What's up guys? This is Mike Cashew. This is the brute strength podcast. This week I interviewed

Andre LeBay in New Orleans, Louisiana. Andre has been a rehab specialist and strength and conditioning

coach for the past 20 plus years. He's worked with hundreds, if not thousands of high school

athletes. He's worked with PGA tour players, and he was most recently the physical therapist

for the New Orleans Saints. We talk a lot about injury prevention and how to bulletproof

yourself if you're an athlete or your athletes, if you're a coach. We talk about how to develop

athletic potential, et cetera.

Enjoy the show.

What's up, guys?

This is Mike Cashew.

This is the Brute Strength podcast.

I'm here with Andre LaBay.

We're in New Orleans, Louisiana at Total Package Wellness and Performance.

Yep.

Andre has been in the Strength and Conditioning, Rehab, et cetera, field for the last 20 plus years. He's worked with young kids, high school athletes, collegiate athletes, professional athletes in every sport from professional golf to he was the physical therapist for the New Orleans Saints.

So we have a wealth of knowledge here, and I'm excited to start picking his brain a little bit.

Nice to be here.

Thanks for doing this, man.

And that was kind of the catalyst.

So my first question is, what caused you, like why did you check check my hip rotators and what did that tell you?
