“How do I create a strength & conditioning program for athletes?” It’s not as difficult as most physical therapists think.
The best place to start is with a comprehensive intake and performance analysis. Once you determined the athlete’s needs, you create a monthly or quarterly program with corresponding parameters and exercises that address the desired neuromuscular stimulus.
In this episode, I share the mistakes I’ve made and the overall framework to help sports PTs design a strength and conditioning program with ease. If you’re a sports PT and want to gain more experience with program design for athletes, you need to tune into this episode. Enjoy!

“Verbal and vague”… this is the way most PTs outline care to patients with acute injuries. Instead, patients should have a full outline of care written down with expected week-by-week healing timelines so they have a plan. However, managing patient care with the “verbal and vague” framework delays healing, decreases patient buy-in, and leads to poor outcomes.
This is no different than a patient going to an urgent care and sent home to rest for 4-6 weeks with crutches and anti-inflammatories without a plan. Both are very similar scenarios.
In this episode, I share the 3 mistakes physical therapists should avoid when managing injuries in the early healing phases. If you’re a sports PT and want to make sure you’re maximizing patient outcomes…especially with acute injuries, you need to tune into this episode. Enjoy!

“What are the two simple things you focus on when you create a strength & conditioning program for athletes?” I hear physical therapists say that programming can seem daunting but it doesn’t have to be.

In this episode, I share two critical things to consider when designing a program for an athlete in the off-season, pre-season, and in-season. Enjoy!

-What credentials to look for in your search for a financial advisor
-The difference between financial planning vs investing
-Scenarios when buying a home is better than fully paying off student debt
