He begins with an overview of bone mineral density, how it's measured, how it changes over the course of life, and the variability between sexes largely due to changes in estrogen levels. From there he provides insights into ways that one can improve bone health, from exercise to nutrition supplements to drugs. Additionally, Peter discusses what happens when one may be forced to be sedentary (e.g., bedrest) and how you can work to minimize the damage during these periods. While this original episode is an AMA, it is available in full to all listeners as a special rebroadcast. We discuss: Overview of bone health topics to be discussed [2:30]; Bones 101: bone function, structure, and more [6:15]; Bone mineral density (BMD), minerals in bone, role of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, and more [9:30]; The consequences of poor bone health [14:30]; The devastating nature of hip fractures: morbidity and mortality data [18:00]; Where fractures tend to occur in the body [23:45]; Defining osteopenia and osteoporosis [25:30]; Measuring BMD with DEXA and how to interpret scores [28:00]; Variability in BMD between sexes [35:15]; When should people have their first bone mineral density scan?

While the ancient neurodivergent mind behind microlith technology didn't leave us a written record, they did leave behind a legacy of precision, adaptability, and cognitive brilliance: the microlith!In this episode, George dives into the origins and spread of microliths — tiny stone blades that sparked a revolution in human toolmaking. Through a blend of archaeology and imagination, we follow a fictional neurodivergent innovator named Aru who sees what others don't, crafting the first microlith and passing that knowledge down through generations of clever, creative descendants.LinksWurz, S.

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I'm diving into the nitty-gritty of blood work and why it matters for your health, performance, and longevity, especially if you're an athlete, bodybuilder, or serious about your training.Fresh off the ISSN (International Society of Sports Nutrition) conference, I'm joined by Michael Warner, a sharp coach at Marek Health and the owner of Set the Standard. Together, we unpack some of the most important markers in blood work, how training and nutrition can influence your results, and how to actually interpret those lab numbers in the real world.We also discuss the importance of hydration, the context behind the numbers, and why proactive health monitoring should be an integral part of every performance plan. And yes, we touch on the impact of PEDs (performance-enhancing drugs) and what they can do to your blood markers.Whether you're optimizing for gains or longevity, this is a must-listen for anyone who wants to truly understand what's going on under the hood.Sponsors:Tecton Life Ketone drink! https://tectonlife.com/ DRMIKE to save 20%LMNT electrolyte drink mix: miketnelsonlmnt.comAvailable now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:00:16 Recap of the ISSN Meeting00:40 Guest Introduction: Michael Warner00:59 Importance of Blood Work for Health and Performance01:28 Personal Experience with Blood Work02:15 Basic Blood Tests and Their Accessibility03:19 Interpreting Blood Work Results03:37 Vitamin D and Lifestyle Factors04:08 Focus on Exogenous Compounds04:31 Sponsor Shoutouts06:48 Interview with Michael Warner Begins08:04 Blood Work in Physique Athletes08:57 Variability in Blood Work Results13:21 Blood Pressure and Easy Checks15:01 Proactive Health Monitoring15:48 Whack-a-Mole Lab Work19:11 Preparing for Lab Work26:33 Frequency of Blood Work29:45 Enhanced Athletes and Blood Work33:08 Risks and Rewards of Enhancement35:57 TRT and Personal Experiences38:18 Fertility and Performance Enhancing Drugs39:03 Introduction to Fertility Clinics and At-Home Sperm Tests40:27 Misconceptions About Testosterone and Fertility41:26 Essential Blood Work for Health and Performance44:26 Advanced Markers and Kidney Function46:25 Importance of Iron Panels and Sex Hormones50:16 Thyroid Panels and Additional Health Markers54:56 Merrick Health and Telemedicine Services01:04:22 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Flex Diet Podcast Episodes You May Enjoy:Episode 201: Coaching clients to look and feel their best: An interview with Lacey Dunn, RDEpisode 144: Peptides – Bleeding Edge Performance, Muscle, and Recovery with Dr. Andy Galpin & Dr. Ryan GreeneConnect with Michael:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mawsome_Website: https://marekhealth.com/Get In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

Today's guest is Hunter Eisenhower, Associate Head Coach for Sports Performance at Arizona State Men's Basketball. With experience in the NBA and NCAA, Hunter blends force production qualities, data analysis, and variability-driven human training methods to build explosive, adaptable athletes. He's the creator of the “Force System” and a thought leader in modern athletic performance concepts. Most athletic performance training is centered around outputs. Movement abilities and qualities are discussed, but there isn't much quantification process that goes towards an athlete's raw abilities, such as variable jump strategies alongside stiffness and compliance competencies. On today's episode, Hunter shares his approach to offseason prep using general physical means that build that “human strength”—developing capacity alongside movement variability. Hunter also breaks down how he quantifies an athlete's movement capacities and library, their ability to, balance rigidity and compliance in line with force plate data. We wrap with ideas on foot training and using variable surfaces to meet the demands of dynamic sport. This is a great look at training beyond just big lifts—into the true movement needs of the game.

