Personal trainers must have sound knowledge of physical exercises to improve sports performance and injury rehabilitation, but also in-depth knowledge of coaching and business methodologies, which will set them apart from their competitors"

At TECH we have set out to create contents of the highest teaching and educational quality that will turn our students into successful professionals, following the highest quality standards in teaching at an international level. Therefore, we offer you this postgraduate diploma with extensive content that will help you reach the elite of personal training.

Distinguishing the different parts of the anatomical structure of the body becomes essential for the personal trainer specializing in functional rehabilitation and recovery, because they have to know the tissue that is injured or dysfunctional. Therefore, the anatomical position is the first step when starting to work on the subject's readaptation and rehabilitation. The adoption of a standard anatomical position provides a better description of the different tissues, organs, systems and structures of the human body for their evaluation, assessment and study.

Knowledge of the structure and functionality of the different types of bones, muscles, joints, cartilage, tendons and ligaments becomes a key tool for the personal trainer to have a global understanding of the process both in the initial evaluation and in the process of improvement and complete recovery.

Likewise, the approach to functional rehabilitation can be approached from two different perspectives: prevention and treatment. The fight against morbidity with the increasing life expectancy in society has become essential. It is essential that the increase in the age of the population does not lead to an increase in physical incapacity and increase functional dependence, which in turn reduces the quality of life of the population in the last stage of their lives.

This postgraduate diploma will cover the most common pathologies of the locomotor system, among which are cervical pain, back pain and lower back pain (widely suffered by most of the population once or several times throughout their lives), scoliosis, herniated discs, tendinitis in the shoulder and elbow, the latter called epicondylitis or "tennis elbow", osteoarthritis of the hip and knee, the well-known ankle sprains, and problems such as plantar fasciitis and hallux valgus.
