Globe University/Minnesota School of Business is the only college in the U.S.A. that has access to the Muscle Activation TechniquesTM (MAT) Jumpstart program.
Through this unique training, students in our Health Fitness Specialist bachelor's degree program receive the tools to evaluate biomechanical imbalances that can lead to repetitive stress and chronic overuse injuries.
Learn to restore body alignment, improve function and relieve pain through MAT Jumpstart
The Muscle Activation TechniquesTM Jumpstart program is approved by the American Council on Exercise (ACE) and American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) for CECs. Students learn that exercise can lead to dysfunction and that muscle tightness is secondary to muscle weakness. Muscle Activation TechniquesTM training teaches students how to identify and eliminate positional weakness that may lead to injury. As trainers, they will be able to prove that what they are doing is actually working. This is science-based, hands-on training — the type of training Globe University/Minnesota School of Business is known for.
