- Name the fundamental principles
of exercise science and describe their relationship.
- Many instructors advocate that
"more exercise is better." Many others advocate that
"less exercise is better." Why are both groups wrong
and what is best?
- By what standard should an instructor
properly evaluate any given workout (in general) and, conversely,
what long-term problems could arise by gauging progress solely
by this 'measuring stick'?
- How does the rate of fatigue
of a muscle affect warm-up and exercise load time prescription?
- What effect does stored energy
torque have on muscular inroading, and what does this tell you
about repetition speed and purposeful movement?
- Explain Type S and Type G strength
curves and what they mean in regards to partial range training
or exercise tools that do not provide consistent and adequate
tension throughout the full range of movement.
- Why is it irrelevant to conduct
muscle fatigue testing, to determine neurological efficiency
and fiber type, if a trainee has less than six months of serious
exercise experience?
- What complications can you see
with program design of upper body exercises if a trainee has
fast to fatigue triceps, but slow to fatigue chest and deltoids?
- Why are the deadlift and hyperextension
exercises not ideal for developing optimum strength in the low
back?
- Name the five factors that 99%
of all strength testing studies ignore in their testing procedures,
making most of their recommendations and findings (and your current
knowledge about appropriate exercise prescription) invalid.
How well did you do? Do you feel
even more confident about your knowledge and abilities, or are
you more confused than ever? Maybe your current knowledge (and
possibly certification) has left you wanting or needing more.
If so, it's time to investigate
the International Association of Resistance Trainers, the only
certifying body that can provide you with both the analytical
and theoretical tools needed to discover the ideal dose/response
relationship of exercise for any client - all in accordance to
the Theory of Prescribed Exercise™.
You owe it to yourself and your
clients to be the best you can be, and that means working through
the toughest and most demanding testing procedures possible -
so demanding we cannot offer a quick weekend crash course, like
many other organizations. In fact, most of our students take
at least 3-4 months of continuous work just to complete our Level
I course - but they all agree... it's more than worth it!
Plus, we are federally recognized
with the Canadian Government, with students in several countries
around the world, including Spain, Brazil, Austria, USA, UK,
Canada, Iran, India, and Australia. Much of our direction and
materials are based on over 90 million dollars of research, conducted
by the University of Florida medical school and MedX Corporation.
We are gaining so much respect in the industry, we have even
established exclusive licensing for entrepreneurs to own Prescribed
Exercise™ centers, which offer the most intense, intricate
and detailed training and operations available today, anywhere
in the industry.
If all of this sounds even half
as exciting as we've described, don't delay. Read over our Personal Trainer Certification
FAQ section, download our Personal
Trainer Certification Curriculum Outline, read excerpts from
our materials in the Fitness and Exercise Books section, and send
us any questions you may have via e-mail.
You won't regret it!
