ACL Injuries Up 400 Percent in Young Athletes!

Athletes, Warriors, and anyone who love them! We are in code red in incidence of injury in sport and life.
ACL's (Anterior Cruciate Ligaments ) are getting huge publicity in part because of its commonality among professional athletes some of whom will suffer these injuries in front of a National TV audience.
Watch this news report from Texas from 2015 that illustrates how severe this epidemic is and some of the ways that you can help prevent or reduce the chances of this kind of injury.
-Natekidaclinjuries041312_722x406_2222766458.jpg


How do you prepare your young athlete or seasoned vet to avoid ACL and other injuries? By engaging in a year round training program that helps him/her prepare for their sport. If a good strength coach or personal trainer is not feasible or affordable; train online with US Sports Online Strength and Conditioning.Saving money, time and possibly you or your child's knees, ankles, shoulders, etc.,Go to http://www.fitnessgenerator.com/ussportsradioand fill out the fitness profile form to get started.

Once we have determined a course of action to include ACL injury prevention, then part of your year round program will include our ACL rehab strength and power program described below:

Custom Strength and Power Programs
These are a group of Custom Strength and Power Programs with some great additions and variations to the original Strength and Power Programs.

The programs with the word "Olympic" in the title will have the Olympic lifts (power clean, snatch etc) added in. The programs with "Advanced" in the title will use something called "phase jumping". Phase jumping means it includes a set that calls for one rep at an intensity level that is 5-10% higher than the work sets. This set has been added at the end of the descending warmup for the "bigger" or primary strength exercises like squat, power clean, bench etc. The set combinations for these exercises appear rather long, but usually half of them are actually warmup based! These phase jumping sets allow the body to neurally adapt to the training poundages that will be experienced in the next phase of training in the workout.

Included as one of these Custome Programs is an ACL "Functional" Rehab Programthat is designed to bring strength levels back up over a 12 week time period. This ACL Rehab Program should not be done unless full range of motion exists in the knee joint, and physician clearance has occurred.

How Did He Make That Catch?


Kelvin Benjamin (WR Carolina Panthers), is one of the most promising young players in all of Football
Much of the world saw this in one play as he literally TOOK a pass away from defending Super Bowl Champion DB's Richard Sherman (All Pro and one of the Highest Paid DB's in the game),  and Safety Earl Thomas albeit in a losing effort against the Seattle Seahawks.

Now, when I see a physically impressive athlete I immediately go and find out  where and who he was coached by to get that strong. That's not just talent, size, and speed folks! This young man has done his strength and conditioning work! Most likely year round.
Sure enough this Florida State Alum had a pretty good strength and conditioning program to benefit from as evidenced in this video

Now this small glimpse into a top notch strength and conditioning program gives you a picture of what will be expected of you, your sons and daughters should If you have the opportunity to play any sport at the highest level.

"I started the NFL Combine program about 7 weeks ago. Since then I have noticed a tremendous increase in my strength and muscle stamina. All my lifts have gone up in weight and repetitions. I have gained about 4 lbs. of muscle while dropping my body fat by 2%. As a running back I need to be in top physical condition. I’ve found that out of all the programs I have done in the past, this one is the most beneficial for preparing me for football." Justin Football player George Mason University.

Iron Supplementation In Athletes - Current Recommendations



From our friends at the I.S.S.A
Like to sample Iron and other supplements to see if they are right for you?
Click here for more supplement information
-Nate
 
By I.S.S.A.
There is still debate in the literature on whether or not endurance athletes tend to have low iron stores. In this article, we propose that endurance athletes really are at risk of becoming iron deficient due to an imbalance between absorption of dietary iron and exercise- induced iron loss. The purpose of this article is to present a critical review of the literature on iron supplementation in sport. The effect of iron deficiency on performance, its diagnosis and suggestions for treatment are also discussed.
Studies of the nutritional status of athletes in various disciplines have shown that male, but not female, athletes clearly achieve the recommended dietary intake of iron (10 to 15 mg/day). This reflects the situation in the general population, with menstruating women beings the main risk group for mild iron deficiency, even in developed countries. Whereas the benefit of iron supplementation in athletes with iron deficiency anaemia is well established, this is apparently not true for non- anaemic athletes who have exhausted iron stores alone (prelatent iron deficiency); most of the studies in the literature show no significant changes due to supplementation in the physical capacity of athletes with prelatent iron deficiency. However, the treatment protocols used in some of these studies do not meet the general recommendations for the optimal clinical management of iron deficiency, that is, with respect to adequate daily dosage, mode of administration and treatment period. For future studies, we recommend a prolonged treatment period (greater than or equal to 3 months) with standardised conditions of administration (use of a pharmaceutical iron preparation with known high bioavailability and a dosage of ferrous (Fe++) iron 100 mg/day, taken on an empty stomach).
We believe that there are sufficient arguments to support controlled iron supplementation in all athletes with low serum ferritin levels. Firstly, the development of iron deficiency is prevented. Secondly, the nonspecific upregulation of intestinal metal ion absorption is reverted to normal, thus limiting the hyperabsorption of potentially toxic lead and cadmium even in individuals with mild iron deficiency.
