the pelvis— Explore a logical progression of techniques to examine the stability and balance of the pelvic region – from
muscle activation, to appropriate muscle patterning, to adequate muscle endurance. This course will be especially helpful

CEC: CPTN-14, NSCA-1.4
PC1B: CPTN Yoga Level 3: Yoga for Athletes and Personal Trainers
Mike Chapman, RYT, CPTN-CPT, CPTN-CYS
Serious athletes understand that muscle balance and flexibility are key components to remaining injury-free. Originally
created by local yoga guru Caron Shepley, this program is specifically designed to increase strength, flexibility and muscle
balance in athletes. This seven-hour workshop, which is geared to demonstrating how a trainer can incorporate yoga into
clients’ training sessions, will include a brief history of yoga, basic theory of pranayama and asana practice, discussion about
different types of yoga, the practice of sun salutations and other warm-ups, the practice of specific postures, and explanations
about how athletes in specific sports might benefit from this kind of yoga practice.
Time: 9:30am–5:30pm Fee: $169 + HST mem; $229 + HST non-mem CECs: CPTN-7, NSCA-0.7
PC1C: The Flexible Periodization Method: Individualized Program Design
For Athletes – Why your “Sport-Specific Programs” are “Hit or Miss”
– Karsten Jensen, MSc., CPTN-CPT.M, CHEK 2, HLC 3
Sport-Specific Training — training that is customized to the needs of a particular sport — sounds attractive, yet sportspecific training, overall, seems to only produce “hit or miss” results because each individual athlete has different strengths or
weaknesses in relation to the needs of the sport. For example, a plyometric program for a volleyball player who already jumps
high enough to be competitive, but misses every second match because of a knee injury, is an example of a GREAT PROGRAM
with the WRONG goals. To produce consistent results, the training program must focus on the needs of the individual athlete
requirements to practise and compete successfully. Through theory and practical examples, this two-day workshop teaches
you The Flexible Periodization Method — a proven nine-step Method to create completely individualized training programs.
The workshop includes an opportunity to work on a case of your choice.
Thurs./Fri., May 29/30 Time: 8:00am–4:00pm Fee: $230+HST (mem); $295+HST non-mem CEC: CPTN-14, NSCA-1.4
PC1D: The Shoulder Joint: The Most Versatile Joint in the Body – Kevin Duguay, CAT (C)
This full-day seminar provides personal trainers a much more in-depth understanding of the shoulder joint through theoretical, practical and functional techniques to better serve their clients. From dislocations to subluxations to tendinopathies to
strains and postural syndromes, this joint has it all. Who would have guessed that technology would challenge personal trainers even more when working with their clients? This seminar reviews the major muscles and structures involved with some of
the most common ailments that we see in this area. We will look at the most common tendinopathies in rotator cuff and long
head of biceps; dislocations and subluxations of the shoulder to gain a better understanding of how to manage these injuries
both pre-op and post-op; thoracic outlet syndrome, which is growing in popularity due to the use of computers, laptops and
hand-held devices, and what you can do from a preventative aspect for your client. We will also look at postural assessment
tools that you can use when assessing your clients to help them in understanding why posture is critical in the prevention of

Pre-Conference Sessions – Friday, May 30, 2014
PC2A: RockFit – Performance Taping Clinic – Brad Norris, M.Ed, Reg.Kin.
Performance Movement Taping (PMT) is a program developed by industry-leading experts in functional movement assessment and performance. It introduces the concept of training enhancement via functional taping methods and focuses on
improving movement, posture and performance. Rocktape believes that clinics should be inclusive, interactive and stimulating with the majority of time spent ‘hands on’! You will leave with a revolutionary new skill and understanding of human
movement. This course is intended for coaches, trainers and athletes with all levels of experience with taping. The best tape
and the best taping training in the city is being brought to you for 2014!
Time: 9:00am–6:00pm Fee: $230 + HST mem; $295 + HST non-mem CECs: CPTN-8
PC2B: SST-NASE Speed Clinic (WS) – Larry Jusdanis, BPHED, CPTN-CPT
Attention all coaches and trainers who work with athletes of hockey, football, soccer and any other sports requiring
Speed, Power and Agility. Learn from the best in an interactive one-day workshop to improve your clients’ speed. This isn’t
your typical form-running clinic. Coaches will experience modalities such as over speed and sled training, the proper way to
teach lateral speed, the use of functional implements such as the tire for speed enhancement, complex training, one of the
fastest ways to enhance your speed, the proper way to teach plyometrics and when to use them, Olympic lifting and when to
use, and unique one-legged exercises to increase your performance. Plus Program Designed to Optimize Speed, SST’s
different rep scheme methods for speed enhancement, plus a few top program methods for peaking! This one-day workshop
is a must if you are SERIOUS about making your athletes the fastest! Note: This session is activity-based. Please wear
training gear. Time: 9:30am–5:30pm Fee: $169+HST mem; $229+HST non-mem CECs: CPTN-7, NSCA-0.7
PC2C: What Does it Mean to be Ready to Work with Clients with Disabilities?
