Terminology Function – It is an integrated
multidimensional movement.Functional strength – It is the ability of the
neuromuscular system to reduce force, produce force, and dynamically stabilize the kinetic chain during functional movements, upon demand, in a smooth coordinated fashion.
Neuromuscular efficiency – It is the ability of CNS to allow agonists, antagonists, synergists, stabilizers, and neutralizers to work efficiently and interdependently during dynamic kinetic chain activities.

Functional Approach To Kinetic Chain Rehab
Traditionally, rehab has focused on isolated absolute strength gains utilizing single planes of motion.
However, all functional activities are tri-planar & require acceleration, deceleration & dynamic stabilization.
Movement might appear to be one-plane dominant, but the other planes need to be dynamically stabilized to allow for optimal neuromuscular efficiency.
The fact is that we train force reduction, force production and dynamic stabilization to occur efficiently during all kinetic chain activities.

Functional Approach To Kinetic Chain Rehab Cont…
A dynamic core-stabilization training program should be a key component of all comprehensive functional CKC rehabilitation programs.
A core stabilization program will improve dynamic postural control ensure appropriate muscular balance and joint arthrokinematics around the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex.
Allow for the expression of dynamic functional strength and improve neuromuscular efficiency throughout the entire kinetic chain.

WHAT IS THE CORE…?The “CORE” is defined as the lumbo-pelvic-
hip complex.It is the location of our COG & where all movt
begins.
Efficient core allows for –Maintenance of normal length-tension
relationshipsMaintenance of normal force couplesMaintenance of optimal arthrokinematicsOptimal efficiency in entire kinetic chain
during movement Acceleration, deceleration, dynamic stabilization
Proximal stability for movement of extremities
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 7
The Core Functions & operates as an
integrated unitEntire kinetic chain operates
synergistically to produce force, reduce force & dynamically stabilize against abnormal force
In an efficient state –The CORE enables each of the
structural components to operate optimally through:Distribution of weightAbsorption of forceTransfer of ground reaction forces

Neuromuscular efficiency – Ability of CNS to allow agonists, antagonists, synergists,
stabilizers & neutralizers to work efficiently & interdependently
Established by combination of postural alignment & stability strength
Optimizes body’s ability to generate & adapt to forces Dynamic stabilization is critical for optimal neuromuscular
efficiency Rehab generally focuses on isolated single plane strength gains in single
muscles Functional activities are multi-planar requiring acceleration & stabilization
Inefficiency – Results in body’s inability to respond to demands Can result in repetitive microtrauma, faulty biomechanics &
injury Compensatory actions result

Functional AnatomyGlobal (dynamic, phasic) muscles –
They are the large, torque-producing muscles.Link the pelvis to the thoracic cage and provide general
trunk stabilization as well as movement. Rectus abdominis, external oblique and the thoracic part of
lumbar iliocostalis Local (postural, tonic) muscles –
They attach directly to the lumbar vertebrae.Responsible for providing segmental stability and
directly controlling the lumbar segments during movement. Lumbar multifidus, psoas major, quadratus lumborum, the
lumbar parts of iliocostalis and longisimus, transversus abdominis, the diaphragm and the posterior fibers of internal Oblique

Hip Musculature cont… Hamstrings –
Concentrically flex the knee, extend the hip & rotate the tibia
Eccentrically decelerate knee extension, hip flexion & tibial rotation

Diaphragm and pelvic floorDiaphragm serves as the roof of the core. Stability is imparted to the lumbar spine by
contraction of the diaphragm and increasing intra-abdominal pressure.
Ventilatory challenges on the body may cause further diaphragm dysfunction and lead to more compressive loads on the lumbar spine.
Thus, diaphragmatic breathing techniques may be an important part of a core strengthening program.

