The Step Down Task is an exercise we use to prepare athletes for the demands of running and landing from a jump. This exercise addresses:

- Stability of the lumbo-pelvic system, the knee and ankle/foot complex
- Force absorption
- Deceleration

Weight bearing and energy storing tendons such as the Patella tendon and Achilles tendon, clinically, I found has to be trained to absorb force even though the athlete has good strength in the muscles of these tendons.

At this point we have ticked the required criteria to execute this task such as the dynamic stability of the pelvis, knee and foot complex, ensuring we have good recruitment of the Gluteus Medius, VMO recruitment and optimal Quad strength for this phase and of cause recruitment of the FHL and Tibialis Posterior for optimal control of the ankle and foot complex during ground contact, to avoid things like over pronation of the foot.

Once that has all been covered in the early stages we can progress to the step down task.

In the Initial stages of doing this, there is a psychological component that needs to be addressed, whether it is the fear of dropping down onto the affected leg or lack of confidence in the leg, so be patient with the athlete and help guide them through this process. Our cues are to lift the back leg before we strike the ground with the front foot. Landing with a soft knee, and athletic posture and maintaining good form, avoiding over pronation of the foot, pelvic drop or knee collapse. My go to thought for the athlete is “big toe Glut Med”. Remember quality over quantity, correct one thing at a time and building until the athlete can execute the task confidently and autonomously.

Strengthening and conditioning of muscles and tendons is imperative to ensure good endurance, rate of force development, force absorption and most importantly injury prevention. (More time running less time on the sidelines). If those reasons aren’t good enough for you, let’s see if this will work…. It will make you run faster and longer.

Well done to our amazing patients! Completing the 21km and 56km races at the Two Oceans Marathon.
