Dr Susie Spirlock aka Dr Susie Squats guests to share detail and nuance about:

-Why stretching doesn’t often alleviate “tight” muscles. 

-Why dynamic mobility drills and load work better for creating lasting improvements to mobility. 

-How to manage hyper mobility.

-Why the old injury management protocol of Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation is outdated and what to do instead. 

-What is tendonopathy, what’s changed about our understanding, and how to manage and treat it. 

-Why surgery often isn’t the best intervention for injury.

-And much more.
