Kim Lowry and

Nutrition Myths are so close, so easy, so trendy…Kim Lowry discusses some of the Sports Nutrition myths with Ryan Collins at the Memorial Hermann Sports Medicine Update.

2-2.2 grams of protein if they are trying to bulk up

Total calories are a common misconception

You can not bulk up Muscle but not add any fat…almost universally

Spread it out throughout the day

Research is mixed – some say within an hour increases your muscle growth

You can ap into muscle synthesis about every 3-4 hours

Nuts

Low-fat cheese sticks

Greek yogurt

Deli turkey

P3 packets

Protein bars and shakes

Adding chicken to your pasta dish

You can add peanut butter

Or peanuts

I like to use the “Tasty App” and search for dorm room ramen for healthier options

Eggs are another good option

Pretty much all of the nutrition myths have been disproven in all healthy usage of creatine.

Sean Hwang discusses his first SWATA experience with Dr. DJ Gilliland.

Korean American

Went to UT Austin.

US Army field artillery officer for 3 years

Went to chiropractor undergrad for a semester

I had been doing something similar to AT with my amateur Korean soccer teams

I shadowed John Houston at the University of Houston Women’s Basketball

I was not expecting to learn a lot because they made it out to be a fun hang-out.

Dr. Knoblauch’s lecture about balance

Being up to date on current trends

Cannabis lecture from Dr. Konin

I would love to…but I have not really.

Dr. Harrison: we will take you around and let you shake hands with everyone

Nope they fundraise

Last year’s group did a great job fundraising.

The stickers and bracelets were a pretty big hit

There were about 20 students.

Our preceptors and partners jump on the opportunity to get the students here.

If you are passionate about learning new things then coming to SWATA is the place to be.

Cannabis is not THC. CBD can be used without it causing an impact on your THC test levels.

I would like to see more nonathletic setting workshop courses here at SWATA.

DG: CBD talks

DG: Seeing people I have not seen in years

LH: Bre’Layshia’s talk included a personality trait test and have mock conversations with different personality types.

Storytime with buzz is just that, fun stories from an old school Athletic Trainer still practicing. Thanks, Bethpage Consulting for helping to get the SMB out to SWATA 2023 in Arlington.

I have been attending SWATA for about 38 years

I broke my collarbone playing football and then became the team manager.  Sam Aguilara came to teach the coaches about Athletic Training products.  I knew I could do the stuff he was showing the coaches.

The next thing I knew they were sending me to AT clinics at colleges.

I have met a lot of great people during my career as an Athletic Trainer

Joel Kregerberg was the assistant AT for the Oilers while I was an intern.  I got to tape Earl Cambell.  He greatly deflated my ego when he told me it was the worst tape job he ever had.

Houston Rodeo got me started with Justin Sports Medicine and Truman Spoon Sports Medicine

Not really, I was always around the people and did not consider it.

Seminole High School is about an hour from Lubbock.

I moved to Macaney with the head coach

Then the Houston Oilers called and I moved to Houston

I taught driver’s ed in the morning.

It is a small school with a small AT Facility

We were really good at basketball and gymnastics

I taught a job at the Air Force base with firemen and nurses

Valerie Tinklepaugh-Hairston – with her impact on college sports and SWATA

David Traylor – SWATA Hall of Honor

Southlake Carroll High School is being run by two of my former ATs

This award brings a smile to my face every time I think about it.

My dad was a pharmacist

My brother was a pharmacist and MD

I thought about following them

A Houston Oiler went down and was basically numb from the neck down

We backboarded him

That was his last game to ever play.

He was a good friend of mine.

My wallet and everything I needed were in my bag that the equipment managers packed up since I went to the hospital with him.  We almost got stranded in Kansas City.

Preparedness to throw is a whole new process of injury prevention. Chris Gallina joins Ryan Collins live at the Sports Medicine Update 2023

Volume

BAD in Youth Athletes

Rest for throwing Athletes

We usually suggest no athlete should be pitching for more than 7 months

Maybe pitch for 2 seasons then focus on fielding and hitting

Pitchers should not play pitcher and catcher as well

James Andrews – you should not throw a curve ball until you can shave

Mechanics is key during the pitch

Fastball and changeup are very effective for youth athletes

Medial elbow pain is number one

The posterior cuff is sore on the Youth Athlete after almost every pitching outing

Flex 

Rotation

Cross body abduction

Is it GIRD or adaptation?

Mr. Burns Posture (The Simpsons)

Pec Minor 

Deep Neck Flexors

Eddie Smith shares how the state powerhouse Katy Tigers are reducing the fear of hamstring injuries during rehab for their athletes.

There have been 6000 papers published about hamstring injuries

The research is all over the place.

The only real consensus is Nordic hamstring curls

We start with NSAIDs

The next day we start with movement

COMPEX

Ankle movement

Heel slides

As soon as they can walk pain-free we get them back on the field

We use short lever arm exercises

We use Catapult for GPS data and can help know when our players are working within a safe range.

Know your athlete

Communicate with all of the stakeholders

Athlete

Coach

Mom and dad

0-80% is easy, but 80-100% is the really hard part.

Educate them on some of the options: PRP, Cryo, …anything that will help them feel better.

Mentally they are prepared, physically they are not.

The first two weeks are most commonly the time frame for reinjury

Repeat the exposure incident over and over again.

I like to have them sprint over and over again.

We want to train on the speed-strength continuum as much as possible

Gymaware is the bar speed program we use.

Nordic Hamstring curl

Implement the eccentric

Are there any hamstring quad deficits

QCollar seems like just another gimmick…but this could really be a life-changing tool. Dr. David Smith, inventor of the Q-Collar joins me to discuss the story, how it works, and his book When Heads Come Together.

Dr. Dave was presenting at the Army Research Lab in 2008 where they threw down the gauntlet complaining that clever people should “figure out Traumatic Brain Injury.”

I was working on wound care.

When presented with the woodpecker I immersed myself in the anatomy and physiology of cavity animals.

During a yawn, you are occluding your jugular.

42 patents

We are the only FDA-approved TBI prevention device.

FDA recommends 4 hours.

We lay down to sleep for 8 hours at a time and occlude our jugulars.

Julian Bailes listened to me and encouraged me

We looked at how a giraffe breathes

In the first 10 minutes after a concussive event, there is a critical issue

We partnered with Dr. Jedd Hardings at Cinncinatti

Spreading depolarization

I told him CO2 was the trigger for the depolarization

They raised the CO2 levels of a legally brain-dead patient in a coma.  The family agreed to try this and 4 hours later he awoke from his coma.
