Simple model we made for hockey: Glute max = power Glute med/min = control Deep rotators = stability We feel better pelvic control & hip rotary strength = likely more efficient skating (if technique’s solid) What do you think? Feedback is invited. #hockey #physio #rehab

1 in 4 goalies are dealing with hip/groin pain at any given time. What are you seeing in your athletes? Wrote about it here @TheCoachesSite

Goalies, your hips are more than just joints - they're performance powerhouses. Strengthening them can reduce injury risk and boost agility. Coaches, prioritize hip health for a stronger crease presence. Great article from Physiotherapist @Tscarr4.

I wrote this in January of 2016 and reaffirmed this stance when interviewed by MLB in spring 2024 for their injury report. Kudos to MLB for chipping away at this. https://t.co/8OGUmYBt8I

We'll catch up soon... but I've been working on a new project that will debut next month. My new podcast "Better Sports Parents" will feature ex & current pro athletes talking youth sports and offering perspective on how we all can improve the youth sports environment.

STRANGE BUT TRUE: OTD in 1919, Indians pitcher Ray Caldwell was struck by lightning during the 9th inning. He got back up and recorded the final out to finish the game. Unreal.

It’s been an awesome summer trying to look at things a bit differently with some of the hockey players I work with. Trying to work backwards from the ice, not just what I see on the physio table! https://t.co/FfxhMgLPZk @hockeyphysiopod

Ichiro with a simple answer to what was the key to his almost immortality in playing the game, “Because I loved it.” Also, he said he went to a field here yesterday to run and play catch.

For those of you that think Tyrese Haliburton (or any elite athlete) tore his Achilles tendon because of a “bad training program,” why didn’t he tear it the game before?! Injuries and pain are complex. Find ways to have less time bickering on the internet 😉. @CWagon75
