Advanced Resistance Training Certificate

Advanced Resistance Training

Advanced resistance training is essential knowledge for personal trainers who want to take their clients' resistance training to the next level. We begin with an in-depth look into muscle function and describe the effect that advanced resistance training has on the various muscle groups. We then move on to the science of designing and tailoring training programmes for a variety of client types by using prescribed protocols and tools for advanced resistance training. Two modules are devoted to practical resistance training techniques and include a full description of each technique, the pros and cons of these techniques and detailed practical examples. Finally, we take a look at the importance of health screening, to ensure that client eligibility for these programmes is prioritised and that client safety is guaranteed.

It was great, lots of knowledge and able to learn at my own pace was fantastic, and that I have access to it after completing exam is great too!

I am excited to start further learning and will likely try another course provided from this website! Exam was easy and straight forward, and provided you with the questions you did not get correct so that you are able to further study.

I have recommended this site to friends and family, and will continue learning! Thank you so much New Skills Academy! You are an amazing site and I am grateful!

A fantastic start for a new SENCo or a nice refresher for one who has been around for a while, worth every penny and has helped immensely!

This was the first online course I’ve funded myself and I was apprehensive as you don’t really know what you’re going to get!

However, I’m happy to report that this course has given me a really good grounding in Child Psychology and has whet my appetite to pursue some of the content in more detail under my own steam.

When I had questions, the Support Team’s responses were lightning fast and reassuring and for the fee paid and the experience I’ve had this has been great value for money and a firm foundation on which to build in the future.

Thank you New Skills Academy!

A very helpful and well-structured introduction to Complete Animal Care. I haven't completed all the course content and modules, but I am finding it is clear and easy to understand and the topics are presented with enough detail to enable a good understanding, but not overwhelm you!
Very straightforward process to access content, good value for money and there is an extensive range of free downloadable resources relating to the course.
While learning at my own pace, the course is giving me all the information I need to start my dream career. I have already and will continue to highly recommend New Skills Academy!

My course was the Pet Sitting and Dog Walking course. It is quite an interesting course! It was perfect to learn, and this what I was looking for.

Easy and clear to understand with many helpful pictures, very helpful extra information, very informative. I really enjoyed studying this course. For me it was fun ? I studied when I have had time, which is great for me in addition to my current job.

I hope I can start soon my new career with my newly learned skills. I am so excited. Fully accredited course which is important for me. I will definitely recommend New Skills Academy!
