  • Ep 7: Physical Therapy Misconception Series - Rest or Move
    In The RACK Podcast...Powered by ProForm Physical Therapy.

     

    Chad and Nick talk about some of those misconceptions in the PT world!

     

    Today we are going to focus on the fallacy of resting an injured area of the body. Should we be moving an injured area? ...And will create further injury? 

    Listen as we talk about the importance of movement and how it can only promote improved healing as well as speed up your recovery.

    We even dive into the great debate of tendonitis vs. tendinosis as well as the good ol' arthritis diagnosis lol.

    Listen until the end as we introduce our first guest speaker that we have coming on the podcast for next week.

  • Ep 6: Demystifying Your Diet
    In The RACK Podcast...Powered by ProForm Physical Therapy.

     

    In this Episode Chad and Nick talk about nutrition!

    Nutrition…Now that’s pretty broad.  As we could talk for days about nutrition, we are going to focus on demystifying your diet. In other words we want to set the record straight about some of the misconceptions in the nutrition world.

     

    We are going to be discussing 3 main topics:

     

    1. Increase your protein intake: aim for 1g/lb of ideal weight if looking to lose weight, otherwise try to keep at least .75 g/lb
    2. Don’t fear saturated fats (like from animal sources). Embrace them! Same with cholesterol. Seed oils are the devil!
    3. Add salt to everything! Avoid salt that is bright white in appearance. Look for unrefined salt that is usually pink, beige or gray in appearance

      In The RACK Podcast...Powered by ProForm Physical Therapy.

       

      In this Episode Chad and Nick get a little reckless In The RACK!

      In fact, we are actually going to call these series of episodes Reckless In The Rack. This is where Chad and Nick have a little story time. Story time is where we talk about stories that our patients and clients tell us.

      The best part is…one of these stories might be like your story so you might want to listen!

      These stories are not only crazy, but they are reckless!

      It's reckless as a provider to be telling patients this type of harmful information!

      So...if you are a healthcare provider and are listening to this episode we just ask that you don’t be reckless with other people's health.

      Now for all of you patients that are listening…you shouldn’t put up with people who are reckless with yours!

      Let's Get Learnt!

    5. Ep 4: Natural Footwear Transition...Free Your Feet
      In The RACK Podcast...Powered by ProForm Physical Therapy.

       

      In this Episode Chad and Nick recap modern day footwear and its impact on our normal foot function as well as discuss the steps to transitioning their patients and clients to natural footwear.

       

      Criteria For Natural Footwear:
      • Zero Drop - Flat 
      • Wide Toe Box - Widest from tip of big toe to tip of little toe, not the bases of the toes like conventional shoes.
      • Flexible Sole - Can be contorted in a variety of ways, not only bending in one spot - i.e break point.
      • Thin Sole - 200,000 nerve endings in the foot, let them feel the ground and interact with the environment like they are supposed to!

         

        Steps-By-Step Process To Transitioning To Natural Footwear:
         
        Step #1: Figure out where you fall on the footwear spectrum
        Step #2: Determine your barefoot ability
        Step #3: Make small changes to footwear - Address one component at a time - Heel-to-toe drop first!
        Step #4: Address other components of shoes if need be - some may stop at step #3 If appropriate.
        Step #5: Reap the benefits, and have a variety of footwear options

         

        Remember...Regaining a positive relationship with your feet requires a lifelong journey, so we need to start small. And have patience!

        Let's Free Those Feet!

        Here at ProForm PT, we believe that feet are the foundation. After listening to this episode we hope that you can all have a better understanding as to how to regain a healthier relationship with your feet.

      • Ep 2: Training is Rehab...Rehab is Training!
        In The RACK Podcast...Powered by ProForm Physical Therapy.

         

        In this Episode Chad and Nick talk about bridging the gap between rehab and training and how they utilize this model in their facility. We need to stop thinking of rehab and training as separate entities.

        We feel this is where the traditional PT model is missing the boat! But that's ok...This is where we come in to see if we can help reshape this model so that we can provide better outcomes for our patients and clients. 

        You will start to notice that there are many aspects of the present-day healthcare system that we are unhappy with. We want to make our listeners better consumers in determining the right course of treatment for themselves, specifically as it pertains to physical therapy and strength & conditioning.

        Let's get it started!
