Topics: Ben fills us in on his post-doctorate to date and what we can expect moving forward. What is ‘match load’? What do we often overlook when it comes to match load? Ben talks about a framework to clarify the construct of match load. What is ‘density ' in practice? How accurate is the data we are getting? How do we include all this information in our rehab systems? Advice around rehabilitation for those without GPS units What do we mean by injury-specific metrics, and how might this be something that can be applied in practice moving forward? What are we missing in our current rehab RTP models in sport of recent times? Individual factors to account for the return to play process. Position demands and rolling windows. What is the post-rehabilitation phase and how can we minimise subsequent injury here? When does rehab actually stop (by definition)? One specific change Ben has made to his rehab system based on his research that other practitioners could implement tomorrow? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8WqG4C79Ws References: Ben is undertaking a Professional Doctorate at the University of Central Lancashire, evaluating rehabilitation procedures in professional football.   Ben Post Doc Papers: Match load as a construct in professional football: complexities and considerations  Evaluating rehabilitation and return to play procedures in male professional football: A narrative review.

    Running Biomechanics and Return to Run Post ACL-R

    In this episode, Dr Daniel Cobian discusses all things running post ACL reconstruction, specifically the research that he and the team at the University of Wisconsin have been looking at regarding running biomechanics changes in post-surgical recovery. How pervasive they are, how we can detect them in the clinical setting, their clinical relevance, and how we can tailor our rehab to address these changes with our athletes. Dr Cobian is an associate professor in the department of orthopedics and rehabilitation at the University of Wisconsin, a faculty member in their doctor of physical therapy program, a research scientist in their athletic performance lab, and works clinically with their student athletes. He has been at the University of Wisconsin for the past 10 years, since completing his PhD from the University of Iowa, focusing on neuromuscular function following knee injury and surgery. Topics: What changes in running biomechanics are observed in athletes after ACL reconstruction and how long post-surgery do these changes last? What are the implications of the athlete continuing to run with these altered biomechanics? How can we assess and detect these changes in a clinical setting without access to expensive 3D motion capture and biomechanical analysis equipment? What are the likely causes of these biomechanical changes? How can we tailor post-surgical rehabilitation to target these changes? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaYNynwvAqQ References: Cobian, D.
