| #67 Shoulder impingement with Professor Jeremy Lewis | 29 Sep 2026 | 01:01:03 | |
Jared is joined by Professor Jeremy Lewis who really needs no introduction but we will give him one just for fun. Jeremy is a researcher, educator, physiotherapist, and one of the biggest names in musculoskeletal rehabilitation. In this episode Jeremy discusses his journey in cementing the fact that subacromial impingement syndrome is a "clinical illusion" and a fundamentally flawed concept. This one is not to be missed.

A peanut isn't dangerous until it meets someone who can't tolerate it. Same with the upright row exercise.

| #64: Is measuring strength useful? With Tim Cook | 04 Aug 2026 | 00:46:56 | |
Jared is joined by Tim Cook who is Senior Lecturer in Physiotherapy at the University of Chichester, Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner in the NHS, and doctoral researcher to discuss their new paper with Prof. Jeremy Lewis in the Journal of Manual & Manipulative Therapy: "Rethinking strength testing in rotator cuff-related shoulder pain: a clinical tradition that lacks muscle." Tim explains what pushed him to question routine strength testing in busy clinical practice, despite guidelines recommending it, and the pair dig into whether weakness is a cause of shoulder pain, a consequence of it, or something else altogether. They look at what subacromial anaesthetic injection studies reveal about pain versus true force output, and Tim reframes the classic "weak and painful shoulder" as the "flexible but painful shoulder," drawing parallels to other oversimplified clinical narratives like posture and core stability. They also make the case for when strength testing can still earn its keep; patient engagement, expectation violation, building confidence, and sporting or return-to-performance populations such as ACL limb symmetry index, before turning to Goodhart's Law and the risk of chasing the test rather than the outcome, and why isolated isometric tests may not translate to real-world, endurance-based shoulder tasks. Tim closes out with an update on his PhD: a reliability RCT on strength and pain-free assessment currently in press, and an upcoming scoping review on the proposed mechanisms of exercise for RCRSP.

| #63: The myth of perfect movement | 21 Jul 2026 | 00:23:36 | |
Is there really one correct way to move? For decades, clinicians and coaches have acted like there is. In this episode, we prosecute that idea. We start in a 1930s Soviet forge, where Nikolai Bernstein filmed blacksmiths and found their hammer strikes landed in the same spot every time, despite every joint angle differing swing to swing. That's "repetition without repetition." From there we bring in Mark Latash's motor abundance: why your nervous system treats extra degrees of freedom as a resource, not a problem, and what that means for scapular "dyskinesis," core stability cues, and fear-based rehab language. We close with a practical clinical translation for coaches and clinicians. Plus: a quick update on my next in-person workshop, The Complete Shoulder Workshop, Melbourne 17 October.

| #62: Pain during exercise: friend or foe? | 07 Jul 2026 | 00:19:31 | |
The question of allowing pain, or avoiding it, during exercise based rehab remains contentious and uncertain. So, like any good scientist, we (led by Ivy Tran) studied the evidence-base and sought an answer to this clinical conundrum to help not just you, but us too! What did we find?

| #61: What is a physiotherapist? | 23 Jun 2026 | 00:21:34 | |
What is a physiotherapist? Strip away the hands, the exercises, the modalities, what's left? In this episode I argue that the "fixer" identity, the clinician who finds what's broken and corrects it, isn't where our profession came from. It's something that was selected into us through a century of professional politics and reductionist thinking. Drawing on the history of physiotherapy, Newell's constraints framework, self-determination theory, and Gopnik's gardener, I make the case for a different identity: the clinician who sets the conditions for an active, adaptive person to recover and even flourish.

| #60: The Burnout Episode | 10 Jun 2026 | 00:21:56 | |
Burnout in our profession is widespread, with most studies reporting prevalence between 8 and 23 per cent, and up to 65 per cent of recent graduates planning to leave physiotherapy within ten years. In this episode, drawing on a recent editorial in the Journal of Physiotherapy by Ky Wynne, I lay out the empirical picture and challenge the dominant framing that burnout is a problem of individual resilience. I share my own story of burning out two years into clinical practice, what shifted before anything else did, and the disposition I've come to see as the antidote to the slow erosion the current climate produces.

