Write an Exercise Prescription for this individual which addresses the five categories of fitness. Include a PAR-Q and health stratification questionnaire.

Write a brief analysis of why the exercises were selected, special considerations and barriers this client may face.
Components of Project:
Section 1: Data Collection
Step 1: Choose someone you feel comfortable speaking to who is over the age of 65 and request an interview with them. They must agree to the interview. Make sure to have them sign the consent form (on the interview question sheet), a PAR-Q and a health risk screening form. If you are conducting the interview over the phone ask for their verbal consent (they don’t need the sign the physical document). You will turn in digital copies of these forms.
Using the questions provided find out about them and their physical activity habits. Ask any additional follow up questions your think may be necessary based on the answers they provided.
Step 2: Write a brief summary of your interview findings. This should be about one paragraph that reflects over what you learned about this client and what information you will need to consider when making their exercise prescription.
Section 2: Exercise Prescription
Step 1: Based on the information gathered in the interview, information presented in class and your knowledge from previous kinesiology course work and come up with an assessment plan and exercise plan that you would recommend to this person if they were your client. You are not required to show the interviewee this program or implement it in any way it is purely hypothetical.
**Please note, as shown on the rubric make sure your assessment and exercise plan contains all necessary components
Select appropriate assessments for your client based on their current health status. You must select at least 3 at the minimum. Make sure to describe the assessments in depth including directions and how results are measured

Organize all of this information into a chart or easy to follow table that includes all necessary components including exercise descriptions and progressions. Create a sample day and week workout plan including warm-up and cool down exercises.
Section 3: Analysis
Write a brief summary that explains the decision-making process behind your exercise plan. This section should explain why the exercise and assessment choices were made based on your interviewee’s health status and physical activity level.
