She had a martial arts background, so we use this as an example. This led to discussion of how the relative movement in the upper extremity changes with position.7:04 This Q&A is with Thanasis who wanted to review the mechanics of cutting in regard to the pelvic outlet and connective tissue behaviors. This also gave us an opportunity to understand the necessity of our intentions with exercise selection and the importance of secondary consequences.19:31 This Q&A is with Jordan who had a question about some change of direction activity the involves manipulation of the foot position as we move into and out of a cut. Recognition of the actual foot position for change of direction will matter as will recognition of foot position for the activity in question in regard to transfer of one activity to another. There are also secondary consequences that influence systemic movement that may be undesirable.

    This weeks topics: Programming Training/SpecializationConventional vs. Sumo DeadliftTrendelenburg gait cause-solutionStructural differences/pronated feetSUBSCRIBE for even more helpful content:YT: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPTIG: https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/FB: https://www.facebook.com/BillHartmanPTWEB: https://billhartmanpt.com/0:00 This Q&A is part 2 with Greg discussing programming and organization of training. We get into the high specialized athletes like baseball pitchers, training elements throughout the year, and recapturing your KPI’s on a predictable schedule. Really good discussion.4:57 This Q&A is with Shan who is a powerlifter with a Narrow ISA archetype. His question pertains as to why he would choose a conventional vs. Sumo stance in his deadlift. Here’s some reasoning as to why one may be better than the other.11:11 Today’s Q&A is with Anat who had a question regarding Trendelenburg gait causes and solutions. We discuss what you’ll find and what you’ll need to achieve to resolve it.23:57 This Q&A is with Matt who asked a question regarding the influence of idiosyncratic structural differences on how someone may compensate. When we understand what the options are, we can see how individual differences may produce the magnitude of movement limitation or allow movement and adaptation to occur. The “pronated foot” takes on greater meaning when we deepen our understanding.

    The Bill Hartman Podcast for The 16% - Season 17 - Number 10

    The Bill Hartman Podcast for The 16%Season 17 Number 10This weeks topics: Cuing abdominal muscles for breathingSleeping position fixConnective tissue yield and timingProgramming and superimposing capabilitiesDon’t forget to check out the latest RECONsider Podcast episode.Hope you had a great week!0:00 This Q&A is with Alex who has a situation where a physical constraint may be interfering with effective breathing. In many cases, the solution to the problem will be determined in real time as you coach them through an activity. This video offers coaching cues and recommendations for techniques as you work through the process.10:23 This Q&A is with Anat who initially had a question about head and neck positioning during activity, but then shifted discussion toward sleeping positions. While there may be some accommodation for comfort required at times, as with movement, sleep position is about recapturing options during the day.24:43 This Q&A is with Alex who asked a foundational question regarding connective tissue yielding behaviors. This allowed us to dig into some specific representations about how this behavior influences the elements of timing and energy transfer during activities. Some great stuff here.38:49 This Q&A is Part 1 of a discussion of programming and organization of training with Greg. Looking at how you can superimpose movement with other qualities such as force production without interfering or minimizing the decline of capabilities is one of the great challenges of how you organize training. This was a long discussion that covers a lot of ground.SUBSCRIBE for even more helpful content:YT: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPTIG: https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/FB: https://www.facebook.com/BillHartmanPTWEB: https://billhartmanpt.com/

    The Bill Hartman Podcast for The 16% - Season 17 - Number 9

    This weeks topics: Oscillatory techniques to reduce muscle activityHip, knee, and foot/knee pain500 pounds deadlift/weak hamstrings part 1500 pounds deadlift/weak hamstrings part 20:00 This Q&A is with Bori, Cameron, and Anat as we discuss application of oscillatory methods to reduce or optimize muscle tension. We can apply them to patients/clients and even to ourselves. You’ll often see athletes use them pre-event to help them feel prepared for their event.07:24 This Q&A is with Bori who is working with a client who has some knee issues and some very telling signs that will lead treatment. This gives us an opportunity to review some of the relationships between the foot and rest of the lower extremity.13:32 This Q&A is part 1 of a conversation with Matt who is recognizing the limited perspective of a structural-reductionist model in regard to determining ideal positions for specific activity. Branding a muscle as weak requires a much deeper explanation than making an assumption that there is just something limiting at the actual muscle level. Position always matters.22:15 This Q&A is Part 2 with Matt as we continue talking about the influence of pelvis, joint, and muscle position as an influence on what is perceived as isolated muscle weakness. Positional testing provides us with perspective on why some may believe that the problem lies within an individual muscle rather than understanding the systemic influence. This also provides an understanding of the coordinative strategy to execute a lift like a heavy deadlift.

