Speaker 1 (00:03):
Time to visit with Jason Garrett, doctor Jayson Garrett from
a ROSTI. It's been a few weeks. I've been out,
he's been out. I was in Scotland and he was
doing some CrossFit and all that kind of stuff. I'm sure.
How's it going to Jason? How are you today?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Going well?
Speaker 1 (00:17):
How was the weather in Scotland's windy?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
I bet?
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Yeah, six or seven days, thirty five miles an hour,
thirty miles an hour wind. Yeah, we did not dodge
the wind. We didn't have a lot of good weather. However,
I did have some issues with walking about eighty miles
over there that time. And is it common to develop
some kind of Achilles tendonitis or achilles soreness after walking
(00:47):
that much?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Yeah, And it's usually dependent on your shoes or if
your biomechanics had changed, and the fact that you've had,
you know, foot surgery in the last several months could
definitely alter the way you move a little bit. Just
being off your feet a little bit and tighten up
some of that connect tissue. That's not totally unexpected, especially
if you're walking that much in golf shoes, which aren't
always as good as your normal walking shoes.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
All right, So when I would get done and as
long as I was moving, I was usually pretty good.
But then I would stop and go eat dinner or
you know, move around the place that we're staying in. Uh,
we can kind of be idle for a little while,
and then everything gets really super tight. Is that all
so common? And how do you prevent that?
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, that's a that's basically common for any kind of tendon.
It's usually they're not at risk for rupturing or tearing,
but they get inflamed and as long as you're moving,
it's okay. It's kind of pushing the inflammation around. As
soon as you stop, that fire keeps burning, and then
when you go to move that tendon gets really irritated.
You want to make sure you're icing it quite a bit.
(01:50):
You want to stretch it eccentrically, so like stretch it
as you're lengthening it with a little bit of body
weight on it. Sometimes, you know, taking some antime inflammatories
can help a little doesn't fixed problem, which just helps
you get through some of the pain. And then if
a dozen self resolve pretty quickly, then you need to
get it treated because those can become chronic pretty fast.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Yeah, I think I've experienced that just playing golf with
driving here in San Antonio in the cart, I get
in the car after I'm done, I drive home. It's
twenty thirty minute drive wherever I'm playing, and then I
get out of the car and I can barely walk
until I start moving around again. And then times at
times ten when you're walking instead of writing in a cart, yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Mean that's walking eighty miles is probably outside your normal. Yeah,
just like any any previous issue is going to be magnified.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Yeah, I think just in general, I feel better when
I'm moving around. And if I'm sitting in a chair
for a long period of time or I'm not kind
of active in getting up, everything tends to get tight.
So I got to work on that.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, that's true for everybody. The more you move in
a good, healthy way, the better they're going to be.
Don't sit down for too long.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
All right, Let's talk about some athletes who are having
some good news and bad news. Let's talk about show
a Otani. He is going to return to pitching soon.
They're kind of letting him throw a little bullpen stuff
here and there to see how the arm is coming.
Off to Tommy John surgery. He was able to get
back pretty quickly to hit. But what do you expect
(03:17):
when he comes back to pitching.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Well, I heard he's already throwing about ninety seven miles
an hour, so that's that's pretty close to his max velocity.
So he's doing that. And as long as there's no
chronic information or acute information where it's really tender and
hurts afterwards, that's a great time. I mean, he is
really close. It's just a matter of arm conditioning, you know,
getting to the point where he can throw eighty to
one hundred pitches at a pretty high velocity. So I
(03:42):
think he's pretty close. I think they're going to bring
him back, you know, not going to have him throw
eighty two hundred pitches right off the bat. But if
they can get him back forty fifty pitches and he
does pretty well you know by the but a month
or two should be pretty good to.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Go, all right. Caitlin Clark has missed a couple of
weeks because of a hamstring issue. Talk about recovering from
that and doing things so that it doesn't happen again.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yeah, these are tricky. It was supposed to be like
a two week issue. I think it's been going on
three and a half weeks or so, and I think
it was a quad pole as well. Much as the hamstring,
these tend to be pretty good until you reinjure them,
and you don't really know until you go full speed.
So I think she's probably feeling about one hundred percent.
She does't any pain notice function. If there wasn't any
(04:27):
pain or this function, there's no way they would consider
bringing her back right now. The thing about polls with
this kind of condition is they feel great until you
do just a little too much and then they unravel completely.
So there's not an exact science on when you're ready.
You just have to test it out and then try
a little more and then go full speed and see
(04:47):
if it holds up.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Is it common or uncommon for you to have both
a quad and a hamstring issue at the same time,
because obviously one's on top of the thigh and ones
behind it. And I've had some quad tightness before when
I were but I've been fortunate to have flexible hamstrings.
So is it common for athletes to get both?
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Now? Usually you only pull one, but she had some
preseason same thing a quad issue that they're saying is unrelated.
But I'm pretty sure it's related because if you had
a pre season quad issue and then you compensated and
pulled your hamstring and then stranger quad, it's probably related
but not common at all. But the fact that she
had this pre existing doesn't surprise me.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
All Right. I saw an ad that Shaquille O'Neal was
doing one of the seven thousand things that he endorses.
But now he's endorsing a grounding matt that he puts
on his bed before he goes to sleep, and he
sleeps on the grounding mat, So a is this a
good idea? And what is happening while he's sleeping on
that grounding mat.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Well, I'll just preface it with this, if Shaq recommends it,
it may or may not be any good. And he
also recommends a general insurance, which if you go to
rent a car, you can't rent a car with general insurance.
So I'm not sure the stuff he endorses though, is good.
But when it comes to grounding or earthing is what
they call it. It's been around for probably fifteen hundred
to two thousand years. It was used by the Chinese,
(06:06):
the Romans. It was used here in America two hundred
years ago. Basically, you're just trying to recharge your ions
with the surface of the earth, and so these grounding
bags they replicate that ion exchange between your body, which
is supposed to put you in a better state of inflammation,
can reduce some guide issues, give you more energy, help
you speak better. But instead of buying something like that,
(06:29):
if you want to see if it works, just walk
outside barefoot for about eight minutes every day and see
if your health benefits improved. Then if it does, then
go buy yourself a mat so you can do it
more consistently. But there's a lot of resource left out there.
It's becoming more mainstream that there's really no proof it works.
So it's still kind of in that it may work
or it may not stay.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Is there any risk involved in using it?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
No risk books, however, no downside, And if you believe
it works, even if it doesn't, it's gonna make you healthier.
Just the placebo effect is real. You can get to
like twenty percent maybe thirty percent of benefit from something
that's the placebo, which means it has no help benefit whatsoever.
But if you believe it the power of your mind
is really that powerful.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Awesome. All right, thanks Jason. We'll do it again next week.
I guess you're headed to work out today, sounding like
the car has stopped and you're ready to go sweat
for a while.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Yeah, that's pretty accurate. I'm ready to go get it on.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
All right, thanks Jason. Doctor Jason Garrett from a Rosti
joining us on the program today. All right, Coming up
next the New York Knicks. Ready fire Aim. That's all
I can say about them. They've struck out on the
two coaches that they think that they were gonna get
after firing TIBs. We'll talk about that next. It's the
andi average show on the ticket.
