Strength Band Training, 3rd Edition
SKU: 814
This course is offered in cooperation with Human Kinetics and utilizes the paperback textbook, “Strength Band Training” by Phil Page and Todd Ellenbecker, c2020.
Whether you are training in the gym, at home, or on the road, Strength Band Training shows you how to maximize strength, speed, and flexibility. Featuring more than 160 exercises and 27 fitness and sport-specific workouts, you will discover why strength bands are the ultimate tool for targeting, isolating, rehabilitating and developing every major muscle group.
This new third edition includes new chapters on training for older adults and rehabilitation, training tips connecting research to specific exercises and injury prevention recommendations. The exercises allow you to add resistance in multiple directions for routines that simulate sport-specific demands, improve strength, enhance movement, or target muscles to help prevent or recover from common injuries. 246 pages.
Course Length: 4.0 contact hours.
Instructional Level: Beginner/Intermediate.
This course is only available as an electronic download.
Strength Band Training, 3rd Edition
Course Goals: This course is intended to instruct the student through self-paced study on the foundations using elastic bands to increase strength, endurance, and power in clients of all ages.
Student Objectives:
At the end of this course, the student will be able to:
1 Understand the advantages and disadvantages of the use of elastic resistance instead of weight machines for resistance training.
2. Analyze the formula for determining force production in elastic bands.
3. Evaluate isotonic and elastic band strength program’s effectiveness.
4. Analyze the strength curve produced by both isotonic and elastic band exercises.
5. Evaluate the differences between different types of elastic resistance devices.
6. Understand the intensity and volume of elastic band tubing exercise required to accomplish client-specific goals.
7. Understand the relationship of color to the resistance of Thera Band elastic bands.
8. Analyze the proper progression of 4 specific exercises within an elastic band exercise program.
9. Evaluate the position of elastic tubing in relation to the fibers of the muscle being exercised.
10. Analyze proper stretching techniques prior to the initiation of exercise.
11. Understand the time required to obtain an adequate stretch using elastic bands.
12. Evaluate the lateral shoulder raise exercise and the muscles involved.
13. Analyze the correct biomechanical form for shoulder exercise in scaption.
14. Understand the muscles involved in ankle inversion exercises.
15. Evaluate head position during the dynamic hug exercise.
16. Analyze the muscles involved in the Linton external rotation exercise.
17. Understand sport-specific exercise as it relates to the resisted plyometric lateral jump.
