100% preventable. Reach out if you would like to discuss evidence-based interventions for your particular school or sport.

🟥 Another young athlete lost. A 16-year-old football player collapsed and died after practice in Tennessee this July.

We at the Korey Stringer Institute are heartbroken—and frustrated.
Why? Because exertional heat stroke (EHS) deaths are 100% preventable.

🧊 Cold-water immersion saves lives.
Recently published data show a 100% survival rate in 454 EHS patients when treated promptly and properly.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37655801/

Yet, every summer, we see avoidable deaths—often football linemen in August. This is the 4th case of EHS in high school since July 1st.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39663688/

Linemen, due to their size and physical demands, require conditioning programs tailored to their unique needs and risks.

✅ Best practices are clear:
*Heat acclimatization
*Environmental monitoring
*Conditioning and training that matches physical abilities
*Cold-water immersion on-site
*“Cool first, transport second”

🎓 Athletic trainers and coaches must lead the way to make sure workouts match both fitness level and heat conditions.

📢 No AT on-site? Parents, guardians, coaches, school leaders—speak up!
Athletes deserve medical professionals at every practice and game.

Let’s stop the heartbreak.
Let’s protect our athletes.

Fun fact, arm pain is most often a result not the cause. Give me a call/text if you have a young athlete having preseason arm pain. It is definitely NOT a "push through the pain" situation. We can work through mechanics, stretching, mobilizations, balance, and strengthening the entire chain.
