14.3. PROGRAMS DESIGNING FOR HEALTHY ADULTS

LECTURE To the question "what can and what should a personal training program contain?", There is one answer, and it is quite obvious: Everything ... everything ... everything! Everything, of course, depending on:

the health status of the trainee,
his level of experience and fitness,
wishes,
its goals and needs,
available space,
the instruments available,
time available and
his weekly workout frequency.

Given that rarely does a person workout more than 2-3 times a week and rarely more than 60 minutes at a time (usually 45-60 minutes), each training unit (daily program) of a healthy practitioner should usually include

and functional exercises
and strengthening exercises
and aerobic - cardiopulmonary exercises
and flexibility / flexibility exercises,

at different rates of quantity and time, more often than not, and each other so that all these parts / units are in harmony within the 45-60 minutes available to you. As a result, the personal trainer - you! - must be aware of the most sophisticated and scientific training methods that offer complete training according to the needs of the trainee and maximize the expected results, both of the types and methods used. and more demanded by practitioners ("popular"). Despite the obvious difficulties, the design of the program needs to be based on the principles of progressivity in load, periodicity / cyclicality (as far as practicable) and variety - variety is not only about efficiency but, above all, efficiency. maintaining a vigorous interest in exercise and a desire for more frequent repetition. Guidance/Guideline: In any training program, the safety of the trainee is paramount. Muscles and joints are at risk of injury when undergoing intense training for which they are not properly prepared - "sudden" and "abrupt" almost always result in injury. Remember that the training program (training unit) starts at the first movement of the trainee (warm-up) and ends at the last (recovery). Consequently, each training unit / training should be divided into sections (modules) which clearly state what the trainee will do as a warm-up, as a main program (sections / modules - detailed content) and as a recovery.
