ONLINE WEBINAR (Zoom App required)

Dr. Eyal Lederman

Date: 3 Dec 2020 • 19:00 - 20:30 UK time (7 - 8:30 pm GMT)

CPD hours: 1.5 • cost: £25

In the last two decades core stability training has dominated exercise and movement rehabilitation practices. Despite its popularity, core stability has failed to deliver the benefits that were attributed to it.
In this lecture Eyal will discuss the problems with core stability principles and why this approach was doomed to fail as a therapeutic tool and a method for improving human performance. He will present an alternative, science-based approach to movement rehabilitation and performance
