Many athletes and active individuals are excited to get back to lifting weights after their concussions. The questions that come up, though, are 1) when is it safe/appropriate? 2) how intense should I go? In reality, there's not a ton of research on resistance training after a concussion/mTBI, so we're really making decisions based on the return-to-play (RTP) guidelines and our understanding of exercise physiology. In practice, Dr. Mark will actually return his athletes to resistance training one stage sooner than the RTP guidelines - BUT - with boundaries and guidelines on how to train. In his clinical experience, this ultimately results in a more robust and confident return to sport for athletes, parents, and coaches alike.
