ClinicalAthlete Podcast

On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor welcome two special guests onto the show – Josh D’Angelo and Rich Ortiz of MovementX Josh is a co-founder of MovementX, which is a company that is providing Physical Therapists with unique employment opportunities that help them both scratch the entrepreneurial itch, but also provide stability within an established and trusted brand. It was really cool to hear Josh tell the founding story and go into what makes MovementX such a unique company to work for, and in turn, to bringing great care to their clientele. And Rich Ortiz is one of those bright shining star Physical Therapists who’s crushing it within the MovementX umbrella, so it was cool to get that perspective as well – and Rich also recently completed the clinical Athlete provider certification, so he’s a great example of someone who is really trying to maximize their professional development gainz.  We go into a ton more – what can rehab professionals do to connect with their communities and educate them on what value they bring to the table, what can new grads do, or anybody looking for growth really, to find those new opportunities, and a ton more. It really was a great conversation. We hope you enjoy!

On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor welcome two special guests onto the show – Chris Juneau and Jason Tuori. Chris and Jason are two all-star physical therapists who we consider good friends and who we’ve had the privilege to work with in varying capacities over the years. They are co-hosts of the PT Inquest podcast and teach a continuing education course called Dungeons and Dynamometers – which is all about teaching principles and methods of objective testing for clinical care and performance. And that’s the topic of discussion for this show – we cover some big picture questions like, why do we test at all? Why does it matter? When does it not matter? How do we utilize the data that we gather? And then we get into the weeds a little bit too, on the differentiation of kinematics and kinetics, testing set up, dynamometer use, and a ton more. And of course, we ask the big question – is manual muscle testing a valid and reliable means of testing & monitoring force production with data that we can trust to make decisions with? (spoiler: probably not) All of this AND more. We hope you enjoy!

On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor welcome a special guest onto the show – Ramsey Nijem who is the Director of Performance for the men’s basketball team at the University of Kansas. And before that, Ramsey worked for years in the NBA as a head strength & conditioning coach, so needless to say, he knows a thing or two about working with basketball players and teams at the highest levels.  We go into so much on this show – what it’s like working within a high performance staff and how all the different hats of S&C, rehab, sport coaches all work together, differences in how he planned and programmed training in the NBA vs. college; how his training programs are structured from off season to in season, how he manages training when injuries or fatigue are present within the team or individual athletes to still help them get some kind of training effect in season,  All of this AND more We hope you enjoy!

Quinn and Zak dive into the complexities of injury and rehab, sharing personal experiences like a recent hamstring tweak. They discuss the common misconceptions athletes have about quick fixes, likening rehab to a journey rather than a transaction. The duo emphasizes the importance of effective communication in prescribing exercises, particularly plyometrics, and challenge established notions about when to reintroduce sport-specific movements. They also explore the human side of providers who get injured and the ongoing learning required to navigate recovery.

On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor discuss some major upgrades to our Clinical Athlete Provider curriculum – now, the thing is, these upgrades are inspired by feedback and some continued friction points that providers are still experiencing with ExRx in general.  So, there are PLENTY of actionable takeaways from this episode that anyone listening can apply to their athletes right away.

On this show, Zak and Quinn discuss the concept of “Mobility” and share how their thoughts and feelings about this topic have evolved over the last decade, and how that has influenced their exercise prescription. It’s always a hot topic, so hopefully we don’t make too many people mad (JK we love ruffling feathers.) We hope you enjoy!

In this episode, Steph Allen from ACL Resolve, a remote ACL rehab specialist, shares her expertise on ACL recovery. She addresses the crucial early to mid-stage rehabilitation process, offering insights on the role of braces and factors influencing recovery timelines based on graft types. Steph emphasizes the significance of communication between athletes and healthcare providers, while also discussing strategies for quadriceps activation and the importance of individualized rehab approaches. Her tips aim to enhance recovery confidence and readiness for returning to sport.

We get these questions a lot – “Should I get the CSCS cert?” “Should I get my OCS?” and the like. So, we thought we’d give our thoughts on these and other credentials specifically, but also talk more generally about what ‘learning’ really is and how you can answer these questions for yourself.
