Today's episode is a solo episode with myself, Dr. Michael Falk, and I am going off on a bit of a rant about my profession in physical therapy and some of the things I have been experiencing.  Physical therapists are more than just a series of interventions for people trying to get back to an active lifestyle.  We are not just people that can do a soft tissue mobilization and massage.  We are a profession that is well trained to fully evaluate where you are and build a comprehensive plan to get you back to your activities.  We can all do better at our profession and I hope this episode strikes a cord with you in this profession.

What is up, everyone?  Welcome back to the show!  This week, we are joined by Matt Lindberg who is a golf instructor here in the Milwaukee area.  Matt has been teaching golf for over 15 years. He is a graduate of Ferris State University, and got his start in the golf business at Oakland Hills Country Club. There, he learned the business under a great Head Professional and Instructor.  Matt’s students drop an average of 10 shots in 10 weeks. Visit his YouTube Channel to see all testimonials!

Hey everyone, and welcome back to the podcast!  We are excited to bring you another episode with Jack Hackett.  Jack joined us on Episode 2 of the podcast to discuss all things running including foot striking and cadence.  If you haven't listened to that episode, you should take the time to go back and listen!  Today, we are going to dive into lactate threshold training.

Jack was an exercise physiology major and a collegiate runner at Marquette university for four years, where he ran cross country and the distance events in track.  Following his time at Marquette, he continued to train and run professionally for a brief period before an injury kept him from going further. Beyond running, Jack has worked at Performance Running Outfitters as the sales and staff training director and recently started his own company, Infinity Run Co.

On today's episode, I wanted to get the message across of how important habit and consistency are in training, rehab, your sports, and everyday life.  I have wanted to talk about this for a while and I did not know what format would be best but I finally decided that doing a podcast would be best for this.  Why am I talking about this particular subject?  I think these two things are two of the key performance indicators for success in any sport or rehab process.

I hope you found this information helpful, and I hope it triggers some of you to look at your life and try to find ways that you can build habits into your routine to help you achieve your goals.  Thank you for listening to this episode!
