Symptoms arising from regions at a distance to the mid-thoracic area are often secondary to T4-T8 dysfunction. This article will discuss why (rationale), when (indications), what (skills), and how (practical integration) T4-8 dysfunction is addressed. **Why** Mid-thoracic dysfunction involves increased kyphosis of the thoracic spine from T4-T8, usually the result of prolonged sitting in a constrained posture. Thoracic, lumbopelvic and cervicocranial posture are interrelated as links in a chain (see Figure 1). When excessive slumping becomes habitual, according to Brügger, it is called the sternosymphyseal syndrome (Lewit 1996, 1999, Liebenson et al., 1998, Liebenson 1999). | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/members/images/585c.jpg) | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/public/images/space.gif) | | --- | --- | Mid-thoracic dysfunction affects the whole body's center of alignment and posture. Head and shoulder forward posture causes orofacial, neck and shoulder disorders; slumping affects breathing by leading to inhibition of the diaphragm and overactivation of the scalenes; and lumbar disc syndromes and nerve impingement have been shown to result from repetitive end-range flexion overload (Callaghan, McGill 2001). **When** Indications for treating the mid-thoracic region arise from postural analysis, passive joint mobility testing, and active joint mobility testing. The postural sign of increased thoracolumbar hypertonus is a classic sign of overactivity of the superficial "global" muscles and indicates poor "deep" muscle function (Janda 1996, Richardson 1999, Jull 2000, Hodges 2002). | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/members/images/585d.jpg) | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/public/images/space.gif) | | --- | --- | Palpation of passive joint mobility and quality of end-feel is best performed in the seated position, as shown by Brügger (Brügger 2000). | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/members/images/585e.jpg) | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/public/images/space.gif) | | --- | --- | The dynamic mobility screen of choice is the standing arm elevation test (Liebenson 2001). | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/members/images/585f.jpg) | ![](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/public/images/space.gif) | | --- | --- | **What** Managing T4-8 dysfunction requires a broad skill set incorporating postural advice, manual manipulation, and therapeutic exercise. **Sample Exercises for Improving T4-8 Extension Mobility**   - Brügger relief position - beginner   ![Brugger's Relief Position.jpg](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/Brugger's%20Relief%20Position.jpg "Brugger's Relief Position.jpg")   - Back stretch on the ball - intermediate   ![T-spine Ext. on Ball.jpg](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/T-spine%20Ext.%20on%20Ball.jpg "T-spine Ext. on Ball.jpg") - Kolár's wall slide with arm elevation - advanced   ![Kolar's Wall Slide.jpg](http://www.sportsrehabexpert.com/Kolar's%20Wall%20Slide.jpg "Kolar's Wall Slide.jpg") **How** Knowing why mid-thoracic dysfunction is clinically important, when it should be addressed, and what techniques are therapeutic is only the beginning point for successful management of the patient with a problem in this area. Satisfactory results will result from learning how to incorporate this knowledge and skill into patient care efficiently. A moment or two per session spent explaining the relationship between function and pain is one such step. Each exercise requires a unique "report of findings" to motivate the patient to incorporate it into his or her daily routine. The Brügger relief position is an ideal workplace "micro-break." It activates an entire chain of muscles linked to the upright posture. To prevent the tendency to hyperextend the lumbar spine with this exercise, it should be performed with active exhalation. The back stretch on the ball is comfortable and relaxing. It promotes improved respiration. It can cause dizziness at first, so the patient should be guided slowly onto it until he or she has learned how to balance on the ball. Kolár's wall slide with arm elevation is a functional exercise, since it combines arm elevation, squatting and breathing. Patients typically feel a nice stretch in the lattismus dorsi with this exercise. **Summary** T4-8 dysfunction is a common source of muscle imbalance, trigger points, joint dysfunction, and faulty movement patterns. While often asymptomatic, it is nonetheless a key source of biomechanical overload involving the neck, TMJ, shoulder, arm, and even low back regions. Treatments which aim only at the site of symptoms are bound to fail if function is disturbed due to excessive kyphosis in the mid-back. Rehabilitation of the upright posture is fundamental to optimization of function in the locomotor system. Neurological programs for maintenance of the upright posture are "hard-wired" into the central nervous system, making rehabilitation of the mid-thoracic area of central importance, both biomechanically and neurophysiologically. The mid-thoracic region is "linked" to a multitude of common musculoskeletal pain syndromes, and the simple assessment and treatments shown here are an excellent complement to chiropractic practice. **References**   - Brügger A.

