Episode 60: The Case for Retiring Flexibility as a Major Component of Physical Fitness with Dr. Jim Nuzzo

from ClinicalAthlete Podcast · host ClinicalAthlete

Is flexibility testing valid? What evidence is it even founded on? Should it be retired as a major component of physical fitness? Should we de-emphasize static stretching in exercise prescriptions? We discuss these things and more with Dr. Jim Nuzzo, who recently wrote a thought-provoking paper on the topic.  Connect with Dr. Jim Nuzzo: Twitter: @JamesLNuzzo ResearchGate: http://bit.ly/36IEtTJ Google Scholar: http://bit.ly/35FhRSQ Here is the paper that we discussed on the show: http://bit.ly/2QFBG8e Follow Quinn, John, Jared, & ClinicalAthlete on IG: @quinn.henochdpt @rebuildstrongeronline @jaredmaynard_pt @clinicalathlete Check out details about the upcoming CALU Summit in September 2020! www.calusummit.com You can find other resources on athlete health and performance posted on the ClinicalAthlete website for free, inside of the ClinicalAthlete Forum, at our courses, and through ClinicalAthlete Coaching! https://www.clinicalathlete.com
