Tight Ankles=Bad Squatting (Video)

6/1/2013

1 Comment

 
This week's strength and conditioning post is from a physical therapist and strength coach named Kelly Starrett.  For those of you unfamiliar with Kelly, he is the owner of mobilitywod.com and a private practice in San Francisco.  Known for working with athletes and crossfit, his primary philosophy revolves around the idea that movement plays a primary role in most injuries and can be corrected.  
As you can see from this video Kelly is offering a corrective exercise to help rectify his athlete's poor ankle mobility.  Often our athletes are not taught correct form when they begin squatting and it leads to very poor motor control patterns and compensatory positions preceding injury.  Finding the link to what is contributing to poor form when we first meet our clients is vital.  Make sure to look at the entire body structure when analyzing the squat as each individual presents with a different set of compensatory strategies.