Sometimes mental state—not just strength—dictates how long you'll last under tension. What to try: Program weekly “grit sets”: sandbag holds, wall sits, or dead hangs. Try them first thing in the session—before the brain can talk itself out of effort. Pair them with journaling or a quick “mind state” score: how'd it feel today? Let Hard and Fun Coexist in Your Program (6:00) Every session can't be a competition. But not everyone should be brutal either. Hunter encourages toggling between “suck” and “play.” One makes you tougher, the other keeps you coming back. What to try: Alternate between gamified partner drills and long isometric work during your week. Use athlete feedback: which days feel “engaging”? Which feel like “grinding”? Both matter. Build polarity into the week—not just into the periodization model. The Importance of Variability in Program Design (10:19) Sticking to one type of stimulus flattens the athlete's capacity. Instead, training should live across a spectrum—fun to miserable, slow to fast, light to heavy.

Christopher Bae is taking us on a journey to meet the hominids of Asia's past. Dr. Bae is a distinguished paleoanthropologist from the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa whose research focuses on human evolution in East Asia. Born in Korea and adopted by an American family, his unique personal journey sparked an early interest in race, human variation, and the deep history of our species. What began as a search for his own roots led him to a career dedicated to reconstructing the past—much like paleoanthropologists do when piecing together humanity's evolutionary story. Dr. Bae has conducted extensive field and laboratory research across Korea, Japan, and China, collaborating on projects that span hominin fossils, vertebrate taphonomy, and lithic analysis. His work bridges disciplines in the social and natural sciences, providing a comprehensive perspective on Pleistocene hominin morphological and behavioral variation, particularly in Homo erectus and both archaic and modern Homo sapiens. With approximately 150 publications and over $1.5 million in extramural funding, Dr. Bae is a leading voice in understanding human evolution in East Asia. ------------------------------ Find the papers discussed in this episode: Bae, C.

For questions about MS please contact our helpline 0800 032 38 39Spasticity and spasms are common MS symptoms that vary from person to person and can be challenging to understand and manage.  In this episode, we explore how these symptoms can feel with the help of our MS community and what you can do about them.  We asked MS specialist physiotherapist Wendy Hendrie to share her near 40 years of experience with us.  We are very glad we did, because we learned such a huge amount. In fact, so much so that we can almost guarantee you will too in the next hour.  And this know-how could make a real difference to the way you understand and approach your spasticity and spasms.  She breaks these complex symptoms down in a way that's easy to follow. She explores trigger factors, including pain – even pain you can't feel due to loss of sensation – bladder and bowels, posture and positioning including pelvis alignment and head movement. Plus exercise, night spasms and the importance of getting medication reviews especially if you haven't seen your MS team in a while.Episode notesSpasticity and spasms - MS Trust informationWhat do MS spasticity and muscle spasms feel like? - MS Trust informationManaging spasticity and spasms - MS Trust informationDownload or order our free book on Managing spasticity and spasms - MS Trust informationLearn what may be triggering your spasticity and spasmsThrower B et al.Recognition, Description, and Variability of Spasticity in Individuals With Multiple Sclerosis and Potential Barriers to Clinician-Patient Dialogue: Results From SEEN-MSS, a Large-Scale, Self-Reported SurveyInternational Journal of MS Care. 2024; 26 (2): 75-80SummaryPeer support: join our MS Trust Facebook community (public group)Peer support: join our Advanced MS Care and Support Facebook community (private group) Spoon theory explanation video

