Same!
Said everything I’ve been thinking about. Had a good vibe and he was very clear about it. Thumbs up brah 🤙🏽
I know I’m young, but I was watching the video and he literally spoke my mind of being able to be apart of a team and contributing but like in a different way and being able to help other people in the sports field, etc. I don’t plan on going to college for sports, but I do love sports and this would be the perfect thing to do. Awesome video, cleared up a lot of things for me 🙌🏾
Bro everything in my mind is exactly what you said you just spoke the words from my mind and cleared up a lot of stuff
As a certified athletic trainer, I really appreciated this video promoting our profession! Great job!!

Well thank you for clearing up the difference between “athletic training” and “strength and conditioning” as the latter is what I was looking for.

I’m so glad I found your channel, I’m currently a senior applying to colleges and as a high schooler I had no idea what to do, all I knew was I liked playing soccer and sports in general, I did some research and came across the athletic training major and it really grabs my attention, but thank you for answering my questions

Hi bro ,could you suggest me a book with the basics of athletic training that you read when you started college please 🙏🙏🙂
Nicely presented. Plus UM is such a great university. Good wishes.
I am an athletic training student at Georgetown College, and I know how you feel about not being able to do a lot at the beginning of the program. I am a senior in our program and my rotations are now letting me do so much. Stick with it! You got it!!

We have a sports medicine program at my high school. And junior year you get ekg certified, and senior year, it becomes a college credit class Also the reason why you see you the AT so close to the main team, is because the AT is apart of the central team for athletic training.

Dude literally when you started off the video it sounds like me in my situation right now. I’m thinking of becoming a pilot but I don’t know. Athletic training sounds really fun but being a pilot sounds fun and pays well. I’m not sure what to do if anyone has tips hmu

I am considering this major as I love fitness and I would enjoy taking care of my patients. However, I get queasy at the sight of bodily fluids. Do you deal with a lot of blood and other bodily fluids?

Hey I’m a sports management major and considering in going into the athletic training field. Do you know if I would be able to keep my sports management major with a minor in kinesiology or would I have to change my major into sports medicine? Also is it true that with getting a job with athletic training that you will need a masters degree?
