The Death Wrap

The Death Wrap

If you are an ATC or PT, chances are you will have an athlete who sustains a deep quad contusion at some point. Here, my friend Jesse Dimick, ATC/PTA demonstrates a technique he uses with his athletes as the Clinic Director at sportsandpt.com in the Boston, MA area. Jesse can be found on Twitter @jdimick Death Wrap for Deep Quad Contusions Video: http://youtu.be/mOQ2v_NjppA Supply List QDA (tuff skin) 2 inch elastikon (AC tape) pre wrap CALLCENTERCAFE.COM/FACEBOOK/getting a loan with poor credithttp://mostwatertraining.com/mac_mac/ 2 inch stretch tape Application Spray area with tuff skin. Lay down pre wrap. Cut half strip of Elastikon.  You do not want to go completely around extremity with these strips. Have athlete brace themselves because you will want to lay down Elastikon strips with some force.When applying to quad have a tape roll under heel to keep knee slightly flexed and relaxed.  Pull strips to full tension and apply over injured area overlapping strips approximately 1-2 inches above and below the contusion. Complete wrap by covering the area with stretch tape with mid tension. This wrap works best when applied immediately after the injury and kept on for 12 hours until the first treatment. The athlete will keep it on overnight until treatment the next day.  I normally re-apply and use for a total of 48-72 hours.

Interview with Bob McMillan of The Come Alive Project

Interview with Bob McMillan of The Come Alive Project

I was “introduced” to Bob McMillan through his guest post on the MovNat website awhile back. I was so excited as I read his story, and watched his video, that I sent him an email to thank him for sharing. I also commended him on not only staying active in his early 70’s; but, also encouraging other seniors to get outdoors and play. What I didn’t know was that Bob lives right here in Northern Virginia! He was kind enough to do an email interview with me, and I look forward to meeting him in person very soon! Bob McMillan is the founder of The Come Alive Project.  Bob has been an evangelist for senior fitness since the early 1990s.  Bob believes that with the Baby Boomers coming of age, the time is now for a real advocate for senior fitness to establish the kind of programs offered by The Come Alive Project. The Come Alive Project is a no-nonsense site for seniors over 60 who want to look better, feel better, and come alive for the rest of their lives. Interview with Bob McMillan of The Come Alive Project   1)   Tell us your personal story. How did you become interested in helping seniors “Come Alive”? About 10 years ago I proposed a senior fitness concept to Patrick Avon of the Sergeant’s Program, one of the nation’s first “boot camp” style fitness programs.  I had been an exercise nut all my life and as I got older, I felt “seniors” were not being served well by the fitness community. Patrick Avon and I worked together for a year; but, the program was eventually cancelled.  Then I formed Act 2 Fitness for people over 55.  It never really took off.  I returned to my previous life  for a few years and […]
