GB FITNESS/N.A.B.B.A. ADVANCED GYM INSTRUCTOR COURSE
£599 inc ....manual, tuition, exam, certificate and 1 years membership to NABBA
2 full weekends attendance for classroom/gym tuition. Plus a full day for a written theory examination followed by a practical assessment.
A comprehensive course that takes you up to a high standard of Instructor enabling you to fully assess a new client (including health screening, bodyfat analysis, blood pressure and heart rate), construct an individual program (based on personal history and goals and to incorporate stretching, resistance training with correct techniques and cardio-vascular conditioning as well as basic dietary advice). The knowledge of anatomy and physiology that is taught will back up the information you give out.
* Basic Anatomy & Physiology - covering circulatory, energy, skeletal and muscular systems.
* Principles and effects of training - on musculature, metabolism, blood pressure, resting heart rate etc.
* Use of free weights, resistance machines and cardio-vascular equipment - to include detailed instruction on lifting techniques and the muscles involved. Also included are warm up, mobility and workout stretch techniques.
* Construction of programs for muscle gain, fat-loss and general fitness (with general nutrition advice).
* Health and safety issues (including health and activity history of clients, body-fat testing, resting pulse rate, blood pressure etc. as well as spotting techniques and gym etiquette).
Assessment and subsequent certificate award will be by means of a practical assessment including client appraisal as well as demonstration of sound knowledge on exercise prescription and demonstration of technique. There will also be a written theory exam to verify underpinning knowledge on anatomy and physiology, exercise protocols and safety issues. We at GB Fitness feel the 'multiple-choice' system of testing is a poor reflection of the student's knowledge and does not lead to the best of communication between client and trainer. Our students can pride themselves on 'knowing' their topic and 'thinking' through issues to create the best result possible.
