Fatigue is Where Injury Occurs
You may have noticed that Power Athlete has been on a bit of an ACL kick recently. If there were a joint injury pandemic, this would be it. With nearly 120,000 ACL injuries per year in the states alone and an up to 32% re-injury rate, it’s a real bitch. Dr Adam Anz, an orthopaedic surgeon of the infamous Andrews Institute, joins us to provide another perspective on injury, including the use of stem cell therapy and blood flow restriction. What can capillary refill rates tell us about recovery? What can we do to prevent our kids from suffering catastrophic injury? AND if it does occur, what possible benefits can result? Movie reviews and occasionally talking to people smarter than us…that’s what Power Athlete does.

Empower Your Performance
If you have questions for Dr Anz, he’s actually offered what sounds like his personal email address: Anz.adam.w@gmail.com so please no superstitious email chains or Nigerian prince propositions. A more formal “patient form” is also available on andrewsinstitute.com/physicians.
