# Unlocking Elite Performance: An Inside Look with Dr. Tom Teter
## Exploring Advanced Strategies in Athletic Rehabilitation and Team Management
In the latest episode of the FAKTR (Functional and Kinetic Treatment with Rehabilitation) Podcast, we delve into the complex world of sports medicine and athletic performance with Dr. Tom Teter. This two-part series, titled "Unlocking Elite Performance: Strategies to Transform Your Sports Practice," offers valuable insights for practitioners seeking to optimize their approach to athlete care. The discussion ranges from assessment models and educational courses to the integral role of team dynamics in a sports setting. In Part 2, Dr. Teter further elaborates on his advanced strategies for rehabilitation and effective team collaboration. Below, we break down some key takeaways from the episode.
### Robust Assessment Models: The Foundation of Athlete Care
Dr. Tom Teter underscores the importance of a robust assessment model in diagnosing and treating athletes. For individuals experiencing pain, he advocates the Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA), while the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is recommended for active individuals without pain. These models help in identifying movement dysfunctions and establishing a strong foundation for subsequent treatment plans.
Expanding on this, Dr. Teter advises new practitioners to broaden their skill set in various specialized areas such as manipulation and soft tissue mobilization. "Start with a solid assessment framework and continually seek to enhance your practical skills," he emphasizes. This approach ensures comprehensive care that addresses both immediate issues and long-term functionality.
### Essential Courses and Continuous Learning
Education is a cornerstone of Dr. Teter's philosophy. He recommends taking foundational courses like FAKTR for a wide array of skills and the Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) certification for understanding strength and conditioning fundamentals. However, he acknowledges that these are just the beginning; practitioners may need additional courses to deepen their expertise.
For instance, understanding the principles of progressive overload is crucial for anyone involved in athletic training. Dr. Teter suggests further educational platforms like Rio de Fitness for a more in-depth understanding. "Continuous learning is vital for staying abreast of the latest techniques and improving patient outcomes," he asserts.
### Integrated Support Team: A Blueprint for Success
One of the most pressing issues in athletic healthcare is the efficient management of a sports medicine team. Dr. Teter explains the importance of a well-structured, integrated support team, encompassing various domains:
- **Management:** Athletic directors and chief executives oversee the organizational culture and operations.
- **Medical Team:** This includes athletic trainers for triage and rehabilitation, general practitioners for pain management, orthopedists for surgical needs, nutritionists, and mental health experts.
- **Movement and Fitness Team:** Manual therapists (e.g., chiropractors) and physical therapists work on restoring mobility, while strength coaches focus on enhancing physical capacities like strength and endurance.
- **Skill and Science Staff:** Coaches aid in motor skills and technical training, while sports scientists monitor stress and load to maintain athlete homeostasis and recovery.
Dr. Teter highlights that the collaboration among these roles is critical for an athlete’s seamless and holistic recovery journey. Open communication and a non-threatening approach to collaborations can fill gaps effectively, creating a cohesive and supportive team environment.
### Progression in Rehabilitation: Beyond the Pain
The episode also delves deep into the stages of rehabilitation, urging practitioners to look beyond mere pain resolution. Dr. Teter outlines a comprehensive rehabilitation strategy that transitions from acute management to restoring fundamental capacities. This includes focusing on motor control, progressive kinetics, and functional integration.
"Rehabilitation should not just end at pain relief; it's about preparing the athlete to return to their sport with full functionality," Dr. Teter elaborates. This holistic approach includes aerobic endurance, rate of force development, and sport-specific endurance. Practitioners are encouraged to develop a solid groundwork for these capacities to reduce the risk of reinjury and optimize performance.
### Building Referral Relationships: Filling Skill Set Gaps
Dr. Teter emphasizes the importance of forming referral relationships with other healthcare providers to offer comprehensive care. Recognizing gaps in one’s skill set and seeking collaboration with other specialists ensures that patients receive the best possible treatments.
"Reach out to frequently mentioned providers to propose collaboration and honest co-management," advises Dr. Teter. He shares successful case studies, including streamlined patient referrals to a hip surgeon, highlighting effective interdisciplinary collaboration.
### Guidance for New Practitioners: Gaining Practical Experience
One crucial piece of advice for new practitioners is to gain hands-on experience in sports environments. Dr. Teter suggests finding mentors, volunteering services, and engaging with local colleges or sports clubs. Practical experience not only builds competency but also fosters valuable relationships that can lead to future professional opportunities.
"Even shadowing roles can provide insights into operational dynamics and help build a robust network," Dr. Teter adds.
### Conclusion: Embracing Holistic Approaches
As the episode concludes, Dr. Teter reiterates the necessity of understanding comprehensive rehabilitation stages and the value of a multifaceted support system. "Chiropractors and other practitioners should focus on collaborative care to cover all aspects of athlete recovery and performance improvement," he concludes.
Stay tuned for future episodes of the FAKTR Podcast, where we will continue to explore cutting-edge strategies and expert insights into the world of sports medicine.

This method ensures that we’re not just following a generalized protocol but tailoring our approach based on historical effectiveness and best practices.
