Iliotibial Band Syndrome in Runners Biomechanical Implications and Exercise Interventions PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION CLINICS OF NORTH AMERICA Baker, R. L., Fredericson, M. 2016; 27 (1): 53-?

Abstract

Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) has known biomechanical factors with an unclear explanation based on only strength and flexibility deficits. Neuromuscular coordination has emerged as a likely reason for kinematic faults guiding ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ toward motor control. This article discusses ITBS in relation to muscle performance factors, fascial considerations, epidemiology, functional anatomy, strength deficits, kinematics, iliotibial strain and strain rate, and biomechanical considerations. Evidence-based exercise approaches are reviewed for ITBS, including related methods used to train the posterior hip muscles.
