Force and Form Closure

2 HOURS ON-DEMAND MODULE WITH CERTIFICATE

Form and Force Closure creates an opportunity for the trainer to both ensure that the correct ingredients are selected when developing a strategy to help a client move better, pain free and developing a class plan for a number of clients simultaneously. 

Form closure is a skeletal framework that we all have. Understanding how both our environment impacts this structure and the forces placed upon it enables us to make more informed choices to the way that we exercise and methods that we use to help maintain its equilibrium. 

Force closure is impacted by the neuromuscular forces placed upon the structures around the pelvis.

Selecting techniques that have the balance of directional forces, ranges and planes of motion can be a daunting process. However, by understanding the principles of Force Closure, the trainer can not only select particular techniques that create balance within the client’s session plan, but also improve the sustainability of their client’s movement.
