Vegan diet maybe ?
I thought you were bringing on a doctor? Instead you brought on someone who’s in the business of making medical devices so of course they would push thier philosophy get surgery instead of alternative options and he conveniently leaves out the fact they will be putting a (metal rod in his shin) smh…Stem Cell Replacement Therapy along with rest is a way better less invasive option for this injury it’s actually the future of medicine if you do your research…I hope the best for Cade but he should look deeper into other options and focus on changing his diet, when you train and lift weights u not only build muscle but you build BONE DENSITY if your body is not getting vital nutrients and proteins the muscle and bones will not be able to recover from training thus leading to these type of injuries…if Cade fails to change his Diet this injury will reoccur and possibly get worst! I feel like the organization pressured him into this decision!!
Great guest
He's not a Dr. so how is he an expert? You can tell he doesn't know what he's talking about! I could have said the stuff he said! JUSTREAL103 ✊🏾
I broke my wrist hooping in a pickup game in August of 2020 and opted not to get surgery. My wrist hasn’t been the same ever since… I say good move get the surgery and rehab get that shit back to 100% bones will die and weaken if not healed properly.
He's an expert in his field, but not an orthopedic expert. I did appreciate his take though. He does have to know his shit.
As an actual medical professional, this is insulting.
Silly me… In hindsight, all the complaints I had about Cade's game are probably all related to this injury. The times he looked flat driving to the rim and on his jumpshots, unbalanced moves, slow acceleration, etc… I personally developed shin splints as a young adult after regularly playing bball 2-3 times a week. Would definitely say an increase in weight played a factor but it became more severe over time. I wouldn't be surprised if he's dealt with this since college, maybe even high school. And I can't imagine the stress from a long NBA season on your lower part of your leg. At times, it would literally hurt for me just to walk after playing. Only after several years of deep tissue massages and not playing regularly did I see some results of little to no pain in my shins.
thank you for answering my question Ku! this podcast helped me understand Cade’s injury a lot better. Rest up #2 and go pistons 🙏
Ku tell this man to just make Cade a Robocop shin so we can get back to ballin.
It’s weird how you’d bring on a person who engineers medical devices/implants but there’s no mention at all about the surgery how it would go or the fact that they would be inserting a metal implant/rod in Cades leg, y’all just stop at surgery…I would like to hear your guess speak on what surgery intel’s…As a fan when I hear doctors going down that road (adding implants) naturally there should be tougher questions…Which is why he conveniently left that part out😂😂
Cade my man! Eat a steak! This is not medical advice. I am not an expert. Though I did have ankle surgery, so thats pretty close to being a doctor in my opinion.
