Complete Core Conditioning:  The Evolution of Core Conditioning
Complete Core Conditioning-DVDs

Complete Core Conditioning will take you step by step through core conditioning with your client.  It takes out all the guesswork when working with your client.  These DVDs  cover: exercises, grading exercises, proper cueing, why to use the exercise, compensation techniques your clients will use to cheat and more!



Why should you buy these DVDs?


What you will see and learn in these DVDs:

ϖ	-Functional Anatomy (and why knowing this will benefit your clients and make you even MORE popular with your clients)

ϖ	-Neutral Spine (how to clue your clients to find neutral spine)

ϖ	-Core Activation (inclusive of transverse abdominus, multifidi, pelvic floor muscles as well as psoas.

ϖ	-Maintaining core activation while dissociating the limbs

ϖ	-Planks

ϖ	-Bridges

ϖ	-Quadraped

ϖ	-Bridges

ϖ	-Squats

It doesn’t stop there. It highlights what you NEED to know about crunches, Russian Twists and Scorpions before having your clients do them again.



Need some more information before you buy?

Do you clients often say, “I am so tight”.  

Do you stretch them and they still feel tight?

ϖ	This DVD will highlight many reasons why our clients are tight and how it the importance of understanding global and local muscles of the core.
ϖ	It will show how teaching proper core activation can decrease that feeling of “tightness”


Do you work with your clients on proper breathing?

If you don’t, you should.  Not sure how? 

 This DVD will show you how to:

ϖ	assess your clients breathing
ϖ	how to cue them to breath differently 
ϖ	how this will allow them to activate their core, stay connected and decrease feeling of tightness.

The key to stability is proper core control.  Proper core control potentially:

ϖ	allows for increased ranges of motion
ϖ	decreases pain
ϖ	will increase distal strength
ϖ	decrease fatigue
ϖ	creates higher levels of energy

Often times when working with a client they will compensate to complete an exercise that is challenging.  It is important to recognize compensation patterns and to change the exercise for the client or to cue the client out of the pattern.  Poor patterning increases the likelihood of future breakdowns of joint and muscles.  

This DVD will teach you how to recognize poor patterning during:
ϖ	Core activation
ϖ	Psoas activation
ϖ	Basic dissociation exercises
ϖ	Plank patterns
ϖ	Quadraped exercises
ϖ	Bridge progressions
ϖ	Squat patterns
Not only will you learn how to recognize poor patterns you will learn how to cue your client out of the patterning so they will achieve success with the exercises and allow you to progress them to higher level exercises. 

If you need more information before you buy please continue to read, because these DVDs offer even more information.

I never new that which seemed like such insignificant exercises could teach me so much.

We CANNOT load clients up with heavy weights if they are unstable with just their body weight.  

Have you ever seen a person standing on one leg trying to do shoulder presses and he/she is wobbling all over the place?  Why does he or she wobble?  Because that person is unstable.  Chances are if you took the dumbbells away that person would still be unstable.   I don’t know about you but, I don’t want to train my clients in patterns that create more instability.  


Complete Core Conditioning will break down each exercise to allow you to:

ϖ	Assess your client’s ability to perform the exercise
ϖ	Cue your client properly no matter what kind of learner they are
ϖ	Identify compensation patterns your client will use 
ϖ	Cue your client out of compensation patterns
ϖ	Up or down grade the exercise to match your client’s skill level
ϖ	Progress you client through the exercise

From start to finish you will learn:

ϖ	Functional anatomy of the core 
ϖ	Importance of local vs. global muscles
ϖ	How over dominance of global muscles causes tightness
ϖ	Importance of teaching proper breathing patterns
ϖ	Core activation

Frequently Asked Question:

How long is the DVD?

You get two DVDs each is approximately 60 minutes long.  The first DVD will highlight the functional anatomy, discuss local vs global, breathing, and neutral spine.  The second will take show in detail the exercises listed above.  How to set your client up, cue your client, how to identify compensation patterns.

How do I know these DVDs are right for me?

If you are a trainer and your client wants to work on their core, (which I don’t know may clients that don’t), if you work with clients who are unstable, complain of pain, demonstrate patterns of dysfunction and you are not sure how to help them.

What is the film quality?
This was filmed in an area of good lighting.  When you very specific exercises were being filmed they were captured by a zoom lens.  Each section is followed up with a slide that highlights the steps of each exercise.
