Muscular Strength and EnduranceMuscular Strength and Endurance
To write an effective program there are a multitude of variables to consider:
• Training goal• Training experience• Appropriate volume (V = Reps x Load)• Appropriate intensity (% of 1RM)• Rest/work ratios• Exercise selection (large muscle groups followed
by smaller ones)• Proper warm-up/cool-down

Flexibility Flexibility
Flexibility is defined as the “ability to move a joint through its complete range of motion” (ACSM, 2000, p.85.).
Including flexibility training into a program may
reduce injury, facilitate activities of daily living and improve performance. Unfortunately,
flexibility training is often misunderstood and neglected.