VII     ***ALL DYNAMIC MUSCLE ACTION IS TRIPHASIC!**** *** *** *** *That one simple sentence is what ties every sport together and allows all athletes to be trained using the same method, yielding the same results.  It is what this entire book is about.  Understanding the physiologic nature of muscle action taking place during dynamic movements gives you, the coach, a foundational training method that can be applied to every sport.  Couple this method with a periodization schedule that can be altered to fit with any training time frame and you have the tri-phasic undulating block method.*   *In a very brief and basic explanation that will be expanded upon at length in later chapters, the triphasic nature of all dynamic movement can be broken down into three phases:* *1)   **Eccentric phase:** This is the deceleration or lowering portion of the movement.  It is associated with muscle lengthening.  During this phase, kinetic energy is absorbed and stored in the tendons of the muscle structure to be used during the stretch reflex.* *2)  ** Isometric phase:** This is where the mass, or athlete, comes to a complete stop before being accelerated in a new direction. (This is actually governed by Sir Isaac Newton’s Laws of Motion. More on that and physics later.)* *3)   **Concentric phase:** This is the acceleration of an athlete or mass. It is associated with muscle shortening.* *As the adage goes, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.  If your training program consists solely of methods that train the concentric portion of dynamic muscle action, your athletes are heading into the season with a chain consisting of one strong link and two weak links.  This book is designed to show you how to develop the other two phases of dynamic human movement with a periodization model that will make all three links strong and optimize the performance of your athletes. Remember that:*   *            ATHLETIC MOVEMENT = DYNAMIC MOVEMENT = TRI-PHASIC MOVEMENT*   Now, for the very large majority of us, “triphasic” muscle action is not new. In fact, if you were to look at your college anatomy and physiology books it might be discussed within the very first chapter, but looking at your athlete’s strength programming I’d bet you’ll find it (or at least the isometric and eccentric portions) as scarce as tourists wearing shorts and a t-shirt during a Minnesota winter!  Sure you’ll find some isometric holds or eccentric tempos from time to time but rarely will entire phases be dedicated to developing these qualities.  And even more rare would be finding these qualities developed or emphasized within a sports medicine rehabilitation program!!   With close to 400 pages of information along with sample programs, Cal’s book leaves no preverbal stone unturned.  The addition of video links to each exercise in each sample program and video explanations and other **[recorded presentations](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqy8HDa2eqA)** throughout the book makes Triphasic Training one of the most complete training books I have ever read-watched-(and stole from)!   Whether you work in the performance arena and train elite athletes or a sports medicine clinic working with athletes looking to return to activity, Triphasic Training is a must read and will immediately impact each and every athlete you work with!   ### See [Cal Dietz](https://www.bsmpg.com/hockey-speakers-2012/) present at the 2012 BSMPG Summer Seminar May 19-20th in Boston. ### Register today before seats are sold out!   [![Click me](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/52884/5eab198d-d075-4abd-9540-fd9c6293e219.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/52884/5eab198d-d075-4abd-9540-fd9c6293e219)     0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://www.bsmpg.com/Blog/bid/84166/Triphasic-Training-A-Systematic-Approach-to-Elite-Speed-and-Explosive-Strength#comments-listing) Topics: [BSMPG](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/bsmpg), [athletic training conference](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/athletic-training-conference), [boston hockey summit](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/boston-hockey-summit), [boston hockey conference](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/boston-hockey-conference), [athletic training books](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/athletic-training-books), [Cal Dietz](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/cal-dietz) ## [Reading From Last Week](https://www.bsmpg.com/Blog/bid/83891/Reading-From-Last-Week) Posted by Boston Sports Medicine and Performance Group on Wed, Mar 21, 2012 @ 06:03 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ### Recommended readings from this past week in Sports Medicine and Performance. ### Enjoy!

