Assignment Background:

The most important part of effective exercise design is the creation of a detailed plan. To maximize your fitness results and limit the risk of injury and/or overtraining/overuse, you want to create prescriptions based on the FITT and PROS principles.

Instructions Part 1, Self-Assessment FITT:

Based on the assessments you have conducted in previous units, you will now create a personalized exercise prescription for all three health-related fitness components: Cardiovascular activity, muscle strengthening, and flexibility. You will write a detailed exercise plan using the FITT principles and then create a Microsoft® PowerPoint® narrated presentation where you discuss how you will apply the PROS principles to the prescription you created.

FITT Principles: Create a detailed personalized exercise plan based on your current level of fitness and goals that includes all of the FITT principles for each area of fitness: Aerobic, muscle strengthening, and flexibility. Your exercise plan should be detailed enough so that a person could perform the plan as written. You are welcome to follow the format provided on the samples below.

Instructions Part 2, Self-Assessment PROS:

Using the exercise plan you developed in part 1, create a PowerPoint presentation with narration and discuss why using the PROS principles are important for long-term fitness improvements and how you will apply the PROS principles to the exercise plan you created. Please follow the outline below for your slides. For your narration, you should use oral communication that uses Standard English and includes a highly developed and sustained viewpoint and purpose. Communication is highly ordered, logical, and unified.
