British Journal of Sports Medicine (BJSM) is a multi-media information portal that provides original research, reviews and debate relating to clinically-relevant aspects of sport and exercise medicine. We contribute to innovation (research), education (teaching and learning) and knowledge translation (implementing research into practice and policy). We use web, print, video and audio material to serve the international sport and exercise medicine community.

In this BJSM Podcast, we host Associate Professor Hanna Lindblom, who is a physiotherapist, researcher, and lecturer at Linkoping University in Sweden. 

We discuss Hanna’s paper, which evaluated the preventive efficacy of an extended version of the Knee Control injury prevention exercise program compared with an adductor strength program in amateur adolescent and adult male and female football (soccer) players. 

Coaches and player representatives received a printed and digital program material, and a practical workshop to show them how to use the programs. 

The novelty of this trial is they also compared the extended Knee Control to a second comparison group; where the teams were where the teams already used a self-selected program and did not receive workshop or program material. Many of these comparison teams (50%) said they were self-using the old Knee Control program, providing a “real world” comparison and proven benefits of the Extended Knee Control program. 

Hanna has hands-on experience designing and delivering injury prevention in a range of sports and has some great advice for clinicians looking to implement Knee Control and similar programs in amateur sports settings.

In this podcast, Brooke Patterson hosts Dr Erik Denison (PhD, Research Fellow Monash University) and Neil Hay (Rugby Victoria President) about a trial published in the BJSM which tested the effectiveness of an education program delivered by professional rugby players designed to stop homophobic language. They discuss openly and honestly the challenges in changing behaviour in community sport. It is not too often we get to chat to sports administrators more broadly about what is needed to drive change – whether it be related to health, safety, inclusion, or diversity. Should we be using the carrot or stick? What other strategies might work? What is your role as a clinician in creating a safe environment?

On this episode of the AMSSM Sports Medcast, host Dr. Jake Wessels, MD, is joined by Dr. Katie Rizzone, MD, MPH, and Dr. Megan Burleson, DO, to discuss the upcoming 2023 Collaborative Research Network (CRN) Research Summit on Justice, Equity and Inclusion.

Dr. Burleson and Dr. Rizzone are members of Summit Planning Committee for the one-day conference, which takes place Friday, April 28, in Phoenix, AZ. This conference, will emphasize specific areas within sports and exercise medicine where health disparities have been previously identified or where they need to be further investigated. It will also highlight best practices for conducting meaningful research in the field of sports and exercise medicine through an equity lens.

In this conversation, they address the following topics and questions:
* Origin and mission of the Collaborative Research Network
* The primary aims of the 2023 CRN Research Summit
* The current lack of available research regarding health disparities and how this conference seeks to explore those topics
* Some of the potential outcomes and future research directions of the Summit, and why they will be based on the conversations that happen during the conference
* The inclusive nature and applicability of the Research Summit, especially for clinicians who are not heavily involved in research
* Some of the biggest surprises the organizers have experienced while preparing for the Research Summit and the biggest highlights to look forward to

In-person and virtual attendance options are still available for the summit. Find complete details about the Research Summit and register here: https://annualmeeting.amssm.org/researchsummit.php

Using Nutrition to Optimize Performance with Dr. Stacy Sims. EP#530

Dr Kerry Costello and Dr Deepak Kumar discuss a BSJM paper that investigated gait and physical activity predictors of cartilage worsening in people with knee osteoarthritis from the MOST study, using a machine learning model. Kerry and Deepak do a brilliant job of explaining the biomechanical variables, and the advantages of machine learning, and what these findings might mean for clinicians treating people with knee osteoarthritis.

At the 6 th International Patellofemoral Pain Research Retreat held in Milwaukee in October 2019, Erin Macri pulled four clinician-scientists (Dr. Simon Lack, Dr. David M. Bazett-Jones, Dr. Gretchen Salsich,
Dr. Christian Barton) into the ring, with a goal of teasing out key concepts and providing guidance on how to incorporate dynamic knee valgus into the evaluation and treatment of individuals with
patellofemoral pain. Should dynamic knee valgus always be treated? Find out in this episode.

Language, and how we use it, has a powerful influence on driving performance and clinical outcomes. Nick Winkelman, Head of Athletic Performance & Science for the Irish Rugby Football Union, has spent considerable time studying how effective communication can enhance performance. During this podcast with Dr Sean Carmody, Nick draws on the content from his book The Language of Coaching: The Art & Science of Teaching Movement to assess how visual cues and metaphors can be applied to improve your clinical or coaching practice.

There has been a huge shift in golfers over the last 10 to 15 years with many more golfers at the top of the game such as Tiger Woods, Rory Mcllroy and Brooks Koepka focusing on Strength and Conditioning (S&C) to improve performance.
COVID-19 has stopped many sporting events and has provided some a unique opportunity to focus on S&C. Bryson DeChambeau took full advantage of this putting on large amounts of muscle and is the latest golfer to demonstrate the benefits of S&C in golf performance. In this podcast Dan Coughlan explains to Will Wynter Bee the shift in S&C in golf and how the different S&C programmes used by tour players can improve performance while minimising injury risk. He also discusses the S&C set up on the European tour.
