Bridging the Gap between Research and Return to Play Protocol

Course description

POINTS TO CONSIDER

  • The need to cover gaps between rehab, conditioning and sport science
  • Are we preparing our athletes for hand-over to other disciplines?
  • Getting back to the basics of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics
  • Bridging the gaps between research and clinical practice 

AREAS OF NEGLECT AND MISPERCEPTIONS 

THE FEET

  • Why are we neglecting the only structures that touch the ground during movement?
  • Importance of the fee
  • Demonstration of foot strengthening exercises

CORE TRAINING 

  • Are we getting this right?
  • Dynamic vs static core training
  • Demonstration of dynamic core strengthening programme 

STRENGTH 

  • Do we really understand what strength is?
  • Understanding the Principle of Dynamic correspondence
  • Distinguishing between types of muscle contractions vs strength
  • Distinguishing between 9 different types of strength
  • Strength assessment
    • Current strength measuring systems – how useful are they really?
    • New ideas for assessment and training of strength 

BIOMECHANICS 

  • Do we really understand the biomechanics of basic movements (running, jumping, throwing)
  • Are the biomechanics for different movements really that different?
