    1. Joints are classified as either providing stability or mobility, with ankles, hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders usually being mobile and knees, lumbar spine, and scapulae usually being stable. 2. A lack of mobility in a joint meant to be mobile, such as the hip, can cause compensation from normally stable joints, like the lumbar spine, forcing it to move more and potentially leading to injuries. 3. Maintaining proper mobility and stability in all joints through exercise is important for injury prevention and improving overall movement patterns.

    MOBILITY

    At the end of the lesson, the


    students should be able to:
    1. Establish correct movement patterns
    2. Adopt proper mobility exercises to daily
    activities
    3. Value the importance of mobility and stability
    of joints in improving movements
    Mobility
    Involved mainly in:

    •Joints
    • specific function is generally classified
    either providing stability or mobility.
    Joints that are usually mobile:

    • Ankle (sagittal plane)


    • Hip (different planes)
    • Thoracic spine (t-spine)
    • Shoulder
    Joints that are usually stable
    • Knee
    • Lumbar spine
    • Scapulae
    Lack of mobility
    • inability of a joint to move well through its specific range of motion (ROM)

    Tendency is:
    When an intended mobile joint is immobile, the stable joint is
    forced to compensate by becoming less stable.

    *Familiarizing the involved parts of the body before moving on to the examples of lack
    of mobility

    Examples of Lack of Mobility
    and its consequence/s
    a. If the hip lacks mobility because of weak or poorly activated
    iliopsoas muscles, the lumbar spine that is intended to be stable
    will move instead, compensates the inaction of the hip.
    b. When the lumbar spine is compensated due to the hip’s lack of or
    poor mobility, the hip’s function (e.g., flexion, extension,
    abduction, adduction) further deteriorates. Result: LOW BACK
    PAIN
    c. Poor knee ankle will also result in knee pain because the loading
    upon landing is transmitted to the knee above.
    Application and Analysis
    Consider the following in doing your daily activities including sports
    involvement
    Joint Function
    Ankle Mobility (Sagittal)
    Knee Stability
    Hip Mobility
    Lumbar spine Stability
    Thoracic spine Mobility
    Scapula Stability
    Shoulder mobility

    *Joints have specific functions: Stability or mobility. Inadequate control of


    one’s joint triggers a decrease in ROM to effect contrast.
    * On the other hand, a joint that makes mobility forces a stable joint to
    compensate by becoming less stable. Thus, stability affects mobility.
