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.

| Description: | Submaximal strength testing can be used to estimate 1 RM performance for exercisers who have inadequate experience handling heavy free weights. Generally when using a submaximal load, it is customary to use a weight that causes a client to reach momentary muscle failure within 6-10 repetitions. For the purpose of our predictors, we will be using the Baechle (2000) equation: weight (lbs) x (1 + (o.o33 x # of reps))
Remember, that before performing any more strenuous exercise to complete a proper warm-up. | ||
