◉ Deviations from neutral
Answer: Occur in flexion (forward) and extension (backwards)
◉ Safest spinal positioning
Answer: Midline stabilization in a neutral position
◉ More risky spinal positioning
Answer: Non-neutral spine in a static position
◉ Most risky spinal positioning
Answer: Loss of neutral spine during movement
◉ Most common injury from loss of midline stabilization
Answer: Lumbar spine flexes under load
◉ Core to Extremity Movement
, Answer: A sequence of muscular contraction that begins with the
large force producing, low velocity muscles of the core and hips and
ends with the small force producing, high velocity muscles of the
extremities.
◉ Core to extremity movement begins with
Answer: Establishing midline stabilization for effective force
transfer; creating a base
◉ Core to extremity movement maximizes performance because:
Answer: It tasks the largest musculature to generate force first,
allowing the greatest force to develop
◉ Violating core to extremity movement
Answer: Puts smaller muscle groups, tendons and ligaments at a
higher likelihood of resulting in injury such as tearing
◉ Dynamic core o extremity faults
Answer: Occur when there is incorrect timing of the arms moving
before the hips and legs have extended
◉ Balance About the Frontal Plane
