• “Scientific research cannot support the
novel systems that pop up in magazines
and on the Internet at an astounding rate.
You will do well to ignore fads and follow
well-tested approaches validated
both by research and in competition.” –
Tudor Bompa

TRADITION
• 1960s Universal and Nautilus -
resistance machines to isolate
muscles.
• Isolation of body parts, high training
volumes, moderate to high intensity.
![Page 4: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
AESTHETICS
• The aesthetics of bodybuilding has not
optimized performance for coaches,
athletes and individuals looking for
better function.
![Page 5: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
FUNCTION
• Train movements not muscles.
• Mimic the movement one is trying to
improve - enhances coordination,
rhythm and timing of a movement,
provides greater transfer from the
training to the target activity.
![Page 6: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
COSMETIC VS. FUNCTION
• Laboratory movement vs. Real move
• Artificial moves vs. Natural
• Rigid structure vs. Flexible
• Isolating muscles vs. Integration
• No gravity vs. Gravity
• No proprio vs. Proprio
• Link-like vs. Chain-like
![Page 7: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
PERIODIZATION
• Structuring the
client’s
program:
anatomical adaptation,
hypertrophy,
maximum strength
muscle definition
transition (rest)
![Page 8: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ONE REP
• Load Unload

Over Time, Progress from:
• Easy to Hard
• Simple to Complex
• Body weight before External Weight
• Stable before Unstable
![Page 10: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
DURING THE WORKOUT
• Rotational before Linear
• Integrated movement patterns before basic
• Internal before External
• Power before Endurance
![Page 11: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• I. Safe Strength training requires integrated,
multi-planar movement involving acceleration,
deceleration, and stabilization.
• PICK UP CHAIR NO ONE WATCHING
• OVERLOAD PRINCIPLE, GOLGI
TENDON ORGAN
![Page 12: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Properly accomplished, resistance
training produces concentric force,
isometric stabilization, and eccentric
deceleration force in all three planes
• CONCENTRIC, ACTIN/MYOSIN
• ISOMETRIC – POSTURAL SWAY
• ECCENTRIC, LENGTHENING
![Page 13: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Tools
• b. Strength training is not an isolated event in a
single plane of motion
• BODY WEIGHT, TUBING, AIREX MATS,
FOAM ROLLS, BODY BLADE, CABLES,
STABILITY BALLS, MEDICINE BALLS,
BANDS, BODY WEIGHT, FREE WEIGHT,
DYNA DISCS, DUMBBELLS, FOCUS MITTS

BREATHING
• “The Valsalva maneuver associated
with breath-holding plays a vital role in
increasing the intra-abdominal pressure
to support and stabilize the lumbar
spine during heavy lifting.” - Mel Siff
![Page 15: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
INTER- INTRAMUSCULAR
COORDINATION
– c. Neuromuscular efficiency is the ability of
all muscles in the kinetic chain (agonists,
antagonists, synergists, stabilizers.
– TIMING - SERAPE EFFECT
– THROWING A BALL, SERVING A BALL
– TENNIS ELBOW? MUSCLES WEAK
– SHOULDER PROBLEMS, ABS
![Page 16: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
FLEXIBLE STRENGTH
• d. All muscles operate within a muscle
action spectrum
• STEP OFF CURB, HAMSTRING
• INCREASE AI STRENGTH TO
INCREASE ROM
• INCREASE ROM WITHOUT
STRENGTH = INJURY
![Page 17: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
OPTIMAL RANGE OF MOTION
• Length-tension relationship- length at
which muscle produces greatest force.
• Optimal muscle length at which actin
and myosin filaments in the sarcomere
have the greatest degree of overlap
• 1.2 X Resting length: Myosin to make
maximal amount of connections with
actin.
![Page 18: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
BALANCE AND IMBALANCE
• e. You may be very strong and flexible,
but if the nervous system isn’t activating
all of your muscles correctly - imbalance
• ROUND SHOULDERS, PELVIC TILT,
“MUSCLE HEAD” - NO TRANS-
VERSE, FRONTAL PLANE MOVE
• STRONG MUSCLES-STRONGER,
WEAK MUSCLES-ATROPHY
![Page 19: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
PREVENTING INJURY
• 1. FOOT PROBLEM ….
• 2. GLUTEUS GETS WEAK…
• 3. HIP FLEXOR HYPERTONIC
• OVERUSE INJURIES - MAY BE
PROBLEM OTHER THAN SPECIFIC
AREA; JOINTABOVE OR BELOW
INJURY SITE.

