Visualize Correct form to Eliminate Valgus
.
Use imagery to correct valgus in female athletes.
.
Valgus is that “knock-kneed” motion that can happen in female athletes, usually due to quadricep dominance. Valgus presents a risk of extreme knee damage due to the fact that the hamstrings cannot prevent the knee from literally tearing apart.
.
A new study from The Journal of Strength and Conditioning noted significant improvement in valgus where imagery was employed. Training which emphasises the “hip-knee-toe line” position when landing (avoid “kissing knees”) could prevent future ACL injuries… For a more in-depth analysis of why this occurs more in women than in men, please message me:)
