Hidden Secrets To Core Performance

How much do you know about core performance? Can you identify the four stages of motor learning? Do you know the McGill "Big Three?" Can you articulate the difference between abdominal hallowing and abdominal bracing? Are you familiar with the term, "sacral winking" or "torsional buttressing"? If you answered "no" to any of these questions, this course is for you! Join Pete as he shares his 25 years of core performance experience in this one-of-a-kind interactive course.

Pete Holman

I am Physical Therapist, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and US National TaeKwon-Do champion and team captain. I invented the TRX Rip Trainer and the adjunct 8 hour CEU cours. My latest invention is the Nautilus Glute Drive (the first ever plate loaded Hip Thrust machine on the market.) The combination of understanding rehabilitative medicine and sports performance training has given me a unique perspective on the physical and mental components of human movement. I have enjoyed working with professional athletes from the NFL, X-Games, MLB, UFC, and Extreme Skiing World Championships; however, I pride myself on tapping into the natural athlete in us all.
