Ball & Socket Joint | Movement, Examples & Function

🧭 Rotational Training & Ball-and-Socket Joints: Ball-and-socket joints love rotation, but need control. Here’s a bite-sized, athlete-focused remix. 🔒 Mobility with stability: Thoracic hip rotation joint stability 🎯 Centred ball: Maintain socket congruency for safer movement ⚡ Power transfer: Rotational moves boost core-to-limb power (throw/kick/swing) 🧠 Proprioception: Better joint position sense for high-velocity actions 🛡️ Injury risk: Balance around shoulders/hips reduces deceleration st