| #59: Exercise, sets, reps and the pharmacology problem | 26 May 2026 | 00:21:55 | |
Is more always better? Is there a dose response effect of exercise for musculoskeletal pain?

| # 58: Most rotator cuff tears don't hurt | 12 May 2026 | 00:26:05 | |
The FIMAGE study scanned both shoulders of 602 adults from the general population using high-resolution 3-Tesla MRI. Only 7 had a structurally normal rotator cuff. In this episode, I walk through what the study found, why 78% of full-thickness tears were in people with no shoulder pain, and what happens to the diagnostic value of a scan when the finding it detects is near-universal. I challenge the assumption that prevalence equals normality, explore why the word "tear" imports a trauma narrative into what is usually a degenerative process, and make the case that imaging findings deserve a smaller seat at the clinical reasoning table than we've historically given them.

| #57: Stop Looking for a Winner: The Case for Treatment Pluralism | 28 Apr 2026 | 00:18:19 | |
In this episode, I walk through my recent JOSPT paper arguing that no single treatment modality has proven itself superior for musculoskeletal pain and that the profession should stop pretending otherwise. Drawing on Isaiah Berlin's distinction between the hedgehog and the fox, I make the case for treatment pluralism: the idea that multiple interventions can lead to recovery, and that rigid allegiance to any one approach is not supported by the evidence.

| #55: Will AI Replace Physiotherapists? | 31 Mar 2026 | 00:24:58 | |
The argument that AI replaces "the science" while clinicians should "lean into the art" has become common across healthcare. In this episode, I explain why I think both sides of that framing get it wrong, and why the art vs. science debate was always a false dichotomy that AI has simply made harder to ignore. I draw on four thinkers to make the case: Michael Polanyi on tacit knowledge, Donald Schön on reflective practice in the swampy lowlands, Aristotle on phronesis, and Herbert Dreyfus on the limits of artificial intelligence. Together, they point toward a different answer, that what makes a clinician an expert isn't information retrieval or technical craft, but practical wisdom: the capacity to think with another person under conditions of uncertainty.

| #54: Physiotherapists are Knowledge Workers | 17 Mar 2026 | 00:13:16 | |
In this episode of The Shoulder Physio Podcast, we discuss why musculoskeletal clinicians are, at their core, knowledge workers. Not in the corporate buzzword sense, but in the truest sense: professionals whose value comes from the quality of their thinking, not the techniques in their toolkit. We explore why knowledge compounds but repetition doesn't, why information alone fails to change behaviour, and why trust is far more than a soft skill.

| #51: Resistance Training Across the Lifespan: What Really Matters with Dr. Jackson Fyfe | 04 Nov 2025 | 00:57:05 | |
In this episode, Jared Powell is joined by Dr. Jackson Fyfe, exercise scientist and Senior Lecturer at Deakin University, to explore the science and practicality of resistance training across the lifespan. They unpack everything from how kids can safely lift weights to how older adults can maintain muscle health and longevity. Jackson also shares insights from his research on training dosage, hypertrophy, minimal effective dose, and how resistance and aerobic exercise can (and should) coexist. This conversation spans from myth-busting (“weights stunt growth”) to deep physiological insights about muscle as an endocrine organ. It’s a clear, evidence-based discussion that reminds us why lifting weights might just be the most underrated health intervention available. Key topics include:

In this candid and wide-ranging conversation, Dr Jared Powell is joined once again by Professor Peter O’Sullivan, one of the most influential voices in musculoskeletal care. Pete unpacks the rationale and findings of the landmark RESTORE trial published in The Lancet, which provides some of the most compelling evidence to date for cognitive functional therapy (CFT) in people with chronic low back pain. He discusses how CFT works, its philosophical divergence from traditional “find-it, fix-it” approaches, and how it centres the patient’s experience, goals, and context. You’ll also hear:

| #48 Rotator Cuff Surgery: What Makes it Worthwhile? | 09 Jul 2025 | 00:08:12 | |
In this solo episode of The Shoulder Physio Podcast, Dr Jared Powell explores a deceptively simple question: How much benefit does rotator cuff surgery need to provide to be considered worthwhile? Jared explores a new 2025 study by Harrison Hansford and colleagues, which uses a clever benefit–harm trade-off approach to quantify what patients actually want from surgery. This episode challenges the way we interpret research, the limits of "statistical significance," and the need for truly patient-centred decision-making. If you're still recommending surgery after failed physio without asking what makes it worthwhile to the person in front of you, this one’s for you. Key topics include:

