Reconceptualizing
Biomechanics within BPS
when biomechanics matters
but
we still start with a BPS explanation even
with acute injuries or flare ups.
Reactive Tendinopathy
re-enforce that the pain is protective and
is not well correlated with damage
gentle exercise/isometrics is still helpful
we let it desensitize and then build back
up
A practical message
while we have some research suggesting
the loads on the spine are comparable
to trying to maintain neutral there is no
research strongly saying that a flexed
spine under heavy conditions is safer
but
Do not confuse the safely threshold gained in
heavy loading with a need for that safety
threshold during simple tasks (sitting, standing,
picking up a feather)
(Myer 2015)
perhaps
under low loads the
biomechanical variable is not as
consistently related to pain
Habit Interruption
habit interruption
when biomechanics matters
Dankaerts et al 2006
during sitting NSCLBP patients with a flexion pattern
disorder position themselves near the end of the
available flexion range at the symptomatic region of
the spine,whereas patients with an active extension
pattern disorder hold themselves actively into
hyperextension (potentially leading to abnormal
tissue strain and pain).

temporary changes
to desensitize the
ecosystem
when biomechanics matters
Changes in form
Changes in habitual postures
All used as temporary measures to minimize
irritation or to break a pain habit
Not to be considered BAD form or correcting faulty
function
Examples (squatting, running interventions, hip
hinge)
do we need to worry
about subtle changes in
alignment or form?
reconciling the SICK Scapula
What do we say?
The tendon is sensitive
It hasnt been given a reason to adapt so it stays
protective and defensive
(Ryan 2014)
Hockey
Mobility is needed in certain sports
Gymnastics
Golf
Blanket statements are difficult
Individuals are also able to adapt and tolerate load
(Petersen 2011)
Hamstring Loading
Arnason (2007)
The main finding of the present study was that eccentric strength
training with Nordic hamstring lowers combined with warm-up
stretching seems to be effective in preventing hamstring strains in
soccer.
In contrast, stretching during warm-up and flexibility training of the
hamstrings group had no effect on the incidence of hamstring strains
Nordic Hamstring
Results
67 acute hamstring injuries
44 new and 23 recurrent
15 injuries in intervention group (12 new and 3 recurrent)
52 injuries in the control group (32 new and 20 recurrent)
no injuries during the exercise
Number needed to treat (NNT) = 13 to prevent 1 injury
NNT for a new injury = 25
NNT for a recurrent injury = 3
Petersen (2011)
screening
implications?
all physical assessment screenings should be both
simpler (test biomotor abilities) and more complex (test
the exact demands of the sport)
Not a panacea
Strength and mobility training may be most useful
when loading approaches tolerance
Does not make sense in activities when loading is
not near tolerance

Nyman 2009
In the cohort analysis, the association between high physical workload and the group with
any one symptom (LBP and/or NSP) was OR 1.47 (95% CI 1.37 to 1.57). The co-twin
control analyses indicated that the association was not confounded by genetic and shared
environmental factors with OR 1.34 (95% CI 1.02 to 1.75) for dizygotic twins and OR 1.44
(95% CI 1.06 to 1.95) for monozygotic twins
Hartvigsen 2003
Statistically significant graded relations were found for increasing workload and
LBP of longer duration but not for LBP of shorter duration (</=30 days during
the past year).
when biomechanics
matters?
they are part of the ecosystem and are influenced by a
myriad of factors.
We will never parse their exact importance and will continue
to be deceived into believing they are extremely important
or not important at all based on the limits of our own
personal interactions
