Training Load Metrics

Understanding Training Load Metrics in Rehabilitation In rehabilitation, training load is a key variable that therapists adjust to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes. This load can be categorized into two primary types: external load and internal load. External Load (Demand) External load refers to measurable aspects that exist outside the patient, such as the physical work load prescribed during rehabilitation. In the context of resistance training, … Continue reading Training Load Metrics

Training Principles

The aim of physical training principles is to facilitate and improve performance in specific physical tasks by stimulating structural and physiological adaptations in the body. The best approach to stimulate adaptations is to perform tailored exercises (prescribed using FITT parameters), governed by a set of training principles that activate specific energy supply systems. The key principles of training (1) to consider when planning/designing an exercise … Continue reading Training Principles

Overload Principle: Training with Purpose

Authored by Nate Martins Original article from HVMN. Overload principle states that in order for the muscle to increase in size, strength and endurance, it must be regularly challenged to produce an output that is as near as possible to maximum capacity. The technique pushes the body past its limits, further breaking it down to force adaptations that lead to performance gains. Skeletal muscle is composed … Continue reading Overload Principle: Training with Purpose

The Deadlift exercise: Understanding Biomechanics, different types, & how to implement it in people with low back pain

Introduction The deadlift is a multi-joint resistance exercise that can be done in a number of training environments. The lifter must grab a barbell at mid-shank level in a squat stance and extend the lower back, hip, knee, and ankle joints to elevate the weight. Any activity that requires strong knee, hip, and trunk extensors could benefit from including the deadlift in the training regimen. … Continue reading The Deadlift exercise: Understanding Biomechanics, different types, & how to implement it in people with low back pain
