Exercise And Special Populations Course

Exercise And Special Populations Course

Course Description

Children, the elderly and pregnant women are the most-overlooked and under-exercised population groups because of their different needs when it comes to exercise. This makes specialist training vital.

  • Fulfilling their needs and understanding the increased risks in training these groups will allow you to be a better exercise trainer.
  • Having specialist training regarding special populations also equips you to plan successful and carefully tailored classes that serve the unique needs of your clients.
  • Our Specialised Populations and Exercise Certification allows you to effectively manage these developmental exercise programmes.

The course includes the Exercise Science Certification to create a bundled course thus making sure that you’re appropriately equipped with the knowledge you need to be a world-class fitness professional.
