CORE TRAINING SYSTEMS

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

FMS Level 1 (Friday)

The Core Training System is the product of years of research and innovation. This System develops exercise programs based on individual movement patterns. It is equally effective in rehabilitation as well as conditioning because it targets the weak link.  The System is made up of:

• Functional Movement Screen
• Core Training
• Reactive Neuromuscular Training.

Specifically, the Functional Movement Screen is a grading system created to assess and document functional movement patterns.  By assessing these patterns, functional limitations and asymmetries are readily identified.    Basic movement pattern limitations can reduce the effects of functional training and distort proprioception.  The goal of this workshop is to introduce you and your staff to the benefits of utilizing this orthopedic screening process since functional movement patterns are the base for Core Training. At the heart of the system are the Functional Movement Screen score and the movement patterns, which are directly linked to the most beneficial corrective exercises to restore mechanically sound movement patterns. 

Core Trainingis a series of exercises involving the Core Board, medicine ball, and tubing, targeted specific athletic movement patterns.  Reactive Neuromuscular Training is the scientific platform for the Core Board exercises and medicine ball work that will be presented.

Objectives:

At the conclusion of the course participants will be able to:

1. Assess fundamental movement patterns and determine weaknesses
2. Understand Functional Movement Screen Scoring System and how it pertains to movement dysfunction

            3.   Determine mobility and stability problems within general population groups

4.   Prescribe corrective exercise techniques which are designed to improve   fundamental movement mechanics

5. Develop a greater appreciation of the importance of assessing and correcting movement pattern dysfunction

FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT CORRECTIVE EXERCISE PROGRESSION SEMINAR OUTLINE

THIS WORKSHOP IS ONLY AVAILABLE TO FMS LEVEL 1 CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS

The Functional Movement Corrective Exercise workshop is designed to enhance exercise professionals’ perspective on improving fundamental movement patterns.  The Functional Movement Screen(FMS) will be reviewed and corrective exercise progressions will be discussed based on movement dysfunction.  The functional exercise progressions will be demonstrated and focus will be placed on how to utilize the FMS to properly prescribe and implement corrective exercise strategies. This workshop is designed to provide more hands-on/practical information, using case studies and lab settings to show how to use the FMS to provide the foundation for improvements in overall exercise programming.

The purpose of this workshop is to:

• Provide more insight into implementing the FMS into your training philosophy
• Enhance your ability to use the FMS progress from corrective exercise to functional and traditional exercises.
• Introduce other assessment techniques which complement the FMS
• Describe traditional and non-traditional strength and conditioning exercises and how they fit into the FMS system
