Performing Posture Assessments to Become a Community Resource 

by Ken Baldwin, Certified Posture Specialist™, Executive Director of NPI 

 

A lot of fitness professionals underestimate the importance of conducting posture/body alignment assessments prior to teaching an exercise movement or strength training activity. Out of all the various assessments one could perform on a client, posture assessments in both the static and dynamic position are the most critical ones. By not performing these assessments, a professional is limited in their knowledge of where to begin with a client.

 

Furthermore, not knowing a client's initial postural abnormalities and muscular imbalances can allow professional trainers to inadvertently teach exercises that will cause further muscular imbalance or injuries, and possibly increase posture-related issues down the road. Health clubs, fitness facilities and personal training studios can all utilize a posture grid to attract new members, retain current members and build a strong personal trainer client base.  Read More >>
