Tom tellez sprinting a biomechanical approachFlavio Clesio
The document provides an in-depth biomechanical analysis of sprinting technique. It discusses key concepts like impulse, stride length, frequency, and leg and arm action. Some main points:
1) Impulse is the foot-ground contact force over time and defines how the body produces linear movement. Proper force application results in increased stride length and frequency.
2) Stride length consists of takeoff, flight, and landing distances. Factors like takeoff velocity and angle of projection determine takeoff distance.
3) Stride frequency alone does not cause speed; force application to the ground through proper technique increases both length and frequency.
4) The stretch reflex and knee cycling aid the recovery

Walk and Run For Life! Through Lever Mechanisms Or Spring Mechanisms? Melbour...Dr. James Stoxen DC
Running, as decades of studies have shown, is one of the best ways for your patients to put distance between themselves and the aging process. The medical quandary, though, has been determining for mature patients when the physical demands of running – the wear and tear on bone and joints — outweigh the enormous anti-aging benefits. Many physicians err on the side of caution, supportive footwear, orthotics and even prematurely advising patients to stop running. It’s been a pleasure to be here in Australia. Many of you know the “Blue Wiggle” Anthony Field, and it’s interesting that you’re coming to a medical conference and you’re hearing a doctor talk about anti-aging medicine and the application of bare-foot running and that was certainly the exact same thing that the client said, when I recommended barefoot running and barefoot training to him back in 2004. What happened was this individual had chronic pain, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, which obviously was misdiagnosed, and he had clinical depression. To learn more about Dr. Stoxen’s other Lecture he gave entitled, ‘The Inflammation-Depression Connection at The 6th Annual A5M Conference In Anti-Aging & Aesthetic Medicine, click here I’m talking about the ‘Wiggles’ by the way and they were only in Chicago for approximately 48 hours, and we had a limited amount of time to try to fix this chronic condition that Anthony had for 25 years. What I did was what he called “the pain exorcism” which was a 15-hour-straight treatment broken up between, shows. Basically this was a grueling release of the human spring mechanism, and the flushing of the inflammatory chemicals with various therapies that was, extremely aggressive. - See more at: http://teamdoctorsblog.com/2013/03/lecture-video-and-power-point-notes-for-walk-and-run-for-life-through-lever-mechanisms-or-spring-mechanisms-melbourne-australia-august-19-2012/#sthash.oT1pIjK6.dpuf

Functional training methods are based on the principle of specificity and aim to train for a purpose using valid principles. Functional training focuses on closed kinetic chain exercises that are multi-joint, weight-bearing, and sport-specific movements like pushups and squats. In contrast, open chain exercises isolate muscles and joints like bicep curls. Understanding fascia is also important for functional training as it provides stability and allows for movement. Training should consider an individual's functional anatomy - hips need mobility, lumbar spine needs stability, and thoracic spine needs mobility. Overall, functional training integrates body systems and movements to prepare for sports performance.
Triathlon injuries are common, occurring in 35-90% of triathletes, and are often due to overuse rather than acute trauma. Overuse accounts for 68% of injuries during the pre-season training period and 78% of injuries during the competition season. The document outlines 8 common reasons for triathlon injuries, including going too far or too fast too soon in training, having a limited range of motion, lacking stability to move quickly, focusing on muscle size over neuromuscular education, inflexible connective tissue, neglecting foot health, not prioritizing bike fittings, and viewing rest as a negative rather than part of recovery. Functional training is presented as an approach to address these injury risk

