Table of Content
Part I: All About ABLE Bodies Balance Training Chapter 1: Components of ABLE Bodies Training There's more to balance training than just balance! This chapter outlines the five components that make up an ABLE bodies training program: flexibility, posture and core stability, strength for a purpose, balance and mobility, and cardiorespiratory endurance. Chapter 2: Setting Up ABLE Bodies Training Sessions You know the components, but how do you combine them to create a solid training program? This chapter explains how to set up classes, how to select and progress activities, and how to be a more effective instructor. Chapter 3: Ensuring Safety in ABLE Bodies Training No matter how well you set up your training sessions, they aren't any good without the proper safety guidelines in place. This chapter outlines how to create plans and establish rules, ensure the mental and physical well-being of your participants, and prepare for emergencies. Part II: ABLE Bodies Balance Training Activities Chapter 4: Flexibility Flexibility offers a greater range of motion, and that is key in older adults. In this chapter, you'll find flexibility activities that can be done while seated or standing, as well as conceptual activities. Chapter 5: Posture and Core Stability A strong core is key to good posture and overall balance. This chapter offers activities specific to both posture and core stability, as well as activities that progressively increase strength in these two areas. Chapter 6: Strength for a Purpose Overall strength is a goal, but there are also specific areas that need more attention in older populations. In this chapter, you'll find lots of strength activities for the legs, back, chest, and triceps. Chapter 7: Balance and Mobility If you want activities that focus on balance, then this chapter is for you! Activities in this chapter focus on gait, activities of daily living, vision, and motor coordination. You'll also find games that target all areas. Chapter 8: Cardiorespiratory Endurance Adding cardiorespiratory elements to balance training is easy! This chapter offers lots of ideas for setting up sessions dedicated to cardiorespiratory endurance or adding cardiorespiratory endurance activities to your balance classes.
