Biomechanical Screening
25th August 2017 - 20:31 ">
Many TCUK athletes (and coaches!) sit down behind computers, commute long hours and are glued to our phones! All of these things affect our posture.
As biomechanics coaches we believe in the body being one kinetic chain where for example; an elevated right shoulder could lead to a calf strain on the left lower leg.
As triathletes we need to be moving as freely as we can and have as few muscle imbalances as possible. Not easy in a world full with technology but vital if you want your body to perform to its very best.
Our biomechanic screening covers all the major joints, starting with the pelvis and spine before looking at your shoulders, ankles and knees. We look for the obvious dysfunctions and then provide you with corrective exercises to help reduce spasm, improve the neuromuscular link and help you to manage dysfunction and reduce the chance of injury.
A biomechanics screen takes around 30 minutes and a further 30 minutes to explain and for you to perform the corrective exercises.
A word of warning.... you will come away with exercises that are EASY to perform, PAIN FREE and EFFECTIVE. We will ask you to repeat them 4 times each day until you return to full function. These exercises will take up 3 minutes of your time. For some, adhering to something so painfree and convenient can be difficult. After all we are trained to suffer right!!
