I like how Brian Sutterer just follows and knows about every sport
Right? At this point, I wouldn't be surprised to see curling, cricket and badminton injuries uploaded lol
Facts
He has google
He is a doctor... a sports physician to be exact, he learned everything in med school and has learned even more in the field, it’s not google dude, it’s knowledge and experience
I always assumed every case of the yips was psychological only. Interesting. Should do a video on Rick Ankiel, he's honestly the only baseball athlete I've heard of that famously got the yips and still managed to stay in the league.
What's Chris Davis got?
Mackey Sasser
Chuck Knoblauch
Looks like chuck is trying to kill a bug but he’s gotta time it.
OMG Yes!!!! His Oprah interview with Michael Jordan was hilariouse and I'm so glad he fixed it, he even said that he wouldn't give up, go Charles!!!
Back when Oprah didn't earn a living race-baiting
As an athletic training student, I love watching your videos! They make me want to start making them too! Thanks you!
Great video - always been curious about this topic
Only someone who forgot what a killer sir Charles was as an NBA player could be surprised about him persevering to fix his yips.
After so many years with such an awful swing, It is a miracle for someone to overcome that
@@fooshoo2006 Sure, it is damn hard to do, but Barkley is one of those people that shine under pressure and doubt. th-cam.com/video/Tf87fzA26zQ/w-d-xo.html
Oh man I was over here thinking that he legit did that on purpose 😂🤦♂️
The body affects the mind, and the mind affects the body.
Great video, doc.
I took a class where we talked a lot about the yips from a sport psychology perspective, but didn’t realize the other side of the spectrum with dystonia
Had this problem with throwing darts.
Very frustrating to fix. I did find that relaxing muscles and concentrating on mechanics helped me get over it
Barkley was like: " Doc B aint gunna make a video of ME showing my bad golf sw..." Too late. He dropped b4 you got it right CB!😂
Super interesting stuff doc. I went from a good Short putter to an awful one over night. Had the yips. I started looking at a spot 6 inches in front of the ball while putting and solved my yips.
LOVE HIS VIDEOS!!!
Hey Brian, where did you go to high school, cause in your q and a video I saw you went to college at a school that’s only about 30 minutes away from where I lived. Keep up that amazing work!
I just watched Markelle Fultz's story (seems like type 1 and 2) and Ben Simmons' issues are interesting too (seems like type 2). Thanks for the Science behind it. Great vid
I’ve also heard that Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (compression of nerves that can make you feel numb in a certain body part) is another physical version of the “Yips” by losing the mental queue as to when to the release a pitch or “forgetting” how to pitch (Rick Ankiel in particular)
Also seemed to happen to Markelle Fultz (I’m sure Doc has a video on that) so you might be on to something
Hey Doc Brian...
Cool stuff!!
A teammate on my 9 ball team (pool) says he.gets the Yips when he's jacked up over another ball or on the rail. He never takes any time to line up the cue ball and just jabs at it. Do you think it could be the Yips? Suggestions to overcome it?
Thanks!!!
PS. I love your take on the whys and hows of these sports injuries. Good refresher for a retired x-ray tech!!
😂 I’ve never clicked so fast
I’m sure you have
Think you can do a piece on Derrick Rose's injuries?.. Not only how they slowed his career right down, but also how he bounced back from them all.
Also, waiting on Hockey's Worst Injuries Pt. 2 😎🏒🥅
Yeah i want more hockey too haha
Your videos are the best
It’s been in sports for a long time! Specifically Baseball, but Golf & Basketball as well
This is a very good video however, it doesn't explain how to overcome performance anxiety? Can anyone recommend where to get this kind of help please?
Hey Brian, is there any difference in the yips Kevin Na had on the tee box where he couldn't even start his swing and got so frustrated he was yelling at himself but couldn't "pull the trigger"?
Hey Doc I have a same occurrence when I write my hand tends to hesitate is there any info you could give me?
Edit: Just saw you mention Writer’s Cramp
do a video on Robbie Lawler vs rory macdonald 2, all out classic mma war but lotta damage
Awesome Jackie moon jersey. How about a breakdown of Jackie’s injuries after wrestling a bear.
Please do a video about the baseball yips
Any thoughts Doc on the possibly early return of lamelo ball?
