MA STRENGTH LEVEL 2

As a coach:

  • Maybe you’ve been using mobility exercises, but still have nagging movement restrictions
  • You probably know a lot of assistance movements, but aren’t getting the desired results
  • Or you’ve read about periodization but still feel stuck in choosing movements for strength, power, or speed

Rarely are solutions black and white. More often you need to live in the gray.

Through a mix of lectures and practical breakouts, this seminar builds on the principles taught in the Ma Strength Level 1 seminar by teaching you how to assess the Olympic lifts and manipulate your internal forces increase your rate of coaching success.