Free articles and courses about movement from Bill Hartman at http://uhp.network Episode 63 OverviewChris and Bill critically examine traditional motor control models in movement science, contrasting them with the Unified Health and Performance Continuum (UHPC) model. Their discussion challenges reductionist, brain-centric explanations of movement, advocating instead for an emergent, systems-based perspective that emphasizes adaptability, energy flow, and problem-solving in human movement. The episode is rich with practical analogies, clinical reasoning, and real-world examples to illustrate the limitations of conventional approaches and the strengths of the UHPC framework.Key Topics & Chapter Highlights00:00 – Introduction01:14 – Critique of Reductionism08:24 – Emergence and Complexity13:47 – Energy Flow and Gradients16:46 – Adaptation as Solution, Not Dysfunction18:19 – Integrating Tools, Rethinking Reasoning20:47 – Continuum of Health and Performance24:10 – Case Example: Knee Pain32:12 – Observation and Iteration33:53 – Systemic vs. Isolated SolutionsKey TakeawaysThe UHPC model views movement as an emergent, adaptive behavior shaped by energy flow, constraints, and systemic problem-solving-not just neural control or isolated muscle activation.Variability and adaptability are hallmarks of healthy movement; reductionist models that seek to eliminate variation can increase fragility.Practitioners should focus on expanding movement options and adaptability, using observation, questioning, and experimentation rather than rigid protocols.Structural adaptations are context-dependent solutions, not inherently dysfunctional.Effective clinical reasoning requires moving beyond static anatomical models and embracing complexity, energy dynamics, and the continuum between health and performance.Communication, curiosity, and willingness to question established paradigms are essential for practitioner growth and improved client outcomes.LEARN MOREJOIN the UHP Network to learn directly from Bill through articles, videos and courses.http://UHP.network TRAIN WITH BILLInterested in the only training program based on Bill Hartman's Model?https://www.reconu.co SUBSCRIBE for even more helpful content:YT: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPTIG: https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/FB: https://www.facebook.com/BillHartmanPTWEB: https://billhartmanpt.com/Podcast audio:https://open.spotify.com/show/7cJM6v5S38RLroac6BQjrd?si=eca3b211dafc4202https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/reconsider-with-bill-hartman/id1662268221or download with YT Premium

In this episode I reconnect with Dr. Andrew Wilson, Reader in Psychology at Leeds Beckett University and a leading voice in ecological psychology in sport. We delve into the fascinating world of affordances, skill development, and the complex challenge of transfer of learning in sport. Andrew brilliantly explains how our traditional understanding of skill acquisition often misses the mark, and why an ecological approach offers a more complete picture of how humans actually learn and develop skill.Three Key Takeaways:The overlap between training and performance contexts that enables transfer of learning is primarily in the information about affordances. When designing practice, focus on ensuring the right information is present rather than prescribed movement patterns.Variability in movement and practice isn't noise to be eliminated but rather a crucial signal that helps develop adaptable, creative performers. The best athletes aren't those who repeat identical movements but those who can respond to dynamic, ever-changing affordances.The ecological approach to coaching might benefit from being framed as an "affordance-led approach" rather than "constraints-led," highlighting how affordances define what counts as functional movement and serve as the primary constraint on motor abundance.Join my learning group 'The Guild of Ecological Explorers' by heading to www.thetalentequation.co.uk and clicking the 'join a learning group' button.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-talent-equation-podcast--2186775/support.

In the latest episode of the HHH Podcast, Coach Kara and Coach Lauren delve into the topic of how women can manage their training and health during their menstrual cycle. They share personal anecdotes and practical advice based on their experiences as athletes. They emphasize the importance of understanding one's own body and cycles, including how menstrual phases can affect energy levels and overall fitness. The conversation highlights that while many women might feel hesitant about exercising on their periods, both coaches find that they often experience increased energy and improved performance during menstruation rather than before it. They touch upon the importance of nutrition, particularly consuming whole foods and managing iron intake during the menstrual cycle. Additionally, they discuss the impact of sleep, hydration, and the necessity of tracking menstrual cycles to optimize health and training.

In this episode, Eric talks about why variability is a bell curve that's particularly challenging to manage in a sport like baseball that, at times, demands so much precision.

