Learning Circuit Training
ByYesterday I mentioned that I have moved 2 of my classes forward to this weekend. Which is true, I have.
So here is what im doing tomorrow, on my day off from work
Circuit Training:
What does the module cover?
* Health and safety
* Designing warm ups and cool downs for a circuits class
* Circuit class formats and variations
* The safe instruction of cardiovascular, muscular strength and endurance exercises for circuit classes
* Class management
* Application of effective coaching skills
* The principles of overload
Fortunately there is no assessment for this, I will just get a Certificate of attendance, and that will allow me to teach Circuit Classes, simples. It will also give me a few extra REP’s points, which I still need to find out what exactly that is all about.
Sunday, I will be up bright and early and will learn Torso Training and Core Stability:
What does the module cover?
* Health and safety
* Anatomy and Kinesiology of the torso
* Muscle balance and posture
* The application of strength and stability exercises
* Traditional torso exercises
* Myths and misunderstandings
* Adaptations and progressions in various contexts
* Use of equipment such as stability balls, benches and steps
* Kinaesthetic awareness techniques
Not to sure how exactly this will fit in with anything, obviously having a good understanding of the Torso etc will come in handy for Ab classes and Power Plate sessions. Again no assessment needed for this.
Both courses are at the same place as my Gym Instructor course, over at Esporta Riverside (nice, poncy gym) and are through Future Fit.
Shall let you know how it goes on Monday (yes, 3 posts in 5 days)