While certainly such therapeutic interventions as Active Release Techniques and Graston Technique may act as positive adjuncts in the management of such cases, I often find myself using exercise interventions with relatively more rapid results. As always, patient management should always be context dependent but this is what I’m finding. Interestingly, when therapists do consider exercise interventions, heel raises/lowers off stairs seem to be the “exercise of choice”. Often such presentations are acute or “hot” and based on [Craig Purdam’s work on tendinopathies](http://www.jeffcubos.com/2011/01/30/diagnosis-and-management-of-tendinopathies/), such exercises may be too advanced for significant progress to be made. Now before I introduce some alternative exercises, I’d like to address the “One Toe Syndrome”. Patients with plantar sided foot pain, especially women for some reason, often present with this “syndrome”. They may indeed have five toes, as most of us do, but if you look closely the toes actually function as one unit rather than five individual units. . ![](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3314/3580687956_1433fd26a9.jpg "One Toe") The "One Toe" Syndrome Continue to read this article by **[Jeff Cubos](http://www.jeffcubos.com/)** by clicking **[HERE.](http://www.jeffcubos.com/2011/12/15/plantar-sided-foot-pain-going-barefoot-and-simple-exercises/)** ****  **![BSMPG](https://www.bsmpg.com/hs-fs/file-5407358-png/images/bsmpg_logo_stacked_v01_600.png) **   ## Remember to Save the Date for the [BSMPG 2012 Summer Seminar ](https://www.bsmpg.com/2012-summer-seminar/)- May 19-20th in Boston MA.

Well, we did. BSMPG is proud to announce May 19-20, 2012 as the selected date for Sports Medicine and Strength professionals to desend upon Boston MA for another monster conference! So how could we ever top last year's speaker set? Let's just say that we asked last year's speakers who they wanted to hear and we got em! As we did last year, this seminar will be divided into three distinct educational tracks including a Hockey focus, a Basketball Focus, and a clear Sports Medicine/Rehabilitation Track with Keynote Speakers throughout the weekend bringing each track together for common lectures. Attendees may choose to stay within one track throughout the entire weekend or mix and match to meet their educational needs. Remember to save the date now - you won't want to miss another great summer seminar presented by BSMPG.   ## **Date:** May 19-20, 2012 ## **Location:** Boston MA.

Influenced your** **philosophy?** **What have you learned from them that you can you share? ** Karel Lewit & Vladimiir Janda the great Czech neurologists have had by far the greatest influence on me. They have taught me that functional pathology of the motor system holds the key to reducing pain, preventing injury & enhancing performance. Their approach focuses in the broadest sense on all structures of the locomotor system (skin, fascia, muscle, tendon, ligament, and joint). What is most important are the faulty movement patterns that are "memorized" in the CNS and lead to tissue strain. **Name 3-5 books everyone helping basketball athletes should have in their library and why?** - Stuart McGill - because it gives a ‘no-nonsene' approach to spinal biomechanics 101. Sadly a horribly misunderstood subject - Karel Lewit - Musculoskeletal Medicine - it gives the foundation for an integrated approach to manipulation & rehabilitation - Joanne Elphinston - Stability, Sport and Performance Movement - great illustrations of stable & unstable movements - Vern Gambetta - Any of his books - because he know how to coach better than anyone else **What is the last book you read and why? ** Continue reading this interview by clicking** [HERE](https://www.bsmpg.com/craig-leibenson/)** ****  ****  0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://www.bsmpg.com/Blog/bid/83742/BSMPG-2012-Summer-Seminar-Agenda-Finalized#comments-listing) Topics: [basketball training programs](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/basketball-training-programs), [athletic training conference](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/athletic-training-conference), [Craig Liebenson](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/craig-liebenson), [boston hockey conference](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/boston-hockey-conference), [DNS course](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/dns-course) ## [Advanced Athlete Monitoring For Injury Reduction at the 2012 BSMPG Summer Seminar](https://www.bsmpg.com/Blog/bid/83562/Advanced-Athlete-Monitoring-For-Injury-Reduction-at-the-2012-BSMPG-Summer-Seminar) Posted by Boston Sports Medicine and Performance Group on Wed, Mar 7, 2012 @ 07:03 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Join [**Jose Fernandez** ](https://www.bsmpg.com/sports-med-speakers-2012?