Resistance Training in the Adolescent Population
1 hour
Free Registration for Orthopaedic Division Members! See details below!
Description:
This webinar will review current recommendations for physical activity for youth and adolescents with a focus on resistance training recommendations.
The discussion will be framed through the long-term athletic development model with different training modalities appropriate for each age. We will consider the best evidence for dosing of resistance training as well as the role it can play in the rehabilitation setting.
Best practices advocate that muscle-strengthening activities should be an integral part of athletic development and this course will lay out a framework to implement this into a training program.
