Time Block I - Thursday, 2:45-4:35pm
Presented By Greg Roskopf, MA
Session Format: Lecture
We walk on them all day. We expect them to handle the forces of gravity and ground reaction forces. Functional exercise is dependent on proper foot mechanics, so why do we give them such little attention? In this class, you will gain an understanding of the impact muscle function has on overall foot mechanics and its relationship to overall function. We will discuss the special properties of various shoewear and orthotics.
