LEC9: Practical Application of Exercise Selection Flashcards
1
Q
Anatomical Considerations
A
Relative lengths of torso, femur, and shin
2
Q
Factor Influencing Squat Patterns: tall torso
A
- Exaggerated Dorsiflexion (natural or artificial)
- Short relative femur
- Long relative torso
- Wide/Externally Rotated stance
3
Q
Factor Influencing Squat Patterns: flexed torso
A
- Limited Dorsiflexion (talocrural, triceps surae)
- Long relative femur
- Short relative torso
- Narrow/Neutral stance
- Knee valgus pattern
4
Q
What is GRID?
A
Glenohumeral Internal Rotational Deficit
5
Q
What is TROM?
A
Total Range of Motion of Shoulder
6
Q
What is abnormal GRID?
A
A loss of motion over 18 degrees (comparing sides)
7
Q
What is normal TROM?
A
Both sides differ by less than 5 degrees
8
Q
What is neutral plane of the scapula (“scaption”)
A
30-45 degrees from horizontal extension
9
Q
Lanky Wingspan (Laying down position)
A
- Shoulder at risk for injury
- Poor leverage
- Long lifting distance
10
Q
Stubby Wingspan (Laying down position)
A
- Strong shoulder position
- Rad leverage
- Itty bitty lifting distance
11
Q
Lanky Wingspan (Clean position)
A
- Rad leverage
- Short distance to lockout
12
Q
Stubby Wingspan (Clean position)
A
- This depth requires superhuman hip mobility
- Hard to stabilize a horizontal spine
13
Q
Exercise Based Exercise Selection
A
- Rehab/RTP
- Injury prevention (step 2 of analysis)
- Strength deficiencies
- Dynamic Correspondence
