EXPH11-105: Assessment, Prescription and Delivery of Exercise 1

This foundational subject bridges the gap between scientific theory and professional practice. Aligned with ESSA Accredited Exercise Scientist standards, students master the end-to-end process of client management: from pre-exercise screening and risk stratification to comprehensive fitness assessment and the design of safe, evidence-based "first-dose" exercise prescriptions. Using a longitudinal "Anchor Case" model, students apply physiological and biomechanical principles to design programs for general populations, addressing cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, and flexibility. The curriculum emphasises professional documentation, culturally safe communication, and the practical instruction skills required to work effectively as a future Exercise Physiologist.
