The Making of the 'World's Greatest Athlete'

Olympic champion Damian Warner and his physio, IMS instructor Dave Zelibka, discuss how they kept him healthy and ready to compete!
Join Damian Warner and his physiotherapist Dave Zelibka as they look back at their nine-year journey to the top of the Olympic podium. In this dynamic discussion moderated by Senior Gunn IMS instructor Cory Choma they examine:
  • How they manage the delicate balance between training and recovery
  • The benefits of using an injury prevention model instead of an injury treatment model
  • Damian's first experiences with dry needling and how their approach evolved through trial and error
  • How the Gunn IMS model helped Damian recover from and avoid overuse injuries throughout his career
  • Why desensitization of the nervous system is a crucial component even in elite athletes
  • How Dave incorporated Gunn IMS dry needling into a complex training and competition schedule
  • And much more
The discussion was followed by a live Q&A dedicated to answering attendees' questions.
