FOUNDATIONS FOR FUNCTION with Anthony Carey DESCRIPTION Foundations for Function covers the fundamentals of functional training by presenting the health and fitness professional with the programming skills and knowledge essential for professional success. Foundations for Function refers to using our bodies the right way. Discover how to use functional anatomy, motor learning principles and a range of assessments to develop comprehensive functional exercise programs. Foundations for Function is based on fundamental anatomical, neurological, physiological and biomechanical principles. By using the blueprint of the human body as a guide, the goal of the approach is to bring about a functionally operating musculoskeletal system through structural strength and postural balance.

Additional Information on Anthony Carey Courses
Who should attend? This seminar is geared towards the advanced fitness and rehabilitation professional with at least one of the following criteria: - Minimum of 1-2 years active experience as a personal trainer - Four year degree in Exercise Science or Kinesiology - Physical Therapists, Registered Massage Therapists or Chiropractors - Athletic Trainers What can you expect to learn? During the 2-day session, the following topics are presented in lecture and hands-on format: - Functional Anatomy - Assessments - Motor Learning - Corrective Exercise - Critical Decision Making in the Exercise Design Process Function and core are the buzz words in the industry. The irony of this is that many health and fitness professionals don't understand functional anatomy. They may understand gross anatomy and isolated muscle action, but not how these systems function together in the body. By understanding functional anatomy, you can understand and design a functional training program. But if you don't understand how the body is integrated functionally, how can you create a personalized functional exercise program? In order to design a personalized functional exercise program we must understand: - The integrated slings and chains the body utilizes - How the body transfers force(s) - The properties of stabilization - The interdependency of the various systems within the body - The multilink response Assessments You can't manage what you don't measure. In other words, you can not gauge progress if you don't know where you started. The assessment is the departure point for anything you will do with your client. Without a through assessment, you will not be able to design an exercise program that will meet the musculoskeletal needs of your client. How can you determine if your intervention is working or working without adversely affecting other aspects of their musculoskeletal system? Three forms of assessment will be covered extensively: Postural Single leg stance Overhead squat Motor Learning Understanding motor learning is like putting on a pair of glasses that allows you to see the world of exercise in an entirely new light. You'll suddenly see why an individual would experience challenges with specific movements. You'll see how slowing down can actually accelerate progress! This course will challenge you to rethink many of the ways you have chosen to design exercise programs in the past. The Foundations for Function: Movement by Design seminar will take you through: - The stages of motor learning - Synergies and strategies - Altered motor control strategies Corrective Exercise A primary goal of corrective exercises is to help your client, athlete or patient better recruit targeted muscle groups for more dynamic exercises and improve postural alignment. Bypassing this critical step may result in dysfunction and development of imbalances. These corrective exercises can be used with your client, athlete or patient to assist them in recruiting the muscles you want them to use, establishing more appropriate motor programs. The body does this by learning or re-learning functional movements. Corrective exercises should be used in conjunction with the appropriate functional strengthening and flexibility progressions. Learn how corrective exercises can: - Release hypertonic muscles - Activate latent muscles - Elicit proprioceptive awareness of desired muscle groups - Influence postural alignment and the body's center of gravity (COG) - Improve the instantaneous center of rotation of the joints Seminar Outline Section 1: Functional Anatomy Section 2: Assessments on Posture, Alignment and Muscle Balance Section 3: Motor Learning and Corrective Exercises Section 4: Exercise Execution Section 5: Case Studies and Demonstrations Section 6: Questions and Answers Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday
