Core stability |
Resisting motion at lumbar spine through activation of the abs |
|
|
Core strength |
Allows for motion to occur in lumbar spine through the abs (typically isolated contractions) |
|
|
Lumbar spine movement |
Flexion Extension Rotation (13%) --- want to limit this Sidebending --- limited to 27 degrees from L1-S1 |
|
|
Lumbar spine joint function |
Built for stability, not mobility
Therefore, they resist motion, don't produce it |
|
|
Low back rehab |
Focus on hip rotation and hip extension
Stabilization training
Increase thoracic spine movements in rotation and extension |
|
|
Important for abdominal muscle performance |
Stabilize spine
Maintain optimal alignment and movement relationships between pelvis and spine
Prevent excessive stress and compensatory motions of the pelvis during extremity movements
|
|
|
Sx of chronic LBP |
