Training Fascia: Applications in Program Design

Using Applied Science in Fascial Training

Emerging research continues to further our understanding of the function of fascial tissue in movement—and we’re seeing evidence that training fascia elicits gains in mobility and stability, which make up the foundation of efficient movement.

In this video training taught by Lauren Shroyer, MS, ATC, ACE Senior Director of Product Development, you will discover the latest research findings of fascia and how they are utilized in an application-based setting. You will learn how to apply exercises and stretches that encourage better mobility, stability and elasticity. By understanding how to train fascia effectively, you will be able to help clients of any background, whether they are looking to improve their general fitness or seeking to make performance gains.

Upon completion, you will be able to:

• Describe the emerging research findings around fascial training
• Understand when mobility exercises or static stretching is most applicable to your client’s needs
• Apply exercises and stretches that facilitate better mobility, stability and elasticity
• Design a program that includes an emphasis on fascial training
