Fitness Testing (Thursday 7th November)
For this assessment I will be carrying out six tests on you to assess your fitness levels across different parts of physical fitness. There will be some tests which involve cardiovascular work, so you may get hot, and there will be a muscular strength/endurance test (MSE) which may be strenuous depending on which test I choose.The tests will include the skin-fold site measurement test and I will require access to certain parts of the body to ensure measurements are taken correctly (Bicep: middle of the front of the upper arm; Triceps: middle of the back of the upper arm; Subscapular: 2 cm below the shoulder blade; Super iliac: 2 cm above and 2 cm in front of the hip - midline of the body).
If you have any objection to being tested in these places please let me know.
All clothing should allow access to the areas described above. Suggested clothing:
- for women: Racer back sports bra, leggings/shorts/tracksuit bottoms;
- for men: a loose fitting vest, shorts/tracksuit bottoms.
The assessment will be carried out at the Central YMCA near Tottenham Court Road tube. Unfortunately this is a whole week day, but nearer the date I will be able to find out if it will be morning or afternoon and only need half a day of your time.
Nutrition Case Study (First Week of December)
I will need to carry out basic information gathering including height, weight, state of readiness to change, food likes and dislikes, activity likes and dislikes, present and past activity levels. I will also need you to complete a 3 – 5 day food diary which I can analyse.Timing is flexible, but I would hope to meet with you during the first week of December. The suggested deadline for my case study to be handed in for assessment is the 16th December.
If you would like to volunteer for either of these then please let me know.
