What did I read[1, 2]
This article is one of the best articles I’ve read recently #instant classic. It is laced with great references that support the Hockey Triad concept – common movement dysfunctions /motorcontrol errors can leadto a range of injuries. It is a must read for any professional involved in hockey and soccer given the high rates of groin, hip and low back problems in these sports.
Thoughts
- Chronic over-use injuries can be sourced to a few common movement dysfunctions.
- 1 motor control error ripples throughout the Kinetic Chain leading to other motor control errors. The trick is to find the driver “COMPLETELY”
- There are many potential sources of anterior hip pain but they are likely linked.
- Structural changes in the elbow, shoulder and hip progress based on exposure and micro-control errors.
