Virtual Training/Rehab
philosophy, I try to keep things as
simple as possible. I think you can get
too cute and overcomplicate things at
this point in time. And the last thing
we want to do is add undue stress to
an already stressful situation for our
student-athletes. "
For those strength coaches who
can't come up with alternative
options on their own, applications like
TeamBuildr are available. TeamBuildr,
specifically, can be used as a tool
to help develop workout plans from
scratch or simply an extra resource
for ideas. Furthermore, the app is
used by many larger NCAA Division
1 schools and can be used to help
train athletes from all ages, amateurs
to the pros. It can also help make data
collecting more efficient, allowing
athletes to plug their workloads in
and coaches can provide exercises
directly to them through the system.
There are also applications for
coaches who know what to write
for plans, but need assistance with
delivering programs efficiently.
" We had already been using
TrainHeroic as a way to distribute
our workouts to all of our athletes,
so we kind of already had a virtual
component in place, " Rod Richard,
Director of Athletic Performance
for all four EM Speed and Power
locations in southern California, said.
" We were able to take that and
then unroll our whole program onto
the TrainHeroic app. It was initially
just for the lifting parts of it, or any of
the specific prehab, rehab stuff per
athlete. But then with this happening,
no one can come in now, so we took
our normal training sessions and put
them onto the app. "
TrainHeroic is functional for
strength coaches who train athletes
in one-on-one sessions, as well as
those who do so in groups. In addition
to video uploaded by coaches, the
app allows clients to track reps and
communicate with coaches.
There are also similar options for
athletic trainers who are working
athletes through rehab. Bumpas, for
instance, uses HEP2go (home exercise
program). And these applications are
crucial for athletic trainers even more so,
because they're typically used to running
through exercises with their rehabbing
athletes. Some also require the help
of physical therapists, but with the
country's emphasis on social distancing,
that's become an issue, as well.
" With the current state of affairs,
I've only had one person that's been
able to set up physical therapy at
home, " Bumpas said. " Because most
of the clinics are not currently reading
patients. So I use the same service
that our physical therapist on staff at
Northwestern uses. And it's a free online
thing. And you can look up exercises and
put programs together and I can email
it to the athlete, and there's instructions
and pictures of the exercises.
