I recently was advised to check out a new TV show called Athlete 360. The show discusses the various injuries professional athletes suffer from and how they overcome those injuries. The show's host, Dr. Mark Adickes a Harvard trained Orthopedic surgeon and former offensive lineman for a Super Bowl winning Washington Redskins team, meets with different athletes each show and discusses their injuries including treatment options such as surgery, physical therapy, and other medical treatments.
Recent current or former professional athletes on the show include former NBA player Dikembe Mutombo, former NFL lineman Mark Schlereth, MLB pitcher Steve Sparks, and professional golfer Stacy Lewis to name a few. Here is a link to view the episode with Mark Schlereth which I really enjoyed:

If you are like me and wonder what it takes for professional athletes to overcome their injuries, I think you will really enjoy the show. Thanks for your consideration.
