Fitness Assessment | In-Person
For clients with special needs, medical conditions, or age-related concerns, NASM provides alternative and modified assessment techniques. The assessment evaluates an individual's physical abilities, strengths, and weaknesses in specific athletic tasks. Its purpose is to establish baselines, set performance benchmarks, and identify areas for improvement. Benefits include: 1. Targeted Training: Personalize exercise regimes to optimize results. 2. Progress Monitoring: Quantify improvements over time. 3. Injury Prevention: Recognize and address potential vulnerabilities. 4. Motivation: Set and achieve measurable goals. In short, performance assessments provide a roadmap for effective, goal-oriented training. Before starting any assessment, NASM emphasizes the importance of obtaining informed consent and ensuring the client understands the purpose, procedures, risks, and benefits. Remember, these guidelines and procedures may evolve over time. Always refer to the latest NASM guidelines or materials for the most updated information.

The Overhead Squat Assessment (OHSA) is a dynamic movement evaluation used to identify muscular imbalances and movement dysfunctions. Its purpose is to observe the client's kinetic chain in motion and pinpoint areas of restriction or instability. When a client squats with arms overhead, any deviations from optimal alignment can indicate underactive or overactive muscle groups. Benefits of the OHSA include:
1. **Early Detection:** Identify potential areas prone to injury.
2. **Personalization:** Tailor exercise programs to address specific needs.
3. **Progress Tracking:** Monitor improvements over time.
4. **Efficiency:** Target the root cause of postural issues, not just the symptoms.
5. **Education:** Provide clients with insights into their body mechanics.
In essence, OHSA is a powerful tool for enhancing training outcomes and promoting musculoskeletal health.
