    Big Toe Mobiity
    ——
    The windlass effect describes a biomechanical concept in which dorsiflexion of the big toe causes the plantar fascia to be put on tension. This tension then causes the arch to lift, the calcaneus to invert and the subtalar joint to move into supination.

    Why is this important? Supination and pronation are integral movements to normal foot function and serve different purposes. Supination locks the many joints of the rear foot and mid-foot and occurs when we first contact the ground at heel strike and again as we push off of the ground into our next step. In bet...

    Meniscus Anatomy
    ———
    The knee joint contains a lateral and medial meniscus, which act as shock absorbers and force transducers. As can be seen in this great video from @chicagosportsdoc, the menisci possess a slight concavity, which improves the fit between the femur and tibia and enhances overall joint stability.

    Meniscus injuries can be traumatic or degenerative in nature and are more common in athletes that participate in sports that involve twisting on a planted foot (soccer, basketball, volleyball, etc).

  • Bone Strength

    🔎A study in the Bone journal demonstrated that one year of resistance training (3x/week) had a significant impact on bone mineral density (BMD) and overall bone strength, which could help reduce the incidence of osteoporotic fractures.

    🧠Some of you may be saying, 'this doesn't apply to me as I am still young’. It is well understood that peak bone density is reached fairly early in life (20s-30s) and then hormonal changes (women) and increasing age (males and females) lead to decreases in BMD. Even if you are young, now is the time to maximize bone density through proper training and nutritional habits as these may help reduce your risk of fractures later in life.

    🏋🏼‍♂️If you haven't already, strongly consider adding resistance training to your exercise program as the benefits to the musculoskeletal system are numerous. The program does not need to be complicated either.

    ✅The video showcases the resistance exercises that were used in the study. Find the appropriate load for yourself and give them a try.

    2️⃣Deadlift
    3️⃣Bent-Over Row
    4️⃣Calf Raise
    5️⃣Shoulder Press
