The popularity of fitness and personal trainers has grown in recent years, as a result of increased public interest in health and fitness. This growing interest requires trainers to continuously develop and update their knowledge in order to offer effective and modern training techniques. Innovations such as the integration of technology, digital training plans and new nutritional principles require trainers to keep up to date with the latest trends and research. The ability to adapt and apply new knowledge in practice not only improves the professionalism of trainers but also ensures that clients receive the best possible service to help them achieve their goals. BUILDING UNBREAKABLE ATHLETES (EN) is new education
For the first time in Lithuania, international Stride Europe master trainer and teacher, RSCA Women’s head of performance, movement coach Davy Provoost (Belgium), will share the latest knowledge and trends in coaching at the seminar “BUILDING UNBREAKABLE ATHLETES”.
Focus will mainly be providing information on how to optimize sustainable health and athleticism with multi-directional athletes so they can reach their full potential. How do we prepare our clients to be resilient for the stressors of life and daily sport? With movement based strength training, the idea is to develop a strong resilient human body that is capable to tolerate the unique demands of everyday tasks in daily life and sport and to develop a smart intelligent nervous system with variable motor tasks.
We’ll dive deep into why it’s important to add mechanical variability to put different lines of stress through our body so it’s strong and resilient in all positions.
Davy says “I want my clients to thrive in life, perform optimally in their sport and increase their health
span so they can perform better and longer in all areas of their life. My end goal? Improving resiliency and building capacity to maximize athletic performance and to coach my athletes to be the architect of their own health”.
Seminar duration: 10:00-18:00
Registration: 9:30-10:00
Lunch break: 13.00 – 14.00

PROGRAM:
Day 1 (11th of October):
10:00 – 11:30 Presentation : Movement Based Strength
How do we prepare our clients to be resilient for the stressors of life and daily sport? With movement based strength training, the idea is to develop a strong resilient human body that is capable to tolerate the unique demands of everyday tasks in daily life and sport and to develop a smart intelligent nervous system with variable motor tasks. We’ll dive deep into why it’s important to add mechanical variability to put different lines of stress throughout our body so it’s strong and resilient in all positions.
11:30 – 13:00 Practical : Movement Based Strength
13:00-14:00 Lunch
14:00-15:30 Dynamic Systems Theory For Athletic Performance . What are the concepts regarding this theory? What are the attractors we want to work with, what are the fundamental principles and its implications for athletic performance and rehabilitation.
15:30-16:30 Multi-Directional Power for Life and Sport Performance. Power training is not only for athletes but also for the general population who wants to age well. Since we lose power before strength as we age, it’s important to think about the idea of how to add power training into your clients program. We want to develop a resilient human body that is powerful in an omni-directional way so it prepared to handle the stressors in daily life or during a sport endeavor.
16:30-18:00 Putting the dynamic systems theory into practice (the hip lock)
The theory behind the ‘Frans Bosch theory’ is anything but simple. However applying the exercises and learning to build them up allows us to experience what our athlete needs to feel. Using various attractors, we pave the way for coordination-based training.
Day 2 (12th of October):
10:00 – 11:30 The 7 Step Activation Sequence.
The best ability is capability. Hereby we go through a 7 step process with different strategies to promote circulation, enhance neuromuscular recruitment and enhanced sensory feedback to prepare your clients for a specific bout of exercise and to make them feel ready to go!
11:30-13:00 Putting the dynamic systems theory into practice (ankle stifness)
13:00 – 14:00 Lunch
14:00 – 15:30 Programming exercise for brain health and performance.
Optimizing brain health is important for everyone. Hereby we will dive deeper into the 4 domains of cognition and how to identify which cognitive functions are most important to your sport and how to integrate dual tasking in an exercise program for enhancing various brain functions to age well and increase performance.
15:30-18:00 How to make sure your athlete is ready for a return to play
Too often, we see certain injuries reoccurring far too quickly. What criteria must your athlete meet before getting the green light to compete again? Based on clinical experience and through several case studies, we’ll dive deeper into this critical topic!
