Presentation Topic: "Start With Why-2024"

Why do we do what we do at MBSC? Why don't we do certain things? In the MBSC system, it's all about The Why.

As we learn, the "whys" may change, and, if they do, so do we.

Why do we foam roll? Is it controversial? Why are we still static stretching? Why don't we do crunches anymore?

The original Start With Why talk was 2015. Lets see what's changed in eight years.

Kevin Carr

Presentation Topic: "5 Fitness Facts That Could Save Your Life"

The Personal Trainer is the front-line health care practitioner.

As a coach, you have more contact and influence on the long-term health of your clients than any other medical professional.

So how can we look at our training as a means to improve both Life Span and Health Span?

How can we train to reduce heart disease and atherosclerosis?

How can training impact cancer risk?

What can we do from an exercise programming standpoint to reduce long-term disability and accidental falls?

How can we maintain our cognitive health as we grow older?

In this presentation, Kevin will go deep into the science and application of training to reduce disease and disability and, most importantly, give you practical training takeaways that you can immediately apply to your clients on Monday.

Dan McGinley

Presentation Topic: Training for Joint Health

Joint pain, such as arthritis, osteoarthritis, and bursitis, affects one in every five adults in the U.S.

Knowing how to preserve and improve your client's joint health is more important than ever.

In this talk, you’ll learn how the MBSC adult program trains joint health to keep our clients moving and feeling their best.

Jess Tollman

Presentation Topic: “Training the Brand New Client: A Coaching Approach”

Training someone brand new to the gym poses unique challenges. The gym can be an intimidating, overwhelming environment. Likewise, previously sedentary clients will likely lack body awareness and motor control.

As coaches, we can better serve brand new clients by utilizing both technique AND mindfulness in our coaching. We need to show clients not only the WHAT of movement, the desired body shapes, but also the HOW of movement, the intention and attention that allows them to achieve those shapes.

Clients who move with greater intent and awareness in the gym make more progress and have fewer setbacks. By blending technical and mindful coaching cues, we help our clients better internalize movement skills to become confident and competent movers for the long term.

Vinny Talluto

Presentation Topic: Client Intakes, Assessments & Programming

Discussing the essential elements of the intake process for new clients, an overview of our initial assessments, and how to incorporate all that information to build a training program.
