If you have any questions on how to construct your answer please check our Sample Exam Answers page or contact our Educational Support Team.Tom is a 36 year-old businessman that likes to compete in outdoor, high-intensity fitness events every few months. Between the events, he performs workouts with a mix of strength and cardiovascular training 4-5 days per week. Tom recently went to a physical therapist because he was experiencing discomfort in both knees when he ran or performed lunges and squats. The physical therapist discovered weakness in his hips’ abductors and external rotators. The physical therapist discharged Tom and sent him to you to strengthen those muscle groups.
First, make a list of all the muscles that perform hip abduction and external rotation. Second, explain why you think it’s common for people to have weakness with hip abduction and external rotation.
Explain the benefit of placing a resistance band around Tom’s lower thighs while he performs a squat. Which hip muscles does the band activate that aren’t normally activated with a regular, bandless squat? Why is it important to have Tom perform the band squat slowly at first? Keep in mind which type of motor control you’re trying to enhance.
Explain how you will use the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) with Tom. What type of information will it tell you? How do you specifically know if he’s making a positive change, based on the information the scale provides?
Explain how you’ll address the three components of motivation to improve your sessions with Tom. Provide a hypothetical scenario where each component becomes a factor, as well as the steps you’ll take to address each one.
Fill out the movement analysis form for a one-arm dumbbell row. What are the common compensations you might see, and how will you cue the client to correct each one?
Fill out the movement analysis form for a reverse lunge. What are the common compensations you might see, and how will you cue the client to correct each one?
Explain the relationship between proximal stability and distal mobility. If you determine that Tom has poor mobility of his right hamstring, which activation exercises would you use to increase his mobility without resorting to hamstring stretches?
Explain the compensations that can be seen during the modified Thomas Test. Then, choose one of those compensations and explain how you will correct it.