I recently had the absolute pleasure of recording a conversation with Dr. Julia Blau and Dr. Jeffrey Wagman, authors of "An Introduction to Ecological Psychology: A Lawful Approach to Perceiving, Acting, and Cognising." Our conversation explored how humans actually perceive and interact with the world around them and question the traditional assumptions about psychology which suggests that we need to create mental representations of the world before we can act. Julia and Jeff shared insights on how the ecological approach transforms our understanding of human movement, and we contextualise this to enpack how we might better provide opportunities for young people to develop their abilities in sport and physical activity.  We discussed how creating rich, varied environments allows people to develop their own solutions to movement problems. This approach promotes agency, enjoyment, and ultimately better performance across many fields from sports coaching to education. Key Takeaways:Ecological psychology views perception and action as directly connected - we don't need to build internal models of the world to interact with it effectively.Variability in practice isn't something to eliminate; it's actually essential for developing adaptable skills that work in changing environments.When teaching movement skills, focus on helping people recognise when something feels right rather than precisely dictating the movements they should make.If you're interested in joining a community where we explore these concepts further, join our learning group 'The Guild of Ecological Explorers' by heading to www.thetalentequation.co.uk and clicking on the 'join a learning group' button.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-talent-equation-podcast--2186775/support.

Emily Kircher-Morris talks with Barbara Pape, Senior Director of the Learner Variability Project, about the concept of learner variability. The conversation touches on the importance of recognizing each student's unique strengths and challenges. They explore how educators can support neurodivergent learners through personalized instruction, they cover the role of technology in education, and talk about the need for a sense of belonging in the classroom. The discussion also touches on the barriers educators face in addressing learner variability and the evolution of educational policy to better support diverse learners. TAKEAWAYS Learner variability is the recognition that each student has unique strengths and challenges. Teaching to the middle does not effectively reach any student. Understanding learner variability allows educators to see design challenges rather than student problems. The Learner Variability Navigator is a tool for educators to understand and support diverse learners. Creating a sense of belonging is crucial for student engagement and success. Students should have agency in how their accommodations are presented to peers. Belonging in the classroom requires a whole child approach. Educational policy must evolve to provide adequate support for neurodivergent learners. Barbara Pape is the Senior Director of the Learner Variability Project at Digital Promise, where she led a national survey on learner variability, edtech, and teacher practice, authored the defining paper on learner variability, and co-developed the IEP Project, which emphasizes strength-based, whole-child approaches to writing IEPs. She also hosts a monthly edWeb webinar series and previously served as executive producer of the award-winning Teaching & Learning conference for the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. Her background includes roles in public policy, having worked on former U.S. Senator Paul Simon's Senate and Presidential campaign, as well as in the U.S. Senate on the Education and Labor Committee. Barbara has contributed to numerous publications and was the editor and publisher of the first electronically delivered education newsletter, The Daily Report Card. She serves on the boards of Benetech and The Riley Project and is involved in multiple education and learner variability working groups. Previously, she was an advisor for the Kennedy Center's Intersection of the Arts and Special Education and a strategic planning committee member for Montgomery County Public Schools. She is currently pursuing a PhD at University College London, holds an EdM in reading and literacy from Harvard University's Graduate School of Education, and began her career as a middle school language arts teacher.

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice. In this episode, "Training the Next Generation of Neurology Nurse Practitioners," Daniel Harrison, MD, neurointensivist and assistant professor of neurology at Boston Medical Center, discussed his role as a senior author on a paper focused on a national needs assessment survey of neurologic education in nurse practitioner (NP) programs. In the conversation, Harrison explained how the survey aimed to understand neurology education across NP programs and identify gaps in training for advanced practice providers. He highlighted key findings, including the importance of lesion localization and neuroradiology for NP postgraduate training. While basic neurology education is integrated into many NP programs, he emphasized the need for more hands-on clinical experiences in specialized areas like neurocritical care and neuro-oncology. He also discussed the critical shortage of preceptors for neurology rotations, which hinders clinical education. Looking ahead, Harrison shared his thoughts on the growing role of NPs in neurology, forecasting a substantial increase in their numbers over the next decade and its impact on both clinical care and education. He also acknowledged the contributions of his colleague, Kate Sweeter, NP, who played a key role in the research, highlighting the importance of NPs in clinical care and academic advancements in neurology.

