How a High School Basketball Superstar Wrecked His Future Forever…And Why His Fate Could Be Yours Too—If You Don’t Find and Fix Your Fatal Flaws

Corrective Strategies and Movement Screening

Brett Jones

Senior RKC : 2-DVD set

Playing Time: 2 hours & 57 minutes

What are we all REAL GOOD at—and what do elite athletes EXCEL at? Compensating for a flaw, deficiency, or imbalance in the body. Option A is not available—our body jumps to Plan B. But plan B comes at a hidden price. In fact, the better you are at switching to Plan B the more surely you will be injured. Guaranteed, your durability will be a joke.

The athlete in the photos above is not faking. This is a high school junior several years ago who was leading his team, killing it on the court. He was a countywide superstar. Everybody was afraid of this kid on the court. But this is what he looked like off the court. That was his toe touch. That was his squat.

What do you think was going on with this kid? When he moved the way you know he must have moved on the court? Micro trauma every place. Guess what? He got injured his senior year. Missed his window. Didn’t get a scholarship. Non-contact injury. Wouldn’t do the work. Didn’t fix it.

Yes, micro trauma. A series of minor stresses to the body resulting in limited area tissue damage or tears each of which alone does not cause discernable damage. However, their accumulation over time can lead to a significant injury. Inefficient movements cause compensations, which move a joint in an unnatural manner. The body will always sacrifice quality for quantity. Movement patterns will follow the path of least resistance.

When you stack these compensations on top of each other, screening for movement becomes essential.

How do we assess movement? Well, we break it down into these seven basic movement and stability programs. We squat. We step. We lunge. We reach. We leg raise. We push-up. And we look at rotary stability.

What the movement screen does is put people into categories and rank them. You can’t actually fix anything until you rank it and identify it.

When we find out you can’t toe touch and that also matches up with the fact that you can’t deep squat and you also have a bad active straight leg raise, we can place you in a category that allows us to then evaluate what’s going on and create a corrective strategy to address that.

Well, if the World Champion Indianapolis Colts insisted their players be screened before being cleared to play, we figured our Level 11 RKCs deserved training in this same cutting-edge process.
