Function?
Gray Cook We should all own a little of the famous Forrest Gump saying Stupid is as Stupid Does. I like that little saying because it keeps me in check. It makes me consider if what I'm doing is consistent with what I believe. We can all use a little dose humility sometimes, and I have a great example for you. We've all spouted out the term function at some point in our careers--the stupid part is in not clearly defining function first. Whether for or against the term, we'd better define it before we champion or bash it. It's our professional responsibility and personally I'm not satisfied with all our inconsistencies. . . .

Webinar - Dynamic Shoulder Stabilization
Paul Gorman PTA, ATC, CSCS, RKC Build a strong, athletic shoulder of "elastic steel."

This cutting edge shoulder stability program incorporates total body movement corrections, kettlebell drills, grip strength, breathing, developmental kinesiology and muscle activation retraining to enhance performance. . . .

Audio Interview with Dr. Thomas Michaud
Dr. Michaud's new book is titled, "Human Locomotion - the Conservative Management of Gait-Related Disorders". I heard some great things about Tom and the new book so wanted to get him on the site to talk more about some of the big topics in the book such as the evolutionary adaptations in our anatomical structure specifically of the foot, lower extremity, and pelvis, differences in structure between sprinters and runners and how that might affect your treatment strategy, barefoot vs shod training and running, pros and cons of stretching, and how an altered gait pattern can affect common dysfunctions at the hip and knee. . . .

Hip Stabilization Exercises
Kevin Neeld Over the last few years, I've written and talked quite a bit about preventing hip injuries in hockey players. Unfortunately, things like adductor and hip flexor strains have become accepted as "part of the game", and now we're seeing a surge of femoroacetabular impingement, labral tear, and sports hernia cases. The underlying mechanisms to many of these injuries can be pretty complex, but once you get it, many of these cases can be prevented. . . .

Exercise of the Week - the Running Man
Joe Heiler PT, CSCS I was re-watching Craig Liebenson's Functional Performance Training DVD last night, and wanted to use one of the exercises from that as the 'Exercise of the Week'. The DVD is packed with great ideas grooving and training the major patterns of the squat, lunge, functional reaches, pushing/pulling, rotary training, and more. Over the next few weeks I'll highlight some of those exercises that maybe you haven't seen previously. . . .

Dan John's Intervention DVD Review
I recently reviewed Dan John's newest DVD - 'Intervention', and have to say I picked up a ton of great information and was thoroughly entertained. Not that there was all this 'never seen before' information that is going to rock the strength and conditioning world, but he takes what he knows through his years of experience and organizes it in the most comprehensive, yet simple to follow, way I have seen yet. . . .

Joe Heiler PT, CSCS Day 2 at the symposium in Chicago and wanted to introduce the 4x4 matrix with this post. It's a relatively new concept they have developed for progressing stability based corrective exercise. This isn't the whole story in a short post like this, but if you really think about how it's set up, the number of options are limitless! . . .

Webinar - Kinesiology Taping Strategies: Enhancing Movement for Rehabilitation and Performance
Chris Nentarz Our rehabilitation and performance training methods should strive to find the place where optimal movement patterns produce powerful, efficient force. Therefore, the core of our techniques should consist of assessing and intervening on movement based dysfunctions. Kinesiology taping is a recognized therapeutic intervention that, when used appropriately, can be an effective and efficient way to enhance our client's and patient's motor abilities. In this webinar, Chris will discuss the foundational principles and advanced methods of kinesiology taping that will allow you to re-write your clients movement programs and improve your clinical results. . . .

The Functional Movement Symposium
I wanted to let everyone know The Functional Movement Symposium is right around the corner, November 4-5 in Chicago. Only a couple more days to get the discounted rate. This is an overview of Functional Movement Systems (as many of you know it from the Movement Book) so much of the discussion will be integrating the FMS, SFMA, and Y Balance test into your practice or training setting. Should be a great time and hopefully I will see some of you there. . . .

Elite Blog - Movement Proficiency and the Ankle
Joe Heiler PT, CSCS I've already had a few questions come up in response to the first blog post: What are the basic movements that someone should be proficient with to train and compete in athletics? What are some ways to address these movements in my training? There are quite a few movements I feel are quite necessary to move well enough to keep injury risk low and to enhance speed, power, jumping ability, etc. I'll get into all of them in time, but for now I'm going to spend more time on the 'Big 3' from the Functional Movement Screen. . . .
