We learn from Matthew Tuttle, an accomplished former Head of Medicine and Performance for the New York Red Bulls and Director of Sports Science and Physical Therapist for the Denver Nuggets. Currently a full-time PhD student at Central Queensland University, Matthew shares his extensive experience in professional sports, including the NBA, MLS, and NWSL. In this episode, we dive into the intricacies of athlete monitoring, the challenges of integrating rehab and sports science in the NBA, and the practical application of these concepts in different sports. Matthew also gives us a glimpse into his PhD research on external workload in NBA games and discusses the parallels between pro sports and clinical practice. A conversation that blends the worlds of high-performance sports and evidence-based practice, filled with insights from Matthew's unique journey and his passion for finding the best coffee shops in every city!Looking to get to CSM for Free?Here's your way in: CLICK HERE (https://therapy.atipt.com/csm2024-2/?source=Appcast&utm_campaign=PTPintcast&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz--Dm7XRkF4Ozl7FOW2yseLe9Aay7b6ib6YocTXsEk2qBOiilmdDBApIZKbdi3d_9eOHdG6f)
