2 Musculature Categories
Stabilization and Movement
-
Chronic Lower Back Pain
% of americans
85%
-
Drawing-in Manuever
-effects
- Pull in region just below navel
- -Increased stabilization
- -Increased EMG (Electromyogram Activity) Electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles
-
Core Stabilization System
-Muscle fiber type
Mostly slow twitch type I- so they need sustained contractions (6-20 seconds)
-
Intramuscular Coordination
Neuromuscular system ability to allow optimal levels of motor unit recruitment and synchronization within a muscle
-
Intermuscular Coordination
Neuromuscular system ability to allow all muscles to work together with proper activation and timing between them
-
Core Movement System
-muscles
-Primary function
- -rectus abdominus, erector spinae, external obliques, latissimus dorsi, adductors, hamstings and iliopsoas
- -Geared toward movement of lumbo-pelvic-hip complex
-
Core Stabilization System
-muscle
-primary function
- -Transverse abdominus, internal obliques, pelvic floor musculature, diaphragm, transversospinalis and mutifidus
- -Improve intramuscular coordination and motor recruitment within a muscle
-
Core Stabilization Training (Phase 1)
- -Little motion through spine and pelvis
- -Designed to improve functional capacity of stabilization system
Marching, Floor Bridge, Floor Prone Cobra, Prone iso-ab
-
Core Strength Training (Phase 2,3,4)
- -Dynamic eccentric and concentric movements of the spine through full range of motion.
- -Specificity, speed, and neural demand progressed as well as dynamic stabilization, concentric strength (force production), eccentric strength (force reduction), and neuromuscular efficiency of kinetic chain
- -Ball crunch, back extension, reverse crunch, cable rotations
-
Core Power Training (Phase 5)
- -Improve rate of force production of core musculature
- -Prepare you to dynamically stabilize and generate force at more functionally applicable speeds
- -Rotation chest pass, Medicine ball pull over, Front MB oblique throw, Woodchop throw
