Dr. Micah Garcia, a researcher from Thomas More University and lead author on key studies about hip strength and biomechanics, brings fascinating insights to the discussion. He delves into the surprising findings that hip strength doesn't correlate with knee biomechanics during single-leg tasks. The conversation addresses common misconceptions in physical therapy, evaluates current assessment methodologies, and promotes a holistic understanding of movement dynamics. With humor and critical analysis, Garcia challenges prevalent assumptions in the field, making for a lively and informative session.
