Implementing and Planning Fitness Training.

I am a personal fitness trainer who has to plan and implement four training sessions (two each) for my two nearest clients.

I will start off by producing a pre-exercise questionnaire and find out the clients aims and objectives.

Terri Turner:

Terri Turners aims and objectives are to increase her cardiovascular level of fitness. This means we will mainly be working on endurance training sessions. She stated that her level of fitness is not very high so I will be starting off with light training sessions suited to her level of fitness.

Results of previous fitness tests (endurance related, testing V02 max)

Coopers 12 minute run: 1800m V02 max = 51.58

Multistage fitness test: 8.2 V02 max = 40.5

These results show that Terri is capable to participate in moderate training sessions. I am sure the training will be safe as she hasn't stated any health problems she has had in the past and is already relatively fit.

The component of fitness I will be focussing on is endurance, to increase the distance and speed of a run which could improve the fitness test results ...
