Thank you for this!!! I’m at the beginning modules of getting my NASM CPT .... you are helping me so much to understand the material. I’m almost 50, never went to college and barely studied in high school. I have a question... where are the other videos in this series? I see them set to private in your playlist? Do you have them somewhere else where I can view them? Thank you so much
You're very welcome! All our videos are available to members at BrookbushInstitute.com. You'll have access to all 500+ videos alongside articles, online courses (that will count towards your NASM recertification), and the Human Movement Certification.
Really great info on a sit & stand ....as a secondary for some elder or very overweight clients!! Well informed, excellent advice!
Glad I could help.

Hi there, thank you for your video. Would you say that the girl in the video hyperextends their knees? (7:37). Is this something that needs correction? My legs are like hers and I also have overpronation in my feet. I don't know if I am supposed to do something about it. Thank you for your time.

Any idea why one uses an overhead squat assessment? The only activity I have ever used this for was to maybe put something on a top shelf of a closet, but I rarely do this.
Ok so feet are narrow, hip width and parallel, I’ve seen some video do this shoulder with apart and feet slightly out just like a real squat. Are the feet narrow like this to illuminate areas of dysfunction?
So is this mainly an ankle mobility test?
hi Brent, i notice Leanne in her alignment you do not mention her overlocking knees at het base position?
There is no research to suggest this is a reliable sign, or that addressing it would be an effective strategy for improving motion or patient symptoms.
Dr. B2
Thanks Brent for your response
Thank you so much for the series to date! Question: You mentioned some regressions to assessment for older adults but do you have some additional tips for assessing and implementing corrective exercise for seniors? This is a population I want to work with and I am hoping to be working full-time soon at a retirement facility. Would love to implement an assessment program with corrective exercises. Would appreciate any insights you could provide. Thank you!
Hey Leslie,
It's all about regression. You need to experiment with way to get techniques accomplished in a position that your population is comfortable with. For example, using tennis balls on a table is probably better for release techniques so that seniors do not have to get up and down off the floor. You may also need to be well stocked with lighter bands, and not be afraid to do corrective techniques with body-weight alone. Also I would say that a full corrective routine using an integrated warm-up template like I use may be the entire workout.... and that's okay.
B2
Hi Brent can you please do a video on how to rehab a subacromial impingment please . Thank you
Hey Dylan,
So, there is an important distinction to be made between diagnosis and assessment for determining an appropriate intervention. In essence, the only thing a diagnosis gives you is a set of common symptoms and potentially a search term for finding research that may refine your approach. Your intervention is going to be based on correcting the movement impairment you note through various assessments like - postural assessment, goniometry, PAIVM's, muscle length tests, manual muscle testing, etc.
So will we post a video on subacromial impingement syndrome? - Unlikely, although we may post case studies of various individuals who have complaints indicative of subacromial impingement syndrome as part of our online learning platform at BrentBrookbush.com
Dr. B2
Thank you Brent Brookbush . Do you have a clinics in australia :(
I don't, but I hope in the future we will have an associates or HMS professional network tor refer people to.
Dr. B2
Hello bret.About a year ago I watched one of your videos that had to do with figuring out how to prioritize muscle imbalances . I know lots of times clients will have several imbalances and in that video you showed us how to focus on the biggest issues and address as we go I believe from bottom up. What was that video. I am trying to find it but not having any luck. Thanks
Jorge Perez Hey Jorge Perez,
You can find the video as part of this lesson - brentbrookbush.com/sign-clusters-compensation-patterns-overhead-squat-assessment/ - however, you must be a member of BrentBrookbush.com
We changed our user interface about 8 months ago to a membership model. We have kept membership cheap (just 12.99/month or 139.00/year), but in order to keep growing we had to start charging for the immense amount of content we have produced and continue to produce.
I hope you understand,
Thanks again for the question,
Dr. B2
Great Video Brent. Can you apply the Overhead Squat Assessment in multiple sclerosis patients ?
Kind regards
Hey George Koutsis,
That is a great question. I would think that applying the same observations to a sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transfer and a separate overhead reach assessment would be more practical for most MS patients, and it is questionable whether all of the techniques listed in the solution tables would be appropriate in addressing true neural symptoms. But, there is little doubt that much of the dysfunction seen in MS could be attributed to the same postural dysfunction seen in all individuals. I know one of my team, Stefanie Dicarrado, DPT, has been applying some of this methodology in MS patients (besides working with the Brookbush Institute she also works in a clinic with a fairly large MS population). I would recommend reaching out to her: sdicarrado@gmail.com
I will discuss it with her, but maybe we could add some online education, videos and case studies to the Brookbush Institute for a deeper look at your question.
Sincerely,
Dr. B2
why are people getting so personal on this video. personal training is hands on and hes helping us
Thank you!

