module 3 discussion hwb

I got assigned scenario 5 with muscle group hamstrings
Instructions:
Read the following discussion and answer all the prompts.

In this discussion, you will prescribe an exercise appropriate for your client, demonstrate the exercise, and explain why you chose the exercise. Complete the following two parts for your initial post, then follow the instructions when commenting on your peers responses.

Part 1: Written Submission

Possible scenarios for this assignment include:

  • Scenario 1: 42 yo male who has been an exerciser life-long, recently had a knee injury and is returning to regular exercise after physical therapy and doctor’s clearance (no surgery was required)
  • Scenario 2: 28 yo female desires to become a distance runner (i.e., 10K, half marathon, full marathon, etc.), has primarily done ball sports (soccer, basketball, etc.) to this point and HIIT as her conditioning program.
  • Scenario 3: 55 yo male with a history of recent heart issues as well as a family history of heart problem, wants to lose about 50 lbs to decrease health risks and increase enjoyment in outdoor activities.
  • Scenario 4: 32 yo female who has been an exerciser life-long is returning after 2 months postpartum. She did work out during her pregnancy but now desires to regain some lost strength as well as help her body return to pre-pregnancy shape.
  • Scenario 5: 61 yo female who use to play sports and run in her 20’s and 30’s. Has done minimal exercise while her children were young and now, they are on their own. She has managed to maintain a healthy weight throughout, however. She wants to prevent loss of bone density and increase her overall strength so she can be active into retirement.
  • Muscle Groups: Quads, Hamstrings, Chest, Abdominals, Biceps, Back
  • Example: Assigned gluteal muscles “glutes” for Scenario 5 – I might have the client begin using a resistance tube for a standing (b/c I want the exercise to be weight bearing to increase bone density) rear leg lift. The tube would be anchored to a sturdy piece of equipment, then around the client’s foot or ankle (depending on what type of type I had available). I would demonstrate the exercise for her (which is the purpose of the video). I would then show a modification (perhaps the same standing exercise, without the tube) in case she struggles with the moderate version. Then I would show a progression for a few weeks+ into the future for when she is ready for more. For example, I may do the same exercise while having her first step back into a full lunge (assuming her knees feel OK with it) before performing the rear leg lift. Or, I could have her stand on a foam pad with her stable leg to challenge her balance (which is often a problem for older individuals). Feel free to be creative, but make sure your examples are logical.

Select the to randomly get your client information and muscle group. (Note: You only get one roll for your client information, you cannot re-roll this mixer to get your ideal client. Information on your random selection will be available to your instructor.) Your initial post should include:

  • State what scenario and muscle group you randomly were assigned.
  • Based on your client’s information, identify one exercise that you would prescribe to your client that addresses the muscle group you were assigned.
  • Explain why you selected this exercise. This should include a minimum of two reasons.
  • Describe how you would progress the exercise.
  • Describe how you would regress the exercise.

Part 2: Video Demonstration

Based on the exercise you selected for your client, provide a recorded video that demonstrates the exercise. In your video, you should:

  • Introduce yourself.
  • Introduce the exercise you selected and briefly state why you chose this for your client.
  • Provide appropriate explanations and instructions for your client when performing the exercise.
  • Provide any necessary precautions the client should take when doing the exercise (example: if a spot is necessary, or if there are safety guards for the exercise).

Your video should be uploaded to your MIX YouTube account and the link should be shared in your initial post. See the found in the Orientation Module in eCampus.

Initial Post: Post one substantive original response to this prompt by the day and time specified on the Course Calendar.

Type D3: your first and last name as the title of your post.

Suggested format for your post:

I was assigned the muscle group of (add muscle group) with scenario (add scenario number) as follows: (paste scenario here).

I would suggest (add the exercise you chose) for this scenario. This exercise targets (add all muscle groups utilized during the exercise).

(Explain why you feel the exercise you selected is appropriate for the client scenario in 3 or more sentences.)

Provide a thorough description of how to perform the basic exercise, a progression and a regression as follows

Initially, I would have the client start by (explanation of basic exercise). To regress this, (add description). To progress this, (add description).

Response Post: Post one substantive response to a classmate’s discussion post throughout the week following the described in the Course Syllabus before the due date and time specified on the Course Calendar.