It also discusses teaching sprint starts to young athletes by breaking the start into phases and focusing on key points.
Track and field is a sport comprising running, jumping, and throwing events performed in a stadium with an oval running track and a central grass field. Running events include sprints, middle-distance, and long-distance races held on the track, while jumping and throwing events take place in the central field. The sport has its origins in ancient religious festivals and the first recorded Olympic Games in 776 BCE.
The document discusses rehabilitation strategies for ACL injuries, including:
1. Early weight bearing and motion are beneficial to decrease pain and avoid stiffness, while closing kinetic chain exercises should be used in the first 6 weeks.
2. Bracing provides no advantages, and neuromuscular electric stimulation should be high intensity.
3. Accelerated rehabilitation programs are safe in the 5-6 month period, and water activities, stair climbing, and slide boards add variety and are also safe.
Hip Strength and Functional Deficits after ACL Reconstruction Return-to-Play ...Jeremy Burnham
Patients cleared for return-to-play after ACL reconstruction continued to exhibit hip strength and functional deficits after returning to sport. More objective measures should be developed to evaluate patients after ACL reconstruction.
Olympic weightlifting has numerous benefits for improving athletic performance. It develops strength, power, balance, coordination, and other physical attributes through explosive multi-joint movements like the snatch and clean and jerk. Research shows these attributes transfer well to other sports and that Olympic weightlifting is an effective training method for athletes of various ages when incorporated appropriately. The document provides definitions of the lifts and derivatives and discusses how Olympic weightlifting fits into models for long-term athlete development.
The study investigated the effects of minimalist footwear on landing biomechanics compared to self-selected athletic footwear. 10 participants performed landings from a 36.6 cm platform wearing their typical athletic shoe (C1) and provided minimalist shoes (C2). Kinematic data found significant differences between conditions at heel contact and maximum knee flexion for ankle angle, foot inclination, and ankle range of motion. Force data analysis found minimalist footwear resulted in lower peak impact forces and longer contact times compared to typical athletic shoes. The results suggest minimalist footwear may cause biomechanical adaptations during landing that could reduce injury risk by decreasing impact forces.
This document discusses the rehabilitation process for quadriceps muscle injuries from initial injury through return to play. It begins by covering injury classification and the muscle architecture of the quadriceps. It then discusses muscle mechanics in running and kicking sports. Rehabilitation stages are outlined from early isometric exercises to advanced functional training mimicking sports movements. A case study is presented of an athlete who suffered multiple quadriceps injuries and underwent a rehabilitation process focused on hypertrophy, tendon elasticity and returning to high intensity running.
Pulling Exercises: Analyzing the DeadliftJohn Cissik
This document discusses different styles of deadlifts, including conventional and sumo. It analyzes the biomechanics of each style and finds they are surprisingly similar, though conventional deadlifts involve greater range of motion in the hips, knees and shanks. Muscle recruitment is also largely the same between styles. Deadlifting places significant stress on the lower back but the back can adapt over time, increasing bone mineral content and resistance to compression. A variety of pulling exercises are mentioned that work the lower back in different ways.
Healthy Shoe Design - How shoes affect jointsOESH Shoes
This document summarizes research on how shoe design affects forces on the joints of the body. Studies conducted at Harvard Medical School and the University of Virginia used motion analysis systems and force plates to measure joint forces and loads in subjects of various ages walking and running in different shoes. The research found that shoe features like high heels, arch support and cushioning abnormality increase loads on joints. An ideal shoe design was determined to be flat in heel-to-toe and side-to-side directions without arch support or cushioning, allowing the sole to work in unison with the natural springiness of the foot.
The document discusses strength and conditioning concepts including building strength, power, endurance and flexibility. It addresses myths around strength training and discusses movement competency screening and prehabilitation exercises. Functional training focuses on core stability, scapular stability and sport-specific movements. Strength, speed, power, agility and quickness are differentiated and sample exercises are provided. Equipment needed for training is listed along with prices. Homemade equipment options using PVC pipes and other inexpensive materials are also presented.
The document discusses modern trends in competitive swimming training. It summarizes the concepts of baby swimming and aqua therapy. It then discusses problematic trends in competitive swimming coaching such as overtraining, misguided motor learning principles, excessive use of drills, reliance on swimming equipment for training, and performing weight and cross training. The document argues these trends are not evidence-based and can be detrimental to performance. It stresses the importance of refining swimming technique through valid pool practice to drive performance enhancement.

This document summarizes research on the effectiveness of body weight supported treadmill training (BWSTT) compared to treadmill training alone for improving gait and endurance in children with cerebral palsy. It finds that BWSTT may be more effective, especially for children with more severe impairments in levels IV and V on the Gross Motor Function Classification Scale. BWSTT can improve stride length, step length, walking speed and endurance. Treadmill training alone also provides benefits like increased walking speed and endurance but BWSTT may provide additional improvements in gait mechanics.

Circuit training involves moving from one exercise station to the next in a circuit, performing one set at each station without rest in between. It incorporates both strength and cardio training by alternating upper and lower body exercises with minimal rest periods between circuits. Circuit training is an efficient workout that provides benefits like improved cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength and endurance, flexibility, and motor skills. It is well-suited for those with limited time to exercise.
Why plyometric ?
Functional views : the sports like "basketball" requires repeated explosive actions and sports like "Long jump" requires just one action.
Periodization views : Convert Maximum strength to power.
Another good reason with so many exercises being available are that you can find exercises that don’t require the use of any equipment.
And some coach/trainer just use it for increases metabolic rate which increases weight loss and heart rate.
but is plyometric training safe for all your clients ?
why use ? where ? for what ? when ? for who ? and ...
Sincerely, Hamid Reza Ebrahmi
The document provides an overview of functional training principles including:
- Functional training methods are based on specificity across mechanical, coordinative and energetic domains.
- The functional pyramid outlines the progression from basic movements to sport-specific skills.
- The 5 principles of training are specificity, overload, progression, reversibility, and avoiding tedium.
- Training load, intensity, volume, and their balance are important concepts for periodizing training plans.
- Applications include assessing mobility, stability, and kinetic patterns to design training for different periods.
Circuit training involves completing a series of strength exercises in a circuit without rest between exercises to improve strength, stamina, and flexibility, with the exercises laid out in a circular pattern but sometimes varied; it provides a full-body workout and can be adapted for different fitness levels and goals through variations in exercises, duration, intensity, and rest periods between circuits.
This document provides guidelines and examples for improving speed and agility through training. It discusses techniques for sprinting, acceleration, transitions and changing directions. It outlines components of speed like stride length and frequency.

