I gained a better understanding of how to increase speed & agility for my clients. I will incorporate agility and speed drills with my workouts for my clients to better increase performance. There is a wealth of information in these courses, but perhaps narrowing down the essentials would be helpful in the future.
I enjoyed the links that were provided to further expand on the subject. I will be able to use these in my practice for further reference and patient education. There are always new drills that I am not familiar with and being able to perform and demonstrate these to clients is always helpful.
Refreshed and updated activities and exercises. Will use it with my athletes in the clinic and at the school system
New drills to incorporate. Information as to helping an athlete depending on hand/eye coordination. We have sports driven practice so this will be helpful when assessing athletes and injury prevention.
Gained new exercises to work on agility, core strength, balance, speed, coordination and muscular strength with my clients. I will use this material by conducting fitness assessments based on my clients goals.
Broader understanding of the subject matter. I see this as motivational in seeking more continuing education. I am looking forward to the next program.
The material is put together well, with a great deal of valuable information. Easy to understand and follow. Highly recommend this course!
I gained a new set of core exercises. The progressions are thoroughly covered to build a foundation of core strength. Looking forward to adding!
Insightful!! This course helped refresh, strengthen and expand my knowledge which I can easily incorporate immediately into my sessions.
This course colorfully bullet pointed vital detection methods that were completely applicable from any person experiencing pain and discomfort! It’s most definitely going into action for my personal self-maintenance. As an independent pro wrestler, I have had years of troublesome pains as well as physical restrictions that sprout up seasonally. It truly is worth every penny!
I like the course. All in all I found it very interesting. I am a personal trainer, so adding a little time at the end and guiding the client through working out his or her own trigger points will greatly add to their wellbeing. I really liked it.
Excellent review of information I have used in my practice for the last 30 years. The “Workbook” was excellent and I will use that as a reference for a life time. Excellent slides and explanation of muscles, trigger points and stretches to explain and demonstrate therapy to patients. I have been using this therapy for 30 years. This course gives me the tools to thoroughly explain the causes of pain and referral areas and demonstrate the techniques the patient can use at home to prevent, alleviate and manage their pain. The course is very well thought out and as a visual learner, I was easily able to grasp the ideas and apply them in a timely fashion.
I have gained greater insight on muscles and trigger points and how to effectively treat them. I will be better apt to help my clients in assessing and self-treating their own trigger points. I will also be able to bring awareness to my own trigger points and how to accurately treat myself
Thorough understanding of trigger point therapy and its effects on performance and quality of lifestyle. I use these techniques for many years, having this course under my belt is very helpful. Validating what I’ve learned on my own through years of research and learning a thing or two. Thank you for a great course.
Trigger points untreated will lead to other issues. This course has help teach me to reduce pain as a result of trigger points. This will help me teach others to self treat when they are in pain from overuse.
