A person-centred approach will be applied to identify and interpret individual and contextual factors that affect exercise safety, adherence, and effectiveness in apparently healthy adults. Students will learn to (in)formally assess barriers and facilitators to physical activity, posture, balance, joint mobility, physical competency, and muscular capacity, all for the purpose of designing exercise programs. Informed by best available evidence at the kinesiology theory-practice nexus, an interdisciplinary perspective is implicitly adopted.
