Assessment

[Alex Vasquez]

Bill,

Are there any general assessment tests you use with people to determine cause of low back disorders. I know mcgill uses an isometric ab hold @ 45 degrees, side bridges, back extension hold.

I was thinking we need something similar however we do not have a slant board, or space for the back extension hold.

I work in a corporate setting, and w need something easy to train people on and easy to implement.

Any help is greatly appreciated