His interest in tendons grew from personal injuries and working with military athletes. Understanding tendons requires recognizing their complexity and variability. Different tissues in the body respond to different types of training. Tendons need strain to gain strength and resilience. Training should not just focus on one position or angle. Low intensity durability is crucial for tendon health. High intensity repeatability helps in sustaining performance under strain. The bigger the base of connective tissue strength, the higher the peak performance. Innovative training methods can help address specific tendon issues effectively. Endurance athletes experience significant tendon strain but manage it effectively. Connective tissue behavior is crucial for injury prevention. Genetics play a role in tendon health and injury susceptibility. Assessing connective tissue is essential for understanding injury risk. Training should focus on restoring normal connective tissue architecture. Manipulating load, length, and time is key to adaptation. Static training is often overlooked in favor of dynamic work. Integrating multiple training qualities is necessary for performance. Understanding adaptations is more important than just knowing exercises. Progressive overload is essential for long-term connective tissue health.   Notes: https://jackedathlete.com/podcast-138-tendons-with-taylor-starch/

Radiation therapy or radiotherapy, is a common treatment for cancer, but its effectiveness differs across patients. A recent study published as the cover for Volume 17, Issue 2 of Aging explored why this happens. The findings provide valuable insights, particularly for brain cancers like glioblastoma (GBM) and low-grade gliomas (LGG). Understanding Glioblastoma and Low-Grade Gliomas Glioblastoma and LGG are both brain tumors, but they behave in very different ways. GBM is highly aggressive, with most patients surviving only 12 to 18 months, even with surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. LGG, on the other hand, grows more slowly, and many patients live for decades with proper care. Despite their differences, LGG and GBM are biologically linked. Some LGG tumors eventually transform into GBM, making early treatment decisions critical. Given radiation therapy's effectiveness in GBM, it has often been assumed that LGG patients would also benefit from it. However, a new study titled “Variability in radiotherapy outcomes across cancer types: a comparative study of glioblastoma multiforme and low-grade gliomas” challenges this assumption.

BUFFALO, NY — March 3, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Aging (Aging-US) on February 27, 2025, as the #cover of Volume 17, Issue 2, titled “Variability in radiotherapy outcomes across cancer types: a comparative study of glioblastoma multiforme and low-grade gliomas.” An international research team, led by first author Alexander Veviorskiy from Insilico Medicine AI Limited, Abu Dhabi, UAE, and corresponding author Morten Scheibye-Knudsen from the Center for Healthy Aging, University of Copenhagen, investigated how radiotherapy affects survival in different types of cancer, with a special focus on glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and low-grade gliomas (LGG). Their findings reveal that radiotherapy has opposite effects in GBM and LGG patients. The study highlights key biological differences between these brain cancer types, emphasizing the need for personalized treatment strategies. Radiotherapy is a standard treatment for many tumors, but its effectiveness varies widely depending on the type of cancer. The researchers began by analyzing data from 32 cancer types using information from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). They then focused on glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and low-grade gliomas (LGG), two types of brain cancer with distinct biological behaviors. GBM is an aggressive cancer with poor survival rates, whereas LGG progresses more slowly and often has a better prognosis. “GBM and LGG are particularly interesting to study together because GBM often originates from a preexisting LGG, representing a progression from a lower-grade to a higher-grade malignancy.” The results revealed a striking contrast: patients with GBM who received radiotherapy lived longer, whereas those with LGG had shorter survival times after treatment. To understand the reasons behind this, the researchers analyzed gene expression and signaling pathways. They identify several biological processes that may influence radiotherapy outcomes. For example, GBM tumors have weaker DNA repair mechanisms, making them more vulnerable to radiation-induced damage, which allows radiotherapy to effectively kill cancer cells. In contrast, LGG tumors have stronger DNA repair systems, helping cells survive radiation better and potentially reducing the treatment's effectiveness. Additionally, differences in immune system activity and genetic mutations—such as EGFR alterations—were linked to worse survival in LGG patients who received radiotherapy. These findings highlight the need for a more personalized approach to treating brain cancer. The study proposes that a universal approach to radiotherapy is not appropriate, particularly for patients with LGG. Instead, personalized treatment strategies based on genetic and molecular characteristics could improve patient survival outcomes. The research also raises the possibility of combining radiotherapy with targeted therapies, such as immune-boosting therapies or DNA repair inhibitors, to enhance its effectiveness. In conclusion, this study highlights the complexity of brain cancer treatment and the need for further research to refine therapeutic strategies. By understanding the molecular and genetic differences between the different types of cancers, more effective and personalized approaches can be developed to improve survival and quality of life for brain cancer patients.