Examples of speed, agility, balance and reaction drills are also listed.
Biomotor Development for the Speed-Power AthleteMike Young
This is Dr. Mike Young's presentation on biomotor development for the speed-power athlete from the 2013 NSCA BC Provincial Clinic at the Richmond Olympic Oval.
This document discusses several principles of exercise and strength training, including specificity, overload, progression, and reversibility. It provides examples showing how these principles can be applied. Specificity states that the body adapts according to how it is exercised. Overload requires continually increasing the training stimulus for adaptations to occur. Progression involves building up technique and fitness over time through incremental steps. Reversibility means that adaptations are lost if training stops or decreases. The document also covers individualization, exercise order, and muscle balance in program design.
The document discusses several principles of exercise and strength training, including specificity, overload, progression, and reversibility. It provides examples and studies to illustrate each principle. Specificity refers to the body adapting specifically to the demands placed on it during exercise. The overload principle notes that the body only adapts when under greater stress than usual. Progression means building up training in a step-wise manner. Reversibility means adaptations are lost if training stops or decreases.

Exercise physiology classification of work by energy expenditureDr Usha (Physio)
This document discusses factors that influence energy expenditure during physical activity. It defines total daily energy expenditure and classifies activities based on intensity and duration. Activities are rated on a scale of metabolic equivalents (METs) relative to resting energy expenditure. Factors like body mass, fitness level, technique and speed can impact energy efficiency. The economy of walking is also examined, noting how terrain, footwear, speed and weights affect the energy cost of walking.
Elliptical trainers provide a low-impact full-body workout that benefits both the upper and lower body. They are growing in popularity due to their ability to reduce stress on joints compared to high-impact exercises like running while still providing a cardio workout. Unlike treadmills, elliptical trainers move the feet in an elliptical motion that simulates walking or running without impact. This allows users to get the benefits of cardio exercise with less strain on aging joints. They also work muscles in the upper and lower body simultaneously, improving fat burning and muscle endurance while reducing the perceived effort of the workout.

Keiser uses compressed air resistance rather than weight stacks to provide consistent resistance at any speed, allowing for power training through a full range of functional exercises.
Football is a high-intensity intermittent sport. Although players can cover up to 11km in a game,
most of this is done in short, sharp bursts lasting seconds, and this performance therefore relies on
anaerobic energy, speed and power. Plyometric (jumping) exercises to develop power are used by
sportsmen and sportswomen from myriad sports with success. But can they be applied to football
and combined with traditional approaches?
This document discusses endurance training considerations for general population clients. It outlines that low volume, moderate to high intensity strength training can improve strength and running economy without negatively impacting aerobic capacity when added to an endurance program. The needs analysis identifies core, unilateral, and rotational strength as important. Program design considerations include general versus specific strength training, movement economy, and addressing novices differently than experienced athletes. Case studies provide examples for a novice runner and experienced triathlete.

The document discusses ProLon, a fasting mimicking diet (FMD) developed by researchers at USC. It summarizes that FMD provides nutrition for 5 days to mimic the effects of fasting, including cellular cleaning, reduced IGF-1, weight loss and fat reduction. Clinical trials showed FMD helped reduce weight, waist circumference, blood pressure and inflammation markers while maintaining lean body mass. FMD may support health, wellness and longevity through cellular rejuvenation effects.
Heart Rate Training Guide for Personal TrainersGreg Maurer
Group and individual heart rate monitoring allows trainers and coaches to optimize each individual's exerise intensity which is the key parameter to driving results! This course provides an outline of the science and methods to using Heart Rate Monitoring to optimize performance and drive sales of individual and group programming
Here are the key points about grip from the document:
- There are white grip lines on the ActivMotion Bar located exactly 18" from each end.
- The ActivMotion Bar logo is placed directly in the center of the bar.
- These marks serve as reference points for different grips: hands on white lines, single hand on center logo, and offset grip.
- Grip affects the level of instability created - a wider grip increases instability while a narrower grip decreases it.
ActivMotion Bar Foundations Course OutlineGreg Maurer
The document introduces the D3 training method, a new approach to core, balance and strength training that focuses on disrupting, discovering, and defining movements with an activity bar. The method consists of three stages - Disrupt, Discover, and Define - where the body is moved against, with, and using force with the bar, along with example exercises. A master class routine and grid are provided to demonstrate how to create customized routines using three exercises from the D3 categories of core, balance, and strength.
This study compared muscle activation from using an ActivMotion bar versus standard fitness equipment like a weighted bar or medicine ball. Electromyography and inertial sensors measured muscle activity of participants performing exercises with each type of equipment. The ActivMotion bar activated muscles up to 173% more than standard equipment, with average increases of 20-40%. Greater muscle activation can provide benefits like increased calorie burn, faster strength gains, improved balance, and lower injury risk by building stronger supporting muscles. The ActivMotion bar is an effective tool for high-intensity workouts that produce significant muscle engagement.

