Corrective Exercises – Is Corrective Exercise Real? – Why Should We Do Corrective Exercise?
In this lecture, Brett Jones discusses the art of corrective exercises, beginning on the ground floor of “follow the instructions,” through concepts such as removing the negative, performance versus durability, correcting and conditioning and much more.
“If you have a dysfunctional squat, don’t exercise the squat. It’s really that simple. Apply this concept to all seven screens, and you’ll quickly find that you’ll develop a list of exercises that if somebody’s weakest link, for example, is an active straight leg raise, you’re not going to challenge the hip hinge while you’re trying to correct it. You will be addressing the weakest link in the screen and removing those dysfunctional or asymmetrical patterns.” ~Brett Jones

Brett’s lecture is an excellent introduction to how to implement the FMS once you know how to perform the test. Rather than a list of exercises to do or not, Brett outlines guiding principles that teach you how to fish rather than providing one meal. For those that don’t know the FMS yet I suggest listening to Gray Cook’s lectures first, and using his Movement book. Therefore this lecture is most appropriate for trainers that have decent working knowledge of FMS testing and basic corrective movements. The key concepts are explained clearly, and with good examples of common mistakes, and examples of what to do in order to better assess and progress clients.

Very useful steps in how to structure Correctives once you’ve obtained information from the FMS, therefore quiet essential in any reprogramming. Clear and well written. There is also a brilliant idea at the end which also gives a great insight into the movement philosophy and its power.
