Stop Guessing. Start Exercise Muscle Testing.
Most personal trainers, strength coaches, therapists and doctors and weight-training athlete look at a movement and guess why it’s failing. As a professional, you need to know.
Join me, Dr. Ken Kinakin, for a deep-dive, 8-hour intensive workshop where we strip away the theory and get into the trenches of Weight Training Sports Medicine with Exercise Muscle Testing. This is the foundational certification for the next generation of elite health and fitness professionals.
The SWIS Exercise Muscle Testing Framework. In one high-impact day, you will learn:
To bridge the gap between assessing 4 dysfunctional mechanisms, tissue specific rehabilitation and performance training
The 27 Critical Exercise Muscle Tests: Master the specific exercise muscle tests for the 27 most common upper and lower body exercises. Never wonder if a muscle is functional enough for a load again.
Isometric Rehab Exercise (IRE): Learn the exact protocol to instantly address weaknesses and restore restricted ranges of motion.
Energetic Rehabilitation: Unlock the advanced techniques using multipolar magnets that allow for faster recovery and neurological "re-booting" of inhibited muscles.
Biochemical Rehabilitation: Utilize high concentration Topical Magnesium with specific essential oils to allow the muscle to contract optimally and decrease tightness instantly.
Your SWIS Evolution as a Fitness and Health Professional isn't just another certification, it’s leveling up your career.

What Is Exercise Muscle Testing?
Exercise Muscle Testing was designed to teach you specific muscle tests for each weight training exercise to determine if the muscles are functional and capable of handling the stress of the weight training exercise. Daily practice and use of the muscle tests taught will allow you to take your assessment and training techniques to the next level and enable you to become a more advanced trainer,doctor or therapist.
Objectives:
Exercise Muscle Testing consists of three learning objectives:
• You will learn how and why the body develops imbalances and dysfunctions in the muscle, joint, nerve and biochemistry that may affect training.
• You will discover how to pinpoint muscle, joint, nerve and biochemistry problems through the weight training muscle tests
• You will learn specific rehab protocols for the imbalances and dysfunctions in the body.
