The health and fitness industry is becoming increasingly important and dominant in today’s society. There should always be a demand for jobs and career in this industry as people strive to lead healthier, active lifestyles.

The need to be fit and healthy is an essential commodity of life. People are constantly looking for ideas and solutions on how to lose weight, how to exercise safely and what exercise to do. This course offers you the chance to understand what you can do and ultimately need to do in order to lead a healthier lifestyle. It gives you the theoretical knowledge and offers practical ideas on how to set about shaping yours and others’ lifestyles in order to increase health and fitness.

The course will first of all focus on gaining a sound knowledge base on what we mean by the concepts Health, Exercise and Fitness. It will address the essential components of fitness and examine how these can be tested. The ability to take part in exercise depends on your level of fitness which can be improved through regular training and exercise. Methods of training will be analysed to give practical ideas on what type of training you can do and how to do it. Guidance will be given on how to plan training programmes and sessions effectively. Practical examples of training programmes and sessions will be included.

This course will also look at factors that affect sporting performance both physiology and psychologically. These factors will determine how improved fitness levels and healthier lifestyles are achieved.

One unit will focus on the impact of diet and nutrition on health and fitness. Essential nutritional requirements will be looked at and how to compose a balanced diet. The dietary requirements of an athlete will also be studied.

Injury will be covered in another unit. Ways of preventing injury will be evaluated and discussed. You will gain an insight into how to recognise and treat different injuries and this will prepare you with basic first aid knowledge. N.B. Completing this course does not mean that you are First Aid qualified.

There will be seven units that will give you detailed knowledge about the different body systems and how they enable us to exercise, and the effects that exercise has on them. These units will give you a clear understanding of how your body is structured, how the body organs work and how the different systems work in unison to ensure your body functions effectively and to its maximum potential.

The final unit looks at the role of stress and anxiety on sporting performance. It gives an insight into the physiological and psychological characteristics of these two closely connected forms of tension. You will be given practical ideas on how to cope with and manage stress.

At the end of this course you will be able to plan exercise and nutritional programmes for individuals taking into account their individual differences in terms of age, gender, weight and fitness level.
