Many think osteoarthritis (OA) is a 'wear and tear' problem. While the instigator may be traumatic (think ACL injury), framing it as wear-and-tear can cause patients to think exercise will make things worse. So understanding why cartilage loves load is important...🧵👇 1/7

Sleep is the best performance enhancer this is. Yet, many of us neglect or lack the recommended dose. We all know we need to sleep more. Instead of telling you that, let's look at the science of sleep and how to get better at it: THREAD on Sleep 👇👇

Solidarity🏳️‍⚧️wholeheartedly stand with trans players youth families friends&allies. You deserve better, you deserve to be included in a sport that values inclusivity. Hope @IrishRugby reconsider excluding a minority group & maintain case basis so the sport we love truly is for all

From one of the most inclusive sports to one of the least in 7 votes. 🤔

The RFU Council has voted in favour of updating its gender participation policy for rugby in England from the start of the 2022/23 season with 33 in favour, 26 against and 2 abstaining. A majority but perhaps not as convincing a majority as many assumed.

Coaches who walk for cardio probably also: Think McDonald's is an acceptable date night with their spouse. Count "just the tip" towards their body count.

Walking is not cardio.

Do your young athletes a favor Make this one of the things they work on and get better with Can’t overstate enough how valuable it is to improve landing on one leg & handling ground forces Start two legs, work to one. Start VERY low & progress accordingly

Programming 101 Guidelines for Increasing Weight Its as simple as "lets go up 5 lbs" or "lets add 1 rep" The key is progressive resistance. Going up 5 lbs a wk moves you up 260 lbs a yr. Start with an empty bar x5 and lift 305 in a yr? There's no hurry. strengthcoach.com/public/56789-F…
