00:00:0500:00:09
So let's talk about joints of the
00:00:0500:00:09
shoulder girdle. We just learned all
00:00:0900:00:14
these joint actions and now I'm going to throw a little wrench in our joint
00:00:1400:00:20
actions chart, but joint actions of the shoulder girdle are acromioclavicular joint
00:00:2000:00:24
and our sternoclavicular joint. Now those sound
00:00:2400:00:28
like really huge, technical words, well remember when I was talking about
00:00:2800:00:32
anatomy being another language, those aren't huge technical words, they're
00:00:3200:00:38
actually referring to two specific bones or two specific points with on a bone.
00:00:3800:00:43
Your acromioclavicular joint everybody feel this right here, feel that shelf
00:00:4300:00:46
where you don't have any de ltoid, it's just above your deltoids, it
00:00:4600:00:49
doesn't matter how big your deltoids are you still don't have deltoids here.
00:00:4900:00:55
Right here you feel the shelf, well that's part of your scapula called your
00:00:5500:01:01
acromion process. What's this bone right here called? This is your
00:01:0100:01:07
clavicle, your collarbone it's your clavicle, so where your acromion
00:01:0700:01:17
process and your clavicle meet is called your acromioclavicular joint. That's it,
00:01:1700:01:22
it's not so bad right. It's like when you try to smash words together, you guys
00:01:2200:01:26
ever do that, like you see a cute couple and you like try to smash the girls name
00:01:2600:01:30
and the guys name together, you guys ever done that before? Right don't they do
00:01:3000:01:41
that with like stars, huh Kimye, awful, terrible. Anyway, but you get what
00:01:4100:01:44
I'm saying, that's all they've done here, taking acromion and
00:01:4400:01:48
clavicular and said, "You know what'd be really cute? If we call it acromioclavicular."
00:01:4800:01:53
That's the name of the joint, for short it's AC joint. Sternoclavicular, what do
00:01:5300:01:59
you think sterno is related to? Sternum and the clavicle feel right here,
00:01:5900:02:03
do a little of this, you can kind of feel there's a joint right here.
00:02:0300:02:07
The funny thing is is your entire shoulder girdle including your
00:02:0700:02:13
arm, the only bony attachment to your body is this joint right here. Craziness.
00:02:1300:02:18
That's crazy. Alright so that's your sternoclavicular
00:02:1800:02:27
joint. Now although those are the two joints of the shoulder girdle, we don't
00:02:2700:02:33
usually refer to motion of these joints. In further classes you will, those of you
00:02:3300:02:38
guys going back for your ATC, your DPT, master's in kinesiology, you'll start
00:02:3800:02:43
looking at these joints specifically, but for the most part those two joints help
00:02:4300:02:49
to dictate motion of the scapula, and we refer to motion of the scapula in
00:02:4900:02:53
analysis. Most of the muscles that would even impact these joints are actually
00:02:5300:02:57
attached to the scapula, does that make sense? So I don't want you guys to think
00:02:5700:03:02
that the scapula is a true joint, sometimes it's called the scapulothoracic joint.
00:03:0200:03:05
It's not actually a true joint, it's just more convenient to label
00:03:0500:03:09
it that way. Now unfortunately you guys just learned all of these joint actions
00:03:0900:03:12
right, flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, horizontal abduction, adduction
00:03:1200:03:16
external internal rotation, lateral flexion, you learned all that. The
00:03:1600:03:23
scapula doesn't use those, so we have to learn a separate set of joint actions.
00:03:2300:03:30
You ready? They're actually not that bad. Most of them occur in the frontal
00:03:3000:03:35
plane. Does anybody want to take a wild guess why most of them would occur in
00:03:3500:03:40
the frontal plane? Think about how I taught you guys the frontal plane.
00:03:4800:03:52
The muscle, the way the muscles run, that's part of it. I told you to think about the
00:03:5200:04:01
frontal plane as if you had what? A plane of glass in front of you. What's in
00:04:0100:04:07
front of the scapula? The ribs. Is there going to be a whole lot of sagittal
00:04:0700:04:11
plane motion of the scapula with ribs in front of it? Now that kind of makes sense.
00:04:1100:04:23
So our frontal plane joint actions, our scapular joint actions rather
00:04:3400:04:38
start with,
00:04:4700:04:53
that's my scapula everybody cool with that, all right start with this. If I go
00:04:5300:05:04
up it's called elevation, because elevators take you up, I know they can take
00:05:0400:05:08
you down too but stay with me. So elevation is up, that makes sense right
00:05:0800:05:12
that's not too bad. What do you think the opposite of elevation is? Depression.
00:05:1200:05:17
Don't most people who are depressed kind of have their shoulders down anyway.
00:05:1700:05:26
Okay so we got elevation, we have depression.
00:05:2900:05:35
The next joint actions you kind of have to think of the scapula as a pinwheel.
00:05:3500:05:43
You remember pinwheels? They were these little, there was like a stick,
00:05:4300:05:52
stick, right then they had these like leafy things, how's my art coming?
