CJSM Podcast 2

May 10, 2014 by

JSM-Podcast-BG (1)The May CJSM has been out for a little more than a week, and we hope you have been able to begin looking it over.

I had a chance to talk with Dr. James Carson of Canada, one of the authors of the new Canadian Academy of Sports and Exercise Medicine (CASEM) position statement highlighted in the new journal:  Neuromuscular Training Programs can Decrease Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Youth Soccer Players.

Neuromuscular training programs are gaining favor as cost-effective interventions for ACL injury; witness a recent article profiling their impact at a cost of only $1.25 per player!

It’s a wonderful paper, and I hope you get both a chance to read it and listen to the new podcast. Let us know what you think, by commenting here or tweeting us @cjsmonline.
