Part 3 - Mobility, Stability & Motor Control for Rehabilitation, Exercise & Sports Performance: “The Lower Quarter” 
 
This is the third in a series of three short courses. The others are:
  • Part 1 - Mobility, Stability & Motor Control for Rehabilitation, Exercise & Sports Performance: “The Pillar” 
  • Part 2 - Mobility, Stability & Motor Control for Rehabilitation, Exercise & Sports Performance: “The Upper Quarter” 

Completion of the first is a pre-requisite to the subsequent courses.

Course description:

Background: Performance in rehabilitation, exercise and sports performance relies on the ability to respond, then adapt to external and internal stimuli, blending mobility, stability and motor control.

The first course in this series of short courses, “the pillar”, discussed how motor control could be the limiting factor in sports performance. This course continues the expression, absorption, storage and release of energy from the pillar, specifically involving the pelvic girdle, and lower limb.
 
Cueing, feedback and dosage of learning motor control is rarely taught in applied settings. This course deliberately explores these crucial coaching elements, and the mobility drills that enhance them, to produce changed behaviour and higher performance in the upper quarter. The exercise drills in the upper quarter course provide a practical window on 20th and 21st century rehabilitation, exercise and sports performance science as they relate to lower quarter performance behaviours such as rolling, crawling, climbing, chopping, lifting, running, jumping, landing and changing direction. These drills serve as guidelines for specifically improving positions, patterns and power. The ability to provide feedback and cueing on movement results and performance, and an ability to speak and write about mobility, stability and motor control will be assessed.
 
Learning Outcomes: By the end of the workshop, the student will be able to:
  • Coach, cue and educe mobility, stability and motor control of the lower quarter using various drills, exercises and techniques, with improving feedback, cueing and dosage.
  • State the modern definition and purpose of "the lower quarter" as it relates to rehabilitation, exercise and sports performance;
  • Describe the concise model of how mobility and motor control sum to produce human behaviours;
  • Classify barriers to performance into four main categories;
  • Recall the difference between static and dynamic motor control;
  • Describe the concept of overflow and irradiation as it applies to the lower quarter;
  • Demonstrate improved mobility and motor control of the upper quarter in multiple positions and patterns;
  • Apply functional breathing to enhance mobility and support motor control and force production, absorption and transmission of the lower quarter;
  • Determine effective positioning and patterning for lower quarter performance based on individual behaviour.
 
Goal/rationale for the course:
  • This course is designed to raise the conscious instructing and competency level for all students of rehabilitation, exercise and sports performance.
  • It is designed to increase acknowledgement of mobility, stability and motor control as a limiting factor in functional capacity.
  • The course aims to confront the errors in our exercise culture by improving understanding of the scientific systems and building blocks for movement skills.
  • It is intended that the student will have significantly enhanced ability to:
    • Assess competency of motor control;
    • Improve the lower quarter’s movement skills to support rehabilitation, exercise and sports performance.
 
Content:

​Lecture 1: Review of the essence and barriers of rehabilitation, exercise and sports performance behaviours

Practical 1: Reviewing lower quarter rolling as the fundamental upper quarter mobility, stability and motor control strategy. Included in this practical is the purpose, description, implications and pre-requisites for competent neuromuscular control of the lower quarter at ground level.

Lecture 2: Review of harnessing brain power to optimise rehabilitation, exercise and sports performance behaviours. The key scientific discussion revolves around layering neuromuscular output, feedback, cueing and dosage for movement skill learning, retention and transfer.

Practical 2: Interventions to improve lower quarter mobility, stability and motor control at ground level, quadruped, transitional positions and standing/walking and greater-than-bodyweight positions. Students will alternate between experiencing (being coached, cued and instructed) and coaching/instructing/cueing. Also included in this practical are linking movement preparation drills for team or individual sports involved in linear, lateral, multidirectional running.

Student responsibilities:
Participation: Learners are expected to be present and on time for the course. Learning is by onsite lectures, participation as both an instructor/clinician/coach practical and as patient/client/athlete - students are expected to be full partners in this process. Students who participate in all the exercises, instruct all the exercises, read and study the references diligently, discuss in the practical group, and write clearly their analyses and syntheses of exercise drills will do well in this course.
Assessment for the course will be by short answer, true/false and multiple choice answers, reflecting a concise and considered reflection of the short course.

Duration
6.5 hours plus a one hour break for lunch.
