Frequently Asked Questions

Why do farmer / agricultures need a biomechanical assessment?
Farmer / Agriculture work creates specific biomechanical demands that accumulate over time. The protocol assesses Straight Leg Raise, Hip Internal Rotation, Thoracic Extension to identify occupational strain patterns before they become injuries.
What does the Farmer / Agriculture protocol address?
The protocol targets the 3 most common biomechanical issues in farmer / agriculture work, with 3 corrective priorities and occupation-specific exercises.
How do I get started with the Farmer / Agriculture protocol?
Apply for an assessment through AKMI. Your coach will run the Farmer / Agriculture protocol as part of your initial structural evaluation, then build a personalized corrective plan based on the findings.
