PRESENTATION SESSIONS
Title: What happens when the foot hits the ground?
Session description: When the foot hits the ground, a chain reaction affects the knee, hip and lumbopelvic region. Learn about ground reaction forces affect the foot, when someone excessively pronates, supinates or strikes the ground excessive, the chain reaction that takes place. Learn about why proper and adequate mobility and stability is needed within the body to perform functional movements. Finally, learn a new set of tools for your toolbox when it comes to assessing and helping clients. You will leave this session refreshed and invigorated.
Objectives:
• Identify the difference between mobility and stability as it relates to movement
• Identify why the ankle and hip require mobility to move
• Identify why the knee and lumbopelvic junction require stability
• Perform functional assessments that identify proper mobility within the chain
• Perform functional assessments that identify proper stability within the chain
• Perform static and dynamic exercises that strengthen the chain
Title: Mobility and stability; why we need it
Session description: Mobility and stability are important for daily and sport specific movements. What happens when someone lacks mobility or has too much? This session will delve into the science, providing you with the science to learn, assess and apply. Learn about fascia, trigger points, adaptive shortening all affect movement. You will literally leave with a new set of tools in your toolbox affecting client’s mobility and stability.
Objectives:
• Identify what fascia is, its role and why fascial dysfunction occurs!
• Identify the difference between mobility and stability as it relates to movement
• Identify why the ankle and hip require mobility to move
• Identify why the knee and lumbopelvic junction require stability
• Perform mobility exercises with a variety of exercise tools such as mobility balls, stretch straps and more to improve mobility of soft tissue
• Perform stability exercises for the entire chain challenging you
Title: Understanding your inner jigsaw puzzle
Description: The lumbopelvic girdle also known as the “core,” is comprised of some 29 muscles. That provide both static and dynamic stability. This session will review the functional anatomy and biomechanics of movement within the L/S junction, what fascia is and it’s role. We will review the latest research on the ‘weak links’ within the spine. Most importantly, review what spinal stenosis, spondylosis and spondylolisthesis is, and how to train a client functionally.
Objectives:
-Identify the functional anatomy and muscles that provide both static and dynamic stability within the L/S.
-Identify the pathomechanics on how the spine works from the inside out.
-Recognize the biomechanics of the lumbar spine and the muscles that synergistically work together
-Recognize the difference between spinal stenosis, spondylosis and spondylolisthesis
-Perform functional assessments of the L/S to identify muscle imbalances
-Perform at least 3 static and 3 dynamic lumbar stabilization exercises
-Design exercise programs that are personalized, evidenced based and get results
Title: Training the shoulder client
Description: The shoulder is a complicated joint which has the potential to become injured very easy. From arthritis, to tendonitis and ultimately a tear, this session will review the functional anatomy and biomechanics behind every day and sport specific movements. This webinar will delve into the reasons why individuals develop shoulder impingement, tendonitis and ultimate a RTC tear. Learn how to train all of these post rehab clients based on science with functional application.
*All sessions are workshop sessions
Objectives:
-Identify the functional anatomy and muscles that provide both static and dynamic stability within the shoulder.
-Identify the pathomechanics on how the shoulder works from the inside out.
-Recognize the biomechanics of the cervical and shoulder and how they synergistically work together
-Recognize the difference between shoulder impingement, shoulder tendonitis, and rotator cuff repair/injury
-Perform functional assessments of the shoulder to identify muscle imbalance
-Perform at least 3 static and 3 dynamic scapular stabilization exercises
-Design exercise programs that are personalized, evidenced based and get results