&t=56744)and other top Sports Medicine and Sports Performance professionals from across the world as they desend on Boston this May 19th-20th for the 2012 BSMPG Summer Seminar.  Choose from a number of specific learning tracks or mix and match to suit your learning needs.  Keynote speakers throughout the weekend include **[Dr. Craig Liebenson, Chris Powers, Alan Grodin, Irving Schexnayder, and Bill Knowles.  ](https://www.bsmpg.com/keynote-speakers-2012?&t=14512)** ## **Register today for this once in a lifetime event!

From a physical perspective, coaches need to make sure their athletes are healthy and available to play every night. A healthy professional athlete should be capable to display a good performance just by being healthy. Everything else that can be achieved with training is a plus. In a league where teams have to play 3-4 games a week and take more than 90 flights per season, time is limited for coaches to carry out physical training sessions with their players. A training program must be precise, specific and adjusted to the individual needs of each athlete. Coaches should focus on maintaining and reducing the loss of training adaptations throughout the season while enhancing the recovery and regeneration strategies. At this year´s BSMPG Conference, I will be presenting ideas on how to objectively profile athletes attending to their neuromuscular characteristics and type of muscle fiber predominance. Continuing with this neuromuscular approach to athlete monitoring, innovative ways to quantify effects and duration of the training and treatments will be discussed. Being able to control the rate at which each muscle gains and looses activation after a training session or how exactly certain therapy treatment affects the functionality of any muscle group is crucial if we want to schedule training actions at the right moment, with the aim to maximize the physical performance and minimize risk of injury during the competition. From an injury prevention perspective, new concepts to evaluate athlete´s readiness to train and assessment of change in muscle response induced by training will also be suggested, with a clear focus on practicality and applicability. Aiming for maximal performance is a complex task. The purpose of my presentation is to offer some insight into the analysis of an athlete´s neuromuscular condition and how this can help coaches optimize training in an objective, reliable and time saving manner. I look forward to seeing you at the BSMPG Conference in May!     0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://www.bsmpg.com/Blog/bid/83562/Advanced-Athlete-Monitoring-For-Injury-Reduction-at-the-2012-BSMPG-Summer-Seminar#comments-listing) Topics: [Art Horne](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/art-horne), [basketball performance](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/basketball-performance), [BSMPG](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/bsmpg), [athletic training conference](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/athletic-training-conference), [boston hockey conference](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/boston-hockey-conference), [Logan Schwartz](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/logan-schwartz), [Andrea Hudy](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/andrea-hudy), [Bruce Williams](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/bruce-williams), [Mark Toomey](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/mark-toomey), [Cal Dietz](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/cal-dietz), [Alan Grodin](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/alan-grodin), [Joel Jamieson](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/joel-jamieson), [Dan Boothby](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/dan-boothby), [Jose Fernandez](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/jose-fernandez) [Previous](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/athletic-training-conference/page/2) [All posts](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/all) [Next](https://www.bsmpg.com/blog/topic/athletic-training-conference/page/4) ### Barefoot in Boston now available on Amazon.com “The residents who live here, according to the parable, began noticing increasing numbers of drowning people caught in the river’s swift current and so went to work inventing ever more elaborate technologies to resuscitate them.
