Health Tip: Do you use a FOAM ROLLER? Do you know why you're using ...

The Diaphragm and Stability

The diaphragm plays a major role in establishing core (lower back, abdominal and pelvic) stabilization by contributing to an increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). Weakness or dysfunction of the diaphragm means REDUCED IAP which leads to poor core stability during movement. This forces your body to develop compensatory movement patterns in order to find stability elsewhere. Unfortunately, this will eventually result in injury to the lumbar spine, hips, or pelvis. Potential for foot, ankle, and knee injury too? You bet! So if you only breathe from your chest, and not your abdomen, you are an injury waiting to happen!

Non-Painful Dysfunction

I often encounter athletes, of all shapes and sizes, and all age ranges, who hit a performance plateau. They're "stuck." It may be a roadblock in competition, or a hurdle they experience during their training. They just can't seem to get past it. Classically, these are cases of Non-Painful Dysfunction. Just because you're not experiencing any pain, doesn't mean that your muscles are functioning properly! The same can be said for "strong" dysfunction.

The Rotator Cuff

The rotator cuff is one of the most commonly injured muscle groups in the body, specifically the Supraspinatus tendon. 

Do You Use A Foam Roller?

Health Tip: Do you use a FOAM ROLLER? Do you know why you're using it? Do you roll over every spot that feels "sore" and "tight?" If so, you may be causing more harm than good, by releasing tissue that is "tight" because it is trying to keep your joints stable. Not all "tight" tissue needs to be released.
