understanding phasic program design Flashcards
exercise prescription
structured format with the application of quantified stress in appropriate doses to stimulate specific physiological adaptations
exercise programming for even when the average person can become somewhat complicated due to
health-related considerations
different personal goals
training aptitudes
limitations in contact time needed to address all physiological issues
steps to increase proficiency in exercise program design
- be able to identify the most important findings during a comprehensive screening and evaluation
- prioritize the defined needs
- understand which activities and exercises address the problems, based on physiological adaptation response
- implement the exercise principles and program components in a manner that will foster goal achievement
needs analysis helps categorize
relevant findings of the client evaluation and identify client specific solutions
musculoskeletal assessment
posture, functional tests
cardiovascular assessment
resting HR, BP
metabolic assessment
BMI, central girth, body comp, blood glucose
cardiorespiratory assessment
cardiovascular assessments
muscular fitness assessment
anaerobic strength, endurance, power test
movement fitness assessment
stability, flexibility, mobility
posture assessment: plumb line
issue
forward chin, slight forward shoulder
posture assessment: plumb line
solution
strengthen mid/lower traps and rhomboids
posture assessment: plumb line
exercises
y and t
seated low and high row
reverse flys
single arm row
posture assessment: plumb line notes
tight hamstring prevent bent-over row, mix y and t reaches with good morning
flexibility assessment: failed apley test, failed Thomas stretch, failed single leg hip flexion test
issue
tight internal rotators
tight hip flexors
tight hamstrings
flexibility assessment: failed apley test, failed Thomas stretch, failed single leg hip flexion test
solution
stretch pectorals and subs cap
stretch rectus femurs and iliopsoas
stretch proximal and distal hamstring
flexibility assessment: failed apley test, failed Thomas stretch, failed single leg hip flexion test
exercises
supinated T reaches
bulgarian squats
straight led and mobility lunges
split stance good morning
active isolation stretch
flexibility assessment: failed apley test, failed Thomas stretch, failed single leg hip flexion test
notes
focus on lower body unilateral exercises
address flexibility of each in warm up and cool down
mobility assessment: OH squat
issue
tight lats
underactive glute and rectus abdominis
poor central stability
mobility assessment: OH squat
solution
stretch lats
strengthen glute max, rectus abdominis
improve core stability
mobility assessment: OH squat
exercises
I reaches
step ups, reverse lunge, glute bridge, hip kickback
closed chain abdominal work
mobility assessment: OH squat
notes
no bilateral work until pelvic stability
increase OH lifts
strength balance assessment:
issue
weak hamstring
weak trunk flexion
weak glutes
strength balance assessment:
solution
increase knee flex strength
increase abdominal strength
increase glute strength
