Cybex launches 2017 UK Seminar Programme for health and fitness professionals
Exercise equipment manufacturer Cybex has launched its 2017 UK Seminar Programme, a series of 12 one-day seminars powered by the Cybex Research Institute.
Aimed at health, fitness and wellbeing professionals, the seminars are taking place across the UK and will cover a selection of the industry’s key trends and topical issues: movement analysis, mobility, training for speed, biomechanics analysis for improved strength, exercise and the nervous system and scientific training for exercise programming.
Seminars will comprise a combination of practical and theory study, designed to equip attendees with the knowledge, understanding and experience to apply the findings in their day-to-day roles. The programme has been developed by the Cybex Research Institute (CRI), the research arm of Cybex and the body responsible for product development, exercise research and education to support gym operators and fitness professionals worldwide.
The programme is also accredited by the Register of Exercise Professionals (REPs) and attendees will be awarded four CPD Points by Life Fitness, an Endorsed Training Provider, for every seminar completed.
“As health, fitness and wellbeing professionals it is our responsibility to continually develop ourselves so that we can help others,” said Chris Rock, education manager at Life Fitness. “At the Cybex Research Institute we strive to utilise credible, research-based resources to create and deliver education that is not just focused on the science. Instead, we offer a real-life perspective and teach learners how to apply the findings because our desire is to better enable professionals to assist clients each and every day.
“As part of the wider Life Fitness family, we now have even more resources and experience that we can draw upon to further improve the standards and quality of education our attendees receive,” Rock continued. “The 2017 Cybex Education Programme focuses on the key industry trends that are developed or growing, so learners are best equipped to serve their clients and wider network.”
