Few days ago I talked about John Izzo’s Lunge to Improved Performance DVD.

Today I wanted to share with you an exercise that I learned from watching the DVD.

Maybe today, I will take a break from the writing and let the video do the talking.

What to Do with a Client with Knee Pain?

2

Filed Under (Chronic Conditions, Hip Injury, Knee Injury, Knee Pain) by Rick Kaselj on 14-07-2010

Here is another interview from Orange County.

In Orange County, I was at a fitness conference.

The funny thing is you can hear all the plane overhead from the local airport.

In the interview, I am chatting with Rochelle Gravance.

Rochelle is big in to knee pain.

It is so great to run into another person that focuses on injuries.

I know one of the big injuries I get are knee injuries.  I know a fair bit about knee pain and injuries but I am always looking for new tips and tricks.  I love hearing what others that specialize in injuries have to say and what is new in the research.  Last week, I reviewed a research article on exercise and patellofemoral pain syndrome, check it out here.

In the video she talks about a few key tips to remember when training a client with knee pain.

These random thoughts things have been fun.

I don’t think anyone reads them but I enjoy sharing and writing.

Here you go with today’s random thoughts.

Hip Replacement

I got an email from a Kinesiologist in Regina, Saskatchewan who specializes in training clients with hip and knee replacement.

She had taken the Core Stability of the Hip webinar and is using the concepts and exercises with her hip and knee replacement clients.

If you are looking at increasing your understanding, confidence and getting some exercises for clients with hip and knee replacements, I would recommend Jody Kennett.

Jody Kennett, is a fitness professional that has a specialization working with clients with hip and knee replacements.

She will be presenting her The Joint Replacement Client: Pre & Post-op Exercise Guidelines on November 6 in New Westminster, BC.

I have taken the course twice and I highly recommend the it.

Core Stability of the Hip 230x300 Core Stability of the Hip – Hip Injury ExercisesCore Stability of the Hip

Description:

Many times fitness professionals focus only on the back when it comes to core stability.  What is equally important is to look at the core stability of the hip.  Poor activation, low endurance and inadequate strength in the core of the hip leads to greater risk of injury to the lower back, hip and knee.  In this webinar, fitness professionals will learn a progressive exercise program that they can use with their personal trainer and group fitness clients in order to improve the core stability in their hip in order to prevent and recovery from back, hip and knee injuries.

What you will learn during the webinar:

- Important cues and techniques for maximum exercise benefits
- Progressive exercises to improve core stability of the hip for any level of fitness
- The exercise to DO and NOT do when training a client recovering from poor core stability of the hip
- Essential components of an exercise program when training a client for maximal gains in core stability of the hip
- Recommended and research backed exercises for core stability of the hip
- Key structures involved in core stability of the hip

Hip Resurfacing Video

0

Filed Under (Exercise Rehabilitation, Hip Injury) by Rick Kaselj on 09-01-2010

I came across this video on hip resurfacing.

Often times when I am teaching courses like Exercise Rehabilitation of the Hip, I am asked surgery questions.

Since surgery is not my thing, it is best to find resources that people can learn about the surgeries that their client’s maybe having or have had.

Here is one that I found on YouTube that I thought would be of interest to people as I am seeing more people with hip resurfacing.

Let me know if you like the video and if you would like me to post more surgery videos that I come across.
