dc.description.abstract |
Strength and conditioning is a multifaceted approach to athletic performance. The profession requires knowledge in areas that include injury risk reduction techniques, conduction of performance assessments, identification of limitations with mobility and stability, muscle activation, and optimization of sports performance. With the creation of a lab manual, future professionals will have basic knowledge to succeed in their respective careers. The lab manual will bridge the gap of current teachings with a lack of kinesthetic hands-on experience for the field. It should include coaching cues, information on functional anatomy, and practical application pieces. The lab manual would further assist individuals aspiring to pursue a career in strength and conditioning. The purpose of this project is to propose the creation of a lab manual for kinesiology students, future strength and conditioning coaches and community. |
