About the Product
Resistance Training Instruction: Lower Body demonstrates
exercises from the hip down. Since the hip’s primary function is to
work with the knee and ankle during compound movements, numerous
variations of squats, presses, and lunges are presented. Several
exercises that isolate lower-body movements are also included, as
these more specific exercises may be equally important for
accomplishing a variety of goals.
Developed and hosted by resistance-training expert Everett Aaberg,
the
Resistance Training Instruction DVD Series walks
trainers through the steps of instructing clients during resistance
training. The DVDs demonstrate the proper techniques for the
participant and proper instructional methods for the fitness
professional.
The three DVDs, which cover the lower body, trunk, and upper body,
allow trainers to watch and learn the proper exercise and training
techniques for all of the exercises in the book
Resistance
Training Instruction and many more exercises not included in
the book.
Targeted muscles are identified for each exercise, providing
trainers with information about functional anatomy. Plus, a
time-coded program log makes it easy to find specific
exercises.
With the
Resistance Training Instruction DVD Series, you
will learn how to teach resistance training so that your clients
use the proper techniques to get the most out of their
exercises.
Human Kinetics DVDs are coded for universal playback and can be
played in all regions of the world.
