![]() This screen is observing your reflex stabilization and weight shifting and coordination efforts of your mobility and stability in a basic climbing pattern. body lifts as one unit with no lag in spineĠ- Pain Corrective Exercises for Trunk Stability Push Up Women- performed rep with thumbs aligned with clavicle the body lifts as a unit with no lag in the spineĢ-Men- performed rep with thumbs aligned with chin Women- Performed rep with thumbs aligned with the chin Scoring- Different scoring points for men and womenģ-Men- Performed rep with thumbs aligned with temples ![]() This is testing your ability to stabilze the spine during a symmetrical pushing movement.Ī clearing exam is also administered at the end of this test. It is testing your reflex core stabilization through movement. This screen is not measuring your upper body strength. The non-moving limb remains neutral positionĢ- Vertical line of the malleolus resides between mid-thigh and joint lineġ- Vertical line of the malleolus resides below the joint lineĠ- Pain Corrective Exercises for Active Strait Leg Raise It also is challenging your hamstring and gastric-soleus (calves) flexibility while maintaining a stable pelvis.ģ- Vertical line of the malleolus (ankle bone) resides between mid-thigh and ASIS (hip bone) This test identifies active mobility of the lifted leg while keeping continuous core stability and the available hip extension limit of the down leg.īasically it is testing the ability to separate the two legs in an unloaded position. This looks like a simple test but looks are decieiving and this is 2nd in line with our correctives behind shoulder mobiltiy. Scapulothoratic dysfunction may be presentĪt the end of this test you are also taking through our first clearing test for pain.Ġ- Pain in screen or clearing test Corrective Exercises for Shoulder Mobility Scapular (shoulder baldes) stability depends on thoracic (upper back) mobility. Some reasons why you may not be able to complete or perform well and why it is so important to improve your score: This screen is testing your ability to internally rotate and adduction of one arm and flexion and externally rotate and abduction in the other. Knee does not touch behind heel of front footĠ- Pain Corrective Exercises for In-Line Lunge Dowel and feet do not stay in sagittal plane Knee touches board behind heel of front foot. Some reasons you might not be able to complete this test or perform it well: This movement challenges the hips, knees, ankles and foot mobility and stability all at the same time of challenging the flexibility of some of the upper body muscles. This is a component of the deceleration movements and direction changes produced in exercise, activity and sport. In-Line LungeĪnother one of our primal movement patterns. – Minimal to no movement is noted in lumbar spineĢ- Alignment is lost between hips, knees, and anklesġ- Contact between foot and hurdle is madeĠ- Any pain is felt during the test Corrective Exercises for Hurdle Step 3. That is how we move.ģ- Hips, knees, and ankles remain aligned in sagittal plane No single part of your body is being tested. We want to avoid any excessive upper body movement while using a basic stepping pattern. This movement requires proper coordination and stability of the hips, moving one at a time, while the core and pelvis must maintain alignment and stability themselves. This screen will help expose any compensation or asymmetry in your stepping ability. Knees and Dowel are not aligned over feet – Femur is below horizontal (hips below knees)ġ- Tibia and upper torso are not parallel The dowel rod overhead helps to test symmetrical mobility and stability of the shoulders, scapular region and thoracic spine.ģ- Upper torso is parallel with tibia (shin) or toward vertical We use it to test bilateral, symmetrical, functional mobility and stability of the hips, knees, and ankles. ![]() The deep squat with arms overhead is a fully coordinated movement, demonstrating total body mechanics and neuromuscular control when performed properly. Please understand if your coach thinks that achievement of the deep squat cannot be reached a simple toe touch will be used instead. ![]() But as we grow up we don't use the pattern like we should. If you watch a baby stand up, they have perfect squatting form. The others are lunging, twisting, bending, throwing, kicking, and gait. The deep squat is one of our most primal movement patterns.
