Ep. 16 The Hidden Power of Isometrics: Safer Strength for Rehab, Mobility & Longevity | Chrys Johnson 7-16-26

In this episode of Assistive Tech Today, we sit down with Chrys Johnson, founder of No Limit Squad and a leading authority on modern isometric training. Discover how static strength training can be a game-changer for rehabilitation, injury prevention, and safe strength building. Chrys breaks down the essential science behind Yielding Isometrics (holding a position against resistance) and Overcoming Isometrics (pushing or pulling against an immovable object). We dive deep into how these low-impact, high-reward techniques can be adapted to improve joint health, preserve longevity, and maintain vital mobility for the elderly and individuals living with physical disabilities or limited mobility. Tune in to learn how to unlock maximum force production and build a resilient body without the traditional wear-and-tear of heavy weightlifting.

Ep. 14 Play Is Powerful: How Positioning Unlocks Learning | Dr. Tina Weisman 5-28-26

Learn more about today's guest: In this episode of Assistive Technology Today, I welcome my longtime friend and colleague, Dr. Tina Weisman, for a conversation about two topics that are fundamental to child development: adaptive play and positioning. Tina and I have known and worked together for more than 24 years, and she shares insights gained from over four decades of experience as a pediatric occupational therapist, educator, and mentor.We discuss how children learn through play, why access to play opportunities matters, and how adaptive toys, assistive technology, and creative intervention strategies can help children engage, explore, and develop new skills. We also dive into the often-overlooked importance of positioning and how proper seating and support can dramatically impact a child's ability to learn, communicate, participate, and interact with their environment.Whether you're a therapist, educator, caregiver, or assistive technology professional, this episode offers practical takeaways on creating opportunities for learning through play and positioning children for success.Links: Linkedin: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbnV3bFpWVGtueDdJRC1pTzRwQlY2X0IzSXdqUXxBQ3Jtc0trRER3bkNaemllV1pQaXpNenljcmFBdVNxM1RTWjA0NFp6LVJRRmRHWHpPRXZVTnFuM3VpN0xjMTkxYU5vTVAzVUlzTkh4N2NkTUliT1NXellqY3NCMXFscXhaQ3JxVHExVHVTQV81ZGhXQWQ1RFJNWQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Ftina-weisman-otd-otr-l-148784b2&v=gYpFf3B3Mm8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> / tina-weisman-otd-otr-l-148784b2 </a> Yeshiva University: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbk5BSGRyQVRkZmYtTVNzX1ZpUUNXaGlLUzlkd3xBQ3Jtc0trWklTTHNUN1lza0YzYmJISHVRYVVYa0wxVFVxMExkTkpKcTE3b2RYSmdXZmJzT0lLYWJoVDhUYlFmR0NZMEQzT2Z1STg0N0pLOTNjQlA3Y0daQzhuRVVvUkY2bE1tUVlJc0J1RTZNTTQtVFpGdEVBcw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.yu.edu%2Fkatz&v=gYpFf3B3Mm8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.yu.edu/katz</a> “Welcome to Assistive Tech Today Podcast — where innovation meets inclusion.I’m Vinny Livoti, an assistive technology specialist with over twenty-four years of experience supporting children, teens, and adults with special needs through technology.From product design and development to education, consulting, and hands-on demonstrations, this podcast is dedicated to exploring today’s cutting-edge assistive and adaptive technologies.This is Assistive Tech Today Podcast — empowering lives through technology.”<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbEsxQW9HU1BCMWNDSGRmcE9EYWF0QzhXaU1Ed3xBQ3Jtc0ttLVlPS1haY1kwUngzb19NZGJwT2VramkyRmd3VFJCeHFoZnB4TThhVS1CN080S0tCbXIyT3kwWFFnU0I3TXRVWnhFU2wyb2Y3bC1Gc0JzaGgwTkhRdlBNQnBudjRfNlJQV1NFdTVYS1NTUW9TaURrbw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Fvincent-livoti-46912767&v=gYpFf3B3Mm8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> / vincent-livoti-46912767 </a>"Please note: Many people in the neurodiverse community prefer identity‑first language and describe themselves as “Autistic,” which is also the language our guest typically uses.
