Old rehab systems versus New rehab systems

Old system

1. Measure impairments
   1. Return of isolated strength
   2. return of joint mobility
   3. return of muscle flexibility
   4. return of balance
2. Consider performance parameters
   1. job-specific movements
   2. sport-specific movements

New system

1. Initial focus --> normalise impairments​
2. Subsequent focus --> normalise movement pattern quality
3. Third focus --> address and improve performance quantities.

Why the new system?
We know that the return of impaired measures of isolated strength, joint mobility, muscle flexibility and balance can be normal or can occur while movement patterns can still represent dysfunction. 

Likewise, it is possible for some performance parameters to fall within normal limits even when acceptable movement patterns are not present.

The new system honours a simple understanding of a complex batch of science around movement learning and strength and conditioning that relates to injury. Get in the game, to stay in the game, win the game.
