Expanding on the Joint by Joint Approach - Excerpted from Functional Movement Systems
Gray Cook The original conversation between Mike Boyle and I regarding the joint-by-joint approach to training was more about the thought process than about physiological facts and absolutes. This has been the topic of lots of discussion, but here is the pearl: Our modern bodies have started developing tendencies. Those of us who are sedentary, as well as those of us who are active, seem to migrate to a group of similar mobility and stability problems. Of course you will find exceptions, but the more you work in exercise and rehabilitation, the more you will see these common tendencies, patterns and problems. . . .

Pre-Conference FMS/SFMA Course Link
Was talking to Kyle Kiesel last week and he sent me the link for part of Gray's talk that they filmed at the 3rd Annual Conference on Movement Dysfunction in Scotland. He thought it would be good to link to for those not as familiar with their work, but also good to hear for those of us who are quite familiar to reinforce what we are currently doing in our professions. As always, you'll probably have to listen 2 or 3 times to get it all: . . .

Continuing Education with Craig Liebenson and Clare Frank (Summer and Fall)
I just wanted to give everyone a head's up on what courses will be available this summer and fall from Craig and Clare. Been getting lots of questions about how to learn more about the Prague School's Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization program, the Janda Approach, and how Craig integrates it all in his "Modern Spine Care" courses. They only run a few courses a year so I wanted to get these up so anyone interested in going didn't miss them. . . .

SFMA/FMS Case Study - Patellofemoral Pain Sydrome in an Elite Level Snowboarder
The patient in this case is a 17 yo male I saw recently with bilateral anterior knee pain for about 2 months. The official diagnosis was PFPS. The patient had won the Junior Nationals in his age group for rails and jumps. As a result of his victory, he was given the opportunity to train in New Zealand for a month. At that point he was snowboarding 6-8 hours per day, and of course that's when he started having pain. This case study will show how I used the SFMA and aspects of the FMS to get him ready to go back into heavy training. . . .

Week in Review
Joe Heiler PT, CSCS This article is a compilation of some of the interesting things I've seen this week, and some things I've been thinking about for awhile. More to do with knees and shoulders than anything. This is something I'm considering doing more often as it's something members could contribute to quite easily. My goal is to continue to get more members involved in sharing their expertise whether its in the forum or in articles, videos, and interviews. So if anyone has anything they want to share that can be thrown into a quick article, please let me know. . . .

More on the Functional Movement Screen and Y Balance Test
Joe Heiler PT, CSCS I've got an article coming out in October in Physical Therapy Products dealing with designing strength training programs based on results from the FMS and Y Balance Test . This page is to give more insight into what these two screening systems are all about. It's hard to do a good job in 1,800 words so here is a little extra reading for all their subscribers. For current members I have updated things a bit when it comes to the order in which to break down the FMS so you may want to check that out. If you are relatively new to the site be sure to catch two of the older "Exercises of the Week" that have to do with correcting the Shoulder Mobility and Hurdle Step screens. . . .

SFMA Update 2009 and the Significance of Regional Interdependence
Joe Heiler PT, CSCS As most of you know, I just hosted the Selective Functional Movement Assessment Level 1 course in Traverse City. Phil Plisky came up from Evansville to teach the course and did an excellent job. I took the first course almost 2 years ago now and some things have changed. The system is the same but the way they teach it changes with time as well as some of the corrective techniques. As with any program it should be an evolving process and always working to be better. . . .

Upper Extremity/Trunk Stability Test using the Y Balance Test
Phil Plisky PT, DSc, OCS, ATC, CSCS The Y Balance Test has been a great addition to our clinic testing athletes for return to play. Now we have an upper extremity/trunk stability test to go along with it. Check out the video and testing protocol. As Phil gets more data on norms, what constitutes significant asymmetry, etc. I'll get that out. . . .

Exercise of the Week - Pallof Press
Joe Heiler PT, CSCS The Pallof Press (named after the PT John Pallof) has been made quite popular by guys like Eric Cressey and Mike Robertson. It's a great anti-rotation exercise that can easily be used with athletes or any patient for that manner. It's a tremendous challenge to hip and core stability which is exactly what most of our athletes need, especially those that rotate for a living. . . .
