Strength and Conditioning Program In North York

Improve Sport Performance With Our North York Strength and Conditioning Program

At CPC, we use The Functional Range Systems Internal Strength model for the optimization of Strength and Conditioning. The model considers these 4 truths of human movement:

• All movements are created internally

• All movements are executed internally

• Internal constraints (i.e. pain) are always the first to overcome

• External displays of movement (lifting weights) are an expression of internal function

Since its inception, strength training has prioritized external goals (i.e. squatting 300lbs) as the main determinant of success. Displays of strength, speed, and agility have been emphasized often at the expense of the internal system (the athlete) performing said displays. The result has created a history of impressive performance feats, occurring on a backdrop of increasing rates of sports injuries.

At CPC, we re-focus sport strength and conditioning training inputs to cultivate specific performance adaptations based on the specific needs of the athlete/person. First, it is important to determine joint function and capacity with a thorough athletic assessment. With this understanding, we can then focus the strength and conditioning training to apply forces to the tissues to stimulate specific tissue adaptations. It is important that these adaptations can then be synthesized by the nervous system to solve specific problems or tasks requiring the generation and discharge of force, for example, during sport or an athletic event.

What does this mean and how is this output in sport performance?
After your strength and conditioning assessment at our North York clinic your joint and tissue requirements, based on your needs and goals for your sport or life, are identified. A program is then designed for your sport and performance needs relative to your individual goal.

The strength and conditioning program is unique and evolving. It is a progressive and periodized program that includes multiple phases with specific force inputs to the tissues that work towards your end performance goals. You will be shown the program, with the opportunity to record the exercises, to do them independently or with the support of one of our highly trained team members.
