Ultimate Sports Rehab Expert: Exercise Roadmap

Choosing exercises can often be a difficult task for some individuals when writing up a rehab or fitness program. It sounds simple and easy. But we all know when pain and various different ailments our clients present with, it can be a very complicated issue. Especially if you don't have a system in place to recognize how to first choose the foundational exercises or activity which will elicit the most positive change. But then also how to modify or adjust these activities and exercises to fit the needs of the client without just ditching the exercise all together.

We have already mentioned the 7 concepts a sports clinician must master to recognize how they can better impact their clients.

But let's tweak those 7 concepts and break them down further into what's really happening when we choose an exercise. The purpose of those exercises tend to fall into 3 categories.

1) Cardiac development and resistance to fatigue

2) Strength

3) Movement variability and options

Your assessment will identify which quality most needs adaptation.

Which area can you make the quickest impact with the athlete?

There will always be a point of diminishing returns on each of these qualities and you must decide if the athletes time is best spent elsewhere. We know that good rehab and training look very similar.

Most programs will all contain in some capacity the squat, lunge, hip hinge, carry, vertical push/pull, horizontal push/pull. But all the goals remain the same.

1) Elicit a sensation that changes perception (neuro)

2) Influence motor learning and skill accusation

3) Create strength and work capacity

Knowing how to manipulate these variables with each of the 8 foundational movement patterns and exercises allows you to develop a program at any stage of rehab or fitness/performance. Certainly you can toy around with these ideas with your clients and take years trying to figure out what works best and when. Or you can learn exactly how to start manipulating your exercises to achieve the desired result faster. Expedite your learning curve by taking the "Ultimate Sports Rehab Expert Program" and be able to quickly and efficiently respond to difficult cases and clients in your setting.
