1. Goals
Some goals for my novice patient is to strengthen their core and structural power through
body weight exercises and some machine workouts. My patient is novice because they
are just starting to workout 3 weeks ago and has trouble going to the gym everyday
because they have stated that they have been going around 2 times a week. They stated a
couple of their own goals that are to move from body weight training to light resistance
training by the end of the year and they want too be more self confident. They also want
2. Assessment
To assess my patient I will use body weight exercises to see a baseline of their physical
squats.
3. Analysis of needs
The patient has good mobility and but has had a few injuries in his past. He broke his
wrist do to his sport and broke his ankle. Since recovering from them from years ago he
hasn’t had any problems with them. His injury potential was tested with a couple of
resistance exercises and he has low injury potential due to his scores and his ability top
a. Physiologically the patient needs muscular endurance priorities first and then needs
b. Should be working out 2-3 times per week, we will be using around 65% of their 1
RM because we will be focusing on muscular endurance first and will going for 12 of
more repetitions for 2-3 sets, but since they’re a new patient we will be sticking or
c. The exercises our novice patient will be doing is a forward step lunge, box jumps, leg
extensions on a machine, leg curls on a machine and calf raises. The reason I choose
these workouts is because they are specific to his sport and they are some easy
exercises to get some basic movements down and most of them can be used with
body weight of even with weight on a bar after my patient gets the correct movements
5. Special Population
A special population that I would look at is older adults, because this plan would chance
ever so slightly. The only thing I would change is probably more cardio exercises such
as the bike, a walk outside or even on the treadmill. I would have to consider all the
any form of medication that can change their heart rate or the thinness of their blood I
would have them ask their doctor if it’s ok for them to workout on such medicines and if
they can it would be light intensity and mostly cardio exercises because I don’t want to
put too much stress on their body and have a series health problem while they are
working out.
