Writing a Personal Exercise Prescription

Created by Mr. Ramezane in accordance with CA P.E. Standards for 8th

Grade

CA 8th Grade Standards Addressed

3.1 Assess the 5 components of health-related physical fitness by using a scientifically based health-related physical fitness assessment.

3.2 Refine individual personal physical fitness goals for each of the five components of health- related physical fitness, using research-based criteria.

4.2 Identify appropriate physical activities that can be performed if one ﾕ s physical fi tness program is disrupted by inclement weather, travel from home or school, or a minor injury.

4.3 Identify ways of increasing physical activity in routine daily activities.

4.4 Identify and apply basic principles in weight resistance training and safety practices.

The Task

• Throughout this lesson you will be learning and expanding your knowledge on techniques that are involved in writing a personal exercise prescription.

• Your quest, if you choose to accept it, is to create and implement an exercise program tailored to eighth grade students.

• The physical education department of Lawson Middle School has hired you. You are now the personal trainer for the physical education classes.

• To accomplish your job, you will have to provide the students with background information on training principles, target heart rate, goal setting ideals etc.

The Task cont’d.• You are going to provide this information to either two

different training ideals. • Choose either:

– Muscular Endurance or Muscular Strength• Each type of training involves different workout

regimens. • Training for muscular endurance type activities would

help maintain your current look. • Training for muscular endurance type activities would

give you added strength along with a bulkier look.• You will be broken up into two groups focusing on either

topic. • Remember to report activities that can be done both

alone and with a group, not just one or the other.

Process

• Students will use the web to search and answer the health-related fitness terms

• After evaluating the Internet information, you will make a fitness circuit specific to their program.

• You may use equipment from the provided list or provide their own.

• Students may present their information to the class either manner:– Multimedia

Presentations– Physical walk-through

(recommended)• We will spend two days

in the computer lab, one day compiling a list of the equipment, and two days with your group preparing your presentations. Presentations will take place next week.

Health Related Fitness: Five Components

• Cardiovascular Endurance

• Muscular Strength

• Muscular Endurance

• Flexibility• Body Composition

• Find definitions to each of the following components of Health Related Fitness.

• Provide an example of an activity that relates to each of the five listed items.

5 Principles of Exercise Prescription

• Overload• Progression• Specificity• Recuperation• Reversibility

• What are the definitions of the principles of exercise prescription?

• Give examples.

Maximum Heart Rate

(HRmax) is calculated with this formula =

• What is that formula?

• What is Maximum Heart Rate and why is it important in terms of cardiovascular training?

Steps to Setting up an Exercise Program

• 1. Needs Analysis

• 2. Set Goals

• 3. Pick Activities

• 4. Evaluation (re-evaluate)

• What is needed for your desired outcome?

• Name at least six important factors in setting goals.

• Remember to include; Warm-up, primary activity, cool-down

• Is it working? Modify? Fitness testing?

Writing Your Fitness Circuit

• Needs Analysis• Set Goals - Muscular Endurance, Muscular Strength

• Pick Activities• Evaluate, does it meet the criteria

• Be Creative• Use provided list as a guide only, provide at least five of your own exercises from your searches.

Evaluation: Things to Consider

• Each prescription should be tailored to the component selected: Muscular Strength or Muscular Endurance

• Does the prescription take into account people of like ability or varied ability?

• If someone has a handicap can they participate in this activity?

• Are your sources listed?• Did you find other websites that were not included that were helpful? If so, list them.

• Be creative, include exercises that you find you enjoy. Do not list the first one you find without evaluating it’s merit.

Evaluation: Grading• This project is worth 100 points of your quarter grade (25%

overall).• Grading is as follows:

– Complete thorough definitions of terms (25 pts.)– Goal Setting Principles (5 pts.)– Maximum Heart Rate information (5 pts.)– Fitness Circuit Sheet (10 pts.)– Correct list of equipment for exercises (5 pts.)– Sources? Referenced correctly (5 pts.)– Presentation (50 pts.)

• Originality (5 pts.)• Deliverance (10 pts.)• Captured audience (10 pts.)• Eye contact (5 pts.)• Use of equipment (5 pts.)• Correct demonstration of exercises (15 pts.)

Conclusion

• The students that participate in this assignment will understand the following:– Components of Health-Related Fitness

– Principles of Exercise Prescription

– Goal Setting Principles

– Evaluating Fitness Prescriptions

– Correct Demonstration of Exercises

• Further Analysis:– Could you have presented information differently?

– Did you find other beneficial websites when you where searching?

– If you changed roles in the group, would the results been the same?
