CMS Fitness Courses - The Essential Role of Golgi Tendon Organs in Personal Training |
![]() |
This video by @cmsfitnesscourses explores the exciting world of muscle physiology and provides an overview on how Golgi Tendon Organs (GTOs) play an essential role within our muscle system. Both our video and blog post are fantastic resources for those wanting to learn more about how our muscles work, whether you're aiming to be a personal trainer or just a fitness fan.
GTOs are important parts of our muscles. They measure the tension, or force, that our muscles produce when they tighten or stretch. Learning about this helps us avoid overworking our muscles, which is a key lesson in our online personal training courses. Our blog will help you understand how these parts of our muscles work and why they're important to our overall muscle health. Additionally, our blog explains how understanding GTOs can help you create better weight training programmes. If you gradually increase workout intensity, the GTOs can adapt to the added resistance. This helps muscles grow with less discomfort and more consistency. This approach is a core part of the idea of progressive overload and the development of a client's central nervous system. GTOs are also important for a type of stretching called Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF). GTOs and muscle spindles work together to monitor tension in the muscles. As the muscle relaxes, GTOs help it relax even more, leading to a wider range of movement. Understanding these details is a valuable part of any personal training or online coaching programme. In summary, this blog is a great opportunity for anyone interested in learning more about anatomy and physiology and how it applies to fitness training.
