🧠 Evolution Ed Clinical Roundtable 🏃‍♂️

April 28th
7 PM PST | 8 PM MST | 10 PM EST

We’re diving into running-related injuries and performance with an expert panel bringing real-world clinical insight and practical application.

Featuring:
Devin Blessing, PT, DPT, OCS
Michael Herrera, PT, DPT, FDN-C
Special guest MD/ DO with expertise in sports medicine TBD

This isn’t surface-level talk—this is where clinical reasoning meets performance.

🔍 Discussion points will include:
• Bone stress injuries—early recognition, load management, and return-to-run progressions
• Workload management—how much is too much and how to scale intelligently
• Strength training for runners—what actually carries over to performance and injury reduction
• Shoe prescription—myths vs. what really matters clinically
• Tendon vs. bone vs. soft tissue considerations in runners
• Return-to-sport decision making and common mistakes

Whether you’re a clinician, coach, or athlete—this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Meet Evolution Denver’s new personal trainer and coach! Originally from San Antonio Texas, Adrian Flores has been in the fitness industry for 16 years. He discovered his love for fitness in high school where he would spend his lunch breaks in the weight room with his friends. It didn’t take long before his passion for health and fitness grew. From there he got his certification in personal training through the NFPT and began working with a wide range of demographics from professional athletes to desk jockeys at Facebook and Rackspace. Adrian specializes in strength training, golf performance, and myofascial release. His goal with his training is to not only help you reach your goals, but also to share his knowledge and have fun along the way. In his spare time he enjoys writing and performing standup comedy.

In rehab, it’s easy to get excited about rapid changes in pain, range of motion, or movement quality during a treatment session. But the bigger clinical question is always:

Do within-session improvements actually predict meaningful long-term outcomes?

Key discussion points:
🔹 When immediate symptom changes are clinically meaningful
🔹 When they may be temporary or non-predictive
🔹 The role of load tolerance and progressive adaptation
🔹 Communicating expectations with patients
🔹 Using short-term response to guide — not dictate — long-term treatment planning

These conversations matter. Clinical reasoning improves when experienced clinicians challenge assumptions and share perspectives.

Always learning. Always refining the craft.

March Clinical Roundtable incoming!!

This month’s topic:
“Within-session improvements vs. long-term prognosis”

How much should immediate changes influence our clinical decisions — and what actually predicts meaningful outcomes?

Monday March 16th, at 7pm PST / 8pm MST / 10pm EST

Moderator:
Miles Nicholas DPT, CSCS ( )

Clinical care is constantly evolving — and every patient presents a new challenge.

That’s why we host our monthly Clinical Roundtable through EvolutionEd.

These sessions are designed for clinicians who want to think deeper about the cases they see every day. It’s an opportunity to network with other forward-thinking therapists, discuss challenging cases, share ideas, and sharpen clinical reasoning with experts in the field.

What to expect:
🔹 Curated, up-to-date research to guide discussion
🔹 Real clinical case conversations
🔹 Perspectives from experienced clinicians
🔹 Practical concepts you can apply in the clinic tomorrow

We know schedules are busy, so while these are live interactive events, video and audio recordings are sent out if you can’t attend live.

Led by elite clinicians, our goal is simple: bridge the gap between research and real patient care.

SKI INJURY RISK REDUCTION AND RETURN TO SPORT: An Expert Panel Discussion

Part Three: Return to Sport Testing for Skiers and the progression back to the mountain

Catherine Logan MD, and Nate Lilley MPT,OCS,CSCS

KEY STRENGTH METRICS

✔️Isometric peak force limb symmetry index (LSI) - Comparing the injured/operative sides strength to the contralateral extremity.

✔️Isometric peak force Hamstring/Quad ratio- A ratio of strength comparing the hamstring and quadriceps on the same limb.

✔️Torque-to-bodyweight (TTBW) ratio- How much strength (torque) can be generated based off of an individual’s body weight and the length of the moment arm (tibia)

Strength goals:

⛷️>/ 90% quad LSI and/or >/ 3.0 Nm/kg quad TTBW for return to skiing

🎿>/60% Quad:HS Ratio

ADDITIONAL RTS TESTS FOR THE SKI ATHLETE:

✔️The single-leg vertical jump test (SLVJ) is a unilateral power and motor-control assessment used to evaluate how well one limb can produce force vertically and absorb it on landing.

✔️6 inch Single-Leg Drop Jump (SLDJ) is a test measuring reactive strength / stretch-shortening cycle efficiency. This test is great at assessing frontal and transverse plane mechanics, dynamic knee control as well as exposing asymmetries under higher-speed loading.

✔️The 40-centimeter unilateral lateral hop test is a single-limb agility, power, and frontal-plane control drill that also measures limb endurance.

We had a great Pop Up Dry Needling night at Runners Roost Denver! We were able to help out several of their run club members who have some big races coming up! Dry needling can be helpful to promote mobility and recovery after those long training runs. Good luck out there!
Shout out to our gracious host Runners Roost Denver!