– Maureen Connolly, PhD., CSCS, CPTN-CPT
Personal training is one of the professions that has to be ready to accommodate clients in compliance with the Accessibility
for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). This means that trainers must be aware of architectural, space and equipment
accessibility, and that all promotional and needs-assessment materials must be accessible across a variety of media. It means
an attitudinal shift in what training, interviewing, program planning, progression, spotting and encouraging might entail.
This session will assist you in tapping into underdeveloped creative capacities to make a difference in people’s quality of life in
ways that you might not have previously imagined.
Time: 9:30am–1:30pm Fee: $129 + HST mem; $179 + HST non-mem CECs: CPTN-4, NSCA-0.4

2014 CPTN CONFERENCE
• JAPANESE CANADIAN CULTURAL CENTRE •
Conference Sessions – Saturday, May 31, 2014
8:30am - 9:30am
SA1A: Boomers as Clients: Strategizing Programming and Interpersonal Skills (L)
– Lee Fielder, MA, BKin (Hon), CPTN-CPT
Boomers as aged participants are the next generation of clients for personal trainers who are ready to move to the next level of
program design and delivery. Every clientele comes with their own unique contingencies. This session will explore the complex
needs and demands of an increasingly diverse client base. Learn strategies for program design and rapport building through
considerations of safety and respect. As well, apply the idea of “organize the week, organize the workout” (O-WOW principle) as
a strategy that will assist and support individualizing programming with the contingencies of boomer-aged clients.
SA1B: Business Essentials for Fitness Professionals (L) – Angela Pereira, BSc., CSCS, CES
When establishing yourself as a fitness professional, what will set you apart and assure you success in a highly competitive
marketplace? Join Angela Pereira for a discussion about the entrepreneurial side to business: What kind of clients will define
your business? What type of business structure will work for you? Who should be part of your business advisory team? What
type of insurance do you need? Should you hire associates? Where should you look for referrals? What other health care
professionals should you include in your network? What kind of numbers on your balance sheet will make you happy? Prepare
your questions for what will be a dynamic discussion!
SA1C: Omega-3 Supplementation (L) – Evan Lewis, HBKin, MSc., PhD Candidate, CSCS
Omega-3 fatty acids are an essential nutrient for human health and can only be sourced from diet. Canadians are under
consuming omega-3s and over-consuming omega-6s. This dietary imbalance can alter the body’s homeostatic balance. This
in turn affects how the body performs during exercise and adapts to training, at the level of the motor neuron and muscle to
cell all the way to the whole body. This session will discuss different sources of omega-3s, how they are digested, metabolized
and utilized throughout the body for improved health, and to encourage and accelerate adaptations to training.
SA1D: You Can’t Fire a Canon from a Canoe – A “Balanced” Approach to
Stability Training (WS) – Karsten Jensen, MSc., CPTN-CPT.M, CHEK 2, HLC 3
Training on unstable surfaces and with unstable equipment has been popular for a decade or more. However, strength
training on unstable surfaces has also been criticized for not getting clients real strength. A range of scientific studies
point to the fact that when instability is introduced, the muscle activity shifts from the larger prime movers to the smaller
stabilisers, in essence supporting the notion that training on unstable surfaces does not build strength.
However, by investigating the issue deeper, you will learn how to optimally periodize stable and unstable surface
training over the course of a longer training cycle.
9:45am - 11:00am
SA2A: Intro to NLP and the Mind-Body Connection (L)
– Mike Cicinelli, CMC, CHT, CMPTLT, CPTN-CPT
As a fitness professional, our goal is to create lasting change in our clients’ lifestyles. What if there were techniques and
skills available to you that could help increase your clients’ results in all areas of their life? How valuable is effective and
precise communication in teaching? Intro to NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is an opportunity for fitness and health
professionals to come and learn all about some of the secrets of how to create powerful and lasting change for themselves
and their clients. We will discuss the mind-body connection and how it can impact the health and lifestyle of individuals.
This “Intro” talk is geared to expose some of the most powerful transformational tools available today!
