Bridge The Gap: Optimal Shoulder Health

On Demand

Bridge the Gap in Shoulder Care

Self Paced. Online. Everything you need to know to bridge the gap in building a healthy shoulder.

This course is a part of the Bridge the Gap series where we dive into motion assessment of the shoulder, a process for regression/progression of movement and exercise towards meeting the intended goal - while having a guiding framework in place for testing to help the coach and clinician make safe and educated decisions when progressing their clients. You will learn testing protocols, exercise regressions and progressions, coaching cues, and practical strategies to incorporate.

Course Objectives

● Appreciate the Joint-by-Joint approach, Thomas Meyers Anatomy Trains, and biomechanical perspective of a multi-joint complex.

● Develop respect for the biomechanics, joint contributions, myofascial layerings that

influence an individual’s performance and health

● Develop understanding of appropriate exercise progression along the rehabilitation and

performance continuum.

● Develop understanding of the assessment process for necessary movement quality prior

to introducing a client to high level fitness.

Instructional Methods

● Watching pre-recorded videos as primary method of instruction

● Reading digital material associated with each module
