Elliot Cockrell is the lead Sport Therapist at Plymouth
Raiders, a professional basketball team in the British Basketball
League (BBL), a personal trainer at Marjon University Plymouth's
Sport and Health Centre. But not forgetting is also the founder of
Machine Rehab.
In the episode we spoke about:
- How has his role evolved over the last 3 months?
- Detraining, has anyone brought this up? (There are many
variations of this); but people have asked what can I do in this
time (want to improve or feel like they have lost) but some of the
questions have been; how do I improve my vertical high, improve my
running time, recommendations to support a transition to a
different type of training
- How do you create a stimulus with only access to a home gym
or bodyweight?
- Strength is the best form of injury prevention
- The Copenhagen exercise prevents abductor injuries ("So
let's bulletproof them")
- Cause for concern with shoulder issues
- Why are the back and rotator cuffs overlooked within
training?
- Ethan Pace asked 'Is it productive or counter-productive to
train while sore?'
- Why do people struggle with a deload phase? (Lowering of
weight to help with sustainable results)
- Why runners and/or cyclists shouldn't increase their mileage
by more than 10% a week
- Why is it a bad idea to foam roller the IT Band? (And what
you should do instead)
