ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
We sit down with Diwesh Poudyal, Director of Fitness at Champion PT & Performance. Diwesh breaks down how his team blends performance and physical therapy under one roof, and how the 1080 Sprint 2 has become a central tool across return to play, arm care, and high-level athletic development.
We dig into how his use of motorized resistance evolved from basic resisted sprinting to precise manipulation of eccentric and concentric load, velocity, and direction. From MLB arm care and isokinetics to ACL rehab, assisted sprinting, and multidirectional work, this episode shows what happens when good PT principles meet intentional performance training.
We cover:
-Early learning curve with the 1080 and systemizing its use
-Blending PT and performance in one integrated model
-Isokinetic arm care for professional baseball players
-Using eccentric overload for shoulder robustness
-Load-velocity profiling for sprint and power development
-Assisted sprinting for acceleration, decel, and high-speed exposure
-Multidirectional drills for field sport athletes
-Broad jumps, bounds, and horizontal loading in RTP
-Using objective data to build confidence post ACL
-Reverse engineering performance from late-stage RTP demands
More episodes coming with coaches integrating performance, rehab, and data to build better athletes and smarter systems.
