Exercise of the Week - Single Leg Squat Variations Joe Heiler PT, CSCS
This week I wanted to run three variations of the single leg squat by you all. Any of you using the Y Balance test, these will look quite familiar. Each of these emphasizes different muscle groups and can be used selectively to decrease stress where needed. . . . keep reading
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. . . . keep reading
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. . . . keep reading
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. . . . keep reading
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. . . . keep reading
Core Stability - Part III Joe Heiler PT, CSCS
In Part III, I will discuss tall kneeling and half kneeling progressions. Coming to an upright position is the next logical step and forces the athlete to stabilize in more demanding positions.
The exercises to discuss then are Chops and Lifts. These are great exercises that incorporate PNF patterns of upper extremity movement while maintaining great core stability in a variety of positions. Another advantage to performing chops and lifts is the ability to spot right to left asymmetries in hip and core stability. . . . keep reading
New Research and other Random Thoughts Joe Heiler PT,CSCS
I've decided to rant a bit this week, hope you don't mind. I just get tired of hearing the arguement for research, research, and more research, but let's just ignore what all the great clinicians and trainers out there are doing because their years of experience and fine tuning tell them its right. . . . keep reading
