INSIGHT

Athlete Assessment

  • Assess athletes by analyzing gait cycle mechanics, ventilation mechanics, and the central nervous system.
  • Prioritize areas of deficiency based on the athlete's current state, goals, and timelines.
INSIGHT

Stability vs. Strength

  • Stability is often misunderstood, especially its difference from strength.
  • Muscles act as sensory organs, providing feedback to the brain, not just contractile tissues.

  • Instability training with tools like Bosu balls can be counterproductive if basic stability is lacking.
  • Load is important for mechanotransduction, converting external stimuli into electrical impulses.