Can you further break down Kentucky Ballistics accident? I know its not sports related but id love more insight as to how Scott survived.
I came across that video too. It's crazy that dude is alive.
@@timothyhall4794 yeah man. Insane, and all credits to his thumb that he put in his neck. Scott is a beast is all.
THE ROUND MOUND OF REBOUND!!!!
Experiencing the same as Charles for 2 years played as a single digit golfer for 30 years
It’s very frustrating
There was a reason the best golf instructors couldn't fix Charles's swing. They didn't understand the cause of his problems, and I'm not sure Dr. Sutterer does either. I have suffered 35 years with the full body yips. In less than six months in the early 90's, I went from a mid-80's player to not being able to break 130. My swing disintegrated from a smooth transition at the top, to a slight hesitation at the top, to a hitch at the top (essentially, a stopping of the downswing and reloading), to a full-on stalemate in my swing between the top and last arm parallel. The stalemate was very similar to Charles's swing at the bottom -- just a little higher up. I used to think there was some performance anxiety that made this occur while playing with others, but it would happen if I played all alone without any playing partners. I could play two balls in a round by myself; on the first live ball I would exhibit the full yips, and on the second ball I'd be fine. I could spend hours on the range and not have a single yip problem (I'm sure there were problems with my swing!), and then exhibit the problem on my very first swing on the 1st tee. If I hit a practice ball first on each tee, the swing would be fine. But then my live second ball would have the yips. I came to the conclusion that the problem was caused by some bad mechanics combined with a psychological aberration in the nature of performance narcissism or or excessively high expectations of how good I could be. The irony is that my problems began the very first time I played golf after winning a long drive contest at a golf outing. My game has never been the same. Ian Baker Finch's game was never the same after he won the Open Championship, and he belongs right up there with Charles and me. There are millions of horrible golfers with terrible swings, but they don't go down the path that Charles and I went down.
The good news is I have been able to create a better swing mechanically and have been able to minimize the yips. I say "minimize" because I sometimes feel I'm always just one shot away from square one. In fact. the better I'm playing the more likely I will exhibit a lot of stress and yip away a shot in the middle of a great round. But I'm usually able to minimize the times that happens.
I can accept the fact that there is some dystonia involved. For my swing, I would lose all sense of strength and coiling in my swing very early in the downswing, and then I would try to regain the coil by reloading at the top. Eventually my desire not to reload was equal to the necessity of reloading to get on with the swing that I would reach a stalemate. Without having spoken to him, I can see exactly what is causing Charles's psyche to take over his swing and cause the stalemate at the bottom of his swing. If you look at his warm-up swings and his current swing, Charles has a nice hip bump and weight transfer and his kinetic sequence in his downswing is in the proper order. In his faulty swings in years past, he would not start his live downswing with a weight shift. Then he'd turn his shoulders and hips at the exact same time and at the same pace so that when he got to the bottom of his swing, he had no energy, coil or swing power left in his body. So to get that power back into his swing he would start to move back up, and then he'd tried coming down again, but he still didn't have any coil. This is what his body felt. If he continued his swing the club was destined to go straight into the ground. So to complete his swing he'd lurch his body back so that he'd have some room to swing the club through to the ball, although it wasn't really a true swing. It was more like a stab. I idea that Charles thought this was how one would swing a golf club is ridiculous. When Hank Haney was working with him to no avail, I was literally swearing at Hank.
Unresolved emotionally painful injuries, failures, humiliations and other traumatic events are at the core of many athlete’s (performer’s) yips or pervasive performance problems. This is not just my opinion but also many people that work with sports traumas.
What if he stepped up to swing blindfolded? Would knowing he was still trying to hit it make the Yips still occure?
Curious if it returns when he goes back to his old form
hey brian do u know why charles barkley is not in 2k? btw i love your vids
He so smart
Well that's something
You should review the most famous case of the Yips: sir Barney Stinson. He had a horrendous case of the YIPS while attending a Victoria Secret Fashion Show party. But because he is so legendary he quickly recovered and proceeded to bag hunnies.
Legend... wait for it... dary
I always wondered why he swung like that.
Dustin May TJ surgery doc should cover that soon
Is it April again?
Go Flint Tropics!!!!
I was just saying to someone that David Pastrnak has the yips, and now this pops up.
