  • Q & A for The 16% – How do Sensory Systems and Neurology Factor into Movement

    Q & A for The 16% – How do Sensory Systems and Neurology Factor into Movement

    A deep, philosophical question for a Monday. This one will take 2 cups of @neurocoffee.

    From Eduard:
    the model of inhalation and exhalation works and it is to your credit to show simple solutions to put a human body into positions to facilitate the desired outcome and to restore normal breathing mechanics and movement options. But i think the we have to acknowledge that it is not only a body or body part position that influences the mechanics of movement and posture but also neurological in and output. Shouldn’t we incorporate the neurology of sensing and the effect of autonomic states into your model?

  • Q & A for The 16% – Young Athlete Development and ISA Compensations & Strategies

    Q & A for The 16% – Young Athlete Development and ISA Compensations & Strategies

    My @neurocoffee is in hand and here’s this morning’s Q&A with a little bit of long-term athletic development feel to it.

    From Nate:
    I work do a lot of work with athletes in the age groups of 11-25 and I was curious if you think ISA compensations take time to manifest and therefore hard to detect in younger or prepubesent people?   As a follow up to this question do you feel that it would be smart to expose young and/or inexperienced athletes to the entire spectrum of the propulsion arc so they don’t slip to far into inhale or exhale strategies?

  • Q & A for The 16% – Training for Compressive Strategies in a Wide ISA Client

    Q & A for The 16% – Training for Compressive Strategies in a Wide ISA Client

    I have my @neurocoffee and I have a great Q & A for today with visual aids included.

    From Jimmy: I was wondering if you could go into a bit more detail about wide ISAs that show a swayback/posterior tilt, where would you start with someone like this? Following on from this, would that change for someone with an asymmetrical ISA?

    I had to go low tech and draw a diagram for you, so be ready with your screen capture. Send questions to askbillhartman at gmail with “Bill Hartman question” in the subject line.

  • Q & A for The 16% – Range of Motion Interpretation Mistakes

    Q & A for The 16% – Range of Motion Interpretation Mistakes

    I get a lot of questions as to how I interpret table tests, and how I relate the results of them to representations of the archetypes, symmetry or asymmetry, and what interventions are best.

    Your chessboard (the compilation of all your table measures) produces a 4D representation of your client in space. This guides your thinking and your process. A common mistake or misbelief is that you’re measuring from some imaginary zero point based on dead guy anatomy. While some zero point can be a representative model in certain circumstances, it also promotes misinterpretation of many table tests.

    Here’s an example of how you can have symmetrical measures on the table that are not truly symmetrical.

  • Q & A for The 16% – Overcoming the Limitation of Your Model of Movement

    Q & A for The 16% – Overcoming the Limitation of Your Model of Movement

    I’ve my @neurocoffee, hope you have yours.

    Here’s today’s Q & A.

    From Carmine:
    I appreciate the content you’ve continued to put out during these times.  I have a question in regard to your model. George Box said “All models are wrong, some are useful.” What would you say are the limitations of your model? And how do the limitations of your model influence your decision making?
