Hey Biomechanics Rockstars! 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

Let's dive into the fascinating world of movement impairments with a focus on Valgus Knee, a not-so-welcome involuntary inward movement of the knee joint. 🤔💡

🔍 What Causes Valgus Knee?
This misalignment is often linked to instability in the ankle and/or hip, coupled with overactivity in certain muscle groups. Scientifically, the Vastus Lateralis, Biceps Femoris, and Peroneals are the troublemakers, disrupting the delicate dance of patellofemoral tracking and potentially stressing the ACL. [Reference: Journal of Biomechanics, Vol. 42, Issue 9, 2009]

💊 Prescription for Improvement:
1. Soft Tissue Therapy & Stretching: Target those overactive muscles – Peroneals, Biceps Femoris, Vastus Lateralis, Adductor Complex, and Psoas – with a mix of soft tissue therapy and strategic stretching. [Reference: Clinical Biomechanics, Vol. 29, Issue 3, 2014]

2. Activation Exercises: Wake up those underactive heroes – Gluteus Medias, Posterior Tibialis, Gastrocnemius, and Intrinsic Foot Muscles – through specific activation exercises to ensure proper firing sequences. [Reference: Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, Vol. 51, Issue 4, 2019]

3. Integration into Movement Patterns: The magic lies in integrating these underactive muscles into larger movement patterns – squats, lunges, step-ups, and even running. Challenge stability, coordination, and balance with single-leg and Change of Direction exercises for that extra dose of improvement. [Reference: Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, Vol. 33, Issue 7, 2019]
