Everything you need to run the screen and fix the pattern, starting tomorrow.

1

Prone Hip Extension Test

See whether the glutes actually drive hip extension, or if the hamstrings and low back take over. Includes 3 key cues and red flags to watch for.

2

Single-Leg Stance Test

Check lateral hip and pelvic control. If they can't control a static single-leg stance, they're not going to control a loaded lunge or step-up.

3

3-Exercise Activation Sequence

  • Seated Banded Abductions (25 reps)
  • Lock Clam (25 reps/side)
  • Banded Glute Bridge (12 reps)
