As a coach, have you ever explained a skill to your athletes only to watch them fumble through it like they’re assembling an IKEA bookshelf without the instructions? (And let’s be real—half of us have done that with actual IKEA furniture, and it never ends well.) Teaching new skills isn’t about dumping all the pieces in front of them and hoping they figure it out. It’s about giving them a…

People Suddenly falling down who have COVID-19? We got to thinking, that more neurologic, isn't it?

*The Masterclass in Gait, with the Gait Guys join us monthly at: https://www.patreon.com/thegaitguys for the monthly Masterclass installment hour. Formal presentations, slides, videos, demos, deep dives on topics you will not hear anywhere but here ! We hit the gait, biomechanics, neurology and orthopedics of all of the gait topics we present. This is not for the weak and timid, this is the deep dive you have been waiting for. Join us while we turn our normal 50 minute presentations into 3.5 hours on a regular basis !

The 40$ Patreon level will give you 50% off the Masterclass and also get you the $20, $10, and 5$ Patreon level content. What a deal ! It will not be here forever so lock in now !

1.Current frameworks on running-related injury (RRI) aetiology emphasize the relation between exposure to training load, internal tissue loads, and tissue capacity; with tissue load exceeding its capacity being the key biological mechanism in the development of RRI. Despite this, . . .

3.The neuroinvasive potential of SARS‐CoV2 may play a rolein the respiratory failure of COVID‐19 patientshttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1002/jmv.25728 "The entry ofSARS‐CoV into human host cells is mediated mainly by a cellularreceptor angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which is ex-pressed in human airway epithelia, lung parenchyma, vascular endothelia, kidney cells, and small intestine cells." "Additionally, some patients withCOVID‐19 also showed neurologic signs, such as headache, nausea, and vomiting. Increasing evidence shows that coronaviruses are not always confined to the respiratory tract and that they may also invade the central nervous system inducing neurological diseases. The infection of SARS‐CoV has been reported in the brains from both patients and experimental animals, where the brainstem was heavily infected. (Experimental studies using transgenic mice revealed that either SARS‐CoV34or MERS‐COV,13when given in-tranasally, could enter the brain,possibly via the olfactory nerves,and thereafter rapidly spread to some specific brain areas including thalamus and brainstem) Furthermore, some coronaviruses have been demonstrated able to spread via a synapse‐connected route to the medullary cardiorespiratory center from the mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors in the lung and lower respiratory airways. *increasing evidenceshows that CoVs may first invade peripheral nerve terminals, and then gain access to the CNS via a synapse‐connected route" 4.Motor Learning https://journals.lww.com/acsm-essr/Fulltext/2013/01000/Changing_Up_the_Routine___Intervention_Induced.10.aspx 5.Ahead of the curve in the evolution of human feet

I previously wrote a review of The Brain Always Wins. Here’s an interesting quote I pulled from the book.

John experienced what is, for him, a quite common example of this at a Sport Performance Conference recently when colleagues began talking to him about muscle memory. As John explained, ‘The phrase is incorrectly used to describe the acquisition of motor movements and coordination, complex or…

Surprising New Role for Inhibition in the Cerebellum Discovered

Researchers at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience (MPFI) have discovered a new role for inhibition, regulating how and when motor learning is acquired in the cerebellum.

Almost everyone is familiar with the unique mixture of surprise and confusion that occurs after making a mistake during an everyday movement. It’s a fairly startling experience – stumbling on a step or…
