School Name: Penticton Secondary School
Principal’s Name: Mr. Bill Bidlake
BAA date:
Course Name: Weight Training 10
Grade Level: 10
Number of Course Credits: 4 (Applied Skills)
Number of Hours of Instruction: 120
Prerequisites: P.E. 10 (taking concurrently or in previous year)
Special Training, Facilities or Equipment Required: Weight Training Facility, television, VCR, heart rate monitor, skinfold calipers
Course Synopsis: This course is designed to introduce the development of fitness through the use of weight training. Weight Training 10 will reinforce and augment theories and practices in the field of Progressive Resistance Exercise (PRE). Students will determine their fitness objectives, design and implement a PRE program relative to those goals. In addition to the safe and practical use of weight training facilities, students will explore the facts and fallacies relative to nutrition, supplementation, and technology associated with fitness through weight training. This course is designed to be an experimental learning situation through the use of weight training equipment and practical demonstrations. Evaluation will be based on performance in group and individual settings. Weight Training 10 is intended to offer students an opportunity to explore fitness through Progressive Resistant Exercise Training.
Rationale: The aim of Weight Training 10 is to allow students the opportunity to apply knowledge, skills and attitudes which will enable them to gain an understanding of PRE training techniques used throughout the world. The students will be exposed to a variety of practices, principles, and technologies used today in weight training. The culmination of this exposure/exploration will allow students to determine fitness objectives, develop, implement and maintain a program to meet those goals. Skills and knowledge acquired via practical lab and co-operative learning will enhance the student’s ability to address fitness/health issues in their future living situation.

Unit/Topic Module Descriptions
Unit 1: Fitness Theory Overview
Students will become familiar with health versus activity related
components of fitness and how to measure these components. They
will examine Progressive Resistance Exercise (PRE) training and how
different fitness components are affected by that training. The
F.I.T. principle of training will be studied to determine how it can be
incorporated into a program in order to give students optimum
success.
Curriculum Organizers and Learning Outcomes
Technology
It is expected students will:
· understand and use appropriate equipment and methodologies for fitness component measurement
· use fitness component measurements to evaluate overall fitness
· determine how PRE can address fitness components which have been evaluated as requiring improvement
Self and Society
It is expected students will:
· demonstrate an understanding of how fitness affects society and then personally
· can demonstrate an appropriate use of language and terminology relative to fitness, and weight training
Unit 2 Equipment/Safety Orientation overview.
Students will become familiar with the equipment, use, maintenance and safety associated with all weight training room apparatus and areas.
Technology
It is expected students will:
· be able to use appropriately and safely all equipment and areas associated to the weight room.
· demonstrate a variety of techniques to achieve different outcomes on all apparatus
Self and Society
It is expected that students will:
· demonstrate a knowledge of safety and conduct with equipment and areas associated with the weight room in order to keep themselves and others safe
· be able to use appropriate language and terminology associated to weight room use.
Unit 3 Program Development/Implementation Overview
The students will define their fitness objectives as determined by
pre-program fitness testing. They will then develop their own weight
training program using theories and principles explored during initial
fitness theory exposure. After developing their own weight training
program, students will implement that program. Modifications to the
program will be addressed and made after observations and
evaluations of daily routines and daily student record keeping via a
student/instructor or student/student consultative process.
Technology
It is expected the student will:
· incorporate appropriate weight training equipment for a complete body PRE program
· use appropriate theoretical practices for gaining fitness through weight training
· use appropriate record keeping practices
Self and Society
It is expected the student will:
· demonstrate appropriate apparatus and weight training practices
· demonstrate knowledge and understanding of PRE and weight room practices in order to aid peers and others in appropriate, safe and successful use
Unit 4 Fads/Fallacies, Supplementation, Technologies, Overview
Students will familiarize themselves with fads and fallacies, both past
and present as they are related to PRE. An examination of
supplementation and nutritional practices associated with weight
training will be explored. Use of current and new fitness technologies,
such as heart rate monitors, pedometers, weight and aerobic training
equipment, will be explored in order to familiarize students to
alternate training techniques.
Technology
It is expected the student will:
· be able to determine the difference between sound versus unsound practices, equipment, and ergogenic aids
· familiarize themselves with current and cutting edge materials and equipment for weight/fitness training
· be aware of good nutritional practices for optimum success in achieving their fitness objectives
Self and Society
It is expected the student will:
· demonstrate knowledge of fad, fallacy, and quackery in order to be a critical consumer of fitness/weight training products and practices
· demonstrate a willingness to try different equipment and techniques to achieve fitness
Assessment Component
· 60% of grade will be based upon daily lab/workout
· 20% of grade will be based upon record keeping and interpretation of record
· 10% of grade will be based upon multiple choice test relative to fitness theory and safety
· 10% of grade will be based upon Ergogenic Aid assignment
Instructional Component
· direct instruction
· demonstrations
· video
· practical work
· lab work with new technologies
· group/paired work
· library research