    The Bill Hartman Podcast for The 16% - Season 17 - Number 8

    This weeks topics:0:00 This Q&A is with Alex who had a question regarding bony adaptations and using techniques to reduce compressed representation resulting in the late propulsive external rotation. This allowed us to talk through the reasoning as to why a mobilization may or may not be effective as the starting conditions will matter.07:52 This Q&A is with Thenasis who asked me about how I manage information and learning. I do it the hard way with notecards, paper, and fireboxes. I also use apps to a degree as so much information is electronic.15:01 This Q&A is with Alex who is work on improving a patient’s foot shape and had some questions about the results. This led us to discussing some strategies that may be helpful or hindering especially when it comes to using heel lifts at the wrong time when the leg appears to be short.29:12 This Q&A is with Zach who is making great progress on an athlete after an ACL surgery. She’s having some intermittent knee symptoms with specific activities. Cues and specific exercises are helpful, but we breakdown remaining compensations that may resolve the ongoing symptoms.SUBSCRIBE for even more helpful content:YT: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPTIG: https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/FB: https://www.facebook.com/BillHartmanPTWEB: https://billhartmanpt.com/

    The Bill Hartman Podcast for The 16% - Season 17 - Number 7

    This weeks topics: Baseball pitcher with elbow painExperience mattersHip range of motion/Dirty table testsSwinging a baseball bat/back pain0:00 This Q&A is with Zach who is working with a baseball player with lateral elbow pain (aka tennis elbow). Zach is doing great work to resolve symptoms but his patient is still lacking full traditional elbow extension and feels weakness in his hand. We walk through how to address each element including how to visualize the position at the elbow. BTW, got an update from Zach and he nailed it with treatment and got back the elbow range of motion!13:03 This Q&A is with Cameron that ended up with an explanation of why you must be patient and recognize that you’re playing a long game in regard to your meaningful work. 

Consistency with your efforts over a long time to acquire knowledge and then applying it to produce quality experience is how you will improve.16:49 This Q&A is with Alexsander (hope I’m spelling that correctly!) who had a great foundational question about hip measures. This allowed us to review how we can identify what our measures actually represent in regard to what is producing the movement we observe.24:27 This Q&A is with Zach who is working with a baseball player showing some back pain when he swings a bat. The pain is difficult to reproduce otherwise, but Zach has already done a great job in cleaning up the symptoms. This discussion looks at why the pain may have been present in the first place.SUBSCRIBE for even more helpful content:YT: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPTIG: https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/FB: https://www.facebook.com/BillHartmanPT

    The Bill Hartman Podcast for The 16% - Season 17 - Number 6

    This weeks topics: 0:00 Early vs. Late Hip External Rotation - Q&A is with Thenasis who had a question about hip external rotation measures. We lose and gain movement depending on context and pelvis orientation. This is a great review to help you understand hip ER.4:33 Clawed Toes - Q&A is with Manuel who is identifying a representation of a late propulsive foot behavior while the foot is on the ground. The result is often seen in the clawing of the toes. Here’s a description of how that happens.9:53 Turning a Right Oblique Orientation - Q&A is with Cameron who is working through the processs of promoting the left turn toward starting conditions for a Wide ISA archetype. Positioning, process, and foot cues will all provide an influence for a favorable outcome.22:32 Understanding Foot Contacts - Q&A is part 2 with Cameron with an assist from Dale. We discuss how we use foot contacts to direct changes in sacral orientation and shift the center of gravity depending on archetype. Why do we spend less time talking about the 5th metatarsal head vs the 1st?SUBSCRIBE for even more helpful content:YT: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPTIG: https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/FB: https://www.facebook.com/BillHartmanPTWEB: https://billhartmanpt.com/

    The Bill Hartman Podcast for The 16% - Season 17 - Number 5

    This weeks topics: Posterior shoulder impingement - This Q&A is with Ian who had a question regarding posterior shoulder pain/impingement (aka internal impingement). We discuss how this evolves relative to each of the Wide or Narrow ISA archetypes.Elbow pain and exercise selection - This Q&A is with Thanasis who is working with a client with some broad pain complaints but some very focal symptoms in her elbows. This gave us an opportunity to break down the low oblique and prone activities as well as discuss common compensations we’ll see as we attempt to put clients in optimal positions for exercise.Shin splints - 2 presentations - This Q&A is with Jordan who is working with two patients both with diagnoses of shin splint but with differing symptoms. Not all shin splints are created equal. Different symptoms are often associated with differing behaviors. The better our understanding of contributing factors, the better our solutions.Patellar tendinitis and joint orientation - This Q&A is with Stewart who is working with an athlete with patellar tendon pain. Extremity and muscle orientation will play a strong role in producing the resultant symptoms. Stewart gives us a great representation of what to look for with these anterior knee diagnoses.
