This Independent Study Course series will take a look at all aspects of strength
and conditioning starting with basic sciences and progressing to assessment,
rehabilitation, and program design. The topics covered include the following:
stretching and flexibility; sport specific issues with flexibility, strengthening
and conditioning; core strengthening and stabilization; plyometrics; rehabilitation
of the overhead athlete and principles of dynamic stabilization; and a
comprehensive approach to designing a rehabilitation program related to strength
and conditioning. The authors will cover the management not only from the
standpoint of a clinical perspective, but also from the evidence for effectiveness
of practice that appears in the literature.
Upon completion of this monograph, the course participant will be able to:
- Explain the relationship between stress, strain, load, and deformation.
- Describe the concept of viscoelasticity.
- Describe the mechanical effects of outside factors on the structural and
biomechanical properties of connective tissue.
- Compare and contrast joint laxity and hypermobility.
- Determine the different methods of assessing flexibility.
- Describe the significance of age, gender, and tissue stiffness with
flexibility.
- Discuss clinical techniques and strategies related to flexibility and
extensibility and critical components that influence their design.
- Identify the dynamic and static stabilizing structures of the glenohumeral
joint.
- Identify the physical characteristics of the overhead athlete.
- Identify and outline a functional rehabilitation program from injury to return
to sport activities in an overhead athlete.
- Define the core.
- Describe the concepts, provide the scientific rationale, and design and
implement a program for core stabilization training.
- Describe the benefits and contraindications of resistance training.
- Describe the effects of resistance training related to special populations.
- Discuss the various phases of periodization.
- Interpret the numerous factors related to the development of a resistance
program.
- Determine appropriate candidates for plyometric training, proper timing for
introduction, and basic upper and lower extremity plyometric exercises.
- Understand the benefits and risks of plyometrics.
-
Describe sport specific issues with flexibility,
strengthening, and conditioning.
- Develop a general ability to individualize the above-mentioned strength and
conditioning programs.