bioDensity and Vibration Research ReviewGreg Maurer
This document reviews research on bioDensity isometric technology and whole body vibration. It finds that vibration exercise can help build strength, increase bone mass, improve organ function, balance, and quality of life for individuals aged 12 and older. Several studies show that short bouts of low-level vibration increased bone and muscle mass and reduced symptoms of conditions like osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue syndrome by stimulating blood flow and the release of hormones. Vibration exercise represents an effective non-pharmacological approach to improving health and functional ability, especially for the elderly.
This document summarizes the need and market opportunity for a program to reduce fall risk in the aging population. Falls are a leading cause of injury for those over 65 and result in loss of independence, yet few are screened for fall risk or receive training to improve balance and strength. The proposed program would utilize computerized screening and vibrational exercise training over 45 minutes per week to simultaneously increase muscle strength, balance, bone density and reduce fall risks in a time efficient manner. It would be implemented through a new clinic located within an existing fitness facility to target the large local population over 50 years old.
DMX Strength provides the first functional, motorized isokinetic training option. The intuitive android touch screen makes using it simple and provides accurate and easy to understand feedback on maximum force production; force production throughout the range of motion, total work done, power, and caloric expenditure.
This presentation provides a review of the science of isokinetic training and a guide for using DMX Strength to create effective strength training programs for a wide spectrum of people from deconditioned seniors to elite athletes!
This document discusses bioDensity technology, which uses isometric exercise to stimulate increases in bone and muscle density. It works by placing the body in optimal positions to engage muscles and generate maximal loads through self-imposed resistance, providing a strong stimulus. This high-intensity loading is safer than conventional weight training and stimulates an adaptive response, increasing density. A session involves 4 brief exposures targeting major muscle groups and provides performance feedback to users.
National fitness trade journal article june 2013Greg Maurer
The Sproing machine was created to help runners regain their natural running form and reduce injuries by absorbing impact. It does this through a unique spring system that holds runners from behind, allowing them to land on their mid-foot like real running instead of their heel. This, combined with soft cushioned surfaces that have give, replicates the feeling of running on sand. The founders developed the machine after realizing modern treadmills and shoes disrupted natural movement patterns and caused high injury rates, and wanted to fill the gap between low-impact ellipticals and high-intensity treadmills. Sproing has since been adopted by gyms, physical therapy centers, and professional sports teams as a tool for cardio, training, and rehabilitation
Whole body vibration platforms stimulate the body's natural response to vibration by creating instability, forcing the body to perform reflexive muscle actions multiple times per second. This results in increased muscle activation and improved strength, power, flexibility, and physiological enhancements like circulation from exercising on a vibration platform in less time. Whole body vibration training can also help reduce abdominal fat, increase bone density, stimulate hormone release, and has advantages for gyms in generating new programming revenue and product variety.

Treadmill Running
• Substantial impact, force and injury
• Treadmill running, and running with padded running
shoes, encourages an unnatural running gait – heel
striking
• This results in more impact to knees, hips and back
“Treadmill running topped the list in the
greatest amount of impact.”
(University of Wisconsin, LaCrosse)
“Force equal to 5 times body weight can
travel up the legs when running on a very
hard materials. This force drops to less than
twice body weight on very compliant
surfaces.”
(Journal of Biomechanics)
6. CARDO (CONTINUED) - ELLIPTICALS
Cardio | Strength | Power | Balance
8/3/201

page 6
Ellipticals
• Ellipticals force an unnatural motion
• Ellipticals use a dependent movement – one side
moves the other side
• This inhibits functional reflexes such as the cross
extensor reflex, which prevents ankle sprains
• In functional movement patterns, like running and
walking, the left and right side MUST communicate via
the nervous system and coordinate
• Removing this demand discourages functional reflexes
because there is no demand to coordinate left and right
sides
7. CARDO (CONTINUED) – SAND WALKING AND RUNNING
8/3/201
