Section 4 : Programming Strategies
  • Chapter 11: Corrective Strategies for the Foot and Ankle

  • Chapter 12: Corrective Strategies for the Knee
    Because the knee is so commonly injured, it is essential to know the kinetic function of this area of the body. You will learn the basic anatomy of the knee, strategies for treating it with corrective exercises, and how to identify abnormal muscle activation patterns.

    The lumbo-pelvic-hip complex (LPHC) is a region of the body that has a massive influence on the structures above and below it.
