EXAMPLE 1

• I am 15 years old. I am 1.5m tall and weigh 55
  kg. This means that I am the correct height and
  weight for my age. I play football twice a week,
  do a paper round and walk to school every day. I
  think I am already quite an active person. I
  think my fitness level is quite good but there is
  still room for improvement especially with my
  stamina.

19
EXAMPLE 2

• I am not a very active person. I am 14, 85kg and
  1m38cm tall. I dont play any sports outside
  school and would consider my fitness level to be
  lower than average. I get a lift to school every
  day and spend most of my time at home doing
  homework. In PE lessons I get out of breath
  really quickly and I would really like to lose
  some weight.

20
EXAMPLE 1

• As my fitness is already quite good I think I
  should start my training programme at a high
  level. It needs to be challenging enough so that
  I am working hard but not too difficult because I
  might injure myself or get frustrated if I cant
  do it.

21
EXAMPLE 2

• Because my fitness level is not very good I will
  need to plan my training programme so that it is
  easy for me to do for the first few weeks. This
  is so that I enjoy exercising for a change and
  dont feel like I am exhausting myself each
  session. I will need to increase the difficulty
  as I go though otherwise I wont get any fitter!

22
Choosing a sport for your programme

• You will be working in the multi-gym, trying to
  improve your fitness for a particular sport
  chosen by you.
• You will not be actually doing this sport.

23
Choosing a sport for your programme

• Choose a sport that you are familiar with,
  hopefully one that you do regularly.
• If you dont do any, choose one that you know you
  will do in PE next year

EXAMPLE 1

• I have chosen Karate as my sport for my training
  programme. The reason I picked this is because I
  go to Karate classes once a week and am due to
  take my next grading for my green belt very soon.
  If I can improve my fitness I have more chance of
  getting my green belt.

34
EXAMPLE 2

• I have selected Dance for my training programme
  sport. This is because I dont really do any
  sports out of school but l do like dancing and I
  know I will be doing dance in GCSE PE next year.
  I would like to get the best grade that I can and
  so if I can improve my fitness for dance it will
  help my scores.
