Full Course Description

Human Performance Continuum

Program Information

Objectives

  1. Assess the human performance continuum as it pertains to rehabilitation
  2. Evaluate energy systems and their impact on movement capacity

Outline

Human Performance Continuum
Pyramid: LIVE, MOVE, PERFORM

  • LIVE: sleep, nutrition, work, function
  • MOVE: mobility, flexibility, motor control
  • PERFORM: speed, power, sport skill
Energy Systems:
Anaerobic: Alactic and Lactic
  • High energy demand
Aerobic:
  • Highly adaptive to training.  
    • Improved heart contraction strength
    • Improved heart contraction stamina
    • Improved local tissue capacity and stamina
Movement Centers:
Shoulder
  • Anatomy and mechanics
  • Fascial lines and kinetic chain
  • Assessments
Knee
  • Structural anatomy
  • Global movement
  • Assessments
Spine
  • Stabilize and transfer force
  • Mobility vs stability
  • Assessments

Target Audience

Bulletproof Summit: A Movement Experience

Program Information

Objectives

  1. Identify the biomechanics, joint contributions, myofascial layerings that influence lower quarter performance and health.
  2. Apply baseline assessment for necessary movement quality prior to implementing high level lower quarter fitness.
  3. Implement appropriate mobility interventions for specific limitations for lower quarter.
  4. Utilize appropriate speed, change of direction, and impact progressions for knee performance and health.
  5. Analyze how the ankle and hip affect the knee from a joint by joint approach.
  6. Identify the biomechanics, joint contributions, myofascial layering’s that influence upper quarter performance and health.
  7. Apply baseline assessment for necessary movement quality prior to implementing high level upper quarter fitness.
  8. Implement appropriate exercise progression for the upper quarter along the rehabilitation and performance continuum.
  9. Critique the role of regional interdependence as it pertains to the spine.
  10. Apply assessment for necessary movement quality prior to implementing high level spine fitness.
  11. Assess developmental drills for trunk integrity.
  12. Create progressions toward basic movement patterns of the hip hinge and load/ support/carry.
  13. Assess developmental drills for the upper and lower quarters.
  14. Identify situations where the use of a kettlebell will facilitate improved motor control and strength.
  15. Utilize the Hardstyle Kettlebell Basic Patterns including: the arm-bar, the halo, the overhead carry, the single-arm KB press, the get up.
  16. Identify appropriate exercise and mobility implementation via case study exercise.
