The course covers the following areas:
- methods of collecting participant information
- principles of screening participants prior to exercise including the use of the physical activity readiness questionnaire (par-q)
- how to use participant information to assist with the planning of safe and effective group circuit training sessions
- how to use music to enhance group circuit training sessions.
You must hold a Level 2 Gym Instructor qualification to do this course.
You will be assessed via a short assignment that combines both a practical and written element.
