Prevent injury, relieve back pain and learn to be savvy with Physical Therapist, Dr. Tugg Kargbo

If you’ve ever wanted a one-hour consultation with a physical therapist, today is your lucky day. I’m speaking with Dr. Lesley "Tugg" Kargbo and he just packs the house with simple (you know I love simple), applicable ways to prevent injury, what to do with back pain, and we get into the psychology behind training, injuries, and treatment.

We discuss:

• What kinds of injuries we see in patients from overuse and recommendations to those patients who want to continue doing what they love but need to adjust
• The importance of asking yourself what your goal is
• Simple exercises to treat back pain at home
• The psychology of being savvy with your body
• Simple recommended exercises for injury prevention
• Approaches to take for squats, lunges, plyometric exercises and more if you have bad knees
• How to know when it’s time to call a professional
• Strategies to address weight loss and weight management
• Can you see a physical therapist without visiting an orthopedic doctor first?
