Lesson Content
This module is designed to help the group exercise instructor gather various exercises to implement into the class format. The instructor will learn how to break down various movements and get a deeper understanding of all the intricate facets that go into formatting functional movement patterns and exercises. This module looks at the various starting positions, arm positions, speeds, and the five functional movements in life. From this information, the group exercise instructor will be able to develop endless variations of exercises that are appropriate and challenging for a variety of students.
