This week on the podcast is Brent George.
Brent is a physical therapist who has been involed in the physical therapy community for over 32 years. She is the co-owner of G4 Athlete, along with her wife. Brent has worked with professional sports teams, such as the Seattle Seahawks and the Seattle Mariners. He has also worked with big name shoe brands, such as NIKE and Brooks, in order to optimize the biomechanical design of their shoes. So, in short, Brent has had a lot of experience in the world of physical therapy.
So on this episode, Brent had a lot of amazing things to say and I have to say, if I was a runner who I was injured or maybe just wanting to learn about what I can incorporate into my training, I would find this episode to be pure gold, or even if you are an advanced runner and want to take your ancillary work to the next level, this episode is for you.
Brent and I chat about his thoughts on the evolution of physical therapy and injury treatment, the importance of strength and mobility for runners, why you should make strength and mobility work event specific, the role of shoes in injury prevention, his thoughts on minimalist shoes, and much more.
A little disclaimer before we get into the shoe, I apologize if my voice is a bit nasal. I’ve been sick for the past few days, so apologize for any sniffles or just sounding a little iffy. But ayy, I’m here, and nothing can stop The Sunday Shakeout.