Send us a textToday, we're joined by Ellen, a mum of two, who shares the story of her evolving birth journey. Her first experience was in the MGP program at her local hospital. After experiencing reduced fetal movement, Ellen was advised to have an induction. The induction led to complications: a fever, blood in her urine, and an accelerated heart rate for her baby, culminating in an unexpected caesarean. Ellen felt a deep sense of disappointment with her first birth experience.Determined to approach her second birth differently, Ellen took the time to educate herself, preparing for a more empowered experience. She chose a homebirth (HBAC) and found the difference to be profound. She was more present, more aware, and felt a deeper sense of control over her body and the process. Ellen reflects on how natural contractions were far more manageable than the synthetic ones from her induction. She also shares the intense afterbirth pains she experienced—pain so severe it caused her to vomit—but despite this, she felt an overwhelming sense of peace and empowerment.Ellen's story is a powerful reminder of the importance of self-advocacy, birth education, and trusting your instincts to shape the birth experience that's right for you.Links:The Great Birth Rebellion - Episode 86 - Internal Release Work with Fiona Hallinan.Birth After Caesarean - Hazel Keedle Mothers & Babies Report 2022Maternal and perinatal outcomes by planned place of birth in Australia 2000-2012: a linked population data study. Perineal Bundles - The Great Birth Rebellion Perineal bungles - The Midwifes' CauldronPerineal ‘Bundles' and Midwifery - Midwife Thinking - Dr Rachel ReedSupport the show@homebirthstoriesaustralia Support the show by buying us a coffee!

Jake shares his personal experience with weight loss and its impact on his social life. David explains his approach to treating patellofemoral pain and the importance of loading. The conversation highlights the biopsychosocial model in understanding pain. David emphasizes the need for less frequent loading for patellofemoral pain compared to tendon pain. Jake questions the structural understanding of patellofemoral pain and its implications for rehab. David shares his personal journey with Achilles tendinopathy and its impact on his athletic performance. The discussion reveals the common pitfalls in calf raise exercises for Achilles rehab. David advocates for high intensity and low frequency in calf raise training. The conversation concludes with insights on the differences between patellar and Achilles tendon management. Rehabbing an Achilles rupture requires careful management of tendon lengthening. Overcoming isometrics are effective for strengthening the Achilles during rehab. Real-world experiences can often contradict existing literature on rehabilitation. Personal experiences with tendon injuries highlight the unpredictability of recovery. Genetics may play a significant role in tendon injuries and recovery. Partial ruptures should be approached with caution, similar to tendinopathy. Pain response is less significant in Achilles rehabilitation compared to other injuries. It's crucial to focus on loading techniques rather than just range of motion. The literature on tendon injuries can be misleading and should be interpreted with caution. Effective rehabilitation requires pushing patients as hard as possible without exceeding their limits. Isometrics can clarify what's working in rehab. Varying surfaces can enhance Achilles rehab. Manipulating center of mass is crucial for rehab. Movement variety is often overlooked in rehab. Tendon mechanics play a significant role in recovery. Heel wedges can provide relief for insertional pain. Upper body tendons require a different approach. Movement variability is essential for upper limb function. Older athletes often lack movement variety and variability. A holistic approach to rehab includes strength, mobility, and control.   David's Website: https://davidgreyrehab.com David's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidgreyrehab/?hl=en Notes: https://jackedathlete.com/podcast-124-tendons-with-david-grey/

In this episode, we discuss the relationship between the intestinal mucus layer and secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA), highlighting both as key components of the gut's first line of defense against pathogens, toxins, and environmental stressors. We detail how dysbiosis and microbial overgrowths can impact sIgA levels and can disrupt mucus integrity and function, contributing to increased intestinal permeability and inflammation. We then examine several additional factors influencing sIgA production. Topics: 1. Introduction: Importance of Secretory IgA and Intestinal Mucus     - Intestinal epithelial lining and its protective mucus layer     - Focus on intestinal dysbiosis and sIgA   2. Anatomy of the Gastrointestinal Lining     - Intestinal lumen, microbiome, mucus layer, epithelial cells, tight junctions, lamina propria, and smooth muscle     - Role of goblet cells in mucus secretion and epithelial integrity    3. Role of the Protective Mucus Layer     - Dual function of the mucus layer as a physical and biochemical barrier     - Composition of mucus: mucins, antimicrobial peptides, immunoglobulins    4. Goblet Cells and Mucin Production     - Mechanisms of mucin secretion and hydration     - Variability in goblet cell density across the intestinal tract     - Dysfunctions linked to conditions like IBD and IBS    5. Microbial Interactions with Mucins     - Glycan structures in mucins    - Roles of commensal and pathogenic bacteria in mucin degradation and mucus turnover     - Importance of regulated mucus production for gut homeostasis    6. Dysbiosis and Mucus Degradation     - Excessive mucin degradation leading to thinning of the mucus layer     - Consequences of increased intestinal permeability and inflammation     - Role of dysbiosis in disrupting the mucus layer    7. Overview of Secretory IgA     - Introduction to secretory IgA (sIgA) and its role in mucosal immunity    - Mechanisms of immune exclusion and pathogen neutralization    8. Production and Function of Secretory IgA     - sIgA production by plasma cells in the lamina propria     - Translocation of IgA through epithelial cells into the gut lumen     - sIgA binding to mucins and its immunological role in the mucus layer    9. Factors Affecting Secretory IgA Levels     - Possible contributing factors to low sIgA levels    - Implications of low and high sIgA levels for immune defense and intestinal health    10. Interactions Between Secretory IgA and Dysbiosis     - Cyclical relationship between low sIgA, dysbiosis, and infections     - Examples of overgrowths, like candida, disrupting sIgA     - Importance of addressing immune dysregulation to break the cycle    11.

