lesson plan 14 Flashcards
which posture is described as an increased anterior pelvic tilt with increased hip flexion?
lordosis
what muscles would need to be stretched with lordosis posture?
muscles like QL, erectors, rectus femoris, or hip flexors
what muscles would need to be strengthened with lordosis posture?
muscles like abdominals, hamstrings, or glut muscles like max or med
what posture is increased hip extension, flexed thoracic segments, and excessive shifting of the pelvis anteriorly?
relaxed or swayback
what muscles would need to be stretched with swayback posture?
upper abdominals, internal intercostals, glut max, or hamstrings
what muscles would need to be strengthened with swayback posture?
lower abdominals, hip flexors, rectus femoris, or iliopsoas
what posture is a posterior pelvic tilt with no head forward posture included?
flat low back
what muscles would need to be stretched with flat low back posture?
hamstrings, glut max, or rectus abdominus
what muscles would need to be strengthened with flat low back posture?
lumbar erectors and rectus femoris, or iliopsoas
what posture is increased thoracic curve, posterior pelvic tilt, protracted scapula or rounded shoulders with forward head posture?
kyphosis with forward head posture
what muscles would need to be stretched with kyphosis and head forward posture?
pec major or minor, latissimus doors, serrates anterior, elevator scapula, scm, scalene, upper traps, suboccipitals
what muscles would need to be strengthened with kyphosis posture?
rhomboids, middle traps, hyoids, longs coli
what posture is decreased thoracic curve, decreased scapula or clavicle, and external shoulder rotation?
flat upper back (military posture)
what muscles would need to be stretched with flat upper back posture?
anterior neck, rhomboids, mid traps, thoracic erectors
what muscles would need to be strengthened with flat upper back posture?
pec major and minor and intercostals
what posture would have an excessive curve of the spine to one side and could present as extreme lateral flexion?
scoliosis