SA2B: Unmasking Superfoods: The Truth and Hype Behind Acai, Coconut,
Kale, and More (L) – Jennifer Sygo, MSc., RD
With mounting interest in health wellness, athletes and active individuals are often turning to so-called “superfoods” to
improve their health and their performance. But what is the evidence behind the at-times outlandish claims made about
these foods? Do we really know what the health benefits - or, in some cases, risks - are? And can these foods really impact
performance? In this presentation, Jennifer will provide an overview of the myths and realities behind a number of popular
and controversial foods, including acai and goji berries, kale, chia, hemp, and coconut, while also highlighting the potential
benefits of underappreciated superfoods, including cheese, mussels and oysters. Controversial topics, including the role of
saturated fats in our health, will be highlighted.”
SA2C: Tabata Training: Facts, Fallacies and Applications (L) – Mark Young, B.Kin
Tabata training has become very popular as a proposed means of shedding body fat at an accelerated rate. In fact, this is so
much the case that entire classes and programs have been designed around the use of this method. This presentation will
investigate the origins of the Tabata method, how it was studied, the results that were measured, and the applicability of how
and when to use Tabatas as part of an overall fat-loss routine.
SA2D: What a N.E.A.T. Idea! (WS) – Deanna Lawson-Langford, BA, CPTN-CPT
Current research tells us that, in addition to providing structured exercise programs, we must attend to our clients’ N.E.A.T.
(non-exercise activity thermogenesis — that is, everything else they do outside of the gym to increase their movement) for
the best results. This session will give trainers out-of-the-box ideas to assist clients to enhance their N.E.A.T. throughout daily
activities, and help take their clients’ results to the next level!
11:15am–12:30am
SA3A: Financial Fitness Testing (L) – Graham Brown, HBPhe, CPTN-CPT
Ever wonder why some trainers dominate their market while others fade away? What are the key performance indicators
for your business? It’s time to take a brutally honest look at how you really spend your time. Learn how to evaluate your own
fitness business and learn how to find your strengths, weaknesses and then persistently pursue excellence to dominate your
market. Whether you are a new trainer or an industry vet, you won’t want to miss this.
SA3B: Improving Strength Qualities in a Concurrent Training Model (L)
– Chris Chapman, MSc.(c), HB.Kin, CEP, CSCS
Many sports and activities require training both strength and endurance qualities at the same time (i.e., concurrent training
model). This can prove challenging due to the interference phenomenon, which is well documented in the literature. This
presentation will review both the current and historical science on this topic. A full Yearly Training Plan (YTP) of Olympic
Canoe Kayak athletes will be used as an example of the application of these principles. While this model is a must for any
cyclical endurance sport athlete, it most definitely applies to team sport athletes and general populations trying to maximize
training adaptations.
DARE TO BE EXCELLENT!
SA3D: True Functional Training with Unusual Implements (WS)
– Larry Jusdanis, BPHED, CPTN-CPT
Larry will teach the proper way to use unusual implement training for your clients and athletes. Participants will be put
through activities such as tire flipping and grappling, prowler, sledgehammer and sled variations plus much, much more
unique equipment! Larry will explain how and when to use all implements for your clients. Learn how to use implements for
fat loss, strength gains, development of power and speed. This interactive presentation is a must see!
Note: This session is activity-based. Please wear workout gear.
12:30–1:00 Lunch - hot lunch served to all delegates
1:00pm–2:00pm
Luncheon Address – Research in Fitness (L) – Mark Young, B.Kin.
The fitness industry is so saturated with claims from so-called-experts, media and marketers that it is sometimes hard, even
for the brightest trainers, to cut through the confusion and get straight to the truth of what works and what doesn’t. The
purpose of this presentation is to allow you to stop being spoon-fed by the gurus and media, and to teach you how to begin
to think for yourself. By learning to use research as your guide, you’ll effectively be able to slice through the nonsense and get
straight to the truth of what will actually produce results for your clients.
2:30pm–3:45pm
SA4A: Eight Hidden Reasons your Clients Can’t Lose Weight (L) – Igor Klibanov, BA, CPT
What if your approach to fat loss is completely backwards? After all, fat loss is about a lot more than calories, exercise and
willpower. In fact, you don’t just lose fat to be healthy, you need to be healthy to lose fat. In this session, you will learn the
eight hidden reasons why your clients can’t lose fat, even if they are doing everything right with their nutrition and exercise.
This presentation will cover factors such as hormonal balance, brain chemistry, digestive health, toxicity and more. This session will transform you into a fat-loss detective to enable you to detect each individual client’s blueprint for fat loss.
