Lesson 5 Outline:
0:00 – 20:00 – Pathokinematics, what are they and how do they impact each link in the chain
20:00 – 30:00 – Importance of single limb testing vs. bilateral testing – what is the difference?
30:00 – 40:00 – Limb symmetry index vs. limb quality index – what is better predictor of sports biomechanical factors that impact injury and performance?

0:00 – 20:00 – What are the 5 biggest things that mass data has taught me about human movement
20:00 – 25:00 – Importance of reliable and valid technology – just because it looks cool, does not mean it works.
25:00 – 35:00 – Limb symmetry index, limb quality index and initial peak
acceleration – what are they and why they matter more than you know
35:00 – 40:00 – Kinesiophobia – it is really not that complicated if you address it…Sport Locus of Control.
40:00 – 50:00 – Hip stability is the unspoken risk factor for ACL injury
50:00 – 60:00 – Speed matters, why controlling speed of pathological motions may be more important than magnitude
