Procedos Power training does not have to be technically advanced Our mission at Procedos is to create exercises to REINFORCE and maximize power production. Acquiring power is the ultimate goal, and the other elements are developed as part of getting power. Some of these elements are BALANCE, STABILITY, FLEXIBILITY, STRENGTH, COORDINATION, and ENDURANCE. When designing REINFORCE exercises that demand and develop power, we have many several strategies we can use to ensure that the exercises are well-suited for the individual’s needs. We can change the DISTANCE (IROM-MROM). We can POSITION the feet with 50% weight distribution to make it easier. We can change the LOAD to maintain a fast rate. We can change the DIRECTION. We can take...
HOW CAN WE UNLOAD MOVEMENTS? One of the most vital aspects of our exercises is the ability to regress them. Since many movements in our system are authentic but not often conditioned, they sometimes need to be unloaded (restored) before loaded (reinforced). In our restore exercises it is common that we use unloading strategies to get the body to move more efficiently. When unloading the body with external support, the body tends to give us more motion. Since motion ability is the essence of all movements, it is important to understand this concept. Motion is also the key to stability, When we have gained new motion with our restore exercises and unloading strategies, we have created an opportunity to reinforce...
Procedos sees each INDIVIDUAL as a WHOLE with individual nuances, history and unique asymmetries. Only when we understand the needs of the individual and how these correlate with the principles of nature can we develop specific, individual interventions. Through this process, the ultimate goal is to increase health, an individual FUNCTIONAL health that is unique to the individual. This approach differs from the concept that the organism is a mechanical object, we believe in a neurobiological model - that the body is a self-regulating system. Four primary tissues in the body Epithelial tissue that covers the body's surfaces. Protection, excretion and absorption Muscle - tissue contraction Nerve - tissue for sensitivity and innervation Connective tissue (CT) - support, nutrition, protection,...
Procedos purpose with Restore exercises is to gain motion potential. More motion in a joint will lead to other recruitment potential for muscles. Changes in recruitment of muscles lead to the potential for movement variability. Restore Exercises are characterized by low-loading (only bodyweight or less) and slow dynamic movements. When restrictions are found, the goal is to work as close to the restriction as possible without going into the restricted angle/depth. Work around the problem, - not in the problem. Procedos Platform 9™ provides a framework for measurements and external cues. This makes it easy to track progress in movement ranges, perception of stretch load and so on. It is vital to understand the individual aspect of restrictions of...
Strength and conditioning The purpose with reinforce exercises is to load motion in respect to what is functional for the individual. There is evidence for movement pattern specificity, but we must also think about the general health of the body, for which the loading parameters are often unspesific. Reinforce exercises are often characterized by a high rate and/or external load to the tissues. They are also performed directly after we have restored motion. While doing the movement, we are looking for is working without load and with speed we typically load the movement. This is when we must take in consideration what the loading mechanism itself does to the desired movement. Duration: While working to reinforce exercises, we typically...
