The BioMechanics Method Corrective Exercise Specialist (TBMM-CES) course (online + textbook)

The BioMechanics Method CES course (online+textbook) is the premier corrective exercise specialist certification for exercise, health and fitness professionals. It includes all of the essential learning resources required to obtain the TBMM-CES credential, plus additional benefits available only to TBMM Certificate holders.

The online + textbook  version of the TBMM-CES course includes the following materials

  • The BioMechanics Method Corrective Exercise Specialist (TBMM-CES) online course

What is in the curriculum?

To earn your TBMM-CES credential you will complete a comprehensive online course that consists of the following five modules:

  • The Fundamentals of Structural Assessment
  • Understanding Muscles and Movement
  • The Fundamentals of Corrective Exercise
  • The Complete Corrective Exercise Library
  • Corrective Exercise Program Design

The Fundamentals of Structural Assessment (Module 1)

This learning module teaches you a step-by-step process for conducting musculoskeletal assessments so you can identify common musculoskeletal imbalances that can cause muscle dysfunction, joint discomfort and movement limitations. You will learn verbal, visual, and hands-on techniques for assessing the feet and ankles, knees, lumbo-pelvic hip girdle, thoracic spine and shoulder girdle, and the neck and head. You will also learn how musculoskeletal imbalances in one area of the body can cause problems in other areas.

Understanding Muscles and Movement (Module 2)

This learning module explains in easy-to-understand terms how the whole body moves together as an integrated series of muscles, tendons, bones, ligaments, and fascia; information that is essential for understanding the root causes of musculoskeletal imbalances. It will teach you about major muscle groups in detail, as well as specific muscle origins, insertions, and functions. You will also discover the unique approach of The BioMechanics Method in regard to understanding how gravity and ground reaction forces change the way the body moves — knowledge that is imperative for designing effective corrective exercise programs.

The Fundamentals of Corrective Exercise (Module 3)

This learning module builds upon the knowledge and skills learned in Modules 1 and 2, and explains the most effective types of exercises for eliminating lower back, hip, shoulder, knee, neck, foot, and ankle dysfunction caused by common musculoskeletal imbalances. You will learn about self-myofascial release techniques that will enable you to alleviate restrictions in muscles and fascia, stretching exercises to help increase a client’s mobility and range of movement, and strengthening exercises to help people begin to move correctly and without limitations. You will also learn valuable strategies for regressing exercises when necessary, and then progressing exercises as a client’s abilities improve. Specific contraindications for each exercise type are also included to ensure safety and effectiveness.

The Complete Corrective Exercise Library (Module 4)

This learning module contains descriptions and demonstrations of almost 200 of the most effective corrective exercises for addressing musculoskeletal imbalances (including progressions and regressions). The fundamental principles of each corrective exercise category are highlighted as well as the key teaching tips for every exercise. This comprehensive collection of techniques serves as an exercise guide to help you to create programs that are most appropriate for a client’s needs.

Corrective Exercise Program Design (Module 5)

This learning module guides you through the corrective exercise program design process from start to finish, teaching you how to develop and use effective communication strategies when working with clients that have corrective exercise needs. Comprehensive, real-life case studies using actual clients are also included that demonstrate the complete The BioMechanics Method process. In addition to tying together the information from Modules 1-4, this fifth and final module of TBMM-CES course focuses on developing client communication skills and creating and networking and referral strategies so you can apply your skills within your scope of practice in the real world.
