Reactive Neuromuscular Training (RNT) Drills

Here are a few RNT drills demonstrated by @the_athletes_therapist we learned at @Exoseducation that I LOVE 😍. RNT exercises are especially awesome for teenage athletes and individuals that need a little more feedback to improve body awareness and proprioception. Read more to learn why ⤵️

Reactive Neuromuscular Training (RNT) is a technique used to improve movement quality and exercise form. RNT utilizes external resistance (I.E., resistance band) to facilitate an automatic, subconscious response at the neuromuscular level. This can translate into improved movement patterns with less compensation. I love using RNT with individuals that are appropriate for it because it avoids over-cueing, complicating things, and you can get quick results with it.

RNT is commonly used at the knee to limit dynamic knee valgus. However, I love to use RNT for trunk stabilization. I see a lot of teenagers, and during/after growth spurts (think about it their body dimension is changing) ➡️ their trunk stability goes right out the window. When I see a sloppy lunge or squat, I will set up a monster band to resist trunk rotation and instantly the movement improves.
