The practice lessons aim to provide students with the possibility to deepen their knowledge, from a practical standpoint, in designing, conducting, tailoring, control and assessing a specific training program aimed at the maintenance of motor abilities related to health status and at improving the clinical impact of metabolic disorders.

This is a two-year course (AMDM1 and AMDM2):

• modules 1, 2 and 3 will be provided within the first year (AMDM1);
• modules 4 and 5 will be provided within the second year (AMDM2).

Module 4 (2 credits):

• theoretical-practical training in submaximal cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness assessments, flexibility and body composition, in healthy and metabolic subjects [1 credit = 10 hours: total 20 hours].

Module 5 (5 credits):

• practical training in designing, conducting, and controlling exercise programs in healthy and metabolic subjects [1 credit = 10 hours: total 40 hours].

None.

Theoretical learning outcomes

• not expected due to the practical nature of the lessons.

Practical learning outcomes. The student will possess:

• the ability to apply the theoretical concepts previously retained in prescribing and conducting, under the supervision of qualified exercise specialists, an exercise training program in metabolic patients;
• the ability to contextualize and tailor what is mentioned in the previous point, even in non-standard settings.

The teaching material prepared by the lecturer in addition to recommended textbooks (such as for instance slides, lecture notes, exercises, bibliography) and communications from the lecturer specific to the course can be found inside the Moodle platform › blended.uniurb.it
