Analytical and
Segmental Muscular Strengthening of the
Abdominal Muscles and the Thoracic
Diaphragm
The abdominals (obliques, transverse,
pyramidals and rectus abdominus) and the
thoracic diaphragm need to be properly
trained. These muscles are not only
functional but aesthetic. That is why
students will learn hundreds of
exercises that will specifically target
these muscles.
Seminar Outline:
- technical analysis
of the movements which are the basis of
muscle strengthening
- learning to
perfect the movement (progression
factors)
- how to avoid
injury with the appropriate preparation
- types of
cool-downs for better recovery
- dietary factors
- quality effort in
terms of strength, volume, power, speed,
resistance, endurance and fitness
maintenance
- planning training
sessions
- multiple
strengthening methods
- muscular
re-education programs
- sports preparation
programs
Analytical and
Segmental Muscular Strengthening of the
Lower Limbs
There are hundreds of specific
exercises which can solicit the
proximal, distal, medial, lateral,
middle, superficial or deep portions of
each muscle (i.e. proximal psoas or
distal tibialis anterior) in the lower
extremities. The thorough details that
are covered in this class will allow for
an understanding of the numerous
exercises that target specific areas of
the lower limb.
Seminar Outline:
- technical analysis
of the movements which are the basis of
muscle strengthening
- learning to
perfect the movement (progression
factors)
- how to avoid
injury with the appropriate preparation
- lower extremity
warm-ups
- quality effort in
terms of: strength, volume, power,
speed, resistance, endurance and fitness
maintenance
- planning training
sessions with respect to time
availability
- strengthening
methods for all the lower extremity
muscles
- muscular
re-education programs
- sports preparation
programs
Analytical and
Segmental Muscular Strengthening of the
Upper Limbs and the Trunk
The large muscles (latissimus dorsi,
trapezius, rhomboids, quadratus
lumborum…) need to be trained with a lot
of specific movements in relation to the
specific quality of training that you
need (strength, volume, power, speed,
resistance, endurance and fitness
maintenance) for each muscle group. The
spinal muscles need to be trained to
improve their ability to provide
postural support. There are also
numerous, yet specific exercises which
can solicit the proximal, distal,
medial, lateral, middle, superficial or
deep portions of each muscle (i.e.
deltoids or thumb flexor) in the upper
extremities. Students will learn
hundreds of exercises.
Seminar Outline:
- technical analysis
of the movements which are the basis of
muscle strengthening
- learning to
perfect the movement (including
progression factors)
- how to avoid
injury with the appropriate preparation
and warm-ups
- quality effort in
terms of: strength, volume, power,
speed, resistance, endurance and fitness
maintenance
- strengthening
methods for the upper extremities and
trunk muscles
- muscular
re-education programs
- sports preparation

How to Organize the
Education and the Progression of a
Global Movement (Tests, Adaptation,
Training, etc.) : The Squat
A complete analysis of the squat with
respect to the entire body. There are
over a hundred progressions that have to
be learned before a squat is completed
properly. This class will cover all of
these progressions and lead to a
fundamental understanding of the proper
method of progression leading to the
completion of a biomechanically sound
squat.
Seminar Outline:
- technical analysis
of the movements which are the basis of
the squat
- learning to
perfect the movement with a specific
focus on the progression factors
- how to avoid
injury with the appropriate preparation
and warm-ups
- quality effort in
terms of: strength, volume, power,
speed, resistance, endurance and fitness
maintenance
- muscular
re-education programs
- sports preparation
programs
Qualitative and
Quantitative Periodization
The focus of this class is to
understand quality (volume, strength,
power, speed, relaxation, resistance,
endurance, aesthetics, muscular
re-education and fitness maintenance)
and quantity (number of series,
repetitions and rest time). Numerous
exercises and movements will be used to
teach the proper progression that is
necessary to achieve specific goals.
Seminar Outline:
- quality: strength,
volume, power, speed, relaxation,
resistance, endurance and fitness
maintenance
- quantity:
repetitions, number of series (sets) and
rest time
