- Don’t do this. The cervical spine is not built to tolerate high compressive loads like this. If you want to strengthen your neck, do it without putting load through the top of your head🚨Canelo Alvarez strengthening the neck with his entire body weight ‼️ 🚨
00:00Readers added contextNeck strengthening is best done using a variety of exercises to strengthen different muscles in the neck. Additionally, the exercise in the video may cause harm to those whose neck (and its muscles, vertebrae, or spinal cord) are weakened. health.harvard.edu/pain/strength-… - No clue what ‘internal lateral sprain’ means and I’m a sports medicine doctor 🤷🏼♂️🚨🇪🇸 Spanish federation confirm Pedri suffers an internal lateral sprain to his left-knee. His Euros are over, more tests will follow.
Readers added contextThe injury sustained by Pedri is correctly identified as an inner ligament stretch of the knee. It is important to note that there is no injury referred to as an internal lateral sprain. transfermarkt.com/pedri/verletzu…Readers added context they thought people might want to knowReaders added contextThe term "Internal lateral sprain" appears to be a mistranslation from Spanish. The correct English term for "esguince lateral interno de rodilla" (internal lateral knee sprain) is Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) Sprain. This is a genuine injury recognized in sports medicine. ilmessaggero.it/AMP/en/pedri_s… - Hear me out…this whole ‘I don’t care’ attitude is getting to be a bit much and kind of weird, no?Nikola Jokic says he lost his Finals MVP trophy: "I really don't know. I left in the equipment manager’s room and it's not there anymore. So I don't know." (via @malika_andrews)
- Replying to @CobratateDefinitely him. Going through some heart problems myself and can’t do intense exercise atm, but thanks for asking
- This. Is. Normal. The media thinks orthopedics is still living in the 1950sGoogle says most people are put in a cast or walking boot for 12 weeks after Achilles surgery. But Aaron Rodgers had his surgery just two and a half weeks ago and is already walking like this. It's crazy that he might actually be back this season.
- Crazy how a “professional wrestler” wants to start a debate with me about his electrolyte drink. But if the replies weren’t turned off maybe we could 🤷🏼♂️Crazy how even a “sports medicine doctor” can’t tell the difference between Sodium and Potassium The referenced 400mg of Electrolytes is the potassium in PRIME you idiot
- No Don’t listen to this guy. Please. Unnecessary fear mongering. Elite athletes don’t need this done and neither do youAny NBA player who isn’t preventatively injecting their Achilles tendons with stem cells every 6-12 months under ultrasound guidance is begging for an injury. These Achilles tears are 100% preventable. SMH.
- This is an insanely irresponsible thing to post without a reference for the dataProbably nothing.
Readers added contextCardiologists have told the AP there have been instances of athletes experiencing sudden cardiac death and cardiac arrest long before the COVID-19 pandemic and that they have not observed the dramatic increase alleged on social media apnews.com/article/fact-c… - Absolute garbage. Seriously, wth is this??Shaq and Charles Barkley can’t stop laughing at Anthony Davis for leaving game in a wheel chair with a head injury
- Yes. Can’t make any case for player safety if you don’t correctly enforce an ejection hereShould Joel Embiid have been ejected for this?
- Nobody sabotages the WNBA like the WNBABREAKING: the WNBA has suspended Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve for Game 4 of the semifinals
