Students will be instructed on the proper use of all equipment, with an emphasis on proper form. Basic muscular anatomy and physiology will be covered, to give students the background knowledge necessary for understanding many weight training principles. Information on nutrition and cardiovascular exercise will be covered as well. The daily class format will consist of a review of the assigned reading, a brief lecture, a class lift demonstration, and a great deal of individual student training. Remember, this is an activity class, so participation is required.
Students are responsible for all readings, and most material presented in class.
Students will also be responsible for designing their own weight training program.
