Using vectors as a tool, we can identify the necessary movement and loading requirements to maximize sport-specific propulsive patterns and choose appropriate training interventions when there are shortcomings.
So how can we actually apply “applied biomechanics”? To start, we must build an intuition around how movement is quantified. There are two basic building blocks: scalars and vectors.
The human body does not function as a symmetrical machine. So why do we innately strive for an unachievable standard of symmetry as an indicator of our movement health and performance?
Performance asymmetry may not always indicate a deficit. How can you use it to drive performance and injury prevention decision-making?
Determining readiness to return to activity is multifactorial. Here are some actionable guidelines for leveraging asymmetry testing in your practice.
To make injury prediction a feasible endeavor, we need to study the athlete in their environment like it is a complex-adaptive system (because it is).
We all want to focus on the positive, but sometimes, putting too much faith in our ideas and beliefs leads us to miss the deficits that an athlete is presenting right in front of us.
Rehabilitation goals shouldn’t be limited to just treating symptoms. We need to prepare athletes physically and mentally for the sport-specific demands they will encounter after they return from injury.
How you can move beyond the “eye test” and Matt Jordan’s favourite rehab metrics for ACL recovery.
In 2017, a reported 60 million Americans actively participated in regular, run-focused activities. With the exception of a few social and migratory animals, this seems to be a uniquely human pastime. Why is that?
The simple act of walking may seem trivial, but it is one of the most valuable steps we can take for our health (pun intended).
At the end of the day, a practitioner is trying to figure out how a person is doing (progressing, regressing or sometimes just maintaining) and if there are trainable deficits that can be addressed with exercise and treatment.
