Case Study

Design a 12-week periodized training program for the client described in the Client Profile. Be very specific as you design the training programs as this is an opportunity for you to demonstrate your full comprehension of the information and concepts discussed throughout the course. List the types of exercise, duration, sets, reps, rest intervals, and so on.

Client Profile: Chad Evermore

Age 55

Gender m

Resting Heart Rate 80bpm
Chad is an avid golfer. He wishes to improve his golf game and is very motivated to get started on a training program. Chad has exercised regularly for the past 8 years and is in good physical health. Most of his exercise has been aerobic in nature with only a small amount of resistance training.

Calculate the following and reference in your program recommendations:

1.Client’s BMR/DCR
2.Target heart rate using the Karvonen formula
Include:

•A description of your professional responsibilities as discussed in the stages of the drawing-in process.
•Discussion of any fitness tests, methods of evaluation and data collection used to assess and evaluate the client’s needs.
•Explanation for your recommendations and any specific conditions presented by your client that are found in the evaluation. (Be sure to reference course concepts when discussing rationale for your recommendations.)
•A detailed 12-week comprehensive training program including specific exercises, sets, repetitions, suggested rest times, etc. Use an integrated approach in your program recommendations. USE CHARTS TO ILLUSTRATE THE TRAINING PROGRAMS.
•Specific and detailed nutritional strategies with explanation and validation for your choices as to how they will assist the client in both meeting their energy needs throughout the training program, but also in achieving their intended goal(s).

Keep in mind that a client should be able to take your program and put it into practice without having to contact you to clarify what you intended by your recommendations, or to explain some part(s) of your program.

Include an explanation for WHY you listed and recommended what you did. Reference the concepts and theories covered in the course. Be sure to address why the program and exercises recommended are appropriate for the specific client given their history, current abilities as well as their intended goal(s). For example: if you are developing a program for a beginner client without any resistance training experience, explain how your program addresses their lack of experience, initial need for a foundation of basic muscle and strength, process in which you would safely progress the client, etc. Tying your program to course concepts is a critical component of your case study.
