Fundamentals of Intensity Training
Status:Open
Mar 10, 2012 to Mar 10, 2012
Days: - - - W - - Sa
10:00am - 1:00pm
Intensity training is the cornerstone of program design and class design. Train with too little intensity and the body does not change. Train at too high an intensity and you risk injuring or worse yet, the risk of your client or participate dropping out of activity. The focus on this workshop is to understand the physiological adaptations to different forms of intensity and how you can implement the science into your classes and personal training sessions. If you truly want your clients or participants to achieve the results they desire you need to understand how intensity training works and be able to translate that into your classes and sessions. You will experience the power of intensity training yourself. This workshop is not all theory but how the theory applies and you will be given the opportunity to feel it for yourself.
