Description

Coaching efficient movement throughout the kinetic chain is a fundamental goal for every professional, yet chronic injury rates continue to rise, increasing by4% over the past decade. Instructing proper form requires a solid understanding of stability and mobility throughout the kinetic chain and serves as the basis for every performing exercise. This course is focused on the latest movement research to teach you how to properly coach the movement patterns of the upper extremity: the push, the pull, and our rotational/spiral patterns.
