Brandon DaCruzGUEST
But if we look at 85% of one repetition max for most people, now there is another study, a review on this, where it shows some disparities between men and women.
Brandon DaCruzGUEST
But in the general sense, if you went to a NASM textbook, it would say that it was a five repetition max.
Brandon DaCruzGUEST
Reason for that is that we see that between 80 to 85% of one repetition max on EMG, which there's some issues with EMG, but we see in the muscle activation research that it will recruit both low and high threshold motor units.
Brandon DaCruzGUEST
So you're tapping into both type one and type two muscle fibers.
Chris HitchkoHOST
helping you pass your NASM CPT in less than 30 days.
Chris HitchkoHOST
We're gonna go over the 20 muscles that you need to know, but also teach you the 37 muscles that you will need at Show Up Fitness to become a qualified trainer.
Chris HitchkoHOST
That's the difference between a textbook trainer, you memorize a textbook, false illusion of making $100,000, you're gonna be making 10K a month by reading a book, No, we are personal trainers.
Chris HitchkoHOST
You need the technical skills, the people skills, and the business skills, and that's what we teach you at Show Up.
Chris HitchkoHOST
But you came across us too late, so you don't care about that.
Chris HitchkoHOST
So let's get into these 20 muscles that you need to know for NASM.
Chris HitchkoHOST
Overactive, short, they're tight.
Chris HitchkoHOST
What do you do? You foam roll and stretch or you will die.
Daniel LycisHOST
I'm your host, Daniel Lucas, and our today's guest...
Daniel LycisHOST
He is an NASM master trainer and a neurological wellness specialist who has spent the last two decades helping people move better, think sharper, and age stronger.
Daniel LycisHOST
Other than Mr. Karl Sterling.
Daniel LycisHOST
Welcome, welcome, Mr. Carl, once again, to one of my podcasts.
Karl SterlingGUEST
And what I do, while originally centered around
speaker_4NARRATOR
the
Karl SterlingGUEST
NASM model, really reaches out to the fringes much, much, much further into the field of neurological wellness.
Karl SterlingGUEST
So what that really means is when you take the name of my company, Neuromotor Training, We're dealing with more than just muscles and movement.
Brandon DeCruzHOST
And then they, I think in the published copy, it was 80 and 85%.

But how much is that supported by science and how much is clever marketing? My guest today is Conrad Sanchez.
Turo VirtaHOST
Conrad has a master's degree in kinesiology, certifications through organizations including ACSM and NASM and several years of experience specializing in whole body EMS training and educating other trainers.
Turo VirtaHOST
Today I want to take a balanced look at EMS, how it actually works, whether it really recruits more muscle, what the research says about strength and muscle growth and who may benefit, who should avoid it and whether 20 minutes of EMS can really replace traditional strength training.
Turo VirtaHOST
Konrad, welcome to the podcast.
Lacey KellyGUEST
I actually found my way into this industry at 18 by way of the Spicy Clubs.
Lacey KellyGUEST
And over the last 25 years have found myself as a studio owner, as a NASM accredited instructor, teacher trainer.
Lacey KellyGUEST
And Spiral just called my name for the last 10 years.
Lacey KellyGUEST
I can't explain it.
LaToyaGUEST
And so I was like, okay, I love this so much.
LaToyaGUEST
Why don't I become NASM certified? So I actually know what I'm doing a little bit.
LaToyaGUEST
And I did last year, but trying to be your own trainer is kind of like trying to be your own doctor.
LaToyaGUEST
Exactly.

How are we going to do this? And Lisa was a very stubborn, like half a pound here, pound here, half a pound here.

And it's fun to watch her as like get her NASA certifications.
speaker_1UNKNOWN

Sarah KleinerHOST
Welcome to the Evolving Wellness Podcast, where circadian biology and quantum biology meet nutrition, lifestyle, hormones, health, and everyday conversations.
Sarah KleinerHOST
I'm your host, Sarah, board certified in applied quantum biology by the American Naturopathic Medical Board and certified in nutrition by the National Academy of Sports Medicine.
Sarah KleinerHOST
This is just a quick little reminder that you'll never hear a guest on this podcast whose every stance I agree with.
Sarah KleinerHOST
And that's the point.
Eric HelmsHOST
Is this an issue with my posture? And then finding a bunch of content as you look at it telling you there is an issue here.
Eric HelmsHOST
So I have a unique position on this because I got certified by the NASM organization a long time ago, including even getting, I think, the PES and the CES.
Eric HelmsHOST
I'm not sure I actually completed the CES back in the day.
Eric HelmsHOST
But that's the performance enhancement specialist and the corrective exercise specialist.
Eric HelmsHOST
Back, we're talking when I did my bachelor's and master's, they were both in online programs, my first master's, four personal trainers who were doing a certain amount of work, and they were specifically integrated curriculum with NASM.
Eric HelmsHOST
And one thing I do like about NASM is that it has gotten progressively more based upon published data.
Eric HelmsHOST
They started a journal back in the day.
Eric HelmsHOST
They have a content team.
