Frequently Asked Questions

Why do security guards need a biomechanical assessment?
Security Guard work creates specific biomechanical demands that accumulate over time. The protocol assesses Hip Internal Rotation, Thoracic Extension, Ankle Dorsiflexion to identify occupational strain patterns before they become injuries.
What does the Security Guard protocol address?
The protocol targets the 4 most common biomechanical issues in security guard work, with 3 corrective priorities and occupation-specific exercises.
How do I get started with the Security Guard protocol?
Apply for an assessment through AKMI. Your coach will run the Security Guard protocol as part of your initial structural evaluation, then build a personalized corrective plan based on the findings.
