I’m flying solo for this week’s podcast as I discuss spondylolysis, the clinical term for a stress fracture of the spine. These issues are commonly seen with adolescent athletes involved in extension and rotation sports, and I’ve managed a lot of them over the years. In the podcast, I highlight causes, diagnoses, treatments, and prevention strategies for spondylolysis.

Before we get to it, though, a special thanks to this show’s sponsor, AG1. Head to https://www.drinkAG1.com/cressey and you’ll receive a free 10-pack of Athletic Greens travel packets with your first order.
