Flat feet contributes to many foot and ankle injuries. Unfortunately, many people are unaware that the intrinsic foot muscles play a major role in the arch of the foot. Souza (2023) found that:

1) Intrinsic foot muscles are essential for medial longitudinal arch stabilization.

2) Foot strengthening program should be applied for 8 weeks to improve balance.

3) Short Foot Exercise is the most common exercise for intrinsic foot muscle.

4) Load Progression should be from sitting to bipedal standing position.

If you are have flat feet, find a rehab specialist and begin strengthening your feet today!

ACL tears are common in ground-based sports. However, the best recovery protocol after a tear is still unknown. Hayley (2023) looked to indentify modifiable preoperative predictors for return to physical activity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Hayley et al.found a very-low level evidence suggests that increasing quadriceps strength, managing patient expectations of their treatment outcomes, improving motivation to resume preinjury activity levels and considering the use of a patellar tendon graft will support return to physical activity after ACL reconstruction.

Everyone has heard of the importance of core strength. Unfortunately, crunches and sit-ups will only get you so far and for some people is not safe!

New undergrad intern Joe demontrates a resisted wood chop exercise that you can do at home with a resistance band.

Do you or someone you love have knee osteoarthritis? If so, it is important to know what kind of treatments are most effective. Nafees (2023) researchered the effectiveness of dynamic soft tissue mobilization (DSTM) in comparison with the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretching in the management of hamstring tightness, reduction of pain intensity and improvement of physical functionality in knee osteoarthritis.

The research group concluded DSTM and PNF stretching, both treatments are equally beneficial in knee osteoarthritis for hamstring flexibility, pain reduction and functional mobility in terms of reported outcomes.

Knee flexion motion is necessary for walking, squatting, going upstairs and other daily tasks.

Unfortunately, knee pain from an injury or surgery can limit knee range of motion.

Doctoral student Peter Dorricott demonstrates a simple knee flexion exercise to increase your range of motion safely.

Glute and hip strength provides power and aesthetics, what a combination!

The single leg hip thrust is a safe, low impact exercise to build hip strength. Coach Sam shares how to perform this movement safely.

06/18/2023

Absorbing the impact of landing generates a lot of stress on the back, hips, knees, and ankles. If you do not know how to properly absorb the impact of landing, it can increase injury risk and/or impair rehabilitation.

Doctoral student Jose, SPT shares how to ease into jumping with this shock absorption exercise.

06/16/2023

The lower trapezius muscle is weak for many people. Unfortunately, weakness of this muscle can result in poor shoulder blade motion and possibly shoulder pain.

Dr. Donell, DPT shares how to activate this muscle with a simple wall exercise.

06/14/2023

Is there a muscular phenotype in athletes?

Knaus (2023) wanted to see if athletes use their skeletal muscles to demonstrate performance. Muscle force generating capacity is correlated with volume, meaning that variations in sizes of different muscles may be indicative of how athletes meet different demands in their sports. Medical imaging enables in vivo quantification of muscle volumes, however muscle volume distribution has not been compared across athletes of different sports.

This study revealed that athletes with the most similar phenotypes do not always play the same sport such that patterns of muscular heterogeneity across a group of athletes reflects factors beyond their specific sports.

Looking for a twist on the traditional squat exercise.

The curtsy squat is a great way to build thigh and hip strength.

Coach Sam demonstrates how to perform this safely and properly.

06/10/2023

Unlike the other toes, the big toe is most important for walking, running, balance, as well as many other activities. Unfortunately, stretching this toe can be painful and difficult.

Dr. Donell, DPT shares a method to improve big toe mobility and range of motion.

06/08/2023

A lot of us have had an ankle sprain or ankle pain in our life. These sprains can occur from weaknesses in the ankle and not having proper dynamic strength and mobility.

Peter, SPT shares a simple dynamic warm-up anyone can do safely before activity to reduce the risk of an ankle sprain or pain.

06/07/2023

Numerous structures in the low back can create back pain. The facet joint is an area which can cause local or diffuse pain in the lower back. Safely opening the facet joints of the spine often relieves pain in those with facet joint syndrome. Jose, SPT, shares how to safely open the facet joints to reduce back pain.

06/05/2023

Wrist flexion and extension can be limited if you are recovering from a wrist surgery or have a systemic disease like Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Adding distraction to the wrist with a band, then moving the wrist through flexion and extension.

Dr. John, DPT demonstrates how set this up at home.

06/03/2023

The bench low row is a great way to add resistance to a shoulder friendly movement.

Dr. John, DPT shares how to do this safely to build scapular and arm strength!

June COR Challenge!

A new month, a new challenge! Join the COR team and see how many jump ropes you can do before you fail.

06/01/2023

The more we learn about the sleep the more we are aware of it's influence on overall health and performance. A recent study analyzed the influence of sleep on performance of a professional football player. This study found providing a sleep routine and having proper sleep hygiene improved performance in an U18 professional football player.

05/30/2023

Are you lacking ankle mobility?

Dr. Donell, DPT has worked with hundreds of patients that lack range of motion after an ankle sprain, surgery, or are just stiff.

Try this ankle mobility exercise to increase your ankle dorsiflexion (bringing your toes up). Also, if you want to improve your squat depth, many people lack ankle dorsiflexion, so give it a try before squats!
