This course is one of our original shoulder courses and dives into the anatomy of the shoulder as well as our EMG tests. Therefore, this course brings the proof of science to our shoulder work. It is this course that started our shoulder journey. Our other two courses are the progression from this course. The Shoulder Stability WOW factor is a condensed version of the most important factors when trying to get your client to achieve scapula stability. It has less theory and more practical training. The Shoulder Stability Protocol is the God Father of all of our shoulder work into one course. The Shoulder Home Program focuses on a safe and effective shoulder program that can be taught in-studio or given to your clients to do at home. Therefore, if you are looking to start this journey and you want to bring in the anatomy with the shoulder work because you feel that might be lacking in your knowledge, then this is the course for you. And from here you can progress onto the other shoulder courses. We literally love shoulders this much and if you want to ACE your knowledge in shoulders then we would recommend them all. This course is the longer of our online courses with the exception of the shoulder stability protocol.
This course will teach you, the professional, the theory and practical on how to implement shoulder stability in order to achieve stabilization through a training your eye to see compensation. You will learn:
Training this special population can be nerve-racking because we know how delicate and important this stage is in a ladies life. The good news is that even though she is pregnant, she is capable of a lot. However, there are various precautions that we want to keep in mind. You will also need to make changes to her program as she progresses through her trimesters. The first step to teaching a pregnant client is to have a bit more knowledge of what their bodies are going through. In this course, we will be taking you through the theory of pregnancy (and no, not how babies are made) but what changes are occurring in her body. This will help you better understand what she is feeling like when she is doing certain exercises. We want to help you step into her shoes, see how she moves, hear how she feels and delve into the reality of moving when you are pregnant. Get a full pregnancy program, per trimester and watch and learn as we teach a pregnant client.
This course is to give the you, the professional a deeper understanding of how to set up a comprehensive program for a pregnant lady, bearing the 3 different trimesters in mind. You will learn:
