Functional movement analysis
In the Functional Movement Analysis course unit, the focus is on the quality of everyday movements in old age. Participants learn to recognize and systematically analyse typical movement and posture patterns of older people, such as reduced arm swing, balance weaknesses or gait instability.
In addition to practical observation, they will learn how to safely carry out and evaluate functional tests such as the "chair-rise test" or the "timed-up-and-go test". From this, targeted training measures can be derived to improve mobility, strength and coordination in everyday life.
Particular attention is paid to formulating individual training goals from real everyday movements such as getting up from a chair, walking or reaching for objects and creating a mini-training plan based on these observations. This practice-oriented unit creates the basis for effective and needs-oriented training planning for older people.
