Part 3 Personal Fitness Growth Portfolio and Exercise Log

There are two parts to this. Part 1. is to create a useable full body workout, which includes resistance, cardio, and flexibility. The intent is to get you moving toward your immediate goals starting this week. Continue to upgrade and enhance the routine in order to meet goals by the end of the term. You will complete this using the personal growth portfolio excel exercise log template, included below as an attachment. Your plan must include resistance, cardio, and flexibility submitted in a table format using the excel log provided. Several sample files have been provided to give you an idea of how to get started, and you may use it if you choose. You can use home exercises, workout videos, whatever you are able to do right now. For the excel exercise log remember to: State the type of workout. (For example, full body circuit, upper body/lower body split, push/pull split, 3 day split, etc.) State goals. Calculate target heart rate, and state what method you used (age predicted max or resting heart rate reserve). On strength training, label the primary body part worked and the exercise chosen. Minimum of one exercise for each of the following body parts: chest, back, shoulders, biceps, triceps, core, hamstrings, quads, and calves. You need to know your muscle groups even if you are doing a home workout. The exercise must be appropriate for the stated primary body part. For example, a pull up is a back exercise, not a bicep exercise; push- ups are for the chest, not triceps. Use the FITT principle. Frequency – how often (number of times per week); Intensity – how hard (sets and repetitions); Time – how long (**Time is not essential for traditional weight training. This is more for circuits at 40 sec interval or isometric holds etc.); Type – what kind of exercise (cable bicep curls or dumbbell flat bench). For Cardiovascular exercise, use the FITT principle. Frequency – how often (number of times per week); Intensity – (% of max heart rate or actual beats per min; mileage can also demonstrate intensity); Time – how long (30min, 60min, etc.); Type – what kind of exercise (run, walk, bike, swim, etc.) For flexibility, state time of hold and a minimum of 3 stretches.

Part 2. is to complete the personal fitness growth portfolio reflection at the end of the term. For each question in the reflection provide a 3 – 5 sentence response and submit both files to this folder.
