Description:
Improve Movement Efficiency and Function in Your Clients
Movement in life is multidimensional and fluid. As an exercise professional, it is important to improve your clients’ movement efficiency to support their daily activities. It is equally important for you to have a strong foundation of anatomy and biomechanics to support exercise selection and program design. Recorded live at IDEA World 2019, this course taught by Lauren Shroyer, MS, ATC, ACE Senior Director of Product Development, explores anatomy in its real-world context and provides progressive exercise techniques to impact movement and enhance function for clients of all fitness levels, from beginners to athletes. Anatomy and biomechanics have never been more exciting!

You will learn:
• The impact of ground reaction force on exercise selection
• The length-tension relationship
• To apply exercises for agonist and antagonist synergy
• How concentric and eccentric contractions apply to every day movement patterns
• The natural movement of the kinetic chain during gait
• Exercises to improve fluidity of movement to the five primal movement patterns
