  • 1:45 the evolution of chiropractic treatment and education
  • 9:15 sadly the injury prevalence for most endurance athletes is high: typically 50-80% of at least a minor issue
  • 9:45 the Kissel Hierarchy of Injury Prevention
    • Strength training: high load, low reps, compound movement-focused, more frequently in the off-season
    • Appropriate and systematic increase in volume - aka load management
    • Gait retraining ONLY to address recurring injuries
    • Listen to your body and don’t ignore symptoms
    • Education and understanding of injury root causes and fixes
  • 14:30 the difficulty of quantifying training load and global stress with devices
  • 19:15 a trip down a data overload tangent
  • 23:15 if it ain’t broke…
  • 24:00 more on strength training
    • From BSJM: 3-6 sets, 5-15 reps, 60-80% of 1RM, compound lifts, 2-3x weekly in the off season and less frequently during large-volume endurance training phases
    • The purpose of strength training is global tissue resilience and strength rather than a corrective for a specific issue
  • 26:30 the evolving nature of evidence in sport science
  • 29:00 gait retraining to address recurring injuries
    • Care must be taken to use gait training to improve economy
  • 33:45 updated guidelines for training with an injury: cessation of activity may not be the right answer in all cases.
  • 35:45 the significant role of how quickly treatment for a soft tissue injury is started after the injury in recovery time
  • 39:30 the role of education in positive outcomes
  • 41:15 humans are resilient!
  • 44:45 the evolution in treatment of tendon injuries
    • Used to be treated through stretching and rest
    • Imaging like ultrasound is no longer recommended in diagnosing or assessing tendon injury
    • Contemporary prescription is heavy, slow loading of the tendon to a low pain threshold
  • 52:00 traditional shoe prescription is nonsense