00:05:5200:05:58
Is it getting better? Better than the horizon, that kind of looks like a
00:05:5800:06:01
pinwheel and you'd like blow on it and it would spin, you know what I'm
00:06:0100:06:06
talking about? Or am I just totally dating myself at this point. Pinwheel?
00:06:0600:06:11
You have to kind of think of it as a pinwheel, it's a type of rotation
00:06:1100:06:16
although it's a rotation in the frontal plane this way, known as upward and
00:06:1600:06:22
downward rotation. Now to decide which way is up and which way is down we need a
00:06:2200:06:29
point of reference, you with me? That point of reference for the scapula is
00:06:2900:06:38
your shoulder socket, this part where my humerus hangs down my arm, this is known
00:06:3800:06:51
as your glenoid fossa. When your scapula spins so that we end up with
00:06:5700:07:03
glenoid fossa pointing upward, which rotation do you think that is? That's
00:07:0300:07:12
upward rotation, moving back down is going to be downward rotation. What do
00:07:1200:07:19
you think we see these joint actions, anybody want to take a guess? Frontal
00:07:1900:07:28
plane motions sure, give me an exercise? Shoulder press would be what? Upward
00:07:2800:07:34
rotation, when would I see downward rotation? Pull up, so if
00:07:3400:07:38
I'm doing a pull-up, my scapulae are starting to do this, which is that downward
00:07:3800:07:42
rotation. Has everybody got that visualized? Alright let's talk about the
00:07:4200:07:45
last ones.
00:07:5900:08:08
If I drew you from the top, this is your torso this is your head, sorry if any of
00:08:0800:08:15
you are offended by this picture I don't mean anything by it, not that big, it's my
00:08:1500:08:28
torso. So we got torso head and then we got scapula, it's a great picture isn't
00:08:2800:08:39
it. If I do this, all right if I do this thing, so in essence I go from here to
00:08:3900:08:47
here, can you see how that would be transverse plane movement? Parallel
00:08:4700:08:51
to your table since this is a top-down view. Now the question is what do we call
00:08:5100:09:00
that? This is protraction. How many of you have seen this guy in
00:09:0000:09:09
the gym, you can now refer to them as Captain Protraction. No? None of you
00:09:0900:09:15
are that nerdy? Any of you know what ILS stands for? This is a good one
00:09:1500:09:23
too, you don't know ILS? "Imaginary Lat Syndrome." You can throw
00:09:2300:09:29
that around amongst yourselves. So protraction, what action, what
00:09:2900:09:34
exercise might we see a little protraction in? Benchpress sure, we really
00:09:3400:09:40
need protraction to bench pres. In fact, anytime we do pushing motions, we need
00:09:4000:09:46
some protraction. What's the opposite of protraction? Retraction, so that's
00:09:4600:09:55
when my scapulae actually come closer together and almost touch in the middle.
00:09:5500:10:06
We got the green as protraction, when we got red we got retraction.
00:10:0600:10:10
Those six joint actions are your big joint actions for the scapula,
00:10:1000:10:17
those are the ones you will see most often, you guys cool with that? Now there
00:10:1700:10:22
is two other joint actions for the scapula that you don't run into as often
00:10:2200:10:27
in your textbooks. Those of you who continue with my courses you're going to
00:10:2700:10:33
have to be aware of, which is there is one set of sagittal plane motions for
00:10:3300:10:43
the scapula. It's called anterior and posterior tipping. So we won't refer to
00:10:4300:10:47
this too much for the rest of the day, you can put a little star by this,
00:10:4700:10:53
as bonus material, but if I drew a skeleton from the side,
00:11:0300:11:17
all this are my vertebrae, how you like my picture? Good. Scapula sits just
00:11:1700:11:23
like this. Now anterior and posterior tipping is sagittal plane motion, which
00:11:2300:11:31
means it's in which direction? Forward and back right? So what happens with the
00:11:3100:11:38
scapula is it can kind of crawl over the top of the rib cage, and it can tip
00:11:3800:11:45
anteriorly. Alright so when we refer to this tipping it's in reference to the
00:11:4500:11:51
top of the scapula, and then what would be the opposite of anterior tipping?
00:11:5100:12:01
Posterior tipping, exactly. So that would be posterior tipping. When we get into a
00:12:0100:12:05
little bit more complex postural dysfunction and correcting postural
00:12:0500:12:10
dysfunction and improving mechanics of the the upper body, this becomes
00:12:1000:12:18
important. Everybody's got those? Anybody want to take a guess when anterior and
00:12:1800:12:27
posterior tipping happens, like some exercises? Shrugs, yeah you don't really
00:12:2700:12:32
force it in a shrug. It's probably going to be more like an arm motion that
00:12:3200:12:37
anterior and posterior tipping gets included in, anybody want to guess?
00:12:3700:12:47
Swimming possibly, when during the swim? So if I do this, what's going to
00:12:4700:12:54
happen to my scapulae? They're going to posteriorly, do it, do it, you can feel your
00:12:5400:12:58
scapulae push into your rib cage, it flipped this way, so that's
00:12:5800:13:03
posterior tipping. Anterior tipping is, yeah if you did one of these
00:13:0300:13:11
things, everybody do this, because it looks hot, like Kimye,
