Training Program: Design a full 12-week periodized training program for the client described in the Client
Profile. Be very specific as you design the training program. This is an opportunity for you to demonstrate your
full comprehension of the information and concepts discussed throughout the course. List the types of
exercise, duration, sets, reps, rest intervals, and so on.
Include the following in your case study submission:
A description of your professional responsibilities as discussed in the stages of the drawing-in process (Unit
12)
Discussion of any fitness tests, methods of evaluation, and data collection used to assess and evaluate the
client’s needs
Specific conditions that you have identified in the client profile
A fully detailed 12-week comprehensive and periodized training program including specific exercises, sets,
Use an integrated approach in your program recommendations.
Specific and detailed nutritional strategies and an explanation as to how the strategies will assist the client in
meeting energy needs
Explanation for your chosen assessment, programming, and nutritional recommendations. (Be sure to
reference course concepts when discussing rationale for your recommendations.
Keep in mind that a client should be able to take your program and put it into practice without having to contact
you to clarify what you intended by your recommendations or to explain parts of your program.
Don’t forget your explanation for WHY you listed and recommended what you did. Reference the concepts and
theories covered in the course. Be sure to address why the program and exercises recommended are
appropriate for the specific client given the client’s history, current abilities, and intended goal(s). For example:
if you are developing a program for a beginner client without any resistance training experience, explain how
your program addresses the lack of experience, initial need for foundational development, process by which
you would safely progress the client, etc. Tying your program to course concepts is a critical component of your
case study.
