JAMS. Joint alignment and muscle sequencing

Description

Personal trainers must have a wide array of exercises, releases, and modalities at their disposal in order to properly address the evolving needs of their current and future client base. In this regard, one of the most effective tools available is joint alignment and muscle sequencing (JAMS) training circuits, which are designed to address individual metabolic, biomechanical, physiological, and therapeutic needs. JAMS circuits are based on modalities that integrate and incorporate several of the best and most accessible concepts in the field of health and wellness into practical training techniques. JAMS: Joint Alignment and Muscle Sequencing details how JAMS circuits can increase metabolism through muscle fiber activation, decrease injury risk through proper movement mechanics, and provide therapeutic response by redirecting joints and muscles to their proper settings.
