Athletic Injuries 210 is a chiropractic sports medicine course on the multi-sport endurance athlete — the triathlete whose swimmer's shoulder, cycling ergonomics, and running gait each generate their own overuse syndromes, then hand the accumulated load to the next discipline. Dr. Donald Ozello analyzes the biomechanical transitions between swimming, cycling, and running to identify injury triggers, works through advanced orthopedic assessments for the common endurance pathologies — ITB syndrome and subacromial impingement among them — identifies the kinetic-chain dysfunctions specific to triathletes across training intensities, and builds integrated chiropractic treatment plans focused on structural alignment and functional recovery.
The triathlete is three athletes sharing one kinetic chain, and the injury rarely announces which discipline produced it — the shoulder complaint may start in the pool but be sustained on the aero bars, and the knee that hurts on the run may be a bike-fit problem. This 2-hour online course is built for the doctor who treats endurance athletes at any distance, from sprint-tri weekenders to Ironman age-groupers, with the load-management and prevention protocols that keep training continuity intact. Every completion generates an instant certificate for your renewal file.

Your Sports Medicine Faculty
Donald Ozello, DC, CCN, CCSM — instructor of this course — authors the sport-specific core of the series, nine courses spanning basketball through racquet sports, as a certified sports-medicine chiropractor who also leads the Adjusting & Manual Therapy curriculum. A 1995 graduate of the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic, Navy veteran, and founder of Championship Chiropractic in Las Vegas, Dr. Ozello is certified in sports medicine and clinical nutrition and serves as faculty for CCEDseminars and Texas Chiropractic College. His courses read the sport first: the movement demands, the loading patterns, and the injuries they predict.
Dennis O'Hara, DC, DACBSP brings the sports specialty's board credential — Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Board of Sports Practitioners — to the highest-stakes coursework: emergency procedures for the sideline physician (203) and athletic injuries of the shoulder (206).
Michael Hall, DC, FIACN examines football's turf toe (208) with a chiropractic neurologist's precision, and Howard Benedikt, DC, DCBCN — board-certified in clinical nutrition — teaches dehydration and heat illness (213) where physiology and field safety meet.

Where Athletic Injury Hours Count — State Rules Worth Knowing
Athletic injury coursework is clinical subject matter — assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation — which is exactly what several state boards ask for. In Iowa, these hours feed the 36-hour clinical case-management minimum; in Rhode Island, they serve the 50-of-60 clinical requirement; and in Vermont — where practice-building coursework earns no credit at all — patient-care education like this counts fully under the clinical-focus rule.
Online-format allowances still vary by state — some accept every hour online, others cap distance learning or require in-person blocks. Check your state's guide in the full state directory before building your renewal plan.
Build Your Sports CE Block
Every course in the series is 2 hours at $40, so the automatic discounts do the bundling for you: any three courses (6 hours) earns 10% off, and five or more (10+ hours) in a single order earns 20% off — the complete 26-hour series lands at roughly $416 instead of $520, with no promo codes. The natural pairings for this course are the disciplines the race is made of — 204 Swimming Injuries for the open-water leg and 209 Exercise Injuries for the training block between races — and 213 Dehydration & Heat Illness for the race-day physiology every endurance doctor should hold.

Also known as triathlon injuries, endurance athlete chiropractic care, ITB syndrome treatment, swimmer's shoulder in triathletes, and multi-sport overuse injury management.
How many CE hours is Athletic Injuries 210, and what is the format?

Does this course cover ITB syndrome and swimmer's shoulder in triathletes?
Yes. Iliotibial band syndrome from the bike-run chain and subacromial impingement from the swim are the endurance pathologies the course is built around — with the orthopedic assessment that identifies each, the discipline-specific mechanics behind them (swimming shoulder mechanics, cycling ergonomics, running gait), and the integrated treatment, load-management, and prevention plan that keeps the athlete training through the season.
