1 Day Special Running Resiliency Course - Johannesburg, SA

Course Overview

The 1 day course is our highly practical slimmed down version of our 2 day Running Resiliency Course. We focus on creating and modifying running training plans, gait assessment and modification and exercise prescription.

Running injury assessment, gait analyses, running biomechanics and running injury treatment are unnecessarily complicated. The research in the area is vast but unfortunately the clinically applicability is poorly delineated. The aim of this course is to provide a pathway and clinical reasoning framework for the therapist to work with runners and endurance athletes of all abilities while applying the best evidence available.

Course Themes

The biopsychosocial model of care is currently the best framework we have for treating athletes. Typically, running injury management will focus on the tiny and irrelevant biomechanical features of running and will ignore other factors that create resiliency and allow you to best manage running injuries.

Upon the completion of the course the therapist will feel confident in:

- analysing and modifying the run training programs for injured and non-injured runners

- performing a running gait assessment, modifications and re-education to keep runners running

- symptom modification techniques that are specific to injured runners

- understanding the risk factors for running injury and how they can be modified

-prescribing "Comprehensive Capacity" exercises for both injury management and performance

- "cognitive restructuring" - how to use motivational interviewing and pain science principles to motivate behavioural change in the injured runner to create higher levels of self efficacy and resiliency

Bonus - All participants receive access to the 16 hour Online Version of Running Resiliency
