As a therapist or strength coach…

You are probably very comfortable talking about the musculoskeletal system.  But it is the neuromusculoskeletal system! The more you understand the nervous system, the better your programming will be for your clients.

The nervous system can be intimidating, because it is less tangible than the muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones. But the more you understand the structural make-up of the nervous system as well as its overall function, the more efficient your programming will become, and your clients results will skyrocket as a result.

Are you dealing with patients who experience pain or movement dysfunction?

Sensory input dictates motor output every time. The better input we give to a system, the better the motor program will be. If we want to have a better understanding of how to fix movement dysfunction we need to not only understand the structural components of the issue (the anatomy) but the functional components (the nervous system) as well.

Do you want to learn ways to improve the results with a better understanding of the nervous system??

  • Understand the anatomical components of the nervous system, and how each plays a part in sensory perception and movement.
  • Understand how pain can impact movement and how the nervous system priorities protection of injured tissue.
  • Learn and apply concepts of the Dynamic Systems Theory in order to better progress and regress your programming.

Learn about…

  • The anatomical make-up of the nervous system
  • How the nervous system directs movement in the presence of pain
  • How to manipulate sensory input to alter motor output
