Description

 
About Dr. Jared Vagy
I am so excited to put this podcast out! Holy crap. This is some MUCH NEEDED info for climbers of all kinds, and I really hope you listen to the whole thing. Jared Vagy is a PhD physical therapist who also happens to be a rock climber who's had a lot of injuries.
He works with athletes of all kinds and does special phone/skype and in-person assessments and sessions with climbers all over the world. He's written a book just for us on how to prevent and treat common climber injuries, and he's got a lot more info for us up his sleeve. He's super passionate about educating us, and I'm so happy I found him!
He's dissected our contorted movements and figured out how we can prevent finger, elbow, and shoulder injuries.
What We Talked About

Finger injuries 
Elbow injuries
Shoulder injuries (my favorite!)
What we're doing wrong on the wall to cause these injuries
How to properly warm up before climbing
