...The Fit Shop The Fit Shop Ltd. is a brand new firm that will open its doors exactly four months from today. Its business objective is to sell all types of training, fitness, conditioning, and exercise equipment to the general public. The Fit Stop plans to specialize in this equipment and to provide customers with personalized advice geared to a customer's specific training or conditioning needs (e.g. training for a particular sport, rehabilitation from injuries, strengthening of specific muscle groups to deal with back pain, general conditioning and fitness), regardless of the age of the customer. In order to provide high quality advice, each store will employ a physiotherapist (to provide advice on problems such as injuries or chronic back pain) and a person with a bachelor's degree in kinesiology (to provide advice on training for various sports or other physical activities). In fact, a staff member will even sit down with customers and develop a personalized training or conditioning program that meets their own specific objectives and needs at no cost to the customer upon purchase of equipment. The remainder of the staff in the store will consist of a manager, with a Bachelor of Commerce degree, and sales staff, who will have at least a high school diploma. Due to the long opening hours, it is expected that between 8 and 12 salespeople will be needed for each store. Because the stores are located in shopping malls, they will operate on a seven-day-a-week basis...

Exercise provides health benefits, increases strength and energy, enhances a person’s appearance, which helps with self-esteem and also relieves stress. A major health benefit from exercising is reducing the risk of heart disease. Exercise will help increase the HDL (good cholesterol) to LDL (bad cholesterol) ratio. Estimates are that 96.8 million American adults (51 percent) have blood cholesterol values of 200 mg/dL and higher. About 37.7 million American adults (20 percent) have levels of 240 or above. By having physical activity, the efficiency of the heart and lungs is increased. As a person’s level of fitness increases blood pressure will decrease therefore lowering high blood pressure. Exercise also controls diabetes by increasing insulin efficiency. A person’s body is protected against osteoporosis when exercising because bone mass is increased. Studies done on the bone density of broken limbs have shown that in just 2 months, a bone can lose 5 percent of its mass. Astronauts have also shown similar loses when subjected to weightlessness. By exercising frequently, a person’s joints, tendons, and ligaments are more flexible promoting easy unrestricted movement. This will increase a person’s sense of balance and agility. Exercise also helps expedite the movement of the nutrients to the cells and the toxins from the cells improving digestion and elimination. The endurance and energy...

...Physical Fitness Routine Introduction The first, and most important step in beginning to look for workout routines and eating healthier, is setting realistic short and long term goals. In order for a person to find a workout routine that works best for them, they have to consider the time they can dedicate to the routine, and most importantly, their motivation to lose weight and develop a healthier lifestyle. There are three basic levels of workouts in reference to workout routines, which are beginner, intermediate, and advanced. By choosing and sticking with a realistic and efficient physical fitness routine, you will achieve a healthier lifestyle and benefit your life in several ways. Steps The first step to obtaining a proper workout routine is to decide what exercises to utilize for which muscle group. The second step is to determine how many repetitions and sets to do for each exercise. The final step to achieve the best workout for you is to figure out how many days out of the week you are going to dedicate for the gym. In the figure 1, I have included a sample workout for my back and biceps as a guide to what a workout for those muscle groups should include, such as exercises, sets, and repetitions. Figure 1 | Muscle Group | Exercise | Sets | Repetitions | Weight | Back | Lower back extensions | 4 | 10 | 110 lbs | Back | Lateral pull downs | 4 | 10 | 90 lbs | Back | Cable rows | 4 | 10 | 75 lbs | Biceps | Hammer curls | 4 | 10 | 35 lb dumbbells...

...activity intervention would be recognizing that the students are just beginning college. Most students enrolled in EXSS 1000 are incoming freshmen that are just moving to college and are probably not yet settled into their new lifestyle. EXSS 1000 students also probably do not have a full understanding that exercise has long-term benefits for health and is not just a method to help avoid the “freshmen-fifteen.” When designing a physical activity intervention for a client, it is always important to consider their current level of physical fitness. The students of these exercise classes will have various levels of physical fitness, but overall, everyone should be healthy enough to participate in some type of exercise program. Because we are in North Carolina, a state that has one of the highest obesity rates in the US, the students of these classes may be less fit than normal fit averages. In turn, not only do we need to look at the specific fitness levels of the students but also at the general perception of exercise that a college student would hold. The clients need to be able to see how easily they can increase their physical activity. The more apparent it is made to them that they can add physical activity into their daily routines, the more likely they are to adopt a more active lifestyle. We are all faced with unforeseen barriers that may inhibit our ability to accomplish our goals. These barriers are often new to these incoming students now that they are in a much...

...Fitness Training Most fitness and training facilities now have stability balls, foam rolls, balance boards and other "fun" toys as part of their conditioning equipment. These are part of a new trend in the strength and conditioning field called "functional training". Definition Functional training is the action of training "function", a general term that meaning "role or duty". Functional training is the science of training the body to meet the specific demands of life and sports. It is based on 1) the principle of specificity and 2) muscle function. The principle of specificity also known as SAID (Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands) means that the body responds and adapts specifically to the type and amount of physical demands under which it is placed. In other words, you only improve what you've specifically trained. Since muscle form dictates the role and function of each muscle, muscle needs to be trained the way it is designed to function. Origin Functional training is nothing new and comes primarily from the rehabilitation field. For many decades, therapists have been experimenting with ways of helping their patients regain function. Their goal is to retrain muscles to work properly using special exercises. In their quest to help their patients to become more functional, they have a developed functional training approach. Traditional vs. Functional Traditional strength training usually consists of trying to develop strength and build muscle through isolating specific...
