Delivered by Dr Claire Minshull, one of the UK’s most highly respected rehabilitation specialists and founder of Get Back to Sport. Strength training is not bodybuilding. This course is applicable to both upper and lower limb specialists and those who deal with high functioning athletes, older adults with degenerative problems and anyone else in between.
Outcomes
In this course, you will discover the art and science of strength and neuromuscular training. You will:
expand your rehabilitation toolbox of exercise prescription, for strength and power
understand how you can manipulate exercise programmes for different conditions and get better, faster results
learn current scientific techniques to maximise rehabilitation gains for minimal effort
learn training techniques that can attenuate performance losses in the injured limb, even when the limb is immobilised in a cast
learn the limitations of prescribing 3 sets of 10
understand why older patients should be performing heavy resistance training and how to do this
Applicable to both upper and lower limb specialists
There is an advanced Level 2 course for those who’ve completed Level 1
Level 1 Topics:
Indices of neuromuscular performance & dynamic joint stability (strength, rate of force development etc).
Terminology and definitions
Efficacy of rehabilitation and conditioning interventions – for example what ‘is’ strength and thus how to optimally train it
Measurement & evaluation of indices of performance & underlying physiological events
The hierarchy of importance of indices of performance on dynamic joint stability
The performance characteristics and adaptation capability of contractile and non-contractile tissue
The ‘time frame for injury’
The principles of specificity, overload & progression & critical evaluation of rehabilitation and conditioning literature
Group practcal work including: design of progressive strength-focussed and separate power-focussed rehabilitation interventions for specific clinical case studies.
Dose-response prescriptions for true muscle strengthening, OR muscle power interventions with progressions and regressions to accommodate patients with different physical capabilities and goals
Periodisation as a template to phase prescription of what to focus on and when throughout an early-to end-stage rehabilitation programme.
