Stimulation Techniques 04:43
3 Major Techniques of Stimulation include Vestibular, Proprioception, and Oculomotor. Vestibular techniques create a perturbation of the inner ear which is a major sensory organ for balance. Driving the head in different directions using the neck, trunk or hips during various postures or movements stimulate the vestibular system and improve our overall stabilization (Note: individuals with […]
4Q Shoulder Excitation 01:24
To dynamically prep the Shoulder complex, Excitation drills will prepare the rotator cuff and parascapular muscles to react effectively during dynamic movement. […]
4Q Hip Excitation 01:23
Warding Patterns can also be used as Excitation drills for the Hip Complex. The rapid activation of the hip musculature becomes a useful preparation drill prior to any dynamic movement. […]
4Q Foot/Ankle Excitation 01:45
Excitation for the foot/ankle complex uses a combination of the Corkscrew and Lock technique with Warding Patterns. Warding Patterns are useful for excitation drills as they allow for a rapid turning on and off against an external force and can introduce multidirectional force into the body. […]
4Q Core Excitation 02:56
An Excitation technique example for the core is Percussive Breathing. Again, considering many of the deep core stabilizers of the spine are secondary breathing muscles, we can use breathwork to activate these muscles. Percussive Breathing involves rapid, short bursts of inhalation or exhalation to quickly turn on and off the deep core stabilizers of the […]
4Q Shoulder SMUR 02:31
Small Motor Unit Recruitment for the Shoulders looks to activate the rotator cuff and 16 parascapular muscles in both closed-chain and open-chain positions. Many closed-chain shoulder exercises will fit in the ULT and UMT quadrants while LLT and LMT are often used for open-chain shoulder exercises. […]
4Q Hip SMUR 03:58
One example of using Small Motor Unit Recruitment for the Hips is to improve Gait. One technique we might use is the Runner’s Hinge, which helps to stabilize the hips and pelvis in all 3 planes of motion as it decouples during a gait pattern. View the following example to explore how to use a […]
4Q Foot/Ankle SMUR 04:39
The Foot/Ankle is the first element of the body to receive ground reaction force. Therefore SMUR for the Foot/Ankle Complex focuses on activating the intrinsic foot stabilizers that create dynamic arches through the foot. One technique that may be used is Corkscrew and Lock. The goal is to use the ground as a way to help splay […]
4Q Core SMUR 04:23
To activate Small Motor Units, task-specific exercises are ideal. When it comes to SMUR for the Core, various breathing techniques can activate the intrinsic core stabilizers considering they are accessory breathing muscles. Forced Exhalation is forcefully breathing all of your air out and primarily activates the Transverse Abdominis, Intercostals, Obliques and Paraspinals. Forced Inhalation is taking […]
Fluid Dynamics Techniques 01:28
3 major techniques can be used to improve fluid dynamics: Compression such as foam rolling, body tempering, or wraps (Voodoo Flossing) Cardiovascular activity such as walking or biking Vibration or Pulsing such as using the various vibrating guns, rollers or device such as PowerPlate. View the following topics for tutorials on specific techniques. […]
