Evaluation of Your Athlete for Training and Conditioning

Adopt a holistic, multi-segment approach to athletic evaluation, linking hip and ankle mobility to knee pathology, then use simple, camera-based screens of squats, lunges, push-ups, and jumps to guide training.

Assess a runner’s patterns and kinetic chain integrity using a bosu balance test and PVC pipe variations to identify hip, knee, and ankle weaknesses for conditioning.

Analyze gait videos frame by frame to assess foot rotation, knee torque, arm swing, and posture, identifying potential knee pathology and injury risk from body mechanics.

Analyze an athlete performing deep squats and lunges to identify asymmetries, Achilles rigidity, and glute weakness. Target bilateral mobility and strength to improve performance.

Assess the athlete’s push-up form from head and lateral views to confirm a stable, mobile pattern with symmetrical scapula and a strong, aligned core.

Analyzes the athlete's jump and landing, examining quad, glute, calf activation, ankle motion, and Achilles and calf range of motion to address right-side weakness and knee safety.

Evaluate a runner’s posture, midline alignment, and lower-body symmetry to identify tight hip flexors and underuse of the hips, guiding longer stride and hip engagement to propel forward.

Identify athlete weaknesses by reviewing videos, recognize recurring patterns such as weakness in the glutes or abs, and Achilles tightness, and practice to improve by repeating video analysis.
