in Episode 23 of the Podcast I talk to the legend that is Ger Keane. I got an insight into how Ger got into the Physical Therapy Industry relatively later in life and the impact he has had since has been massive.
From his start in the world renown Ger Hartmann Clinic where he worked with Elite athletes all around the world including former UK athlete Paula Radcliff a long with many more. We discuss the level someone like Paula trained at and what the difference is between a really good athlete and player to a top level athlete.
Honestly guys you need to listen to some of the stories, they gave me goosebumps anyways. Ger went onto talk about his experience with the Kerry Team and working with players and how satisfying it is to see the players succeed. Ger is a very humble and modest human and states that he is merely the "bus driver" leading the guys and ladies to their destination and that they do all the hard work.
He mentions a lovely story about his relationship with Kieran Donaghy which you have to listen out for too after he was on the brink of retiring to come back to All Ireland glory. Spin tingling stuff guys.
He talks about how witnessing and working 1st hand with an Olympic Kenyan runner in a Sauna helped him use similar methods with Colm "Gooch" Cooper in his rehab from his torn ACL and knee fracture. It was fascinating stuff guys so jump on and have a listen.
Ger doesn't just work with athletes, he works wightith the general public and anybody who needs him. He is inspired by his clients who arrive into him every day and his passion for his work is infectious.
An amazing episode from an amazing human being. I have been treated by Ger myself and his positivity during my injury and rehab helped me massively.
Enjoy guys, please share an tag and drop a review on Apple podcasts as well so we can get this out to as many people as possible. :)
Thanks Michael