If they have tight hamstrings and a forward lean where would I go from there ? THank you
Work on ankle mobility.
Hi Brent,
You mentioned that heels lifting off the ground destroys this assessment. What should one do if that happens? Is putting a board underneath the heels helpful?
Great Question Virginia,
Since we want to see how the rest of the kinetic chain compensates during closed chain mechanics (with feet completely on the floor), we need to keep the heels down too. My best suggestion is to suggest to the individual to "keep their heels down", if that doesn't work, cue them again, but have them sit back into a chair and get up. Using a heel rise is part of the modifications I discuss in later videos regarding "sign clusters". It is a great way to differentiate between lower leg dysfunction (LLD) and lumbo pelvic hip complex dysfunction (LPHCD) because it "takes the ankle out of the assessment", but since it takes the ankle out of the assessment this is not appropriate initially.

Brent, i really have gotten alot from your videos and appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to help people for free! Im 25 years old and ive been dealing with fascial pain for 2-3 years now. Ive seen countless doctors and physical therapist with little to no help. i think i tore my rhomboid a few years back and i have developed some nasty scar tissue through the area. Over time, the tension and pain has spread through out the upper body and neck. The only thing that really has helped is using some fascial release tools such as the super nova from rogue fitness. Anyway, i was wondering if there is any literature that you could recommend me for postural restoration and fascial release. Thanks again for all of the help.
respectfully,
jake kosene.
Jake Kosene That is a huge portion of the content at BrentBrookbush.com (12.99/month) although it is geared toward the professional. The videos you have seen, along with all of our content is continuing education and academic support.
Assuming that you have interest in the content and you are considering becoming a professional I think you would gain a ton of insight. You could start with our articles on "Intro to Postural Dysfunction" - bit.ly/1Ivhkmh , "Upper Body Dysfunction" - bit.ly/1PeAIqb and "Upper Body Dysfunction Corrective Exercise and Sample Routine" - bit.ly/1NjfsOU
Hope that helps Jake,

