FMS Corrective Strategies: Rotation Patterns

$ 49.00

Description

Rotation patterns are often targeted when we find asymmetries in mobility and stability. These problems in turning, twisting and weight shifting are manifestations of a core imbalance and are identified in multiple screens and assessments used by Functional Movement Systems. 
 
To correct these imbalances and asymmetries in the dissociation and (re)association of the lower body and upper body, we start at the fundamental level because rotation is the developmental foundation of many other movements. Gray Cook uses variations of rolling, chops and lifts, rotation exercises with Indian clubs and kettlebells in this progression that is aimed at dumping unnecessary tension and holding alignment on one’s axis.
 
Gray provides guidance on differentiating problems in tissue from those in muscle tone as well as focusing on the specific importance of proper breathing to rotation patterns. If you work with clients who participate in swinging or throwing sports, this course provides the functional exercise background you need to bring awareness to their dysfunctions while correcting them at the proper postural level.
 
Course length: 56 minutes

This course is part of a series that explores the FMS approach to identifying and correcting movement dysfunctions. Other patterns explored include Hip Hinge, Upper Body, Balance, and Squat. Each details the differences between the FMS assessments and screens - SFMA, FMS, and Symmio, and follows with exercises based on a hierarchy of developmental postures: Supported, Suspended, Stacked, and Standing. The exercises are also structured by the ABCs principle: Awareness, Breathing, and Control, and use Reactive Neuromuscular Training (RNT) to engage motor learning, or as Gray says, “motor remembering”
 
The addition of Symmio includes an overview of the movement self-screen as well as a discussion of the impact of non-musculoskeletal lifestyle factors on movement health and wellness.
 
Functional exercise should never cause dysfunction and this FMS Corrective Strategies series, along with the insight into the system you integrate into your work, whether it be  SFMA, FMS, Symmio, or all of our options, provides you with the basics of a test-correct-retest standard operating procedure. Go beyond the body parts and see the importance of patterns for identifying and correcting movement health issues at the edge of ability in a rich sensory environment.
