ACE IFT muscular planning identifies limited postural stability and kinetic-chain mobility. Which phase best fits?
- ALoad/Speed Training
- BBase Training
- CFunctional Training
- DMovement Training
Show answer and explanations
Answer
C
Functional Training is the first ACE IFT muscular phase; it establishes postural stability and kinetic-chain mobility before patterns are loaded.
A
Load/Speed Training adds external load or speed to patterns the client already controls; this client lacks the stability and mobility that phase requires.
B
Base Training is the first phase of the cardiorespiratory component; the word 'base' sounds foundational, but it does not address postural stability or joint mobility.
D
Movement Training coordinates the five primary movement patterns and depends on the stability and mobility this client has not yet established.
C
Functional Training is the first ACE IFT muscular phase; it establishes postural stability and kinetic-chain mobility before patterns are loaded.
