The Physical Performance Show

Dr Amit Mistry is a Clinical Lecturer in Sport & Exercise Medicine, he is the Chair of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, Sport & Exercise Special Interest Group and he is a Clinical Sport and Exercise Psychiatrist from the UK.

Dr Mistry is the co-author of a recently released book, "Case Studies in Sports Psychiatry", which is a must for anyone working in the field of sport and exercise. Dr Mistry shares many learnings pertinent to every athlete, every coach, every health and sport practitioner.

Topics explored include:

• Exercise Addiction – What is it and how is it differentiated from a healthy undertaking of sporting activity. When Dr Mistry shared the characteristics of exercise addiction, I'll put my hand up and say I ticked most of the boxes.
• What is the Role of Perfectionism in Sport – when is it helpful and when does it become problematic or potentially maladaptive.
• Depression and anxiety in athletes, what are the warning signs and what are the ways these conditions can be best treated and stewarded.

In other learnings include the topics of eating disorders and disordered eating, event anxiety and ADHD and its role in sporting performance.

JF Esculier is the Assistant Professor at the University of British Columbia. He is the Head of Research and Development and Speaker at the Running Clinic and in industry circles you can't go past good running injury research without JF Esculier being somewhere amongst it.

JF is listed as one of the 15 World Class Experts at the upcoming The Physical Performance Show co- hosted Master's Athletes Online One Day Symposium. We thought it would be a great opportunity to showcase this conversation with JF Esculier around a topic that few people know more about on the planet and that is the relationship of running and knee/hip osteoarthritis.

In this conversation, you'll hear JF share around the misconceptions about running and knee osteoarthritis, the findings of current research into the relationship between running with known symptomatic and asymptomatic knee osteoarthritis. JF issues guidelines on what to do if you do have known symptomatic knee osteoarthritis to promote the best future of your joints and issues a great physical challenge feel the week.

Ebonie shares around the difference between tendinopathy and tendonitis and why terminology matters. The limitations of imaging and practitioners' words in how they can set the trajectory for patients and athletes expectations, why it's necessary to be strong and symmetrical in order to work on strength and conditioning in an isolated manner. Ebonie touches on why form matters when it comes to key exercises such as calf raises and how to navigate practically the ups and downs that are a-given for the tendinopathy rehabilitation process.