**Jessica Riddle:**
That level of customization is impressive. Speaking of collaboration, what advice do you have for new team members managing athletes?
**Dr. Tom Teter:**
Honesty and understanding your role within the team are crucial. Align with the team’s needs and expectations and make sure to communicate openly. Collaboration thrives on mutual respect and the willingness to adapt and contribute effectively.
**Jessica Riddle:**
Drawing from your personal experience, how did you navigate your integration into a sports medicine team during your time in the collegiate setting?
**Dr. Tom Teter:**
I assessed the needs and expectations of the team and offered my expertise in a way that complemented the existing structure. For example, I focused on areas where there were clear deficiencies, such as movement assessment and foundational kinematics, without imposing my views but rather supporting the team's overall goals.
**Jessica Riddle:**
That’s an excellent approach. Finally, for our listeners eager to gain practical experience, what steps can they take?
**Dr. Tom Teter:**
Finding mentors, volunteering your services, and engaging with local sports organizations are great ways to start. Practical experience in real sports environments helps you understand operational dynamics and build relationships that can lead to future opportunities.

### Title: Unlocking Elite Performance in Sports Medicine: Strategies to Overcome Challenges
#### Introduction:
The field of sports medicine and rehabilitation offers immense opportunities but also comes with its unique challenges. In this insightful episode of the FAKTR Podcast, host Jessica Riddle and expert guest Dr. Tom Teter delve into the intricacies of optimizing athlete performance and navigating the complex landscape of sports healthcare. This guide distills their discussion, addressing the primary pain points and offering practical strategies to overcome these challenges. Whether you're a new practitioner or an experienced professional, this content will help you enhance your practice and achieve better outcomes for your athletes.
#### 1. Begin with a Robust Assessment Model:
A fundamental challenge in sports medicine is accurately assessing athletes' conditions and pain points. Dr. Teter underscores the importance of using comprehensive assessment models.
- **Use the Right Tools:** For individuals with pain, apply the SFMA (Selective Functional Movement Assessment). For those looking to remain active without current pain issues, utilize the FMS (Functional Movement Screen).
- **Build Diverse Skills:** New practitioners should focus on developing specialized areas such as manipulation and soft tissue mobilization to enhance their assessment capabilities.
- **Continuous Learning:** Enroll in courses like FAKTR and CSCS to broaden your skill set and deepen your understanding of strength and conditioning fundamentals.
#### 2. Understand Progressive Overload:
A lack of comprehension in applying progressive overload can hinder the rehabilitation process.
- **Educational Courses:** Take advantage of educational resources like CSCS and platforms like Rio de Fitness to gain mastery over progressive overload concepts.
- **Practical Application:** Implement your learning by designing progressive overload programs tailored to each athlete’s specific needs, ensuring steady and conducive training progression.
#### 3. Foster Team Management:
Effective management within athletic environments involves overcoming communication barriers and understanding team dynamics.
- **Open Dialogue:** Initiate communication with athletic directors and subsequently engage athletic training staff to understand existing protocols.
- **Identify Gaps:** Assess areas that need improvement, such as movement assessment, motor control, and conditioning.
- **Collaborative Approach:** Offer your expertise in a non-threatening way, fostering trust and collaboration to efficiently fill identified gaps.
#### 4. Develop a Comprehensive Rehabilitation Strategy:
Navigating from acute management to sport-specific readiness poses significant challenges.
- **Holistic Care:** Ensure the rehabilitation program covers stages from motor control and tissue regaining to functional integration and performance readiness.
- **Incorporate Aerobic Endurance:** Integrate aerobic conditioning as an essential part of general physical preparation.
- **Focus on Kinetics:** Enhance rate force development through activities like sprinting, jumping, and throwing, ensuring athletes build necessary explosive and recycling power.
#### 5. Establishing Referral Relationships:
New practitioners must overcome the challenge of offering comprehensive care by forming strategic partnerships.
- **Identify Key Providers:** Note frequently mentioned healthcare providers during patient intake to identify potential referral partners.
- **Initiate Contact:** Introduce yourself and propose collaborative relationships to these providers, ensuring the patient receives comprehensive care.
- **Ethical Collaboration:** Focus on honest co-management without trying to "poach" patients, ensuring treatment gaps are effectively filled through teamwork.
#### 6. Gain Practical Experience:
Dr. Teter emphasizes the value of practical experience for new practitioners.
- **Volunteer Services:** Offer free services at local colleges or sports clubs to gain real-world experience and build essential relationships.
- **Shadow Professionals:** Find mentors willing to allow you to shadow them to learn operational dynamics and develop industry connections.
- **Build Relationships:** Establish connections with established professionals during your training period, positioning yourself for future opportunities and clientele.
#### Conclusion:
Navigating the multifaceted challenges in sports medicine requires a strategic approach rooted in robust assessment models, understanding progressive overload, fostering team collaboration, and establishing strong referral networks. By following Dr. Tom Teter’s expert advice and strategies, healthcare providers can enhance their practices, ensuring holistic care and optimal performance for their athletes. Remember, building a successful career in sports rehabilitation takes dedication, continuous learning, and effective collaboration. Good luck on your journey to unlocking elite performance!
