Wellness Wednesday

Check Out Our First Episode of Our Podcast PT Perspective!!!
Be sure to check out our monthly podcast where we cover a muscle and muscle group and related sports injuries to that specific area.

Our podcast has arrived! This month's podcast covers the lattisimus dorsi and how to avoid injuries to that specific muscle and muscle region through a series of strengthening and stretching exercises covered. We talk to Tim Russell PTA,CSCS about how the Mets baseball organization could possibly change their strength and conditioning protocol in order to avoid further lat injuries to their star pitching staff. We also delve into a case study with Chad Blomquist DPT that covers how lat injuries can even affect elite olympic sprinters, and how the lats are vital in long distance running as well. This 30 minute podcast covers just about everything you didn't know, and need to know, about the lats and how to avoid injuring them in sport-specific depth. Links for the podcast can be found here:


The video below is the supplement to our podcast and covers a quick, but in depth, overview of the lats including their function in the cardinal planes along with their anatomical positioning as well
