GUIDELINES

"DO YOU WANT TO BE SAFE?"
THEN YOU MUST
PLAN FOR IT!

strength training guidelines
Using functional training in your strength and fitness training programs will improve your movement capabilities and will give you strength that you can use. Taking a strength development from a movement and skill perspective rather than the perspective of isolated muscle training, develops neuromuscular efficiency (the body's ability to move efficiently as an integrated unit). This optimal functioning reduces injuries and improves performance. This training methodology should be used for all populations, regardless of performance needs.The construction of the human body reveals a master design. It is a work in progress and it is highly adaptable to a variety of conditions and stresses! The human body is a unit, a kinetic chain, where movement is more than just individual muscles contracting and relaxing. Each link in the kinetic chain has a specific role to play and each link is part of an integrated whole resulting in efficient flowing movement!

"SAFETY COMES FIRST"

In order to ensure a safe and effective functional strength training experience, here are a number of strength training guidelines:

1 Always consult your physician prior to starting any exercise program.

2 Complete a thorough warm-up before starting any workout.

3 Always complete your workout with a cool-down session

4 It is imperative that you follow the appropriate progressions when advancing through your exercises.

5 Do not hurry any exercise or advance to a higher level of exercise (more complex) before completing its basic version.

SUMMARY

The purpose of these guidelines is to increase safety and decrease the likelihood of injuries that might ultimately improve the standard of care being offered. It is hoped that all practitioners and participants employing them will mutually benefit from applying this information, and in turn significantly enhance the quality of services and programs provided to everyone who wishes to benefit.
