This week’s Q & A Topics:
- Bill can you give a quick overview about the propulsion phases?
- Can you explain eccentric/concentric orientation? Is it different than short or long
- How do you approach rehabbing a core muscle injury/sports hernia?
- Advice on handling current DPT education knowing that much of it is no longer best practices.
- Bill, are you seeing any differences in typical presentations from the neck up (e.g. c-spine, jaw, palate) in people with an inhalation bias vs exhalation bias?
- Is there any case where you would try to cue a position or action from the neck up along with biasing IR/pronation/extension/dorsiflexion or ER/supination/flexion/plantar flexion?
- If the squat is an expansion pattern and deadlift is a compressive pattern, does that mean someone with a narrow infrasternal angle would generally be better at a squat since they have more space to expand into, or would they generally be better at a deadlift since they are already in an exhaled/compressed position?
- Can you expand a bit more on what is going on in the suitcase carry you posted on your recent video? I tried it myself with a test-retest of internal and external rotation of my shoulders and there was a significant improvement.
- Why a squat is an eccentric/expansive/inhale biased movement pattern?
- Why a hinge/press/pull are concentric/compressive/exhale biased movement patterns?
- Apart from the squat what are the other (if any) key expansive movement patterns – single leg/single arm movements?
- if someone has an anteriorly rotated pelvis that is in an exhaled position with limited hip mobility, what will be the first step/exercise that you would use?
- What is the most impactful philosophical book you have read?
