Excited to present again. Always wanted to help demistify some of the complexities around low back pain. Things I wish I knew when I graduated.
Last presentation of the day, too, so the pressure is on 😄

New paper out. Those who met the criteria for RTS did not experience more injuries if they returned before 9 months or not. Also those who met the criteria were more likely to return to sport.

Is 9 months the sweet spot for male athletes to return to sport after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction?
Objective Most studies examining the time to return to sport (RTS) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) do not account for the athlete’s physical readiness. This study aimed to inves...

No need to try and be super specific with SMT, not that we can anyway.
No need for a one must-do SMT. Do what you and the patient are comfortable with, explain what is likely/unlikely happening, and if you don't want to do it, don't really have to, either.

This year it'll be on taking some of the complexity out of low back pain.
A fun change of pace from everything shoulder 😄

If you're a runner, you may have heard the advice to avoid heel striking, and that it's better to forefoot strike, either in terms of running economy and/or injury risk. With the goal of less fearmongering in 2025, let's be clear here. There is no bad way. Heel striking is very common

Bad form does not cause injury.
Read that again.
Bad form isn't necessarily bad when lifting and it likely isn't the cause of injuries. Form matters the most for efficiency, but not for injury. How prepared your tissues are to experience the loads placed upon it will play a big role in that.
