Anti/Core Exercise Movement Patterns

Strength anti-movements

The following link is a faculty driven project put together by the students in the Fall of 2016 HLAC Principles of strength class.  We looked at core, low back, and hip exercises that emphasize stabilization of the Spine, Pelvis, and Hip joints.  Also included are movements that strengthen the musculature of these joints when they are put through their full range of motion.  These exercises are correctives for isometric stabilization and isotonic strength without compensation from accessory musculature.  The students were able to recognize when compensation would occur due to multiple factors such as altered motor control, breathing dysfunction, weakness, or dominance in a particular region that was being tested.  Simply click on the link and challenge yourself to the stabilization and strengthening exercises in the powerpoint.
