I thought I had him for a second…
Met an absolute powerhouse at the Enhanced Games in Las Vegas — Mitchell Hooper , one of the strongest men in the world and one of the most dominant athletes in modern strongman history.

They cal Mitchell “The Moose” because he’s Canadian, massive in size, incredibly powerful, and surprisingly athletic for a man of his stature — basically built like a moose.

We had a chance to talk about his upcoming head-to-head showdown with fellow strongman legend Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson — a battle of two incredible athletes pushing the limits of human strength.

The are definitely getting people talking… not just about performance enhancement, but about the future of human optimization, recovery, longevity, and what may be possible when science and athletics intersect.

Strength at the highest level is something else to witness in person.

Would you consider getting Enhanced?

Treat the patient — not just the MRI report.

Great post by Patrick Denard discussing two of the most common incidental findings seen on shoulder MRI.

An MRI report alone does not diagnose shoulder pain. Many “abnormal” findings are incidental and may not actually be the source of symptoms. The key is matching the MRI with a detailed history, physical exam, and sometimes diagnostic injections.

Too often, athletes are told it’s just “tendinitis” or arthritis… but the real issue may be inside the joint.

It shows up in tennis, weight training, volleyball—any sport with repetitive, forceful upper extremity use.

Diagnosis starts with a proper exam—and sometimes a CT scan.

This weekend I had the privilege of attending the Munguia vs Resendiz and Benavides vs Zurdo professional boxing matches 🥊

I’m fortunate to support my patients—not just in the clinic, but in their sport as well.

Everyone who walks through my doors gets treated like a pro.

Nothing can be done. He heard that for 3 years.

My dear patient flew in from the North of Sweden after living 3 years with an unsuccessful pectoralis major surgery. At the time of his first surgery they told him that they could only do a partial repair.

He was left with:
• Significant chest wall deformity
• Weakness
• Painful muscle spasms

And most importantly—
👉 the belief that nothing could be done.

Takeaway:

1. These injuries are difficult to treat—even the first time
2. Untreated or failed repairs can lead to significant deformity and dysfunction
3. There may still be options, even years later, with the right approach



If you’ve been told “nothing can be done”…
it may be worth getting another opinion.
