In this Live Group Call we look at how to start Strength training exercises if your dog is just coming out of rehab or just starting out in strength work. We provide examples of the type of exercises that are done and why they are performed in a particular manner. We also go through why we believe it is best to start with strength work first before any other form of exercise. <\/p>\n
We look at how and when to progress your exercises and why this is important.<\/p>\n
We touch on a TPLO injury and the type of variations we would place on the exercise and why we do this.<\/p>\n
There were some super questions raised in the discussion and I have marked them with the word Question<\/em> in italics.<\/p>\n Towards the end, some of the attendees have their mics on outside and the wind distortion affects the audio somewhat – my apologies for this.<\/p>\n Below in Resources<\/strong>, I have provided you with 3 circuits that you may start out with in in your Strength work. It includes the exercise, number of sets and repetitions and a small description of out to execute the exercise. Let me know if these help you.<\/p>\n If you have any comments or questions, please post them below.<\/p>\n Happy Training! <\/p>\n 00:00 Intro question: When people tell you what strength training is…04:55 Strength and Recovery11:33 Why Strength First13:13 Strength vs Power16:05 Strength vs Power – continued20:49 Coming out of Rehab or Injury30:00 A Guide to Repetitions: How many for what31:15 How to manage repetitions coming out of rehab38:02 Example of an exercise routine of a post rehab dog45:55 Example Circuit for a healthy dog starting strength work48:57 Question<\/em>: Use of a hand target as a marker?51:25 Example routine of a healthy dog starting out – continued53:07 Progressions to evolve training57:42 Question<\/em>: How does one restart strength work after a break of a few weeks?59:56 Question<\/em>: Rear Feet Toeing out – Good or bad?01:04:36 Posture and Form is Your Friend01:06:45 Don’t be afraid to use words in your strength training01:09:06 Training program if you are just starting out01:10:29 Question<\/em>: What about swimming for recovery and strength and conditioning?01:15:42 Question<\/em>: How much walking to incorporate into starting strength work01:20:16 Question<\/em>: Acto Bands?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-11638","tva_lesson","type-tva_lesson","status-publish","hentry","tva_courses-bk-9-foundational-strength-program-2","post-wrapper","thrv_wrapper"],"yoast_head":"\nTimestamp and Chapter Heading<\/h3>\n
