-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: At least one course in exercise physiology or consent of instructor Designed to address strategies essential to the development of successful exercise and health fitness programs. Emphasis will be placed on program development, motivational techniques and administrative considerations.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PHED 204 and PHED 400 and PHED 401; or consent of instructor This course consists of a study in the procedures used to train and coach athletes to enhance their musculoskeletal fitness through strength and conditioning. Specific emphasis will be placed on power lifting, Olympic-style lifting, dynamic flexibility, plyometrics, agility training, and sports specific training. Lecture, laboratory and out-of-class observation and field work time will be conducted weekly over the entire semester. Spring semester.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will give the sports professional an understanding of the legal system as a whole and the unique legal problems and responsibility faced in managing a sports activity. The sports professional will be educated to identify potential legal liability, to avoid unnecessary legal risks and to minimize legal loss exposure.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PHED 324 or equivalent An in- depth study of etiologies, classifications and functional motor abilities of chronic medical conditions will be presented. Topics will include asthma, cystic fbrosis, epilepsy, cancer, obesity, diabetes, arthritis, multiple sclerosis and muscular dystrophy. The course will also emphasize unique physiological, psychological and biochemical characteristics pertaining to motor development, sport and leisure.
-
3.00 Credits
This course addresses the etiologies, prevalence, characteristics and functional motor abilities of moderate and severe disabilities. Attention is given to an overview of moderate and severe populations, spinal cord injured and amputees. The course will also address such related topics as bloodborn pathogens, screening and assessment methods, related professional services, leisure placement strategies, due process, advocacy and legal considerations.
-
3.00 Credits
Emphasis will be placed on the strategies utilized to develop physiological capacities, underlying motor skills, as well as the physiological variations induced by these stimuli. The course will necessarily concern cardiovascular endurance, strength, muscular endurance, flexibility and body composition from the perspective of physiology.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will provide students with knowledge of the effects of various heavy resistance training protocols on musculoskeletal integrity, metabolic capacity and various specific tissue characteristics in the human body. Thus, the course necessarily considers micro-anatomical and physiological variations associated with general strength-conditioning programs, body building, Olympic lifting, power lifting, circuit training, isotonic and isometric resistance training.
-
3.00 Credits
Students will utilize a number of laboratory techniques to assess fitness capabilities and health status of normal subjects. Focus will be on standardization of procedures and collection of reliable and valid data. An additional concern will be clear representation and interpretation of classical techniques used to routinely assess physical fitness in the laboratory. Summer only.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: An introductory course in exercise physiology or consent of instructor This course is designed to provide the sport practitioner, e.g., the coach, athlete, team trainer, and physical educator, with a basic understanding of the physiologic principles underlying the physical conditioning process. Methods of planning, implementing and evaluating training programs will be the main focus of attention.
-
1.00 Credits
This course provides students with a knowledge and understanding of the mechanical concepts underlying performance of motor skills. Focus is on analytic techniques, which allow students to analyze skills and effectively consume complex skill analyses conducted by others. Fall semester, alternate years.
