Coaching The Squat, Deadlift & RDL

Why is it that patient’s struggle with certain rehab exercises?

You pick the right rehab exercise for your patient…

You tell them what it is, you might even demonstrate it...

But whatever you do they just can't seem to get it!

It might be a simple squat, deadlift or a hip hinge exercise like an RDL but however hard you try you struggle to get your patient to do the movement pattern well...

Your patients hips, arms and legs are all over the place, resembling something more like an octopus than a human being!

Even worse is when patient’s come back for their next appointment, and when you ask them to demonstrate the rehab they have been doing as part of their home exercise programme...



It is NOTHING like the exercise you first gave them!



Sound familiar?



Your ability to teach simple movements like a squat, deadlift or hip hinge is vital if you want to use these exercises, or any variation of these exercises in your patient's rehab programmes.



The right rehab exercise is great...



But it is not right if your patient can not perform it properly.
