@kcrehabguy I like using a plyo progression after minimum criteria met (ie ACL using TTBW). I like less intense GRF plyos as an entry point: pogos, DL jumps to 4-8” box for less GRF, SL long step to freeze, skipping, side shuffles as a bridge to jogging. Much easier to build impact volume

@NickHoopes_ RFD deficits! so often untested, and under treated. But most don’t test quads either, so it’s still an uphill battle. Still a time and place for hop tests, but vertical testing is so important

@LenMacPT @VALDPerformance Gets real easy, just becomes periodized S&C at that point! Don’t need to focus single leg as much I suppose either! Hypertrophy, strength, power, speed.

@DPTRoman @kcrehabguy @chuckthigpen Agreed. Recently had a JUCO player in with anteromedial elbow pain, with MRI, told it was UCL+cartilage - but meanwhile kid couldn’t extend neck more than 30 degrees, had FDP weakness, + ULTT for median and ulnar. Cleared the neck, symptoms improved.

@spartywrx @DrDiGiorgio So many Canadians getting care in the border towns/cities. Buffalo, Detroit, Seattle, etc. Very common for MSK care as well due to long wait times for advanced imaging/surgical intervention.

@tomgoom @DrJN_SportsMed Fantastic case as to why diagnosis matters! I’d be curious if saphenous nn neuro dynamics testing or lumbar movements change symptoms too. Saw one kid like this, got an MRI of tibia and no edema but all symptoms were “burning pain” on medial aspect.

@JCondreay More I thought about it, the more it makes sense. If you’re undersized but punching above your weight so to speak you’re still going to have a hard time with throwing hard/swinging hard. A certain level of mass is required still.
