Hey everybody, welcome back to episode nine, part two of Behind the Sports Medicine podcast. In this episode, Anthony and I talk about the challenges of managing sleep patterns in athletes, especially when they’re traveling across different time zones. We then go on to talk about how we can use tracking systems like WHOOP and Oura Ring to help monitor those sleep patterns and other metrics for performance. We then discuss the role of team physicians and how that is important in our ability to be able to come to certain decision-making when it comes to returning athletes to activity.We also discuss about how mentorship is very important in our field of athletic training and how we develop as professionals. We then close out to talk about advising young professionals to be patient. They need to be open-minded and willing to learn in order to succeed in this profession. So thank you all for tuning in and I hope you enjoy this episode.
