Lose posture after a few reps = Back extensions, Rev Hypers &
strength endurance Bridging
Upright Row Poor elbow position w/ Scapula strengthening. Soft tissue work
bar at sternum = done on the four trigger points of
restricted internal inspinatus & one trigger point on the
rotation of shoulder teres minor. Stretch internal rotators on
wall

the shoulder

Squat A dysfunction is present if the 4 point kneeling test, with knees & feet
athlete complains of flexion- together the athlete rocks back
related symptoms in the maintaining a long shallow lordosis.
lumbar spine; if they flex at Maintained lordosis until 120 degrees
the spine before 120° hips of hip flexion as the athlete moves
when squatting = restriction in backward. If they fail test, repeat test
posterior fibers of the IT band with knees apart. If they pass then
that insert into the glut max or stretch posterior fibers of the IT band.

lumbar control

Four Point Kneeling Stretch For Posterior Fibers Of The IT Band. Must
Have An Increased Lumbar Lordosis To Stretch Posterior Fibers.
Squat Asymmetry on all four test shift Check for asymmetry by placing

side or favor one side while
squatting. Hook leg of the side of
the PSIS that was high over the
other foot and sit back.
