Progressing from Principles of Fitness exercise techniques, Students will learn additional training strategies in order to design exercise programs for client’s wishing to improve anaerobic capacity, movement quality, and occupational requirements (e.g. police and paramedic). Students will be introduced to various training techniques such as: joint mobility, dynamic warm-ups, multi-joint lifting techniques, lunging/stepping patterns, grip strength, advanced cardiovascular interval and tempo training, circuits and more.
Target population: Adults (18-65), healthy

| Description: | Generally, 1-RM testing is conducted on advanced lifters using compound (multi-joint) movements such as: squat, leg press, bench press, deadlift, power clean, snatch. If you need to estimate a client's 1-RM, use the calculator here: 1-RM Calculator 1-RM Warm-up Protocol N.B. Have client spend 5-10 minutes warming up (combination general and dynamic is ideal).
Testing Protocol For loads above 90% of hypothetical 1-RM, look to increase by:
Use up to three attempts (and not more than 5) to determine actual 1 RM with 2-4 min rest between each effort. If an athlete fails on a lift, give them 2-4 minutes rest and re-attempt the lift by decreasing the load (from the failed attempt):
