Resistance Training for Different Populations
Course release date: 4/07/2025
Course Overview
Resistance training programming is different for different populations; however, resistance training is often addressed as a specific program or routine without taking individual variability into account. The way the five key programming variables are used should differ depending upon the individual, fitness level, age, goals, and abilities. This course takes contemporary resistance training research for four distinct populations and shows the learner how to design safe and effective workouts for people with obesity, active aging , women over age 40, and athletes. By contrasting how resistance training is programmed for these different populations, learners are shown how to build safe and effective routines for each.
