I had a very productive mentorship call yesterday with a very interesting presentation that should be helpful in understanding the foot.
With @neurocoffee in hand, let’s have at it.
Here’s the presentation: A client with limited SLR, limited hip flexion, and limited hip IR but a very high arch. The conflict appears to be a late propulsive strategy in the hip/pelvis but an early foot strategy.
There’s one detail left out that I show in today’s video.
If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.
If you can understand an airplane wing, you can understand the arch of the foot.
Everyone loves talking about squats, so here’s a great one to start off the week. Grab your @neurocoffee and get ready for a great week.
From Dan:
How does one visually distinguish between anterior compression halting a squat or compression above the level of the trochanter halting a squat in the “sticking point” zone?
If you’re a thrower, the parent of a thrower, if you’ve ever had a diagnosis of golfer’s elbow or medial epicondylitis, today’s Q&A is for you.
The ulnar nerve gets accused of things that it can’t actually do, so here’s where I think the understanding needs to go. Grab your @neurocoffee for today’s Q&A.
From Stephen:
What are some non surgical strategies (breathing, reaching, compressive/expansive etc) for addressing ulnar nerve hypermobility? Does this often coincide with very depressed shoulders and how might these be related? Is lack of shoulder external or internal rotation often a factor that drives this? And how does supination and pronation and biceps/triceps come into play here? I know there’s a lot of sub-questions in there but just love hearing your perspective!
