Today we have something special for the podcast, I work at Champion Physical Therapy and Performance in Boston where we do a lot of continuing education, doctoral students' last rotations, and strength in-turns. This podcast is actually the audio from a recorded lecture I did for the entire staff on: an in-service related to assessing hips. Looking at the way people move for a hip function, hip mobility, what different tests can be done, who needs a different type of squat or exercise program, or what kind of mobility limitations somebody might have, and how you'd go about fixing those. A lot of people are interested in this kind of stuff so I wanted to share this audio version, but if you're really interested in seeing the test being broken down the full video version is on our online platform the Hero Lab and Shift HQ, which is essentially my monthly membership group where we have a massive amount of gymnastics medical providers, overall strength coaches and people in the community who are learning from me, doing lectures and also interacting with other likeminded people online.
