What is the Ball Combo 1 & 2 exercise?

- It is a stabilization exercise that targets the posterior chain, focuses mainly on the rotator cuffs and erector muscles of the spine. Also focuses solely on the movement of the scapula. - Primary Movers: Rotator Cuffs

What are some modifications of Ball Combo 1 (YTA)?

- The easier way is to slide between each movement instead of starting from the bottom position. Scooping underneath from the A position to the Y makes it easier. You can make this exercise more difficult by adjusting the ball position (more abdomen the easier) and having them drop their arms before going to each movement.

What is Enjoyment?

Enjoyment for many is the most important and often the most overlooked. It is pivotal to our long-term success that we engage in activities that we enjoy and that coincide with our likes and dislikes. If I hate to ride the bike, why would I make myself do 60 minutes of torture when I could put in my time on the rowing machine or treadmill. Enjoyment is directly associated with retention and results.

This will include the combination of SMR to break up adhesions and release tension in the muscles, then static stretching to elongate muscles identified as short and decrease neural drive to those identified as overactive.

What is the SMR Piriformis?

Foam rolling of the piriformis muscle. This muscle originates on the sacrum, goes across the butt and attaches to the greater trochanter of the femur.

What is Frequency?

What is Corrective Flexibility?

Increase joint ROM, improve muscle imbalances, and correct altered joint motion. Corrective flexibility includes self-myofascial release (foam roll) techniques and static stretching.

What is Intensity?

Intensity is the level of stressed placed on the body by an activity. The most common measure of this is by heart rate. You are able to evaluate what range your heart rate is in and make adjustments from there. For general health, working in an upper/moderate range would be recommended. This allows for a longer duration of exercise, and should not cause quick exhaustion. This would be by performing at 60-90 percent of maximum heart rate.

What are Progression exercises?

(KC) Goals and Adaptations in the Stabilization Level 1/2

Primary Adaptations: The Stabilization Level is made up of only one phase: Stabilization Endurance. In this phase individuals will train for the necessary adaptations to stabilize their bodies for prolonged periods of time in all three planes of motion. The primary adaptations of this level are increased stability, muscular endurance, control in all planes of motion, and coordination of movement.

(KC) Common Mistakes Made in the Stabilization Level

Programming Mistakes—Common programming mistakes in the Stabilization Level, as long as assessments have been correctly used, typically focus on not manipulating the acute variables correctly. This includes not properly measuring progressions, and thus designing a program that does not move the client forward. Conversely, it is also easy to progress a client too soon before the desired adaptations have occurred. It is also important to note that Phase 1 is 'Stabilization Endurance', meaning the combination of the two adaptations. If one is focused on without the other, the client will not be prepared to progress to the Strength Level.

Reactive Protocols: Reactive training in the Stabilization Level should not be confused with plyometric training. Rather, the intention is to develop good movement patterns and landing mechanics, so that more intense protocols can be implemented in later phases of training. Some exercises may also be used later in the Power Level; however, here they will be performed here with a slower tempo, and with 3-5 second holds between repetitions to stabilize the body.

(KC) Resistance Training Protocols in the Stabilization Level

Resistance Protocols: Resistance training at the Stabilization Level will focus on exercises that are performed in an unstable, yet controllable, environment. An example of this would be a dumbbell curl performed while standing on a foam pad or a balance plate. Tempo will be 4/2/1. With repetitions kept between 12 and 20 per set. Beginner clients may not be able to perform exercises in unstable environments, so they may need to be regressed accordingly to the highest levels of instability they can control.

Scientific Principles: The correct use and application of acute variables, as governed by the SAID principle, serves as the supporting scientific basis in the Stabilization Level. Depending on the client's fitness level, horizontal loading can be used to train form and technique, and correct muscle imbalances; or vertical loading can be used to greatly increase metabolic demand.

Cueing 11.1: Ball Combo 2

Setting Up: This exercise requires no weights and just the use of a stability ball. Your client must have an anchor at their feet especially for beginners. Advanced individuals won't need an anchor. Use a bench, the wall, or yourself holding their feet down. Starting Position: With your client's feet anchored, have them start in a kneeling position. Have them roll the ball towards their thighs and place their pelvic region on to the ball. Make sure they straighten out their knees, squeeze their glutes, keep their spine neutral and their head facing down before starting the exercise. If their body weight is too much for them to handle and they keep moving forward during the exercise, it is okay to move the stability ball more up in the abdomen area. Top Position Row: First movement will be a row position with the scapula fully retracted back. Make sure their head does not jut forward during this movement. Arms is in full pronated position and not externally rotated. From the row, the following position you will have your client externally rotate their arms bringing their arms in a lat pull down position. Top Position Press: The second movement will begin from the lat pull down position where the arms and shoulders are externally rotated. Make sure their scapulas are retracted and depressed. Have them perform a press bring their hands and arms over the head. You do not drop the hands to begin a new rep, instead you have the client perform the exercise backwards to reset the exercise. Lat pull down, internally rotate the shoulders and arms back down to row position, and dive arms back down. Make sure their posterior chain is in check before performing another repetition. If their lower back begins to arch you must get rid of it. Knees straight, glutes squeezed, core tucked in, spine in neutral position, scapula activated, and head facing down.

