Biomechanical comparison of two squatting protocols in adolescents and young adults with femoracetabular impingement syndrome

Participants with FAIS squatted to a shallower depth during the HSquat compared to the TSquat and displayed altered biomechanics, accordingly. Given these findings, greater standardization of squatting techniques is warranted as technique variations may affect outcomes, and researchers must consider potential adjustments made by those with FAIS in their natural squat movement.

Abstract

Participants with FAIS squatted to a shallower depth during the HSquat compared to the TSquat and displayed altered biomechanics, accordingly. Given these findings, greater standardization of squatting techniques is warranted as technique variations may affect outcomes, and researchers must consider potential adjustments made by those with FAIS in their natural squat movement.
