Dr. John Rusin is a physical therapist, but he's not one of those physical therapists who's going to tell you not to work too hard at the gym. In fact, he's worked with a lot of hardcore athletes - from major league baseball players, to Olympians, to powerlifters. Hard work in the gym is not something his clients avoid.But, they do avoid pain and injury, and Dr. John helps them do that. 00:00 - New happenings at Breaking Muscle02:50 - Introduction to Dr. John Rusin03:31 - Combining high performance with a pain-free methodology04:39 - Combining training for aesthetics and performance05:43 - Training based on individual needs06:30 - Why Olympians are the hardest type of athlete to work with08:21 - Taking a step back to move forwards09:26 - What the Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale is and who should use it11:35 - How to shift from a percentage-based program to using an RPE scale14:18 - How lifestyle factors such as sleep play into RPE15:57 - The purpose of the warm up for the strength athlete18:15 - Dr. John's free hypertrophy program on the Breaking Muscle forums21:00 - The conundrum of gaining muscle and losing fat simultaneously22:50 - What drove John to become a high performance physical therapist28:58 - Why back injuries are unpreventable for most people31:56 - How to improve your daily functional movement patterns35:58 - How to perform hands-on myofascial release on yourself40:00 - John and Kalli's upcoming Hypertrophy and Fat Loss Program41:29 - Who the program is for and how they will benefit42:20 - Differences in the program for men and women43:58 - How to find Dr. John Rusin onlineFull article: http://breakingmuscle.com/breaking-muscle-radio/pain-free-high-performance-with-dr-john-rusin-ep-14
