ForwardSunday Pre-Conference Workshop: The Resistance Training Prescription: Combined Lecture and Lifting Experience
This experiential workshop is designed to provide attendees an overview of the benefits of progressive resistance training, how to reduce the risk of injury and associated concerns, how to manipulate the variables involved in designing clinically safe programs, and hands-on experience with the flow of a session, choosing appropriate weights, and proper form on the principle exercises. Attendees will walk away from this unique workshop with a better understanding of how to safely begin their own program, discuss resistance training as a mode of exercise and answer patient’s questions, provide motivation, and connect with qualified fitness professionals for patient referrals virtually, or in their local area. Attendees will have the opportunity to practice compound lifts with free weights during this workshop.
