Celebrating Success: Provider highlight 🥳

Remember Dr. Erienne’s feature on the podcast? (If not you should go check it out!) 👀

Erienne might be our most resistant content creator 😅 but she absolutely crushed the podcast and we are celebrating it’s one of the top most downloaded episodes 👏

Way to go Erienne!! 💪

In a couple short months it will be time to start cleaning up that landscaping 🌸

📈 It’s also the same time we start to see more elbow overuse injuries. All that gripping and pulling can take a toll on our elbows if we aren’t ready for it.

Try adding this one exercise into your gym routine to start prepping NOW! 👍

Try on both legs or increase the challenge by performing it on one leg 👀

Aim for ~30 degrees of knee flexion to elicit the most hamstring contraction 👍

Does caffeine improve athletic performance? 🤔

Actually, in some ways, yes 👍 Caffeine blocks adenosine (a compound that makes you feel relaxed and sleepy) from binding to its receptors.

There’s lots of good evidence that, when used in the endurance sport context, caffeine helps improve your time to exhaustion. In the strength training context, caffeine’s benefits are likely psychological rather than physical. 🤓

Research suggests caffeine reduces the perception of pain and increases motivation, so you’re more willing to work a little harder in the gym, rather than actually increasing your force production. 😤

The caveat to all this? Caffeine’s effects are most noticeable if you are not tolerant to caffeine already. In other words, if you want to maximize the benefits of caffeine, don’t consume it regularly, and save it for the big race. 🙂‍↕️

Running slower for the first mile doesn’t count as a “warm up” 🙅‍♀️

Yes, I’m talking to all you runners! 😆

👍 Instead, try this 2-3 minutes full body, no equipment, quick and dirty dynamic run warm up before you hit that first mile.

Hamstring tendon pain can be a serious pain in your butt, literally 🍑

If you are having a significant amount of pain, try offloading your tendon for a few days to let it calm down.

🙅‍♀️ Avoid positions that compress your tendon: sitting, deep lunging, running/hiking up steep inclines, yoga positions with deep hip flexion.

🤓 Mythbuster Monday: You shouldn’t static stretch before working out

This is a tricky one 🤔 For the latter part of the 20th century, the predominant school of thought was that static stretching (prolonged holds of a position) increases range of motion and reduces resistance to movement, thereby promoting improved movement efficiency and decreased injury risk.

🤨 This thought shifted at the turn of the century, with several studies suggesting that prolonged stretching reduces a muscle’s subsequent strength and power output. Thus, exercise experts promoted dynamic, sport-specific movements as the preferred warm-up.

As the body of evidence becomes more robust, it appears that the answer may be somewhere in between. (Shocker, we know.) 😅

👀 It does appear that holding a stretch >60 seconds results in temporary but noticeable decreases in strength and power (example: can’t jump as high after doing deep, prolonged calf stretching). However, stretches held for 30-60 seconds appear to have trivial to no negative impact on subsequent strength and power, especially when coupled with sport-specific warm-up movements (Chaabene et al. 2019).

The takeaway? Feel free to stretch before working out. Keep the holds 30-60 seconds, and add in some dynamic movements after the static ones for a complete and thorough warm-up 👍

Hamstring pulls are one of those injuries that tend to happen ON REPEAT 😫

Once you have one, you are more at risk for it happening again. Likely due to the fact the hamstring never gets fully rehabbed 😬

🦵 When rehabbing your hamstring, make sure to hit all of its functions both at the hip and at the knee. Try this trio of hamstring strength to hit knee flexion, hip extension long lever, and hip extension short lever.

Happy hamstring-ing :) 🤗
