This intensive 2 day course will give you an introduction into how S&C can transform your current practice both with athletic and non-athletic patients.

• Understanding the key principles of S&C & how you can implement these into early, mid and late stage rehab (from post op to pole vault...if that's your sport)

• Why exercise prescription is more than just 3 sets of 10.

• How to identify the correct strength-training goal for your patients (& not just the sporty ones).

• Understand the biomechanics of strength training (This is more fun than it looks, I promise)

• How to increase your patient's strength without hypertrophy or needing a gym membership.

• Why rest intervals during strength training are so important for the recovery of the nervous system & how manipulating this can affect the quality of your exercise programme.

• How you can adjust exercise programmes for pathological conditions & get better, faster results (including guidelines on return to sport).

• The difference between strength and power movements & why knowing the difference is essential in return to sport from injury.

• Why adjusting load is the key to managing overuse injuries & why light load can sometimes be not as effective as heavy load.

• Why fundamental movement patterns are essential for all your patients.
