Analyzing the effectiveness of the execution of the movement.
Detecting and correcting errors to improve the client/athlete’s future performance but also to prevent injury.
This is a partner assignment. Please identify one classmate who agrees to work on this with you. You DO NOT need to both select the same exercise. If you have selected the same exercise/movement, please note: Each partner will submit their own unique demonstration video. Each student will also prepare their own unique “coaching tips and cues.”

Always include foot/ankle position, postural alignment for the entire body. For example, where should the athlete/client focus their eyes.
Incorporate a breathing cue.
Include any/all considerations for injury prevention, when would you “Not” choose this exercise. Who is this exercise ideal for?
What is your progression? Rep scheme/sets? How do you make decisions on execution of this movement?

Sample Solution

The exercise I have chosen to analyze is the kettlebell swing. When executing this movement, it is important to ensure proper form and posture in order to prevent injury and maximize efficiency. Foot position should be shoulder width apart with toes pointed slightly outwards for stability; postural alignment should include engaging the core, keeping a neutral spine, and eyes focused forward. A breathing cue could be phrased as “inhale on the downswing, exhale when exploding up”; this will help keep the client/athlete focused on breathing correctly which helps create more power in their movements. As far as progression goes, a good starting point would be 3 sets of 10-12 reps with an appropriate weight for their level of fitness. The rep scheme can then increase over time as their strength improves or change based on their goals – if they are looking for muscular endurance they may transition into higher reps but lower weight while if they are looking for muscular hypertrophy they may switch to lower reps and higher weights.

When deciding how to execute this movement safely yet effectively all aspects must be taken into account such as mobility (i.e.: hip flexors), muscle imbalances (i.e.: glute dominant vs quad dominant), injury history (if any) etc., henceforth finally conclusively heretofore stated declared clearly defined documented recorded books papers accounts logs journals diaries notes directories registers archives sources information research analysis data statistics evidence reports studies surveys polls interviews eyewitness testimonies video recordings archival documents historical records legal precedents expert opinions professional analyses relevant authoritative third party input making sure cherry picked manipulated favor particular agenda interests though may seem attractive enticing option big picture perspective essential ensuring collective opinion always validates verifies individual claims conclusions deductions affirmations insights foresight judgement calls made from time time accordingly .
