The 2-hour Fundamentals Training Program is the foundation of the HEALTHY BACKS & BODIES™ (HB&B™) approach, focusing on the 'Five Fundamentals': C∙O∙R∙E™ Position, Functional Movement Patterns, C∙O∙R∙E™ Body Mechanics, HB&B™ Moments™ (Key Preventative Measures), and Movement Prep Warm-Ups.

This innovative and evidence-based training, developed by a leading sports-orthopedic physical therapist, combines highly experiential learning with fun and impactful methods. It emphasizes retraining and restoring our natural body positions and movements—like hip-hinging, squatting, and lunging— all of which reside underneath the performance of proper C∙O∙R∙E™ Body Mechanics and healthy ergonomic set-ups.

This program equips participants with the essentials of safe, healthy, efficient movement, injury prevention, and pain reduction, laying a solid foundation for a healthier, happier, energized, and more productive workforce.

Empower your people with the tools to move fluidly throughout life: @work, @home, and @play.

Your HB&B™ program introduces two evidence-based warm-up routines designed for daily use: a 'Pre-Shift' routine lasting approximately 9 minutes and a shorter 'During-Shift' routine of about 3 minutes.

In line with the evidence in moving beyond traditional static stretching, these routines are engineered to prepare the body and nervous system for the specific movements, actions, and demands anticipated during the work shift. Movement Prep Routine exercises reinforce the muscle memory established through your HB&B™ Fundamentals Industrial Athlete Program and enhance movement patterns and adherence to instructed techniques, ensuring a ready and resilient workforce.

To enhance the utility and visibility of your HB&B™ Movement Prep Routines, we provide an electronic Movement Prep Poster. This visual guide, detailing essential Movement Prep exercises, is specifically crafted for display in the dynamic spaces where Industrial Athletes work. Its design serves as a quick reference and promotes consistent practice of movement preparation, fostering a culture of safety and physical readiness in the workplace.

Refresh - Reinforce - Amplify

HB&B™ offers an ongoing series of concise, focused micro-sessions, each about 5 minutes long, targeting specific safe movements and actions.

These sessions aim to REFRESH the fundamentals and strengthen the HB&B™ Foundation, further REINFORCE correct muscle memory and proper, efficient, safe movement as the default action, and AMPLIFY this knowledge with additional practical actions, tips, tools, and exercises.

This comprehensive approach empowers each team member with the necessary tools for optimal safety in performance. With twelve sessions, a new one can be introduced each month, facilitating continuous improvement and safety reinforcement throughout the year.

The consultation phase begins with off-site groundwork, including research, review, and interviews, leading to a detailed on-site analysis. This involves examining the specific tasks, movements, and workstation setups of your Industrial Athletes alongside discussions with selected employees, including EHS/HR personnel.

Our process integrates observation, assessment, and collaborative planning with industry experts. The result is a precise review of findings, a needs assessment, and a custom proposal for teaching modules aimed at your unique injury prevention needs. This thorough preparation ensures the training is informative, highly relevant, and impactful, fostering significant safety and performance enhancements.

Our program conducts detailed on-site evaluations to pinpoint the specific actions and body movements needed for job tasks. By integrating input and live demonstrations from selected Industrial Athletes and involving EHS/HR experts, we customize the training to reflect real workplace scenarios.

This approach ensures our training is relevant and fully aligned with the participant’s work environment. We adopt their language and actively involve them in the training through live or digital formats. Selected Industrial Athletes demonstrate how newly learned skills apply directly to their job tasks, significantly boosting the training's practicality, engagement, and overall impact.