Just noticed Doc misspelled PYSCHOLOGIC. 😂 But still, great video as always! Extremely informative 🙌🏻
Whoops lol
Charles Barkley: _fixes yips_
*YIPPEE*
Do you think Markelle Fultz suffered from the Yips as well?
definitely. remember his twitching free throws?
Yeah that was definitely neurological. That surgery and rehabilitation helped bring out his game on Orlando.
r.i.p. to Chuck's yips. We had some good times.
Can you talk about how Isiah Thomas in 1988 finals played through a ankle sprain
Have you seen Heat Check's video on unbelievable performance by players who overcame gruesome injuries?
with enough painkillers you can play thru anything
You know he’s done interviews where he said he used to swing like that because he got bad advice from a golf pro that used to give him lessons right? Apparently they were trying to fix his slice and thought that would be a good way for some reason.
I can't believe you're calling that a "pretty respectable golf swing."
Is this the same type of thing that occurs with pitchers in baseball? Brings Daniel Bard to mind
Rick Ankiel is the prime example he went from a lights out pitcher to one that couldn’t even get a ball over plate.
I have focal dystonia in my left hand, and I am a violinist/violist. I hope someday to overcome this condition and regain my musical career. If anyone is doing any research on any cures or treatments for FTSD besides botox (not interested), then PLEASE LET ME KNOW. :-)
I NEVER KNEW YIPS WAS A THING AHAHAH
I'm just like Barkley. I used to be a very decent golfer, my swing was smooth and it would go straight and far. Overtime and the more I practiced I started to get worse. So bad that I went from getting mad at getting double bogey on a hole....to hoping for atleast a double. From shooting 90s to shooting 125+s.
It really is a mental block and I can sympathize with Sir Charles because what is happening to him is what is currently happening to me. It's a horrible feeling because everyone thinks they can somehow fix our swing. But they cant access the part of our swing that really ruins it, the brain.
Now my wife is struggling with the same thing, from 85 to 130. She wanted to let the golf but now i find a psychologist to help her. I hope for the best.
@@sergewerner497 what happened? Is she like overthinking the golf swing too?
@@Silenced_by_nazi_youtube We don't know. But it started slowly after her third hole in one. She gradually shortened her backswing until now, She had 2 surgery at the spine . Her pratice swing is beautiful and powerful when she is in front of a ball she have no swing at all . It'not even a quarter of a backswing. I finally find a psychologist to take care of her. Gol is too fun to let down.
@@sergewerner497 ugh yea that sounds exactly like me except without the surgery and hole in ones. Seems like we’re in the same boat. Let me know if they find out the fix.
I’ve fixed my yips. I realized what I was doing with my swing that caused it 😂😂😂
I was a pretty solid ball player in HS. Could hit and had a decent glove and decent arm but for whatever reason I would psyche myself out throwing to first from second base. Embarrassing.
Never heard of this lol
From dud to stud!
For the algorithm
'pyschologic'
I don't know whether I should feel happy for him that he FIXED IT or embarrassed for him that it took THIS LONG🤣
I don’t find anything embarrassing about having a problem
Yessir
Ted Lasso
I always thought he was just being silly and dancing!
today I learned that yip is a word.
Charles Barkley barbecue! chicken
You need to do Igor golushkin the guy who dropped 400lbs on his chest
WOW
His swing was Turrible lol now we can't laugh at him anymore. I do hope it improves his game. I hate golf ⛳
Jordan left the room.
😂 CB had a good swing
Then some swing coach’s got into his head.
He finally shut out the noise and just swinging away
"PYSCHOLOGIC"
That's not the yips. That was his..technique
Love how the doc tries so hard on keeping his speech and not laugh. 👍
When is he about to laugh?
Anyone who thinks golf isn’t a sport doesn’t know what a sport is.
Ok but you’re wrong
It’s not a sport
is Lebron choking? hmmm
Da hell are yips
Never heard of it
Looks like he's lagging
Edit: thanks for explaining doc this was interesting didn't know it was a thing
I can’t believe when make fun of distressed people, how low you have to be to joke about someone who is facing a big problem and a challenge
its called human nature
I think this is a case of the "miracles". This is usually based off of luck or blessing from God. In our studies of Barkley's original swing, we believe this was a blessing from God. Now we can't be 100% sure but you be the judge 🤣
If Barkley can do it anybody can
