Exercise science internship programming project.
Create a program based off of the programming project instructions. The setting of my project is a general outpatient physical therapy clinic.
Programming Project
Description: Developing safe and effective training programs to enhance athletic performance based on current evidence includes:
– An in-depth needs analysis allows the strength and conditioning coach or sports scientist to identify what physical qualities are most important for their athlete to perform well in their sport
– Physiology Fitness Assessment: Conducting and interpreting cardiorespiratory fitness assessments (e.g., measuring HR, measuring blood pressure, cycle ergometer submaximal tests, calculating VO2max)
– Proper assessment of performance factors and biomechanical screens for the purpose of improving performance and preventing injury
– Proper training program and periodization planning for the purpose of improving performance
– Proper resistance training prescription for the purpose of improving performance and preventing injury
– Proper metabolic conditioning prescription for the purpose of improving performance