SA4B: Building the Athletic Development Model in Youth Sport (L)
– Derek Salvador, BA, CSCS
Long-Term Athletic Development is a popular topic within the Strength and Conditioning community. In this session you will
learn about the importance of athletic development and its relevance in youth sport. Learn how to create and implement
youth-level training programs in relation to age and gender. Using concepts from various LTAD models, this lecture will also
discuss training models, methods of program design and delivery, and the growing concerns with early sport specialization.
SA4C: Fascial Posture Training (L) – Melissa Putt, BA
Fascia is a body-wide continuity and force transmission system. Without fascia no movement would be possible. It links toe
to brow, organs to spine, arm to core and links all systems together. Fascial Posture Training System is a two-day seminar to
teach five fascial lines. These are the foundation of posture and alignment and ultimately the root of all physical improvement. In the FPTS you will learn: 1) How the Fascial system works, 2) Muscle testing to highlight fascial tension, 3) Five major
fascial lines, 4) Posture reading through the fascial lines, and 5) Facilitated fascial Pinning, Stretching and Releasing.
SA4D: Leaking when you Jump Is NOT Normal! (WS) – Bellies Inc.
Stress urinary incontinence and pelvic floor dysfunction are common — common but not normal. The high-intensity activities we participate in coupled with the amount of sitting we do each day is wreaking havoc on our bodies and contributing
to more and more women leaking when they jump or laugh or skip or run. While you may hear some tell you it is normal and
not to worry about it, we are going to set the record straight — it is common but NOT normal and it can be fixed! This session
will look at the anatomy of the pelvic floor, its role in core stability, signs of a weak pelvic floor, and functional movements
that will help you and your clients build a stronger core.
4:00pm–5:30pm
SA5A: BIM Yoga Breathing (WS) – Mike Chapman, RYT, CPTN-CPT, CPTN-CYS
Breathe Into Motion Yoga System includes a variety of Pranayama or breath-control techniques that will aid in core stability in
a variety of fitness models including strength and cardiovascular training. Unique in its design, the Breathe Into Motion Yoga
System was built specifically to enhance athletic performance and aid in the rehabilitation of injuries. Breathing is the key to
success in physical yoga practice. Mike Chapman will lead you through a wide variety of BIM Yoga breathing techniques to aid
in training your clients.
SA5B: Holistic Nutrition (L) – David Lee, Hons. BSc., B.Ed., B.R.E., CPTN-CPT
This informative workshop will provide you with current information required to implement sound nutritional regiments
using whole food recipes. Topics covered include organic foods, foods good for digestion and how to improve digestion using
food-combining principles. Additionally, this session will highlight the benefits of using a juicer; the benefits of quality,
natural food herbal supplements to help give your body enough of the right elements; and minerals and vitamins.
SA5C: Osteoarthritis of the Knee: What Happens to the Knee when your Articular
Cartilage is Compromised? (WS) – Kevin Duguay, Sports Rehab Specialist, CAT (C)
This seminar is designed with the personal trainer in mind. We will conduct both a theoretical and hands-on partner-involved
review of the knee and relevant anatomical landmarks pertinent to the condition. We will then look at the physiology of the
disease and how it affects knee function. The final step in this seminar will use your knowledge from this seminar in designing and implementing exercises that can be performed by your client to maintain healthy knee function. We will discuss current trends in the management of this condition and gain a better understanding of indicated and contraindicated exercises
for the knee joint. We will also review what is critical to maintaining healthy articular cartilage. Please wear appropriate
clothing to allow for hands-on palpation of the knee joint and surrounding anatomy.
SA5D: Vegetarian Diets for an Active Lifestyle (L) – Jodi Robinson, BSc., RD
Vegetarian athletes have unique nutrient concerns due to the demand of physical activity on their bodies. For instance,
consider protein, iron, vitamin B12, calcium and omega-3 fatty acids. This session will address the nutrient needs of active
vegetarians/vegans, discuss healthy pre/post workout meal options and provide tips for overall meal planning. Also, learn
which vegetarian ‘Superfoods’ you should be discussing with your clients. The goal of this session is to have you walk away
feeling confident that you can discuss healthy eating with your vegetarian and vegan clients.
SA3C: The Benefits of Physical Activity and Aging Well (L) – Patricia Clark, BPHE
Ongoing research continues to confirm the effects of physical activity on optimum aging and the prevention of chronic
diseases. As we reach 2015, when there will be more people over the age of 65 than under the age of 14, it is more important
than ever to get the message to older adults that it is never too late to be active. This session will highlight recent research
as it relates to physical activity, and the prevention/management of several chronic diseases and how to encourage positive
lifestyle behaviour changes in an older individual.
