Listen "Overactive and Underactive Muscles Part 2: Excessive Forward Lean and Low Back Arch"
Episode Synopsis
You asked for it – you got it! This is part two of three episodes where the topic of over- and underactive muscles will be discussed. This episode will cover two common movement compensations in the overhead squat assessment:
Excessive Forward Lean
Low Back Arch (Anterior Pelvic Tilt)
Listen for a review of short muscles that lead to this compensation and lengthened muscles that allow the compensations to occur. These episodes are anatomy heavy and may help the listener better understand functional anatomy. Functional anatomy helps listeners better understand how muscles can contribute to movement compensation and dysfunction. The outcomes may provide a better implementation of exercise preparation AND maybe, just maybe, help you if you're studying for an exam… ;-)
