Short leg talk:
11 strategies to get around a leg length discrepancy
 
 

From a Reader:

Dear Gait Guys, Dr. Shawn and Dr. Ivo,

 

I was referred to this post of yours on hip IR…

http://thegaitguys.tumblr.com/post/14262793786/gait-problem-the-solitary-externally-rotated

 

I am impressed by the level of details of your understanding of the gait and biomechanics. Although I am still trying to understand all of your points in this post, I would like to ask you:

-        What if my IR is limited due to a structural issue? The acetabular retroversion of the right hip in my case. I.e. if I am structurally unable to rotate the hip internally.What will happen? What would be a solution to the problem in that case?

 Many thanks,

Hey Gait Guys,

 
I understand that 1st MP Joint dorsiflexion, ankle rocker, and hip extension are 3 key factors for moving in the sagittal plane from your blog and podcasts so far. I really love how you guys drill in our heads to increase anterior strength to increase posterior length to further ankle rocker. I've seen the shuffle gait and was curious if you had a good hip extension exercise to really activate the posterior hip extensors and increase anterior length.
