The document discusses functional training for runners. It provides an overview of the A.M.A.S.S. method for assessing, mobilizing, activating, stabilizing, and strengthening runners. It then details various assessments that should be performed on runners, including evaluations of running form, spinal alignment, shoulder mobility, core strength, foot mechanics, and ankle stability. The goal of these assessments is to identify areas needing prehabilitation exercises to improve mobility, activate muscles, and develop stability.

Narrated Business Proposal for the Philadelphia Eaglescamrynascott12
Slide 1:
Welcome, and thank you for joining me today. We will explore a strategic proposal to enhance parking and traffic management at Lincoln Financial Field, aiming to improve the overall fan experience and operational efficiency. This comprehensive plan addresses existing challenges and leverages innovative solutions to create a smoother and more enjoyable experience for our fans.
Slide 2:
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall afternoon, driving towards Lincoln Financial Field. The atmosphere is electric—tailgaters grilling, fans in Eagles jerseys creating a sea of green and white. The air buzzes with camaraderie and anticipation. You park, join the throng, and make your way to your seat. The stadium roars as the Eagles take the field, sending chills down your spine. Each play is a thrilling dance of strategy and skill. This is what being an Eagles fan is all about—the joy, the pride, and the shared experience.
Slide 3:
But now, the day is marred by frustration. The excitement wanes as you struggle to find a parking spot. The congestion is overwhelming, and tempers flare. The delays mean you miss the pre-game excitement, the tailgate camaraderie, and even the opening kick-off. After the game, the joy of victory or the shared solace of defeat is overshadowed by the stress of navigating out of the parking lot. The gridlock, honking horns, and endless waiting drain the energy and joy from what should have been an unforgettable experience.
Our proposal aims to eliminate these frustrations, ensuring that from arrival to departure, your experience is extraordinary. Efficient parking and smooth traffic flow are key to maintaining the high spirits and excitement that make game days special.
Slide 4:
The Philadelphia Eagles are not just a premier NFL team; they are an integral part of the community, hosting games, concerts, and various events at Lincoln Financial Field. Our state-of-the-art stadium is designed to provide a world-class experience for every attendee. Whether it's the thrill of game day, the excitement of a live concert, or the camaraderie of community events, we pride ourselves on delivering a fan-first experience and maintaining operational excellence across all our activities. Our commitment to our fans and community is unwavering, and we continuously strive to enhance every aspect of their experience, ensuring they leave with unforgettable memories.
Slide 5:
Recent trends show an increasing demand for efficient event logistics. Our customer feedback has consistently highlighted frustrations with parking and traffic. Surveys indicate that a significant number of fans are dissatisfied with the current parking situation. Comparisons with other venues like Citizens Bank Park and Wells Fargo Center reveal that we lag in terms of parking efficiency and convenience. These insights underscore the urgent need for innovation to meet and exceed fan expectations.
Slide 6:
As we delve into the intricacies of our operations, one glaring issue emer

10. ASSESSMENT FOR RUNNERS
www.functionaltraining.net
• Front Arm: Elbow is approximately
flexed (bent) to 70º and makes a
‘short lever arm’ in regards to the
distance of the hand from the mid-line
of the body (Spine), which decreases
any braking momentum in the stride.
• Back Arm: Elbow approximately
extends to 155º and makes a ‘long
lever arm,’ which helps shuttle kinetic
energy backwards to propel the
runner forward.
• Hip Extension of the ‘Stance’ Leg
(Back Leg) should approximately open
to 10º of extension, which lengthens
the stride and drives the runner
forward.
• Knee Extension of the ‘Stance’ Leg (Back Leg) should approximately open to 150º of extension.
• Hip Flexion of the ‘Recovery’ Leg (Front Leg) should approximately open to 80º and create a relatively
‘short lever arm’ of the Front Leg in relation to the midline of the body, which helps reduce the braking
forces in the stride.
• Knee Flexion of the ‘Recovery’ Leg (Front Leg) should approximately open to 80º to create the
mechanically desired ‘short lever arm’ of the front leg.
11. ASSESSMENT FOR RUNNERS
www.functionaltraining.net
• Hip Extension of the ‘Stance’ Leg
(Back Leg) should approximately open
to <20º of extension, which offers the
optimal ‘Length-Tension Relationship’
of the Hip and Leg muscles.
• Knee Extension of the ‘Stance’ Leg
(Back Leg) should approximately open
to <160º of extension.
• Hip Flexion of the ‘Recovery’ Leg
(Front Leg) should approximately open
to 45º and create a relatively ‘short
lever arm’ of the Front Leg in relation
to the midline of the body.
• Knee Flexion of the ‘Recovery’ Leg (Front Leg) should approximately open to 40º to create a ‘short
lever arm’ of the front leg and allow for a fast turn-over in the stride.
• Midline of the body should align over the ‘Stance’ Foot. Many times, an individual will strike the
ground with the heel in front of the midline, which creates a ‘braking’ force and slows the runner.

The objective of the Multi-Stage Fitness Test (MSFT), developed by Leger & Lambert (1982)[1], is to
monitor the development of the athlete's maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max). This test is very good for
games players as it is specific to the nature of the sport but, due to the short sharp turns, it is perhaps
not suitable for rowers, runners or cyclists.
•This test requires the athlete to run 20m in time
with a beep from a CD recording. The athlete must
place one foot on or beyond the 20m marker at the
end of each shuttle.
•If the athlete arrives at the end of a shuttle before
the beep, the athlete must wait for the beep and
then resume running
•If the athlete fails to reach the end of the shuttle
before the beep they should be allowed 2 or 3
further shuttles to attempt to regain the required
pace before being withdrawn
•The assistant records the level and number of
shuttles completed at that level by the athlete when
they are withdrawn
Conditietest protocol
37. www.functionaltraining.net
The athlete's maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max) can be determined from the MSF Table using the
Level and Shuttle achieved and compared with the general population
