Episode 037: A Deep Dive Into The Quadriceps Muscles
Today’s podcast episode is a Deep Dive into the Quadriceps Muscles, where Neale and I add depth to and understanding to the four muscles of the anterior upper leg.
Learning the muscles can be seen as a chore,
Maybe you are just learning them for your exam, and see little benefit in knowing the detail for training clients in the future
Or maybe you are trying to learn the muscles from a list of facts in your manual, without applying it to movement; which is tough going.
Today we are going to explore the Quadriceps muscles in-depth, and not just the origins and insertions that you need to know for your exam, but joint actions and exercises that work the quads too.
Training clients is about MOVING the body, so you need to know about the body.
Not knowing about the muscles in-depth as a FitPro, is kinda like a Car Mechanic that doesn’t know anything about car parts.
You need to know the car parts in order to make the car work. You need to know the body parts and muscles in order to make the body move effectively.
In today’s FitPro Sessions podcast you’ll learn all the Quadricep facts you need to know for your Level 3 anatomy exam, and how to apply this knowledge to training clients and planning exercise programs.
