[QUOTE="GTJason, post: 8268, member: 94"] Okay nowhere in my previous post did I question his toughness. While I have never played football I am quite knowledgeable in mechanism of injury which is really what my comments are about, not football. Neither of you refuted that he should be moving his feet. Maybe it was because he was training too hard and got tired and kept training. Either way it is a result of poor biomechanics and I will not concede this point - likely the fact that he keeps getting injured is due to that. Part of my job is figuring out why soldiers who carry 80 lbs on their backs and cover 30 miles of rugged terrain in a day keep getting injured. These injuries range from PF, IT Band Syndrome, Back pain, Torn Ligaments in the knee, and Sports Hernias. Sports Hernias happen when a load is carried off of your center of gravity for too long - biomechanics. We have an extremely high rate of success with retraining patients with biomechanics issues - success defined by not repeating the injury. The problem with recovery and rehab from an injury is PTs try to return strength lost rather than fixing the underlying problem. It's just like taking blood pressure pills instead of eating healthier, working out, and removing stressers from your life. I realize in football someone else has something to say about whether you get injured or not, but for this injury the defensive player is simply a dynamic load - you don't need to have played football for that. Also my patient population never plays at 100%. [/QUOTE]
