Wed, 05 Apr 2023 - 21min - 111 - EP111: “4 Steps To Design a Strength & Conditioning Program”
“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!

Wed, 29 Mar 2023 - 34min - 110 - EP110: “3 BIG Mistakes PTs Make With Acute Injuries”
“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!
