The return to sport, assessed and interpreted: which tests, which values, which decisions. A course he co-delivers with Adrien Blachère, drawn from the clinical and scientific evidence they meet around the return to play.
Discover the courseA really concrete course. I used to struggle to back my return-to-sport decisions with objective data, and I am leaving with a real assessment framework, useful tests and, above all, a clear logic for progressing without skipping steps.
A very good balance between the literature, the field and real cases. The two instructors complement each other really well. I particularly liked the whole part on progression criteria and decision-making at the end of rehabilitation.
At last, a return-to-sport course that does not stay vague. You see how to build clean reasoning, how to talk to the patient and how to adapt to the profile, the sport and the context. Very applicable from Monday morning.
