This course is designed for students that are highly motivated and have a strong desire to improve their fitness and strength training skills. It will be a high intensity class with the goal of individual improvement. There will most likely be a great disparity in the strength and skill level of the students, so best effort will be assessed individually. Topics that will be covered include flexibility, muscular strength, muscular endurance, plyometrics, linear speed development, agility, and change of direction. Students will develop a working knowledge of the muscular system and how to create a personal exercise prescription that will meet their needs at various stages of life. Related concepts that will be addressed include nutrition, body composition, and supplementation.
