LECTURE 12: RUNNING Flashcards
stance phase of running is _%
40%
IC, midstance, toe off + float phase 1
swing phase of running is _%
60%
initial swing
midswing
terminal swing
+ float phase 2
during IC, how much knee flexion should you have?
20-30 for shock absorption
how much hip extension during toe off
5-10 extension
how much knee flexion during midswing
120-130 flexion
(end range knee flexion)
IC mm activity
big stabilizing phase
glute max/med isometric
quad eccentric control
hamstring reduce anterior tib translation
tib ant eccentric control of foot drop
post tib eccentric control of pronation
What injury do you see often during IC?
hamstring strain proximally
mid stance mm activity
Gluteus Max concentric contraction for hip extension
Gluteus Med and Min support hip and knee
Hamstrings concentrically control tibia as knee extends
**Posterior Tib **eccentrically controls pronation and readies to complete rocker motion
toe off phase mm activity
all gastroc/soleus! concentric PROPULSION
also iliopsoas eccentric contraction for potential energy of initial swing
initial swing mm activity
Iliopsoas potential energy now released as leg
“slingshots” forward
midswing mm activity
tib ant concentric DF
terminal swing mm activity
hamstrings eccentric control knee extension
_ is most common site of injury for new runners
knee
highest injury rate at age _
12-14 (peak height velocity, bone mineral content)
decreased risk of OA in _ runners compared to sedentary and competitive
recreational
What are the 2 biggest risk factors of running injury
- Hx of LE injury (not healed original injury, uncorrected biomech problem)
- training error (low/high running freq, high running distance, overload principle)
bone stress injury
- Focal tenderness along medial
border of tibia - Soft-tissue swelling and redness
- Pain with Activity → Pain with ADLs
MTSS: medial tibial stress syndrome or SHIN SPLINTS
cause of shin splints/ MTSS
stress reaction –> stress fx
osteoclast resorbption exceeds osteoblast formation due to insufficient recovery
*if you get an image in acute phase, prob won’t see anything
special tests for shin splints
fulcrum test
tuning fork sign
bump test: bump their heel like ground force with running
factors to address with running injury (bone stress injury)
- activity mod (rest, low impact aerobic)
- RED-S
- Gait Analysis (if shin splints yes, if stress fx, wait)
What else can we do to improve bone stress injuries?
plyometrics
load bones in multidirections
few reps, high loads progressing, several times a day
what is the most common running related MSK injury in knee
PFPS
TTP medial and lateral patella facets
Retropatellar creptitus
Pain with prolonged sitting
PFPS
Cooke et. al. PFPS cluster:
pain with resisted knee extension
pain with squat
pain with kneeling
