A comprehensive training approach that combines all
Integrated Training the components necessary to help a client achieve
optimum performance.
The ability of the neuromuscular system to monitor
and manipulate movement during functional tasks,
Functional efficacy
using the least amount of energy, creating the least
amount of stress of the kinetic chain.
The ability of the neuromuscular system to contract
Functional Strength eccentrically, isometrically, and concentrically in all
three planes of motion.
The ability of the (human movement system)
neuromuscular system to allow agonists, antagonists,
Neuromuscular efficiency and stabilizers to work synergistically to produce,
reduce, and dynamically stabilize the entire kinetic
chain in all three planes of motion.
, an active stretch (eccentric contraction) of a muscle
followed by an immediate shortening (concentric
contraction) of that same muscle. Occurs when an
activated muscle transitions from an eccentric
contraction (deceleration) to a rapid, concentric
stretch-shortening cycle
contraction (acceleration). The rapid contraction
creates a stretch reflex, shortening potential energy
use to produce a concentric contraction more
forceful than could otherwise be generated by the
resting muscle.
Often exercises occur in the sagittal plane with the
traditional strength and primary emphasis on concentric force production.
conditioning Many athletic injuries occur in the frontal and
transverse plane.
*Side to side. Bisects the body
into left and right halves
Movement = flexion/extension
Axis = Coronal or frontal
Sagital plane
Ex's = bicep curls, tricep
pushdown, squats, front lunge,
calf raise, walking, running,
vertical jumping, climbing stairs
*Front to back. Bisects the body into front and back
halves
Movement = adduction, abduction, lateral flexion,
frontal plane
eversion/inversion
Axis = anterior/posterior
Ex's = side lateral raises, side lunges
* Horizontal bisection of the body into upper
(superior) and lower (inferior) halves.
Movement = internal/external, rotation, horizontal
transverse plane adduction/abduction
Axis = longitudinal
Ex's = cable rotations, transverse lunges, throwing,
golfing, swinging a bat
