Dr. Tyler Nelson\u2019s New Injury Prevention and Warm-Up Protocol
In the episode, Tyler explains how we should be warming up our youth teams (and ourselves) in order to make climbing sessions more effective, and more importantly, for injury prevention.
Once again, Tyler pored over the research and came up with a very progressive way of doing things \u2013 much differently than what we\u2019re used to. Gone are the days of just warming up for climbing by doing some easy climbing: there\u2019s actually a better way.
Tyler Nelson has a lot of qualifications, so I\u2019m going to let his\xa0website\xa0sum those up for you:
Tyler is a second generation chiropractor whose father was a leader in chiropractic sports medicine for many years. In graduate school he did a dual doctorate and masters degree program in exercise science with an emphasis on tendon loading. He completed his masters degree at BYU and was a physician for the athletics department for 4 years out of school. He currently is the owner of Camp4 Human Performance where he treats clients through his license as a chiropractic physician. He also is an instructor for the Performance Climbing Coach seminar series and a certified instructor for gobstrong. When he\u2019s not working he\u2019s climbing or hiking outside with his family.\xa0\xa0
You can find Tyler in Salt Lake City at his clinic,\xa0Camp 4 Human Performance,\xa0where he tests athletes, creates training programs, and treats all kinds of athletes for injuries.
Tyler\u2019s ability to question what we take for granted and provide relevant research is unparalleled, and I was psyched to hear about this new way of doing things. He is well-spoken and a wealth of knowledge about how the human body responds to climbing and training.
