A.
Muscles that perform hip abduction and external rotation are
tensor fasciae latae (TFL)
glutes medius and minimus
psoas major and minor
sartorius
piriformis
gemellus superior and inferior
obturator internus and externus
quadratus femoris
The gait results form straining the hip abductor muscles during physical activity. Exercises for
strengthening the glutes are a common culprit for weakness in hip abduction and external
rotation. Weakness in these muscles can also result from any nerve damage or dysfunction,
especially in those that run through your gluteal minimus and medius muscles.
B.
Banded squats: works several muscles, gluteus medius, hip abductor and quadriceps. The band
tension increases bodily awareness, creating a mind-muscle connection in those areas, also
stregthen the hip abductors which in result will aviod knee valgus while squating.
The knees mainly buckle inward, during the concentric phase. People are usually good at
stretching the band during the eccentric phase, but they often lack the motor control and mind-
muscle connection to do so during the concentric phase. so it is important to pause briefly at the
bottom of the squat and push the band outwards with your knees as soon as he begins the
concentric phase. The band acts as an external force, so performing the movement right and
slowly will give us the goal we want which is strengthening the hip abductors and hip rotators
thus strengthening the knee, while giving the mind and muscles the chance to achieve the mind-
muscle connection needed.
C.
Lower extremity functional scale (LEFS) is a questionnaire containing 20 questions about a
person's ability to perform every day tasks. The LEFS can be used by clinicians as a measure of
patients initial function, ongoing progress and outcome, as well as to set functional goals. The
total score is 80, see how tom will get out of 80, and determine how severe is his condition
affecting his daily life activities.

I will give Tom the lower extremity functional scale form, ask him to fill it up. According to the
scale, tom will read every option included and rate it from 0 to 4 by making a circle for each
activity and see how difficulty level performing that activity, then we will calculate the total
score. These are the rates:
0 - extreme difficulty or unable to perform activity
1 - quite a bit of difficulty
2 - moderate difficulty
3 - a little bit of difficulty
4 - no difficulty
for tom, these might be the affected areas in his functional scales according to his condition
usual hobbies
squatting
going up or down 10 stairs
running on an uneven groud
hopping
so according to tom's affected activities, his score would be minimum 60/80, and according on
how much the affected activities will be rated, the final score will be taken. if there are any other
affected activities, this minimum score will be less, but we are just assuming
working with tom, we will have to the same process after a while to see his progress, so if after 2
weeks we did the scale again, and his score increases, then he is making progress, but if the score
remains the same then he is not making progress nor getting worse, if the score decreases then
his condition is getting worse.
D.
The amount of motivation differs from client to another, it depends on his/her personality
The 3 components of motivation are:
Autonomy: The need to feel control and independence.
Belonging: The need to feel connected to others and part of society.
Competence: The need to feel capable of doing something successfully.
refered as the ABC's of motivation
For the autonomy component in tom's case, a corrective exercise specialist can't leave his client
out of sight or leave him in control of the session so he can not hurt himself or something wrong,
