Recreation PEI is pleased to
announce that the keynote speaker for the
2013 Conference will be Kevin Elliott.
On a Global level Kevin has just completed
participation on staff for his third world
junior championship, to go along with
Spengler Cup and world under-18 assignments
for Hockey Canada. To date, he has
collected two silver medals from the world juniors (2010
and 2011) and a bronze medal from the world under 18
championships. Locally, Kevin is the athletic trainer for
PEI Rocket of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League,
when he’s not globe-trotting with national representative
teams.
Over the years Kevin has had his share of suitcase living as
well he’s been with Baseball Canada, the Blue Jays’ organization,
had stops in the OHL and the collegiate ranks, and
spent a season in the NHL with Florida. He brings to the
conference a wide background of experience on all levels
from the amateur to the professional. We look forward to
his keynote address.

Research
clearly demonstrates that one of the most significant
fitness variable separating elite athletes from good athletes is
strength. The sport of power lifting is a sport that requires
competitors to, on a seasonal basis, lift their maximum single
repetition in the barbell back squat, the barbell dead lift, and
the barbell bench press. The purpose of this session is to
learn the subtle nuances associated with performing these
three lifts to maximize success in the sport of power lifting.

#12 Fitness
Mobility Assessment: A Critical Skill for the
Personal Trainer Room: Fitness Centre
Wyatt Inman, Instructor Holland College
Performing exercises incorrectly is associated with a
high risk of developing either an acute or a chronic
injury. New exercisers often come to a fitness center
with negative postural issues and reduced mobility in
both the hip and shoulder joint. It is the responsibility
of the trainer to assess these issues and provide
programming that minimizes the risk of injury associated
with the exercise program. The purpose of this
session is to introduce you to two simple movement
screens and some associated corrective exercises
that are commonly used in our industry.
