I have been asked to present at the BCRPA 2011 Conference.
I don’t have all the details but they have asked me to talk about muscle imbalances and SI joint post injury rehabilitation.
I will have more details soon.
All I know is it is Saturday, October 1, 2011.
It is at Capilano University in North Vancouver.

I have finalized a presentation in Burnaby for later this month.
It is for the Fitness Blitz 28.
There I am along with the other presenters on the flyer:
Here is the description of my session:
When we think of “Core”, we often think of the back, but this is only one of the core areas of the body. As a fitness professional, it is important to address all three core areas in the body. In this hands-on session, weightroom instructors and personal trainers will provide a progressive list of exercises that address all three core ares. You will leave this session with a good understanding of all the core areas of the body and a practical list of exercises that you can use with older adults to young, fit clients.

The importance of range of motion, strength and function when it comes to recovering from an injury is common knowledge. What is often overlooked yet equally important in ankle, knee and back injury recovery and exercise programs is balance; it is also an important part of an older adult exercise program to prevent falls and fractures.
- Key points to balance and its importance in an exercise and rehabilitation program, as well as fall prevention.
- An extensive list of balance exercises will be discussed, demonstrated and practiced.
- Demonstrations on how to evaluate, challenge and progress balance in clients using Reebok Core Boards, Extreme Balance Boards, rocker boards, wobble boards and discs.
DESCRIPTION:
I hope you are having, or had, a great Thanksgiving if you are from the USA.
I know the year is coming to an end and many times trainers, coaches, and therapists are looking for courses to attend in order to get great practical information and earn Continuing Education Credits before the year is up.
I do have a few courses coming up but before I talk about them, have a look and see what others have said about my courses.
In September, I had three great presentations at the BCRPA Fitness Conference.
The feedback was amazing.
.
I got an update from William Huhn on his trigger point courses.
He has been presenting them in New Westminster, Nanaimo, and now in Poland.
Mark down the dates that Bill will be in New Westminster:

HANDS-ON: Trigger Point for Lumbar, Hips, Buttocks and Groin Issues – April 17, 2011
Here is the very exciting update from Bill.
I have another interview with a presenter that is coming to Vancouver to share what he knows.
It is with Mike Robertson.

I am working.

I am working on my blog and writing.
The cool thing is I am doing this all in Maui.
More about that another time.
I am so happy that this conference is back and the feedback for the 2010 edition has been amazing.
It was nice to play a part in helping select and organize the presenter side of things. Being on the BCRPA Conference Committee was a great way of giving back to the fitness professionals from across BC.
I think the final numbers were about 450 participants for 50 sessions! WoW!
BCRPA is already planning next years. It will be September 16 to 18 or September 23 to 25. When I find out, I will let you know.
It was a crazy day on Saturday.
I was off to the BCFit’10 (BCRPA 2010 Fitness Conference).
It was a great day.
I presented the sessions for a total of 4 hours:
Start Teaching Shoulder Exercises that Help, Not Hurt
Shoulder injuries lead to pain, prevent people from doing the things they love and make the simples tasks painful. Many will lean to exercises to help them recover from their shoulder injury. But too often strength exercises will lead to slower recovery from a shoulder injury. What needs to be done before strengthening the shoulder is activating, building endurance and strengthening key muscles in the shoulder.
Core Exercises that Most Fitness Professionals Overlook
Many times fitness professionals focus only on the back when it comes to improving core stability. What is equally important it to look at the core stability of the hip. Poor activation, endurance and strength in the core of the hip leads to greater risk of injury to the lower back, hip and knee. In this conference session fitness professionals will learn a progressive exercise program that they can use with their personal trainer and group fitness clients in order to improve the core stability in their hip.

“Nearly 6 million people a year visit their doctor for shoulder pain, strains, dislocations or other shoulder related problems”
I am excited to be presenting at the BCRPA 2010 Conference.
I have seen a number of bloggers like Eric Cressey and Mike Robertson do random thoughts.
I thought I would give it a go as well.
A lot to times, random throughts are things that come to my mind that may interest you, it could be a quick answer to a question that someone emailed me, announcing an upcoming presentation, etc.
So here we go with the first Random Thoughts.
Enjoy!

I have been doing a few webi
nars of late:
Core Stability of the Hip Webinar and Exercise Program
Plantar Fasciitis Webinar and Exercise Program
Scapular Stabilization Webinar and Exercise Program
A common question I get asked is what is a fitness education webinar. Let me explain it to you.
A webinar is an online course, designed to share great new information with fitness professionals in a quick and convenient way.
When I was in Indianapolis earlier this year at the NCAA Final Four, I stopped by to
visit Mike Robertson and we did a quick video for you.
.
Mike and I did a quick interview for you so you have a better idea of what to expect from the courses/seminar.
Lets get to the interview.