BALANCE OF STRENGTH AND
FLEXIBILITY
• OLDER ADULTS SAGITTAL, LOSE
FRONTAL AND TRANSVERSE; DOC
SAYS, “DON’T TWIST”.
• TIGHT MUSCLES CAN’T WORK IN ALL
PLANES, INHIBIT ANTAGONIST.
• ABS WEAK, BACK MUST WORK
HARDER.
![Page 21: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
STRETCH OR STRENGTHEN?
• INCREASE ABS STRENGTH =
INCREASE ROM OF SIT AND REACH
• DON’T STRETCH PRIOR TO
ACTIVITY = LESS CROSS BRIDGING
• KNEE “GIVES OUT” BODY
RECOGNIZES NOT GOOD POSITION
![Page 22: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Abs
• ABS DECELERATE MOTION IN THREE
PLANES, THEN ACCELERATE
• ABS DECELERATE SPINAL EX.
• HIP EXTENSION - ABS - THROW
![Page 23: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
POSTURE
• Screening fundamental movements will
demonstrate significant limitations and
asymmetries, and will also help to narrow
the focus of problem areas within the
human body.
![Page 24: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
POSTURE
• Correction of posture takes precedence
over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such
as men wanting to do bench press and
biceps curls, and women over indulging in
abductor and adductor exercises.
![Page 25: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
KNEE OVER TOE?
• SQUAT -
• High arch: knee goes varus (lateral)
• Flat foot: knee goes valgus (medial)
![Page 26: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ASSESSMENTS
• Muscle imbalance findings must influence
exercise selection. The alternative is
chronic, re-occurring muscle and joint
injury
• The sport or activity being performed will
serve as the foundation from which your
biomechanical assessment determines
exercises selected
![Page 27: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
GOALS
• Client goals will influence exercise
selection, BUT SHOULD NOT BE THE
SOLE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND THE
SELECTION PROCESS
• A CLIENT’S GOALS MAY NOT BE THE
BEST THING FOR THEIR
MUSCULOSKELETAL HEALTH
![Page 28: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
RE-INJURY
• Orthopedic injury will certainly hamper
exercise selection. The client presenting
incomplete recovery from injury can be very
easily re-injured.
• THIS IS THE GREATEST PREDICTOR
OF INJURY
![Page 29: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
STABILITY
• f. Stabilization is as important as
strength.
• BODY SENSES STABILITY, IT
RELAXES (E.G. STAND ON ICE)
![Page 30: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
STRENGTH AND STABILITY
• WEAK MUSCLES = INSTABILITY, STRONG
MUSCLES OVERWORKED = PAIN
• STABLE ROM - BE SURE YOU HAVE
THE STRENGTH
![Page 31: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
COMPENSATION
• II. KINETIC CHAIN CONCEPTS
• a. If one muscle is weak (gluteus
maximus) then other muscles (erector
spinae and hamstrings) compensate -
synergistic dominance.
• YOU WILL GET TO REFRIGERATOR
• WE ARE COMPENSATION MASTERS
![Page 32: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
HOLISTIC APPROACH TO
TRAINING
• ‘ITIS’ HAS A MUSCULAR ROOT – (EG
PATELLAR TENDINITIS) LIGAMENT
XITY CAN EXEMPLIFY WEAK
• MUSCLES – ANKLE SPRAIN
• GLUTEUS MEDIUS WEAK, GLUTEUS
MAXIMUS IS OVERWORKED, TONIC.
• PAIN NOT ALWAYS WHERE WE THINK IT
IS, KNEE PROBLEM FROM FOOT
![Page 33: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
STRETCH TIGHT MUSCLES
• b. If one muscle is tight (psoas) than the
functional antagonists (gluteus
maximus, transverse abdominus,
internal oblique, multifidus, and deep
erector spinae) demonstrate decreased
neural drive and delayed onset.
![Page 34: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
STRETCH OR STRENGTHEN?
• PLANTAR FASCITIS LEADS TO
OVERWORKED HIP FLEXOR
• TRAPS TIGHT STRETCH?
STRENGTHEN SERRATUS ELEVATE
SCAPULA

PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD
• c. Proper exercise progression is
important when designing a safe
strength-training program. The
integrated continuum utilizes the
following concepts for progression-
![Page 36: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
SMART STAGES
Slow to fast
Simple to complex
Static to dynamic
Correct execution to increased
intensity
Body weight before external weight
![Page 37: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
STRENGTHEN THE RIGHT
MUSCLES
• PREPARE THE BODY FOR WHAT WE
ASK IT TO DO
• PROGRESSIVE EXERCISE CAN
MAKE US DYSFUNCTIONAL
• CHIROPRACTOR WEEKLY BECAUSE
MUSCLES AREN’T HOLDING
![Page 38: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
FLEXIBLE STRENGTH
• STRENGTH + FLEXIBILITY =
MARTIAL ARTIST; DANCERS
INJURED
• IF TIGHT BICEPS, WEAK TRICEPS
![Page 39: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
TWEAKING THE PROGRAM
• PAIRED EXERCISE -SUPERSETS
• PERIODIZATION PRINCIPLES
• DEVELOP A FOUNDATION FIRST
• ADEQUATE REST INTERVALS
![Page 40: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
FIND THE RIGHT ANGLE
• 48-72 HOURS REST BETWEEN
SESSIONS
– d. Simply stated, no muscle works alone to
produce movement.
– ALTER ROM ON AN EXERCISE TO STAY
BELOW PAIN? DUMBBELLS
![Page 41: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
BALANCE THE BODY
• BODY STAYS IN STRONG ROM
• STRONG MUSCLES STAY STRONG,
WEAK STAY WEAK
• 2 MUSCLES DOING WORK OF 3 =
PAIN, ALL MUSCLES WORK NO PAIN
![Page 42: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
ANTAGONIST MUSCLE
GROUPS
• e. In order to properly accelerate and
decelerate joint motion in all directions it
is necessary to have opposing prime
movers or muscles that act opposite of
each other.
• TIB ANTERIOR/GASTROC
• QUAD/HAM
![Page 43: Safe Strength · 2020-01-03 · POSTURE •Correction of posture takes precedence over aesthetic, gender driven exercises such as men wanting to do bench press and biceps curls, and](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022043012/5fa93bd36618a212752a7de6/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
AGONIST/ANTAGONIST
• ABS/QL
• CHEST/BACK
• ROTATOR CUFF EXERCISES, IF ONE
IS WEAK AND ONE IS TOO
STRONG?
• “I NEED TO STRETCH HAMS” – NO
YOU NEED TO STRENGTHEN QUAD

POWER TRAINING
• III. ECCENTRIC PLYO POWER, IS IT
SAFE?
a. The speed in which the eccentric
force occurs following a concentric force
is also important to athletic
performance.

SPECIFICITY OF TRAINING
• IV. GET READY TO RUMBLE
• Most athletes have a hard time
understanding sports specific training.
• WHERE IS THE BODY
VULNERABLE? PROTECT IT
• MUSCULAR ENDURANCE SPECIFIC
– PIANIST CAN’T RUN A MILE

TO WEAR SHOES OR NOT
• Modern running shoes reduce
sensory feedback, apparently
without diminishing injury-inducing
impact–a process Robbins and Gouw
(1991) described as the "perceptual
illusion" of athletic footwear. A

ARE SHOES GOOD OR BAD?
• “Once the natural foot structures are
weakened by long-term footwear use,
people have to rely on the external
support of the footwear, but the
support does not match that
provided by a well functioning foot” -
Yessis

NEURAL BRAIN POWER
• The best way to improve muscle power is
to train with faster movements. There are
several reasons for this difference, one of
which is the brain. It seems that our brains
organize fast and slow movements
differently and may be evidence for neural
adaptation.

POWER LIFTING
• STARTING METHODS
– Static Start.
– Unprestretched Static Start. Hands
gripping the bar, body fixed in typical fairly
upright starting position, lifter applies a well
controlled, steady upward pulling force.
– Prestretch Static Start. Hands gripping
bar, butt/hips raised, lifter slowly lowers butt,
pretenses all relevant muscles and starts a
well-controlled upward pull.

POWER LIFTING
– Dive Start from Standing Position. Hands
not on bar, lifter aims grip at bar and tries to
pull the bar rapidly off the platform.
– Dive Start from Crouching ("Get Set")
Position. Hands on the bar, butt high, lifter
dips the hips suddenly, strongly
prestretches the quads, glutes etc and tries
to pull the bar rapidly upwards.

POWER LIFTING
– Rocking or Bouncing Start. Hands on the
bar, the lifter powerfully ‘bounces’ the butt
up and down for one or more repetitions in
an attempt to strongly prestretch all muscles
directly connected with the pull, such as the
glutes, hamstrings and quadriceps. Russian
research has shown that a quick double
prestretching dip tends to give the best
results, but that timing of the bounces is
vital.

POWER SEQUENCE
• Jump squats/push throws are
exercises that requires
jumping/throwing (a pressing motion
with a release of the resistance) with an
external load (– i.e. medicine ball ) of
low to moderate intensity (10-40% of 1
RM), which will depend on the level of
the client.

POWER LIFTING
The parts of Olympic lifts with the highest
power outputs:
• 2nd pull – bar moving from knees to chest–
• The jerk
• If power output is the main focus of your
training then performing the full version of
the Olympic lifts may not be necessary.

COMPLEX TRAINING
• Complex training is the combined use
of a high intensity (85-100%) strength
exercise (squat, bench, etc.) followed
by a low intensity, high-speed
exercise or a plyometric exercise.An
example of complex training would be
performing squats followed by jump
squats.