| #33: How much pain relief do patients expect from our treatments? | 19 Mar 2024 | 00:38:39 | |
When a patient comes to see a physiotherapist, or any health care professional, how much better does that patient need to get to make a treatment worthwhile? This is an important question because we're constantly making treatment recommendations to patients, day in-day-out, but based on what? My guest for this podcast, Harrison Hansford, reckons a lot of our treatment decisions should be made with consideration of something called the Smallest Worthwhile Effect, which is actually surprisingly easy to understand.

| #32 Exercise for Shoulder Pain is a No-Brainer, Right? | 20 Feb 2024 | 00:52:04 | |
We're constantly told, even lectured, about the importance of exercise for most non-traumatic musculoskeletal pain presentations, shoulder pain included. We assume it works for all people across time and space, but is this true? Are there factors that might influence whether exercise will help an individual with shoulder pain or not? What are these factors and can we influence them? Listen on to hear Emily and Andrew from The Knowledge Exchange interview me about these very interesting questions. Key Papers: 1.

| #31: Uncertainty doesn't prevent action | 15 Nov 2023 | 01:11:10 | |
Every iconic scientist has a quote emphasising the importance of uncertainty and doubt that underpins the scientific attitude. This holds true as much for fundamental physics and biological science as it does for health science, probably far more so in the case of health science. For we are complex, non-linear creatures, each with different stories, backgrounds, contexts and circumstances. Because of this, clinical uncertainty is ubiquitous, it's everywhere, but this should not paralyse us according to my guest on this episode, Nathalia Costa, PhD. Enjoy. Key Papers:

| #30: Pilates for chronic low back pain, how does it work? | 17 Oct 2023 | 00:42:21 | |
Pilates exercise seems to help people with chronic low back pain...but how? What are the causal mechanisms underpinning the apparent effectiveness of Pilates? Does it activate the multifidus and transeversus abdominis muscles? Does it reduce fear and improve confidence? Both or neither? To shed some light on this question I have invited Lianne Wood on to the show, who, incidentally, has a paper on this very question! What a lovely coincidence.

| #27 Exercise for Knee Osteoarthritis. A debate between Marius Henriksen and Christian Barton | 27 Jun 2023 | 01:00:22 | |
Exercise for knee osteoarthritis is a non-negotiable and effective intervention, right? Well, maybe it’s not so clear. Evidence seems to be dropping every month challenging the privileged position that exercise occupies for managing knee osteoarthritis. Front and centre is the infamous DICSO trial, published in 2022, and this study will serve as the foundation for this debate. The debate features Marius Henriksen and Christian Barton and these two men engage in polite yet passionate intellectual battle with the aim of figuring out just what role exercise plays for managing people with knee osteoarthritis.

| #24 Injury prevention (or is it reduction?) with Professor Franco Impellizzeri | 21 Mar 2023 | 00:54:11 | |

| #22 Thinking beyond sets and reps with John Kiely | 24 Jan 2023 | 01:07:54 | |
In this episode I speak with eminent sport scientist and coach, John Kiely. John is infamous for challenging dogmatic training principles in sport science, chiefly periodisation theory. Our conversation starts with periodisation theory and then goes to some interesting locations, stopping momentarily at homeostasis, allostasis, general adaptation syndrome (GAS), predictive processing, the biomedical model, sets and reps and much, much more. If you prescribe exercise in any way, shape or form, please listen to this episode with the venerable John Kiely.

| #21 Can the ACL heal? With Dr Stephanie Filbay | 18 Dec 2022 | 00:57:38 | |
An entrenched assumption in sport and exercise medicine/physiotherapy, going back decades, has been that ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injuries DO NOT heal. Not ever. However, like many dogmatic beliefs in the health and fitness sector, this assumption appears to have been seriously wrong. Dr Stephanie Filbay joins me to discuss her latest paper about the healing capacity of the ACL and what this means for your clinical practice. Dr Filbay also teases some insights from the CROSS bracing trial, which is soon to be published. Be prepared to have some of your most tightly held beliefs seriously challenged in this episode.
