A cross pilates course for physiotherapy and physical preparation professionals from Flamengo's football team started last Monday (25), at the George Helal Training Center. The classes to train the Flamengo employees are the result of a partnership between the club and the company ISP Saúde, which provided the beds used today at the CT. Physiotherapist Fred Manhães explained how the idea for the course came about.

"At the time, they (ISP Saúde) were launching this new cross pilates equipment, which has a stronger load in the exercises and is more geared towards conditioning and rehabilitation of athletes. That's when the idea arose for us to create a course for our physiotherapy and physical preparation professionals and interns so that we can use this studio that they set up here at the training center," he stated.

Manhães praised the completion of the course, which runs until this Thursday (28), and recalled that, after the classes, the professionals will have another tool to take care of the athletes at the Center of Excellence in Performance (CEP FLA).

"The goal is to empower our professionals in both rehabilitation and physical conditioning so that we have another rehabilitation and physical conditioning tool to offer our athletes," he concluded.
