The Wave Workout™ Certification
The Wave Workout™, sponsored by Lifewaves®, is an innovative
natural workout approach that bases training principles on the dual
concepts of both exercise and recovery. As part of The Wave Workout
Certification program, the client exercises for brief bursts of exertion
(usually less than 1 minute) then rests until his or her heart rate
stabilizes. Each pattern, referred to as a cycle, is repeated four to
seven times and makes up The Wave Workout. The Wave Workout Certification
consists of two parts, an online component followed by a Wave Workout
workshop component. Successful completion of both online and Wave Workout
components will earn you 7 CEUs.
Prerequisites for The Wave Workout: Current AFAA certification
required, as well as current CPR before certification is issued.