Cueing 11.1: Ball Combo 1 (YTA)

Setting Up: This exercise requires no weights and just the use of a stability ball. Your client must have an anchor at their feet especially for beginners. Advanced individuals won't need an anchor. Use a bench, the wall, or yourself holding their feet down. Starting Position: With your client's feet anchored, have them start in a kneeling position. Have them roll the ball towards their thighs and place their pelvic region on to the ball. Make sure they straighten out their knees, squeeze their glutes, keep their spine neutral and their head facing down before starting the exercise. If their body weight is too much for them to handle and they keep moving forward during the exercise, it is okay to move the stability ball more up in the abdomen area. Top Position Y: For the first movement, have your client perform a Y and externally rotate their thumbs. The goal of this exercise is to focus on maximum retraction of the scapula. Top Position T: For the second movement have them bring the arms straight down from the Y and bring it their arms up laterally. This movement should be similar to a rear deltoid fly so focus on retraction. Make sure to have them externally rotate their thumbs again. Top Position A: For the third movement, have your client bring the arms out like a cobra or as if they were running like an anime character. Make sure they try to keep their arms close to their body during this movement and if done properly their arms won't go all the really far back. If your client's arms go to far back they are no longer retracting the scapula instead they are tilting it forward causing an over extension of the deltoids. Again make sure to have their thumbs externally out.

**CHAPTER 10 OVERVIEW**

Stabilization is the first of the three levels of the OPT Model, and contains only one phase: Phase 1: Stabilization Endurance. It has the goal of increasing and maintaining optimal levels of stabilization for prolonged periods of time, while concurrently developing the highest levels of coordinated movement, good form/technique, and structural integrity. This is achieved through the basic acute variable manipulation of high repetitions partnered with controlled repetition tempos. Stabilization training is not just core training, but the systematic development of the local and global musculature systems to better stabilize and coordinate the movements of all joints. Since this level of OPT requires the activation and recruitment of numerous muscles, through high-volume exercise with extended time under tension, it not only is of great value for beginning clients with limited postural control, but it creates a high metabolic demand and can be beneficially used to burn additional calories. This is also the phase of the OPT model where protocols for correcting muscle imbalances will be implemented.

Cueing 11.2: SMR Piriformis

Starting Position: Have your client sit on their foam roller while leaning back into their hands. Legs are fully extended out. Have them bring one leg in slightly flexed, then the other. Top Position #1: One way to roll out the piriformis from the starting position is to put both legs together and have them lean slightly to one side. Roll up and down until they feel a tender point. When they do, stay at that position. Top Position #2: This position I prefer more. From the starting position, have your client bring their legs out a little more and cross one leg over the other. Similar to a figure 4. Progressing this would be to use the opposite arm of the crossed leg and pull it over a bit. This causes the posterior capsule to open up even more. *Whichever one feels the most deepest is the one your client should stick with. Getting too progressed into this could cause the muscle to not want to go back into a relaxed state, so wherever you feel it most is what's recommended.

What is Passive Flexibility?

Stretching that involves only noncontractile elements, such as ligaments, fascia, bursae, dura mater, and nerve roots.

Primary Adaptations

The Stabilization Level is made up of only one phase: Stabilization Endurance. In this phase individuals will train for the necessary adaptations to stabilize their bodies for prolonged periods of time in all three planes of motion. The primary adaptations of this level are increased stability, muscular endurance, control in all planes of motion, and coordination of movement.

Cardio Programming

The beginning cardiorespiratory goal of the Stabilization Level is to keep clients within heart rate Zone 1. This is knows as Stage I training, working toward the goal of clients completing 30 minutes of cardio without stopping while keeping their heart rate between 65% and 75% of maximum heart rate. This may be accomplished by some clients easier than others.

Scientific Principles

The correct use and application of acute variables, as governed by the SAID principle, serves as the supporting scientific basis in the Stabilization Level. Depending on the client's fitness level, horizontal loading can be used to train form and technique, and correct muscle imbalances; or vertical loading can be used to greatly increase metabolic demand.

Time Under Tension (TUT)

What is Time?

Time refers the length of time engaged in an activity. This component is typically measured in minutes and is dependent on the activity. A person doing wind sprints may only perform 10 seconds of activity at a time, while another person may be training for a marathon so is running for over 3 hours at a time. For general health it is recommended to perform at least 30 minutes a day. This could be broken up into segments such as three 10 minute segments, or two 15 minute segments. For improved fitness level it is recommended to perform 30-60 minutes per day.

—Core training in the Stabilization Level is focused on developing little to no movement of the LPHC during functional movements.
