Foundations

Description

Foundations is the ideal way to understand the structure and system Applied Functional Science®. This course will enhance your ability to individualize care in performance, rehabilitation, and prevention. How one is traditionally taught and how the body truly moves has created a significant gap in the understanding and practice of movement professionals. This course bridges that gap through story, scientific principles, and applications that can be immediately embedded into treatment and training processes.

Learning Objectives

· Describe how Physical, Biological, and Behavioral Sciences converge to create Applied Functional Science®.
· Describe the Functional Movement Spectrum relative to the physical, biological, and behavioral sciences.
· Describe the need for, and importance of, Applied Functional Science® Nomenclature.
· Describe the Principle-Strategy-Technique Process.
· Explain Real Motion (of the bones) and Relative Motion (of the joints), including the five (5) different ways Relative Motion occurs.
· Explain how Muscles experience eccentric lengthening in all three (3) planes of motion prior to concentric shortening in all three (3) planes of motion.
· Explain how Joints are integrated into a system for global movements.
· Explain the difference between Isolated Integration and Integrated Isolation.
· Explain Real Motion (of the bones) and Relative Motion (of the joints), including the five (5) different ways Relative Motion occurs.
· Explain how individual differences can impact the strategies for Prevention, Rehabilitation, and Performance.
· Understand the gaps between traditional movement and functional movement as it pertains to the physical, biological, and behavioral sciences.
· Apply techniques for Performance, Rehabilitation, and Performance based on the physical, biological, and behavioral sciences.
