Description:
2.1.Course objectives The basic objectives of the course are acquiring knowledge of biological mechanisms of effects of different types of training on health, in primary and secondary prevention of the most common chronic cardiovascular diseases, health indicators, health recommendations for training, possible health risks associated with fitness training, indications for limitations and modifications in training, characteristics of nutrition that should accompany diffeernt training programmes in fitness and nutritional supplements.

2.2.Course enrolment requirements and entry competences required for the course Completed: Functional Anatomy, Basic Kinesiological Transformations, Physiology of Sport and Exercise, Biological kinanthropology, Physical Activity and Health.

2.3.Learning outcomes at the level of the programme to which the course contributes Preparation of an effective plan and programme of health-related exercise for healthy persons.
Preparation of an effective and safe (risk-free) plan and programme of exercise for persons with a disease.
Evaluation of effects of exercise on health.

2.4.Learning outcomes expected at the level of the course (4 to 10 learning outcomes)
Student will be able to:
- understand biological mechanisms of effects of different types of training on health, in primary and secondary prevention of the most common chronic cardiovascular diseases,
- understand health recommendations and risks associated with different types of fitness training,
