Virtual (On-Demand) Events can offer you the best of both worlds, allowing you to WATCH FROM ANYWHERE from May 21st at 12:01am EST to May 29th at 11:59pm EST while still giving you the feeling of a live event.
Chain Reaction is designed for any and all movement science practitioners. If you are invested in learning how the body moves on all three planes of motion as an inter-connected whole, rather than as isolated pieces, we encourage you to enroll in Chain Reaction.
Features & Benefits
Hosts / Presenters:
Dr. Gary Gray PT, FAFS
Gary is referred to as the “Father of Function” and the leading pioneer and authority in human movement analysis, rehabilitation, training, and prevention. He is highly respected as a physical therapist, trainer, coach, author, mentor, and successful inventor. With over 40 years of experience, Gary has transformed his physical, biomechanical, and behavioral understanding of the body into the most empowering performance-enhancement, injury prevention, and rehabilitation applications. His passion for education and sharing, along with his desire and innovation, allows him to translate the complexities of human function into simple, effective techniques. Through the power of Applied Functional Science®, Gary’s goal is to enhance the lives of movement professionals and the lives of those they treat and train. Gary serves as the CEO and Chief Content Creator of Gray Institute® and GIFT (Gray Institute for Functional Transformation), as well as the Founder of Free2Play Free2Play®, a dynamic 501(c)(3) organization utilizing movement to transform the lives of children across the world.
Doug Gray FAFS, FMR, CAFS, 3DMAPS
Doug is an accomplished businessman, entrepreneur, national lecturer, author, coach, trainer, and athlete with a deep understanding of and experience in Applied Functional Science®. He has worked extensively with coaches, trainers, therapists, professional athletes, children, and parents. He has participated in the development, production, and delivery of numerous seminars, lectures, workshops, and videos / DVDs dealing with functional prevention, rehabilitation, and performance enhancement, including the 3D Matrix Performance Series. Furthermore, he has pioneered in the extensive development and publishing of Applied Functional Science® Nomenclature. Doug serves Gray Institute® as President, as well as Director and Faculty of GIFT (Gray Institute for Functional Transformation), is co-lecturer for Chain Reaction® (renowned seminar series), and also serves as a principal Member / Officer of Free2Play®, a dynamic 501(c)(3) organization utilizing movement to transform the lives of children across the world.
By the end of the course, the participant will be able to identify the three fundamental sciences of Applied Functional Science and how they affect an individual (patient / client / athlete).
By the end of the course, the participant will be able to perform a global 3D movement analysis (3D Global Analysis) for all three planes of motion, as well as emphasize flexibility / mobility and strength / stability within the movements.
By the end of the course, given the results of a 3D Global Analysis, the participant will ascertain the functional abilities of the following: foot / ankle, knee, hips, lumbar spine, thoracic spine, cervical spine, and shoulder / elbow / wrist.
By the end of the course, the participant will be able to design progressive treatment and / or training programs utilizing all three planes of motion based on the 3D Global Analysis.
By the end of the course, the participant will understand the difference of Traditional Biomechanics and Functional Biomechanics (Chain Reaction®) of the following: foot / ankle, knee, hips, lumbar spine, thoracic spine, cervical spine, and shoulder / elbow / wrist.
By the end of the course, the participant will be able to design a treatment and / or training plan incorporating all three planes of motion for the following: foot / ankle, knee, hips, lumbar spine, thoracic spine, cervical spine, and shoulder / elbow / wrist.
By the end of the course, the participant will be able to distinguish and utilize the following variables of movement: action, environment, position, driver, direction, height, distance, load, rate, and duration.
By the end of the course, the participant will be able to understand the Prevention,Performance, and Rehabilitation strategies and potential movement progressions for the following: hip flexor strain / tightness, hamstring strain, ankle sprain, plantar fasciitis, ACL, low back pain / tightness, thoracic spine dysfunction, whiplash / acute cervical pain, elevation impingement, and tennis elbow / lateral epicondylitis.
