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: | This original Cunningham Faulkner test requires the athlete to run on a treadmill set at a speed of 8 miles/hour and an incline of 20% (11.3°) until unable to continue
- The athlete warms up for 10 minutes
- Sets the treadmill speed to 8.0 miles/hr (12.9 km/hr) and an incline of 20% (11.3°)
- The athlete conducts a few practice starts getting onto the treadmill at the test speed
- Give the command "GO", starts the stopwatch and the athlete commences the test
- Stop the stopwatch when the athlete is unable to continue
In the modified Anaerobic Speed Test (mAST, Murao 2018), athletes will use the values of 15% grade and 9 mph (8 mph females), allowing this test to be completed on most commercial treadmills.
