Outlines and differentiates the basic types of injury sustained during fitness or sporting-related activities. Injuries studied include muscular injuries, ligamentous injuries, fractures and dislocations, as well as closed-head injuries (concussions.) Basic principles of management of these injuries will be developed, though course scope does not approach clinical management. Rather, a thorough understanding of the injury process, the tissues involved, and their typical healing times and response is the focus of IAI. Students will also learn exercise principles in rehabilitation of athletic injuries and basic taping and splinting. Ability to search the current literature via online resources, evaluate strength of research (based on principles taught at the onset of ASEC), and presenting research concerning "Evidence-Based Practice: (EBP) will be included.
Covers skills, knowledge, techniques, and strategies specific to health and performance related to physical fitness. This is applicable to both personal fitness programs and educational settings. This course addresses the scientific basis of designing exercise programs for healthy individuals. Principles of overload, progression, and specific are covered as well as intensity, frequency, duration, and mode. Various methods of training (endurance, interval, resistance, cross-training) are feathered. Ability to search the current literature via online resources, evaluate strength of research (based on principles taught at the onset of ASEC), and presenting research concerning "evidence-based practice" (EBP) would be included.
