[Exclusive Interview] Why Study Strength Training & Coaching As A Physical Therapist With Dr. Al Lin, PT
There has been an undeniable shift in the clinical physical rehabilitation field, and it's been steadily changing since about 2015. Physical therapists and chiropractors no longer focus solely on pain management, short-term relief, isolation techniques, manual therapy, and modalities. Instead, they aim to influence the whole person in front of them and achieve global long-term tissue change with a patient's unique goals in mind.
This evolution has been extremely revolutionary. It has led to much more successful outcomes and happier patients. Clinicians who utilize this progressive approach can influence patients on a level we were never taught in school. Patients are reaping the benefits of progressive overload while adequately stressing tissues to make lasting changes.
Strength is the foundation for everything. The squat, bench press, deadlift, and overhead press are the most functional because they apply to every movement we do in our daily life. Unfortunately, doctoral programs lack the education in exercise prescription, progressive overload, or anything strength training related.
In this very special episode, Dr. Rori Alter, PT, PRSCC, SSC, and Dr. Alyssa Haveson, PT, PRSCC, CSCS, interview Dr. Al Lin, PT, who has been putting in the work to stay up to date with the massive shift, despite being in practice for 15 years. He is passionate about learning how to provide the best care for his patients. One of the most influential things for his clinical practice has been understanding the principles of strength training. He started powerlifting and noticed the importance of structured programming and the power of getting stronger.
He wanted the same for his patients. Therefore, he sought Progressive Rehab & Strength courses to understand how to program, prescribe, and teach each patient how to use strength training principles- no matter the clinical scenario.
By taking PRS Programming Fundamentals and Barbell Coaching & Movement Optimization, Dr. Al Lin feels fully equipped to achieve successful, lasting patient outcomes. This episode is chock-full of insight and lessons from 15 years in practice, where Al demonstrates that you are never too experienced to continue learning and advancing your practice.
