Description
CALENDAR DESCRIPTION:
This course covers evidence-based practice and quantitative modeling skills for prescribing effective exercise programs to any individual who has a specific health, rehabilitation or performance goal. Programming considerations for various special populations (e.g., those with chronic disease, elite athletes) will be emphasized through laboratory-based case studies representing diverse professional settings such as active rehabilitation, strength & conditioning and clinical exercise physiology. Students with credit for BPK 344 or BPK 423-Advanced Exercise Prescription may not take this course for further credit.
COURSE DETAILS:
Duration: 13 weeks
Format:
2 hr lecture: Tue 4:30-6:20 pm, RCB 5125 (in-person)
2 hr lab: Tue 6:30-8:20 pm, SCK 8605 (in-person)
Labs
The labs are an integral part of the course. Several of the assignments derive directly from the labs. Therefore, please attend all labs. If you will be absent from a lab, then please inform the instructor well in advance so you can make up the lab at another time.
Most labs will involve group computer work. Please bring a laptop to class if you have one. If you do not have one, then you will be assigned to work with a partner who does.

COURSE-LEVEL EDUCATIONAL GOALS:
By the end of the course, students will be able to
- Apply professional skills:
- Define professionalism and scope of practice and describe their
- Adhere to professional and academic ethical
- Develop a career plan, including professional
- Prioritize sources of knowledge for guiding exercise programming
- Identify logical fallacies and pseudoscience in knowledge
- Apply the skills of evidence-based practice to develop exercise
- Apply alternate sources of knowledge (principles of training, physiological rationale, experience) to inform exercise programs in aspects for which research-based evidence is weak or lacking.
- Integrate knowledge of the dynamics and interactions of the positive and negative physiological and motor adaptations to common training techniques into exercise programming decisions.
- Prepare professionally formatted and comprehensive exercise programs that are coherent across the timescales (set, workout, microcycle, mesocycle, macrocycle) using software (Excel, Physiotec).
- Design and deliver exercise programs for different professional settings (personal training, physical literacy, rehabilitation, strength & conditioning, and clinical exercise physiology).
- Implement systematic data collection and analysis methods to individualize exercise
- Estimate external and internal training loads using data from portable monitoring
- Choose, implement, and interpret reliable, valid, and feasible tests for assessing the outcomes of exercise programs.
- Apply single-subject design and analysis methods for structuring the data collection, analysis, and
- Implement the impulse-response model in training analysis and
- Implement a systematic approach to coaching
- Conduct movement assessments and prescribe corrective exercises common to active
- Design and deliver activities to enhance fundamental movement

Registrar Notes:
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: YOUR WORK, YOUR SUCCESS
SFU’s Academic Integrity website http://www.sfu.ca/students/academicintegrity.html is filled with information on what is meant by academic dishonesty, where you can find resources to help with your studies and the consequences of cheating. Check out the site for more information and videos that help explain the issues in plain English.
Each student is responsible for his or her conduct as it affects the university community. Academic dishonesty, in whatever form, is ultimately destructive of the values of the university. Furthermore, it is unfair and discouraging to the majority of students who pursue their studies honestly. Scholarly integrity is required of all members of the university. http://www.sfu.ca/policies/gazette/student/s10-01.html
