Athletic Injuries & Prevention: 11 & 12th grade

Students will learn to critically evaluate acute and chronic conditions associated with the human body’s responses to exercise. Students will pre-screen individuals to identify the benefits and risks associated with physical activity. Students will coordinate exercise tests in order to measure body compositions, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength/endurance, and flexibility. Emphasis is placed on developing conditioning programs that address pre-assessment needs, enhance mobility and build muscle strength.
