#StandUp4Ice
I’ve read the articles. But still recommend ice to athletes in most of the same situations we did in the past. It often helps.
Dr. Dave Tilley is still proscribing ice.
He links to this article by Mike Reinold:
… Ice isnβt the bad guy. Yes, we tend to apply ice in some situations that probably doesnβt help and claim we do so for the wrong reasons. But the bottom line is that there are several benefits to ice, and ice has not been proven to impede the healing process as many claim. …

Will Graves is a mainstream sports reporter who actually understands Gymnastics. He was nervous to be exposed as a fraud when talking to Spencer and Jessica, but I found his perspective legit.

Happily Will’s daughter just started Gymnastics. Hopefully she’ll get him hooked for many years to come. π
