February 06, 2014

February 6, 2014: Over the next few weeks, the world will turn their attention to the elite athletes from around the world at the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia. We will witness them accomplish unimaginative feats, and we will also marvel at their ability to do so. But for all the ways that Olympic athletes are beyond imagination, in at least one way they are very much like the rest of us: they fall down.

In this episode of Move Forward Radio, physical therapist Amber Donaldson, PT, DPT, SCS, CSCS, of the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, will discuss the vigorous training of Olympic athletes, and provide tips on how to best avoid injuries while skiing and snowboarding.
