Compensatory exercises are aimed to prevent functional disorders, especially the locomotor system disorders. The locomotor system plays an important role, as it produces the overall movement of the human body. Professional athletes often push the functional physiological abilities to their limits and may easily overload or even damage the locomotor system. That is why compensatory exercises aim to reduce the negative effect of overloading, to eliminate functional disorders and to maintain the muscle balance.

Learning outcomes

Student is able to:

·         Describe the basic principles of stretching and strengthening as a part of compensatory process.

·         assess the locomotor system and offer an individually appropriate compensatory activities

·         detect muscle imbalances in cervical and thoracal region and recommend an exercise program for its influence.

·         detect muscle imbalances in pelvis, hip and lumbar region and recommend an exercise program for its influence.

·         detect muscle imbalances lower extremities and recommend an exercise program for its influence.