B2, got a question for you which is not entirely off-topic for this video.
If I do an full oly squat (of full oh squat) - or get my right knee into full flexion some other way - it pops and cracks severely and feels unstable under load. I believe the cracking is actually coming from the tibia, not the patella. It feels like the tibia is literally grinding hard! There is no pain associated with this with a body weight movement, but it sounds like stepping on a dry branch in the forest.
This only happens in the last 10-15 degrees of flexion. Once the knee is less bent, it feels completely stable and there no noises, no discomfort, etc. Any ideas on what this could be?
Hey IvanAndreevich,
Usually these popping and cracking sounds are related to tracking issues of the patella. Now... it gets a little complicated, but new research is showing that these tracking issues are not a patella out of place, but the alignment of the femur and tibia moving away from the patella during eccentric loading (the knee's cave-in and leave the patella behind). My guess is you have more issues than cracking and popping (for example, your feet turn-out, feet flatten, knees bow in, etc....). As I go through this video series hopefully you will be able to determine your compensation pattern, a corrective exercise strategy to improve your movement pattern, and potentially the end of your knee's cracking and popping.
Note: there are several other things that could be wrong with your knee, or any knee for that matter. As I have mentioned in previous posts... I can not diagnose, treat, train, or even guess at what is truly happening online. I hope that some of my suggestions help, but if they don't... please find a PT or orthopedic physician that can do a physical examination to determine the issue.
Sincerely,
B2
Brent Brookbush I used to frequently get crepitus at the knee cap with deep knee flexion, but that's no longer the case after quad flexibility improvements. This cracking and popping is definitely coming from the tibiofemoral joint. What are the odds that I could have osteoarthritis in my late 20's?
I´d been taught that the feet should be slightly outward and shoulder width. I dont know what to do now, any comment.
+Emilio A Hey Emilio,
This is an assessment... if an individual had ideal mobility and neuromuscular control they could squat with their second toe pointing forward in line with their ASIS.
I think the position you have been taught is based more on comfort than ideal position based on bony architecture.
Sincerely,
Dr. B2
Feet should be wider bro.. To allow enough room for functional movement of external rotation to start the squat and internal rotation to finish if feet are super close kinda hard to tell imo good series tho
Hey Sam,
Try to keep in mind this is an assessment. We should not have to externally rotate and bow the knees out in order to squat. What powerlifters do to achieve performance is not necessarily healthful or optimal for the general public, just as dunking a basketball is not the healthiest activity for the shoulder complex.
If you want to get the most out of the assessment we need to compare it to optimal - i.e. the ability to perform the movement as described in the video.
Sincerely,
B2
Brent Brookbush It has nothing to do with powerlifters or olympic lifters "achieving performance." The most mechanically sound way to squat is to externally rotate the hips (or should I say femurs). The (sad) fact that the general public (in modern western societies) can't do this does not mean it isn't optimal. It means the general public can't do it properly, and if a client falls in that category, it needs to be addressed, because they aren't able to correctly perform a basic human movement pattern. This isn't a case of us being "form nazis," but rather a recognition of the fact that squatting without externally rotation is not mechanically sound. I suppose I could imagine a case where I'd use this assessment to look at ankle mobility, and the ability to keep the torso upright and shoulders externall rotated/seated back where they belong, but this doesn't asses what it's name implies--squatting ability. Plenty of "clients" can do this assessment exactly as demonstrated, but I would never let them actually squat like this, whether they were under a load or not.
If said client has no interest in becoming athletic in any way, I guess they can squat with their knees forward, so I'd say go ahead and turn your feet out like a duck, round your shoulders, let your heels come off the ground, let the knee(s) cave in, and ignore the arch in your foot. Do whatever you need to do in order to sit down onto something. While we're at it, go ahead and install handrails next to the toilet. And in front of your couch, too. But if they're coming to you for an assessment, chances are they're actually interested in becoming more athletic, or at least resolve some strenth/mobility issues that are keeping them from enjoying life.
wait.....are you the guy from the NASM eTeach course??
No Joe,
I believe that is Eric Beard... if not possibly Rick Richey... I know there is a video floating around of Dr. Mike Clark (creator of the OPT model) teaching the overhead squat somewhere.
B2
You look and sound just like him! Thanks for the.videos, they helped a lot!
Joe Hempel Can you send me the link?
B2
Brent Brookbush Brent@BrookbushInstitute.com
Love your explanations, but I think your foot setup is incorrect. You don’t want internal rotation of the tibia to start and the ankle naturally externally rotated about 5-10 degrees. So by aligning the 2nd ray you now have internal rotation of 15 degrees or so from neutral.
Question; are you a giant?
That is one tiny female.
She is pretty small, and I am not a small guy. I believe she is 5'2" and I am 6'3"... a big difference, and we joke about it all the time ;-)
What an ASIS
+InYourHeadChangedMan Anterior Superior Iliac Spine
+InYourHeadChangedMan +Handle is correct.
Your anterior superior iliac spine is the two bony notches you can feel lateral to your lower abdominal area. An important landmark to know and feel comfortable with identifying.

Well hello Leanne. You lovely lady
Suddenly hungry for muffin
He's so creepy, I can't even finish watching. She looks so uncomfortable.
She's a close friend, and I have never been called creepy... maybe you're just fairly poor at judging the emotions and behavior of others?
Don't troll!
Dr. B2
@@BrookbushInstitute ya wow, that Kamie has some serious issues. Your client is clearly a willing participant, she's smiling the entire time and isn't exhibiting any signs of discomfort, shyness, fear, etc. I hate when people project their own traumas and insecurities onto others and try to turn them into villains and perpetrators. Yes you're touching her a lot but I'm sure you already got permission to do so before you started filming the video. "Creepy"... *smh*
this is the biggest creep ive ever seen. Touching way too much and over explaining. This poor girl
hes obviously being professional. Doctors sometimes to look someone over the same way for pain.
Did you really think that trolling this channel would result in anything other than opening yourself to criticism? What did you hope to accomplish with this statement?
definitely sounds like trolling. Thanks for the great video Brent
Uneducated guys grope, PTs palpate.
Major creep
What't the point of this long video? She's a pretty girl, but the rest of what's happening is just fluff. Your point could have been delivered in half a minute.
Mmmm if she is not your girlfriend why touching her to much mmmm personal trainer don’t do that only doctors helloooo am a personal trainer and TRX trainer never touch my client 🤔
I am a doctor Freddy... the palpation is done for instructional purposes and may not be necessary in other settings. I am trying to help people understand where landmarks are, and in some cases helping may patients understand what they are feeling. Based on your response, I am going to suggest you don't touch anyone, ever. Assuming that touch is always done with the intent of affection or provocation suggests you have issues with physical contact. Have a good day.
