A client performs a overhead squat in lateral view. The kinetic chain check point is LPHC.
What are the overactive muscles where the compensation is excessive forward lean?
Soleus
Gastrocnemius
Hip flexor complex
Abdominal complex
A client performs a overhead squat in lateral view. The kinetic chain check point is LPHC.
What are the underactive muscles where the compensation is excessive forward lean?
Anterior tibialis
