Healthcare wasn’t built for (or by) Athletes.

Let’s change that, together.

If you’re like us,

you’ve felt frustrated by:

1

The traditional medical model that paints rehab and performance as black and white

2

Grad school programs that don’t provide a strength & conditioning curriculum beyond clamshells and theraband exercises

3

Healthcare providers
telling athletes that
deadlifts are
bad for your back and squats are bad for your knees

4

Communicating with conviction and authority while (somehow!) embracing uncertainty

So, do any of these feelings resonate?

Lacking confidence…

Feeling inadequate in creating and
progressing appropriately challenging
programs for your athletes?

Feeling random…

Lacking clarity with your exercise
prescription and lacking a true
framework for informed decision
making?

Playing the “Weighting Game”...

Struggling to know if you are
underloading or overloading your
people?

Trouble balancing…

Difficulty balancing being “overly
biomechanical” or having too much
“movement positivity?”

We set out on a quest to create an army of providers who will set the standard for performance-based healthcare. Providers who actually walk the walk in their practice and in their life.

On the back of a robust curriculum and a mission-driven community, we’ll help you become the provider of choice for any performance-driven human, without sacrificing your own values.

THE CLINICAL ATHLETE

Provider Certification

Exercise Prescription For a Complex System (CEU Approved 21 hours):
A masterclass in ensuring your critical thinking, decision making, and
communication for Exercise Prescription (ExRx) are second to none.

  • You must pass a final 50 question written exam at the end of the program.

This is truly something that sets us apart. When you take our program, it’s not just a course, but you are entering into one of the most reputable and connected networks in the industry.

  • You are placed in a small group of 4, within the course community
  • You will have opportunities to interact with all mentors and members of the course community
  • Upon graduation, you will be granted access into our exclusive CA Provider community of over 300 alumni, along with our top of class clinical business partners for ongoing implementation, connections, and employment opportunities.

FEELING ALONE AND LACKING ACCOUNTABILITY THAT

ACTUALLY CHALLENGES YOU TO GET BETTER ?

If so, you’re not alone. We’ve worked with and impacted thousands
of lives through our mentorship over the years.
Here are what a few have to say about our
current program:

To put it frankly, there is nothing in my personal or professional life that
has changed the way I practice, coach, and operate on a day to day
basis more than Clinical Athlete. This community pushes the envelope
on the things that really matter- not sets and reps, but critical thinking
skills, communication, complexity, and creating your own process.

This was easily the best investment I have ever made
in my patients and myself.

Azita Nejaddehghan PT, DPT, SCCC, CSCSTeam Physio, Washington Spirit

Having completed a Sports Residency and taken tons of other continuing education courses on top of that, I believe that Clinical Athlete coursework is some of the best if not the best physical therapy continuing education out there. I used to struggle as a rehabilitation professional, not because I lacked knowledge, but because I lacked a cohesive framework through which to interpret and contextualize the abundance of information I already "knew". The coursework is hard only because it makes you do the hard work of critical thinking. It's challenging to question and push out of your comfort zone. But it is undoubtedly worth it.

Devin Crevani, PT, DPTOwner of Back to Barbell Rehab and Performance

As someone who has been taught almost exclusively on the KPM
(Kinesio-Pathological Model), but personally gravitated towards the
BPS model, I have always felt extremely lost and confused when it
comes to exercise prescription.

At various points in my career, I have prescribed exercise based on every
thought process from "I need to get 3 more degrees of scapular
upward rotation" to "everything is the same so why even bother with
specificity". I eventually settled somewhere in the middle of those
two extremes and ended up just feeling confused and not
confident in my treatment plans.

Since joining CA, chatting regularly with the group, making my way
through the course work, and utilizing the resources, I have felt a
180 degree shift in the way I prescribe exercises and the way I
approach every patient encounter.”

Daniel Braff DCOutpatient Rehab and Sport Chiropractic

I honestly believe that becoming a CA certified provider is the best thing I have done for my development as a physical therapist. The course material is all the real-world things that PT school didn't teach you, and has made me a more confident and proficient provider. I am honored to be part of this group of like-minded clinicians who strive for excellence, and would highly recommend this course to providers with all levels of experience.

The cherry on top? This program and community have given me the confidence and encouragement to start my own virtual company for runners.

Stephanie Popovitch PT, DPTRun Coach, Lane One Strength & Performance

As a business owner who values the professional development of my team,
I'm grateful to have partnered with Clinical Athlete. The curriculum is
well thought out and the live calls are incredibly beneficial. And, just being
in a community of other passionate clinicians and coaches is invaluable.
With the Clinical Athlete partnership, I'm confident that the PhysioRX team receives
top-notch mentorship. This aligns our clinical reasoning as a company,
allowing us to provide our clients with the best outcomes possible.

Georgio Baylouny PT, DPTOwner, Physio RX

Clinical Athlete is the continuing ed course I've been searching for in my first couple of years after graduating PT school. It has helped me fill a significant void in my education when it comes to therapeutic exercise and exercise prescription. After going through the CA course, I feel so much more confident in my ability to plan, pivot, and progress and provide reasoning behind my decision making.

Trish Kana, PT, DPTOutpatient Rehab at Starting Line PT and Fitness

You can give someone a fish, or you can teach them how to fish. I think this program teaches you how to fish when it comes to designing rehab programs and being better equipped to help clients reach their goals. This is hands down the best course I've ever taken.

Joby Philip PT, DPTOwner of Fortify Health & Performance

Before starting this four month journey, I felt as if a lot of my exercise prescription was "cookie cutter" and somewhat random. After going through the Clinical Athlete course, I feel much more confident in my clinical decision making and exercise prescription skills. I have learned more from Clinical Athlete than any other continuing education course that I have taken up to this point.

Lea Buckenmyer PT, DPTOwner of Fortify Health & Performance Outpatient Rehab at UC Health
