Gluteus medius exercises for improving movement dysfunction, posture, knee pain, back pain, and performance. Great clamshell, leg raise & side-stepping variations.

Gluteus Medius Exercises (Activation)

The effects of movement dysfunction (reduced eccentric hip abduction strength, glute medius and maximus weakness, valgus knee, knee bow in, and greater trunk displacement), have on knee pain, knee injury, ACL (ligament) tears, patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), and pathology. The reliability, validity, and application of assessment and intervention on knee bow in and lower extremity dysfunction (feet flatten and feet turn out) on preventing hip, knee, and ankle pain. 

Does Movement Impairment Precede Knee Pain and Injury?

The relationship between the trunk and lower extremity on kinematics and muscle activity of the core, trunk, and lower body. The effects of BMI (body mass index), gluteus medius weakness, asymmetry, trunk motion (displacement), eccentric deceleration of the trunk muscles, frontal plane motion, and hip weakness on lower back pain (LBP), sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain, knee injury, knee ligament tears (ACL/MCL meniscus), back injury (lumbar pathology), lumbar spine pain, previous injury, performance, and proprioception. The reliability, validity, and application of assessment and intervention for lower extremity, lumbopelvic hip complex, and sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
