In this program, we will discuss how to design and structure a program for athletes and clients that are looking to make improvements in their performance and or health/fitness. Personal trainers, strength & conditioning coaches and athletic trainers share similar protocols and guidelines when designing functional fitness training and conditioning programs for their athletes and clients. Topics to be explored in this workshop include dynamic warm-up, integrated flexibility, balance and stabilization work, core conditioning, plyometrics, power training, speed, agility, and quickness training and overall functional strength as it relates to sport and human movement. This is an ideal workshop for intermediate and advanced level personal trainers, coaches, ATCs, and anyone working with athletes. What can you expect to learn?
- Define and explain 7 different components of a training protocol for sports performance.
