This two-day workshop bridges the gap between training theory and practice.
About this Event

This two-day workshop bridges the gap between theory and practice. Participants will gain hands-on experience monitoring training loads, designing session and weekly training plans, and providing training programs to meet the individual needs of athletes and patients. The workshop is presented in a small group setting, promoting interaction and discussion amongst participants, and allowing ample time for Q&A. Whether you are an experienced practitioner or simply want to gain some practical ideas to implement in your clinic, this workshop will help you to “build a training program from the ground up”!

 

 Learning Objectives and Goals:

Upon successful completion of this course, the practitioner will:

* Understand the difference between acute and chronic workloads.

* Demonstrate the importance of high chronic workloads in protecting against injury.

* Understand how to calculate and apply the acute:chronic workload ratio to safely progress athlete workloads.

* Gain an understanding of the factors that protect against "spikes" in workload.

* Develop return to train, play, and 'compete' plans.

* Understand how to identify the 'worst-case scenario' and prepare players for these demands.

* Understand how to individualize aerobic training programs.
