Revisiting Squat Form – Ryan Collins – 463

How is your Squat Form?
Ryan Collins presented on Squat form and followed it with a hands-on workshop at the Memorial Hermann Sports Medicine Update. I was a small part of the demonstration, but as I am always on the run with the show I did not get to catch all of the show.

I personally feel I lack the training to properly asses the full range of motion and I need practical hands on experience to really understand it. So to grow my understanding I am using this podcast selfishly to help my athletes.
Ryan will watch me squat and go through the whole assessment of my ankle, knee and hip movement so that we can have a better grasp on how and why to proceed with specific treatments.

What is Dance Medicine?
Dance Medicine is an emerging setting for Athletic Trainers. Some of the best people to work in Dance Medicine are dancers turned medical professionals. Daria and Carina fit the bill here.

About Daria:
Daria is an AT/PT who specializes in dance medicine. She is currently an assistant director, choreographer, and performer in the professional company Lady Grey’s Lovelies.
She works at Foundations Physical Therapy in northern New Jersey
About Carina:
Carina Nasrallah is a dancer who loves Sports Medicine. She is currently the Athletic Trainer for the Houston Ballet through Houston Methodist.
Things I learned:
1st position
Toe grabbing means a lack of balance
Hypermobilty causes difficulty in assessing
Toe- out is a normal position for dancers and some of the rehab should be done like that
They tend to be hamstring dominant and have trouble activating their glutes
In the secondary setting we are often responsible for the healthcare of our Drill / Dance teams as well.
I personally am not a dancer or into watching dance so completely understanding the sport and demands is outside of what is normal for me.
