2026 NSCA Exercise Techniques & Progressions

Light Breakfast Provided

1. Identify performance-limiting factors through testing data and KPI analysis.
2. Apply targeted exercise methods and progressions to address specific performance deficiencies.
3. Evaluate the effectiveness of corrective interventions using measurable performance outcomes.

Lecture

Lecture

1. Explain how mobility, stability, and strength interact to optimize force transfer through the entire kinetic chain.
2. Identify common mobility restrictions and stability deficits that disrupt efficient kinetic chain sequencing and power production.
3. Develop weight room strategies that intensify mobility while enhancing stability, scapular control, posture, and upper body power transfer.

Hands-On

Lecture

1. Learning how to program and coach to get the most out of your squat variations.
2. Squatting is not one-size-fits-all.
3. Good things take time, progression is a process.

Hands-On

Lecture

1. Build a better understanding and improve your ability to coach, program, and execute knee-dominant, hip-dominant, and combined knee-and-hip-dominant single-leg training exercises.
2. Develop sound exercise selection and training program design strategies through critical thinking.
3. Review and apply practical weight room single-leg training exercise progressions, regressions, and lateralizations in all planes of motion.

Hands-On

Lunch included with registration. Possible tour of facility.
