HPR176 Lifestyle Management An introductory course to physical fitness and wellness that will focus on altering a person’s present lifestyle to a healthier degree of wellness. Two major aspects of daily life affecting one’s health, exercise and diet, will be the focus. Additional topics such as stress reduction, preventing and treating exercise-related injuries, environmental effects on exercise and exercise for special populations will also be addressed. The student will be required to complete a pre-physical fitness testing to determine their fitness level. The student will develop and participate in an exercise program during the length of the course; thus, self-motivation will play an important role in completing the course. A student is NOT required to join a fitness club or gym in order to complete or pass this class. The student’s personalized exercise program can be done at home. Most of the fitness testing, lab activities and exercise can be done at home but there may be instances in which a student will have to visit a fitness center or school facility in order to complete the requirement.