CORE STABILIZATION TRAINING CONCEPTS
A specific core strengthening program can:IMPROVE dynamic postural controlEnsure appropriate muscular balance & joint
arthrokinematics in the lumbo-pelvic-hip complexAllow for expression of dynamic functional
performance throughout the entire kinetic chainIncrease neuromuscular efficiency throughout the
entire bodySpinal stabilization –
Must effectively utilize strength, power, neuromuscular control & endurance of the “prime movers” Weak core = decreased force production & efficiency
Protective mechanism for the spineFacilitates balanced muscular functioning of the entire kinetic
chainEnhances neuromuscular control to provide a more efficient
body positioning

Postural Considerations Core functions to maintain postural
alignment & dynamic postural equilibriumOptimal alignment = optimal functional
training and rehabilitationSegmental deficit results in predictable
dysfunctionSerial distortion patterns
Structural integrity of body is compromised due to malalignment
Abnormal forces are distributed above and below misaligned segment

Core Endurance Tests4 endurance tests advocated are –
Prone bridges Lateral bridgesTorso flexor Torso extensor
Other Test –Single-legged squat Test
The bridge tests are functional.They assess strength, muscle endurance and how is
the ability to control the trunk by the synchronous activation of many muscles.
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 26
Prone Bridge Endurance Test Primarily assesses the anterior and posterior
core muscles.It is performed by supporting the body's
weight between the forearms and toesThe pelvis in the neutral position and the
body straightFailure occurs when client loses neutral
pelvis and falls into a lordotic position with anterior rotation of the pelvis.
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 27
Lateral Bridge Endurance TestIt assesses the lateral core muscles. Legs are extended and the top foot placed in
front of the lower foot for support.Support themselves on one elbow & feet while
lifting hips off the floor to create a straight line over their body length.
The uninvolved arm is held across the chest with the hand placed on the opposite shoulder
Failure occurs when the patient loses the straight posture and the hip falls towards the table.
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 28
Torso Flexor Endurance Test It is time based test, how long the patient can
hold a position of seated torso flexion at 60°.The client sits at 60° with both hips & knees
at 90°, arms folded across chest with the hands placed on the opposite shoulder, & toes secured under toe straps or by examiner
Failure occurs when the athlete's torso falls below 60°.
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 29
Torso Extensors Endurance testThe test is performed in prone position of the
client.The client is at the edge with upper body out
of the table while securing pelvic & leg. Failure occurs when the upper body falls
from horizontal into a flexed position.

Single-legged Squat TestThe test is used as an indicator
of lumbo-pelvic-hip stability. It is functional test, requires
control the body over a Single weight-bearing lower limb
It is frequently used clinically to assess hip and trunk muscular coordination and/or control.

CORE STRENGTH TEST
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 36
Straight-Leg Lowering Test
Supine with knees in extensionPressure cuff placed under lumbar spine (L4-L5) &
raised to 40 mmHg with knees extended, hips to 90°Performs drawing in maneuver (belly button to
spine) & then flattens back maximally into the table & cuff
Gradually lower legs to table while maintaining flat back
The test is over when the pressure in the cuff decreases.
The hip angle is then measured with a goniometer to determine the angle.

Core Power Test
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 39
Backwards, overhead medicine ball jump & throw
The client is instructed to hold a 4-kg medicine ball between their legs as they squat down.
Instructed to jump as high as possible while simultaneously throwing the medicine ball backward over their head.
The distance is measured from a starting line to the point where the medicine ball stops.
This is an assessment of total body power production with an emphasis on the core.

Lower Limb Functional ProfilesIsokinetic testsBalance testsJump testsPower testsSports specific functional tests
Kinetic chain assessment must assess all areas of potential deficiency
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 41
Ultrasound imagingUltrasound imaging is also used as an
assessment technique.The real-time ultrasound imaging is a means
of assessing muscle size and activity. Most emphasis has been on the assessment
the transversus abdominis and multifidus muscles.
These measures have been shown to be valid.

Guidelines for Core StabilizationTraining Program
1. The program should be based on science.2. The program should be systematic,
Progressive & functional.3. The program should begin in the most
challenging environment the athlete can control.
4. The program should be performed in a proprioceptively enriched environment.

Abdominal “Draw In” Maneuver Aim –
To use the correct muscles in response to command “draw in” your abdominal without moving spine or pelvis & hold for 10 sec while breathing normally.
To activate Transversus abdominis + lumbar multifidus
Patient best position –The 4-point kneeling
position is best position to teach the action
05/02/2023 Ratankhuman M.P.T. (Ortho & Sports) 49
Procedure –Ask the patient to take a relaxed breath in & out &
then draw the abdomen up towards the spine without taking a breath.
The contraction must be performed in a slow and controlled manner.
At the same time contracts the pelvic floor and slightly anteriorly rotates the pelvis to activate the multifidi.
