Overview of Training Sessions

  • Purpose of Training Sessions: The training sessions are designed to apply everything learned during the course in a practical setting.
  • Nature of the First Training Session:
    • It's an opportunity to familiarize oneself with exercises, not graded.
    • Aimed at giving students a chance to "get their feet wet" in applying the learned concepts.

Importance of Quiz Seven

  • Quiz Seven Details:
    • Acts as a comprehensive review of all material covered during the course.
    • Content includes various muscular and exercise concepts learned.

Key Concepts for Successful Completion

  • Understanding Muscle Groups:

    • Grips: Different grip types (wide grip, closed grip) significantly alter muscle engagement and joint dynamics.
    • Students must effectively demonstrate understanding of these grips in applications.
  • Exercise Naming Convention:

    • Students must accurately name exercises in quizzes and practical exams.
    • Common mistakes include using vague or incorrect terminology.
    • Examples of unacceptable names:
    • "dumbbell lateral flexion"
    • "cable abduction"
    • "barbell shoulder extension"
    • Actionable Requirement: Always provide the precise name of an exercise.
    • Failure to do so could result in a loss of points on quizzes.

Quiz Structure

  • Visual Components in Quizzes:
    • Quizzes will present two images (A and B) showing a specific exercise.
    • Students must identify discrepancies or mistakes in the execution of these exercises.

Stretching and Muscle Focus

  • Assignment Requirements:
    • For Assignment Number Three, students were required to focus on one specific muscle to demonstrate proper stretching techniques.
    • Mistakes commonly made include attempting to tackle groups of muscles rather than focusing on a single muscle.

Additional Notes

  • Preparation for Final Exam: Students should review concepts regularly and understand the distinctions among different exercises and their names to avoid penalties during assessments.
  • Clarifications: Students encouraged to ask questions about any uncertainties, particularly regarding exercise execution and terminology.
