In today's episode, we have podiatrist Andy Bryant. Andy focuses on the natural function of the feet, exploring how they are biologically and evolutionarily designed to move. Andy is also a professional educator for The Foot Collective, a global community of experts committed to addressing the root causes of dysfunction and restoring foot health. 

In this episode, we explore what led Andy away from traditional podiatry and onto a natural path. We also cover common foot issues he encounters in his clinic, his thought process for addressing them, considerations regarding children and footwear, and instances of misdiagnosis in foot problems.

"If you don't know history, it's as if you were born yesterday. If you were born yesterday, then any leader can tell you anything." - Howard Zinn.

“The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you are likely to see.” - Winston Churchill.

“The more you know of your history, the more liberated you are.” - Maya Angelou.

In this episode, we look back through history and the forgotten contributions of one of the ultimate greats in our field of sports performance, Dr. Bondarchuk.

Dr. B was a pioneer in the study of Transfer of Training, individualization of training, and periodization.  His results and the results of his athletes speak for themselves.  (12 World Records. His athletes won Gold, Silver, and Bronze in three Olympic Games. That’s every Olympic hammer medal for 12 years in a row.)

His work should be commonplace knowledge in our field.

Today's episode is with Skill Acquisition Coach Tyler Yearby.  Tyler is the co-founder of Emergence: A Movement Skill Education Company.  

Tyler has worked with athletes at all levels and most recently just received his PhD in Sport & Exercise. In this episode, we go through what a Skill Acquisition coach is. What is Ecological Dynamics, and how is it different from the standard "coach lead" approach?   What an "alive" movement practice may look like, and where coaches interested in applying these concepts can start.  

Tyler has also published articles and research, which I highly recommend you check out!

Hamstring injuries are the most common type of injury at all levels of sports performance.
 
Today's podcast snack concerns the prevalence of hamstring injuries in sports, from their occurrence to rehabilitation and prevention.  

As well as what I feel is being missed in all of this. I  share a case study of 9 coaches who, in 61 years of coaching cumulatively, hardly have any hamstring injuries.
