Stacking Your Vital Information: A Movement Point of View
 
Working in movement provides us teaching moments we don’t get paid for. We get paid for coaching, rehab and training, but those who also take time to educate have better results and relationships. 

  The foundation of Functional Movement Systems is built on using movement patterns to identify dysfunction and then shifting the focus from the visible dysfunction to its root cause. While this approach remains cutting edge to some, it continues to take FMS further into new ways to look at managing movement problems with better teaching moments. 

  The first steps in fixing movement shouldn’t look like exercise. Exercises are the easy part. The first steps should look like awareness and responsibility. If you’re trying to improve your movement career or getting paid to develop movement for others, you’ll quickly realize that to do your best, you need to look deeper than today’s workout session. Gray’s talk will discuss the concept of holistic health domains from a movement point of view. Before you program the first exercise, what do you know about their Movement Health, Behavioral Health, Injury History, Breathing Quality, Physical Activity, Body Composition, Sleep Quality and Nutritional Awareness? Ask a few questions, screen a few movements and what you’ll learn may help you immensely. In this session, Gray will guide you on how to gather information and determine your responsibilities and lay down some non-negotiable rules for better health and movement.

Progressions, Regressions, and Manipulations: How to Maximize Your Client’s Ability to Perform Exercises with Proper Technique
 
Proper movement mechanics are crucial for the advanced training of clients.  However, not all clients can move properly when they start training with us.  The inability to move functionally is often due to limitations in mobility and stability.  However, sometimes the teaching of movements is missed or simplified and the movement pattern can be improved through the manipulation of the exercise.  During this presentation, Dr. Mary Kate Feit will use her experience in both collegiate and private sector strength and conditioning along with her doctoral degree in teaching to discuss the ways in which exercises can be altered and progressed over time to meet the movement ability of each client and to continually challenge the client as their movement ability increases .

Decoding What Makes The Real Difference – Thinking Differently About How to be Our Best
 
Whenever we think of ways of improving our practice our focus tends to centre around what we do – what methods of training we deploy, what exercises we use, what loads, what progressions, what velocities etc. Whilst these will always be important, something we often overlook is that it’s not just what we do – but how we do it that counts. The coach will always be integral to the success of any training intervention – yet far less is understood about what makes a great coach. Is there a single code to greatness and if so, how should we integrate this into our own practice?  This presentation will examine coaching from a systems perspective, opening up new perspectives on what makes a great coach and subsequently highlighting many potential development opportunities via which we can improve our own coaching practice.

10 Mechanical Load Management Strategies Optimizing the 8 Functions of Muscle
 
If I could only teach coaches and athletes one principle, it would be Load Management (LM). In your amazing body muscles play 8 roles for the physicality required of whole body dynamic action. Training all 8 functions helps build the most robust and skilled musculature while injury proofing clients. Discover also 10 biomechanical strategies that help you safely manage the most load and resistance in particular during full body 3D lifts.  Learn 100% actionable methods, mechanics and principles you can begin to deploy in the trenches Monday after the Summit. 

    LM is sometimes a volume consideration term. In this lecture and workshop LM refers to our ability to manage a load vertically down into the body, a line of pull horizontally across the body and also ground-up to handle our body mass (and weight we lift) into the ground. Deploying 10 mechanical LM strategies can make strength training kinder with much less orthopedic cost while being harder on the muscles, brain, and fascia where we want to stimulate max adaptations. This accelerates growth now and keeps you healthy and strong for the lifespan.

The Aging Accelerants: Counter to Buffer (at 35, not 45)
 
No, it’s never too late, but earlier is better when it comes to slowing ‘the pace’ at which we age.  With a glut of hacks and quick fixes to age younger, the self-help obsession has nit-picked, band-aid solutions for Big Rock challenges.  Chronic disease brews for decades, smoldering in the 4 I's, what I coin the Aging Accelerants.  Whether our clients are on the FRONT end of primary prevention, the BACK end of known disease and referrals, or anywhere in between, we are tasked to restore an environment ripe for repair and regeneration. Join Pat in a ‘tried and true’ 5-7-3 approach to bolstering Hardiness, the resilience, durability and robustness to buffer father time, extend health-brain-play-spans, and add purpose, meaning and relevance to ‘living life.’  That’s real R.E.H.A.B.  The Hands-on will address each Training Bucket, how it extends our freedom to go and do, while delaying and dodging mobility disability, dependence and diminishing movember spheres.

All That Is Breathing
 
The popularization of breathing over the last many years has been well documented and highly warranted.  While the training and rehab world mainly identifies with breathing as it relates to the function of the core, breathing has many other uses in human performance.  Uses for influencing the nervous system, getting ramped up for performance, and zeroing in on recovery will all be discussed.
