Which is NOT a component that influences the recruitment of static and dynamic postural stabilizers?

  1. The design of a flexibility assessment and training program

  2. The use of tempo in the client's program

  3. The programming of high-intensity interval training

  4. The appropriate progression into resistance exercises

The correct answer is: The programming of high-intensity interval training

High-intensity interval training can actually have a positive influence on recruiting static and dynamic postural stabilizers. This type of training can improve muscular endurance, strength, and overall movement quality. The other options, on the other hand, can play a role in recruitment. The design of a flexibility assessment and training program can help identify and improve any imbalances or weaknesses that may affect the recruitment of stabilizers. The use of tempo in a client's program can also be adjusted to specifically target and challenge stabilizing muscles. And the appropriate progression into resistance exercises can ensure that the client is properly activating stabilizers while performing more complex movements.
