Tennessee Walk-On Dr. Tanner Dobrucky On Chiropractic Care, Psoriasis & Zac Efron | Sidetracked

Dr. Tanner Dobrucky is a chiropractor and sports performance specialist based in Richmond, Virginia — and his path to get here is anything but conventional. He joins Jack Fitzpatrick for this week's episode of Sidetracked.Tanner grew up in Powhatan, transferred to Freeman High School his senior year, walked on at the University of Tennessee with no scholarship offer, made the team after a second tryout that almost didn't happen, played for three head coaches including Josh Heupel who put him on scholarship his fifth year, and then graduated and completely pivoted to chiropractic care after psoriasis led him to a chiropractor who told him to stop eating gluten — and it worked.We get into all of it — what chiropractic care actually is beyond cracking backs, how your nervous system controls your muscles and why that matters for athletes, the ATP and red blood cell conversation that will make you rethink how you fuel your body, what it was like being a walk-on at Neyland Stadium, his first ever game at Alabama, and why he and his wife — a Doctor of Physical Therapy — sometimes butt heads professionally.Plus The Three Questions — including a Zac Efron reveal that genuinely surprised us.Dr. Dobrucky practices in Richmond, VA.
