Observing Client posture is kinda like finding a room full of clues in a murder mystery novel.
Every postural compensation
Every joint out of alignment
Every tight or weak muscle
Every past injury or point of pain
These are all clues to help you SEE 👀 what the REAL problem or cause could be.
It is easy to think that if your client has low back pain, then the problem must be in the back.
Or if they have knee pain, the injury is in the knee, that might not be the case
Observation of your client will give you clues. these clues build up to give you a picture of the cause of the pain or problem that your client is experiencing.
The squat analysis protocol shows you how to observe your client from all angles, and WHAT to look for… just like a human x-ray machine
You can use the grid to “tick” each postural compensation you can see whilst your client is doing an overhead squat
Then using this data you can use the formula to understand exactly which muscles are tight and weak in the body.
This gives structure and purpose to your planning, meaning that planning a client session is no-longer left to guesswork.
