Three injury buckets keep showing me the same overlooked deficit: athletic groin pain, ACL and hamstring strains. Most rehab plans never go near it.
Back recording solo episodes after a few months off. Quick update on what's changed at Petey Performance, then straight into what I've been seeing in my recent in-person sessions.
Three different injury presentations. One pattern keeps showing up across all of them. Until now, the issue has been unidentified and unaddressed.
Also walking through a recent case that went from chronic pain and orthotics 24/7 to back on the pitch at close to nine metres per second. And a few things on the transition from solo operator to leading a team — the parts nobody really talks about.
