Weekly Update and Q & A for November 24, 2019

I had to miss the Q & A last week because of The Intensive IX, so here are the links to this week’s YouTube videos:

• The IFAST Podcast #2 – The IFAST Internship: https://youtu.be/kvCH0TtVak8
• How to Introduce Rolling into Assessments, Breathing, and Training: https://youtu.be/YNvyF8BSMWA
• The IFAST Podcast #3 – How We Hire at IFAST (and when to fire!): https://youtu.be/FXquBOCG04A
• A Better Way to Measure Shoulder Flexion: https://youtu.be/jw1CmVIedB4
• How to Measure the Infrasternal Angle: https://youtu.be/9WbPR4KIsQo
• How to Mobilize the Ankle to Increase Propulsion: https://youtu.be/0LUNtUVL4Ow

Topics on Instagram this week (@billhartmanpt):

• Mixed grip deadlifts and body orientation
  How synovial joints work and development of arthritis
  Training to bias inhalation and early propulsion
  Daily videos for The 16%

Upcoming Media! I was interviewed on The QB docs podcast with Drew Keil this week so be looking for that coming up in a few weeks.

This week’s questions for the Q & A:

• Could you elaborate on the “chessboard” which would result in a ton of hip IR with limitations in hip ER? It seems that most compensations result in some brand of anterior pelvic orientation which ought to bias the acetabulum into allowing for much more ER than IR (as in the case of a typical compressed wide ISA individual).
• How does the anteriorly rotated innominate bias the femur into IR?
• Question referring to ISA:
  After establishing wide/narrow what will be your next step.
  Also what is done with individuals who do not have wide nor narrow. You can say your 108.8. What strategies would be used there?
• So if the ribs and can open and close as the arms go overhead, would that be an optimal ISA? And what would that mean movement-wise for the person?
• In your shoulder flexion video, you had Nicki demonstrate a self-test. Is there a cluster of self-tests that would provide the most information for what needs restoration prior to or during training?
• You have previously mentioned how you are keen to avoid treating clients like rehab clients if you can avoid it. You mentioned that if warm-ups were better this could address a lot of issues. I think you like the bear crawl – could you talk more about your warm-up exercise program?
• Asymmetrical ribcage? Or am I just always turning right?
• Would you subscribe to the idea that individual limbs move in a spiral movement trajectory only, or are there some straight line and diagonal influences as well as seems to be evidenced by Collagen lay down? How do internal fluid pressures influence this? Would it be incorrect to consider a concept of spiral muscular/Fascial loops that work like compression and tension-type fluid-filled springs?
• You stated that although early and late propulsion look similar, the hip position varies between the two, how does the hip position change from early to late propulsion?
