaching in England to sports science roles across China, the KHL, and the NHL. * What workload management really means in professional ice hockey, and why it's misunderstood. * How the Devils balance recovery, readiness, and tactical demands across a relentless schedule. * The challenges of measuring true intensity and how Steve uses Z-scores and T-scores to make data meaningful for coaches. * Why less distance covered can actually correlate with winning more games. * How travel, sleep, and recovery all factor into athlete performance across an 82-game season. * The future of data analysis, including AI's growing role in sports science. About Steven Nightingale Steven Nightingale is a Sports Scientist with the New Jersey Devils in the NHL and is currently completing his Doctorate in Applied Sport and Exercise Science.

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.

This week on the Science for Sport podcast, host Richard Graves welcomes back Michael Carolan, a performance coach and subject lead in sport rehabilitation at the University of Salford. With nearly two decades of experience across elite sport, the military, and education, Michael shares a refreshingly honest and deeply practical perspective on what it really means to coach athletes through injury and recovery. Whether you're a coach, therapist, or performance practitioner, this episode offers a wealth of real-world insights you can apply immediately. In this episode, you'll learn: Why rehab should be treated as coaching, not just therapy How communication and trust are at the heart of effective injury recovery The mental toll of injury, and how to keep athletes feeling connected and valued Why protocols are useful, but experience and adaptability matter more How to “train around injury” and keep performance progressing The role of environment, load tolerance, and coaching cues in recovery How elite recoveries (like NFL star Aaron Rodgers') can mislead athletes Why Michael teaches his students to “get miles on the soul” through experience How to filter hype, stay objective, and build athlete autonomy Michael's no-nonsense, athlete-first approach is as insightful as it is relatable, combining science, coaching, and a human touch in every decision he makes. About Michael Carolan Michael Carolan is a highly experienced performance coach and academic specialising in sport rehabilitation. He is the Subject Lead and Programme Lead for Sport Rehabilitation at the University of Salford, where he teaches and mentors future practitioners while supporting clinical practice through partnerships with organisations like the PFA and Salford City Council. With a background spanning elite athletics, rugby, professional football, and the British military, Michael brings a unique blend of hands-on coaching, clinical rehab, and academic insight. He continues to work directly with athletes across the world, from youth sprinters to pro footballers, helping them navigate injury and return stronger than before.

In this episode of The Mental Performance Mastery Podcast Reflect & Refocus, Brian discusses what Mental Performance Coaches can do to help their athletes return to play from injury. In this episode Brian shares 10 ways you can help your athletes during a return to play from injury. 1. Goal Setting for Rehab Progress: Encourage them to set specific, measurable, and realistic goals related to their rehab progress, focusing on what they can control. This keeps them motivated and provides structure. 2. Visualization and Imagery: Teach the athlete to use mental imagery to “rehearse” their sport. Visualizing movements, techniques, and successful performances can help maintain muscle memory and increase mental toughness. 3. Mindfulness and Meditation: Introduce mindfulness techniques to help them stay present and manage the emotional challenges of being injured. It can improve emotional regulation, reduce stress, and improve focus during recovery. 4. Developing Self-Awareness: Use journaling or reflective practices to increase their awareness of their mental and emotional states. This can help them understand their mental habits and areas for growth. 5. Positive Self-Talk: Help the athlete develop a positive internal dialogue, even during challenging times. This reinforces resilience and combats negative thoughts associated with injury. 6. Cognitive Restructuring: Teach them how to reframe negative or unproductive thoughts (e.g., “I'm missing out” to “I'm using this time to build mental strength”). This fosters a growth mindset. 7. Confidence Building: Work on confidence by reviewing past successes, identifying strengths, and setting small, achievable mental goals. This helps them regain belief in their abilities during recovery. 8. Resilience Training: Encourage mental toughness training by discussing setbacks as opportunities for growth. Use adversity stories or case studies from other athletes who've overcome injury. 9. Maintaining Team Connection: Encourage them to stay involved with the team, whether by attending practices, engaging with teammates, or taking on a mentorship role. This keeps them connected and mentally engaged. 10. Focus on Skill Development: Work on building mental skills such as focus, concentration, and emotional regulation. Use this time to train these areas, as they will be useful when they return to competition. Each strategy helps the athlete stay mentally sharp while navigating the psychological challenges of injury recovery. Brian Cain, MPM, the World's leader in Mental Performance Coaching brings you practical tips you can use as a mental performance coach to help your athletes close the gap from where they are to where they want to be and to maximize their potential.

Imagine this scenario…you're watching a sporting event, and an athlete gets injured. Maybe it's something minor like a sprained ankle, or maybe something more severe like a hamstring pull or ACL tear. Have you ever wondered, what does the medical staff do right then?

Gynecological surgeries are extremely common. More 600,000 women get a hysterectomy each year in the US alone, and more than one-third of women will have had one by age 60. And often a woman is told that she's “good to go” after a few weeks, when in reality, when it comes to her sport, she's anything but, and she can struggle for months–or longer–because no one properly helped her rehab to return to powerlifting, doing double-unders, running 13 miles, or many of the activities we take for granted as part of regular life. That's where this week's guest, Dr. Jocelyn Wallace comes in. Using her professional as well as personal experience, Jocelyn devotes her practice to helping women rebuild strength after surgery and bridge the gap back to their active and athletic lives without prolapse, pain, or peeing themselves. We talk all about her work there as well as dealing with common pelvic health concerns, especially pain and incontinence.Jocelyn Wallace, PT, DPT, CF-L2 is a pelvic health physical therapist who helps women get back to the things they love after gynecological surgeries, specializing in hysterectomy, myomectomy, and excision surgery recovery. She has firsthand experience navigating recovery as an athlete, having her first open myomectomy a few weeks after her first powerlifting meet. After seeing how little support is given to women after major abdominal surgery, she vowed to fill that gap. Since then, she has had 2 more abdominal surgeries, with 54 fibroids removed, and is a Level 2 CrossFit Trainer, combining the skillsets of physio + fitness to help women fully return to their active lives.