They explore the significance of one-handed play, shot selection, and the power of constraints in coaching. The discussion emphasizes the need for variability in practice to better prepare players for game situations, as well as creative constraints that can enhance learning and performance. Finally, they touch on strategies for riding and clearing, highlighting the challenges faced by coaches with smaller rosters. In this conversation, Jamie Munro and Brian Kelly explore innovative coaching strategies in lacrosse, focusing on ecological dynamics and the constraints-led approach. They discuss the challenges and benefits of coaching small teams, the importance of contextual learning, and how to creatively implement constraints to enhance player development. The dialogue emphasizes adaptability in coaching and the significance of decision-making in gameplay, providing practical insights for coaches at all levels. Takeaways Coaching is an evolving process that requires adaptability. Box lacrosse serves as a practical example of constraints in skill development. One-handed play can be effective and is often overlooked in training. Getting to the middle of the field is crucial for scoring opportunities. Scoring constraints can make practice more competitive and engaging. Incorporating variability in practice helps players adapt to game situations. Creative constraints can incentivize desired behaviors in players. Understanding principles of play is essential for effective coaching. Riding and clearing strategies are critical yet often neglected in practice. Small-sided games can enhance riding and clearing skills. Ecological dynamics emphasizes learning in context rather than isolation. Decision-making is crucial for winning games. Players should be allowed to play and learn intuitively. Constraints can guide players to discover skills organically. Variability in practice leads to better adaptability in players. Coaches should focus on principles of play rather than rigid techniques. Creating competitive environments fosters learning and engagement. Adjusting constraints in real-time improves coaching effectiveness. Fun and creativity in practice lead to better player motivation. 00:00 Introduction to Coaching Evolution 12:06 The Power of Constraints in Coaching 18:01 Creative Constraints and Game Flow 30:10 Innovative Strategies for Small Teams 39:09 The Importance of Contextual Learning 44:29 Creative Constraints in Coaching 52:29 Developing Coaches Through Adaptability

Variability of practice helps motor learning. That is an undeniable fact. But let's consider some of the subtleties: what are the different ways we can create variability in practice? How do the benefits of variability depend on the initial variability of the learner?  Why exactly does variability have its effect? When should it be introduced?

Obstacles will naturally arise and are the reasons why you cannot reasonably say that you will not miss a single shot the next game you play. If obstacles are unavoidable and they generate the percentage, then that percentage is unavoidable by extension. This week we drive home the conversation we're having last week about 15% volley and setting reasonable expectations as we try to figure out the best way for us to approach the invariable situation where we miss a shot.  If you understand what goes into your shots like shot variability, and removing variables, you can work your percentage error rate down.You can improve your shots by;i) Working on themii) Drilling iii) Playing more But no matter what, you're gonna have a number that is higher than 0% as there's no 0% error rate. Not even the pros have a 0% error rate. So set the number you want then get it down from whatever your number but recognize that you're always gonna have a number at the end of the day, and how you decide to react to the missed volley relative to that number is going to be relevant to, how you feel and also just dealing in the real world.Better Pickleball Academy; https://betterpickleball.com/academy/Check out last week's episode here; https://betterpickleball.com/221-mistakes-arent-a-failure/
