Discogenic Low Back Pain Case Study Recently my girlfriend had a spurt of lower back pain that forced her to miss work for a whole week. She could not get off the ground for 2 day straight. Lucky for you, she was willing to share the whole experience on the show. Here's the link for the whole examination/ treatment video that Ben Ramos did with Allie about 2.5 weeks after the onset. It will be the 4th email of the series The first will be Dynamic Hip Evaluation, the Dynamic Shoulder Evaluation, Tension Clues & Cues and then this Low back exam case study. Emails are 1 week apart to give you time to try out the information. Don't worry it will all come Enjoy! Sebastian

In teaching motion, with and without weights, there are clues to see if the lifter's tension is being lost or not. Tension is what protects our body from harm during lifts and loads of the outside world. Squatting, Deadlifting, Pressing and much more require tension to move the weight and provide a safeguard against aches and pain. Tension needs to be taught. I'll cover it in this podcast. Here's the link for the document and the video I mentioned. It will not be the first email you get. It will be the 3rd that comes 14 days after the hip email. The first will be Dynamic Hip Evaluation, the Dynamic Shoulder Evaluation, Tension Clues & Cues and then this Low back exam case study. Emails are 1 week apart to give you time to try out the information. Don't worry it will all come Enjoy! Sebastian

December is the month of giving, in this podcast episode I put together my clinical pearls of shoulder evaluation from the clinicians. I've been blessed to have some great mentors in showing me how to test shoulders using the standard orthopedic and ROM testing, yet adding a dynamic aspect to the exam to see beyond reasonable doubt if this person with a shoulder issue will respond well to corrective exercise loading or manual therapy. This month on the podcast, allow me to give back. This should work in most cases of: Subacrominal impingement Swimmer's shoulder Tendonitis cases of the rotator cuff Possible grade 1 labrums Upper trap tightness Pain with sleeping on the shoulder Bursitis AMBRI shoulders Here's the link to access the document and the video I mentioned in the podcast. It will not be the first email you get. It will be the second that comes 7 days after the hip email.

December is the month of giving, in this podcast episode I put together my clinical pearls of hip evaluation. I've been blessed to have some great mentors in showing me how to work with hip/ groin pain efficiently, without the use of much manual therapy. Allow me to give back. This should work in most cases of: Hip Impingement (FAI) "Sports Hernias" Adductor Strains Pectineus Strains Piriformis "Syndrome" Trochanteric Bursitis Hip Flexor "Syndrome" Access the document and video I mentioned HERE To access the video, please use my email opt in (don't worry I won't sell your email or send you crap you won't care about). Through this email series, you'll get access to all of the clinical pearls I wish I would have known in my first 5 years of practice, as well as special offers for any future seminars I teach, "bro-sesh" meet ups, and video training.  

Recently I asked if some student listeners would be willing to share their experiences of how they use the information they learn on this podcast within their schooling. I posted the request on Instagram and had a flood of people ask to be on the show to share.  So, I thought it would be interesting to spend some time over a few months on learning what the listeners are saying! I learned a few things along the way :) Hopefully this interview is empowering for you as well. SHOW NOTES   Reach Max Masood @mookwood24 on Instagram   Phillip Snell's FYOB Course at SCU

Recently I asked my listeners about what they would like to see more of in this show in the coming year. A popular suggestion was MORE CASE STUDIES. You asked and I will provide. This case study is of a person who came into my office with on-going piriformis region burning/ ache that increased with turning, sitting, running and squatting. She had already been treated with a battery of soft tissue work (Active Release and Graston), chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, glute strengthening, rest and stretching. Long story short, she was reported a 75% improvement within 7 days with my suggestions.

We all have heard about "return to play" but are we really returning our patient to "play" or are we returning them to exercise. The thing is many people don't really care about exercise itself. They care about how the exercise makes them feel. Why not just return them to a playful activity that also accomplishes the same as the boring exercise? In this podcast, I cover this topic at length. This will be useful to movement providers as they assist patients to regain a healthily, happy life. I Will Beat Back Pain Book
