A premise of the CCP on the physiological retraction.
In pre-adolescent (12 years) until the end of adolescence (18-21 years) children, particularly young athletes, suffer physiologically a retraction of the kinetic chain way back in principal have the following picture postural : retraction of the Hamstring muscles (hamstring), rear mount basin with stiffness of the hinge low back and hypermobility of the cervical-dorsal hand clinically evident in an observation / evaluation of the athlete in forward flexion in the standing position viewed from the side.
The main motivation for this type of retraction is Auxologico: The development of muscle mass does not proceed in parallel with the skeletal bones in practice, in the period, growing faster than the muscle-tendon system and connective tissue-fascial system appears to be virtually a rope too short a period for rapidly expanding. Only at the end of adolescence, the balance between the two devices will be balanced (often congenital pathological exceptions).
Principles important postural (Mézières):
• The lordosis and kyphosis is not responsible for the opposite: the suppression of a kyphosis results in an increase in lordosis wherever it is found;
• The lordosis is responsible for scoliosis : the spinal muscles, extensors and rotators of the spine are also side flexors, their shortening and lengthening produces scoliosis may correct the vertebral rotation and lateral bending;
• The lordosis is mobile: it moves as a "ring a tent "on the spine, as that will be corrected by the segment that deals with shifts;
• The internal rotation of the roots of the limbs predominate: When the balance of tensions agonist-antagonist is broken by excessive tone of a muscle group, this should always be to the benefit of the external rotators (psoas + semitendinosus / semimembranosus)
• The lock of the chest in inspiration coexists with lordosis, since the joint work of the pillars and the posterior psoas are lordosizzante;
• There is a chain stretching back if there is no alignment OSS (Occiput / shoulder blades / Holy): lordosis is because the mobile should lock the "escape routes";
• The popliteal fossa is the lordosis III: over the alignment OSS must ensure the smoothing of the popliteal fossa;
Self-treatment global posture second method Mezieres and major laws
loss of extensibility posterior chain is the source of all our strains, the act of restoration of this lost stretch obeys some laws: it must cover the whole system mioscheletrico (globally) and should be practiced postures held for long periods to which are added, when possible, all the techniques and soothing sedative such as acupressure, massage, contraction / relaxation, stretch & spray etc..
is a technique that combines both a global static work (or moderately dynamic) eccentric hypertonic groups, a static work (or moderately dynamic) concentric groups hypotonic.
postures, always delordosizzanti, are charged with a special breathing method is intended to detendere and relax the diaphragm (breathing out long, slow and sustained), and an effort of external rotation of the roots of the limbs.
is recommended as a preparation, a job sector sull'allungamento of the following muscles that appear to be clusters / key in postural imbalances:
• Aperture
• Ileum • Psoas
hamstring
• Quad lumborum
• Piriform
Conclusions
I found this summary useful for all coaches, trainers or coaches who work with children and in good faith ignore these rules unwittingly encouraging the onset of postural origin of diseases such as pubic, tibial dell'apofisi Osteochondrosis (Osgood-Schlatter), sacro-ileiti, piriformis syndrome, disk disease, retractions Achilles, patellar iperpressioni, conflict, sub-acromial shoulder, ilio-tibial tract syndromes etc. etc. In
training sessions, would be ideal to spend some time in the gym to work autoposture maybe, if possible, with the occasional supervision of a specialist in the field. The benefits can be translated into practice in order of importance:
• improved posture physiological spoiled young athletes;
• significant reduction in the risk of injury;
• Improvement of the first performance of adolescents.
