Calendar Description
An extension of
BPK 143, Exercise Management, designed to provide students with an opportunity
to appreciate principles of exercise leadership, assess individual fitness
needs, design programs and monitor effects of prescribed exercise. The course includes a 34-hour practicum.
Extended Description
This course
is designed to give students an in-depth knowledge of fitness evaluation and
counselling. In addition to
examining the scientific validity of numerous fitness tests, the practicality
of their use in the fitness industry will be discussed. The course also covers the design of
exercise regimes for the general public.
The course hopes to bridge the gap between academic and practical issues
in the areas of fitness evaluation and appraisal. This course is intended for any student
who has an interest in the area of fitness evaluation and guidance, be that
interest directed towards health care, research, the fitness industry or
education.
