Course info

This course builds on the Fitness training 1 competencies, which focused on the fundamental movement

patterns and core stabilization. Periodic conduct of fitness and movement assessments is done to determine

baseline levels for goal setting and monitoring purposes. resistance training is focused on the development of

musculoskeletal fitness core stability, muscle strength, endurance and power) through sound movement

patterns and proper lifting techniques (from body weight to external load). This is coupled with speed and

agility training with a focus on body coordination and balance. The course emphasizes exercise progression

and regression for the enhancement of movement competency and skill-related fitness components in

preparation for moderate to vigorous physical activities. In conjunction with fitness concepts, exercise and

healthy eating principles, learners will be able to enhance their fitness through exercise progression and

regression; adapt their movement competencies to independent physical activity (PA) pursuit and periodically

evaluate their PA and eating patterns to monitor their progress and achievement of personal fitness and dietary

goals.
