Shoulder Articles

Good Morning! Happy Monday!!!

Today (and the next two Mondays) will be shortened newsletters with my favorite research articles for you to check out. And that is because…. The National Physical Therapy Exam! So excited…

I am in the midst of the grind and will be putting my head down and locking in on studying for this exam because it is a difficult exam, but doable with the right studying strategy. Sooo, I hope you enjoy these articles the next couple weeks and we can build off of them after the exam as well as move forward in breaking down off season training!
