Omschrijving

Prescribe movement with a focus on both immediate results and long-term health.

Developing realistic, sustainable, and adaptable client workout programs can seem like an overwhelming task. Prescribing Movement as Medicine: The Professional's Guide to Exercise for Health and Longevity serves as a manual explaining the why and how behind building an exercise program to improve health and longevity.

Offering practical and tested methods for helping clients exercise consistently and effectively, this is a great resource for anyone building client programs, especially for clients who are not already active and who need help in establishing exercise as a habit. Dozens of ready-to-use exercises, drills, and assessments are provided:

18 mobility and flexibility drills
37 warm-up drills
7 assessments
34 power training exercises
67 strength training exercises
2 sample programs

Exploring physical activity, health, and chronic disease, this book initially establishes the need for lifelong thoughtful movement. Then it breaks down the components of a training program that are necessary to maintain optimal function as clients age.

Case studies featuring the author's clients give insight into how concepts in the book are applied in a real-world context. Readers will explore the importance of including a variety of movement types in programming, including everyday physical activity, mobility and flexibility, power training, strength training, and cardiovascular training. These come together to make this an actionable resource for trainers and coaches who share the goal of creating engaging and flexible training programs for clients.

Prescribing Movement as Medicine is designed to aid trainers and coaches in helping clients build healthy, sustainable exercise habits to last a lifetime.
