Group Exercise.

So as part of my journey to be healthy, I work as a trainer for dance students.  I also  teach Zumba, and recently was offered an opportunity to get involved with a project called "Enhance Fitness" which was started by Group health, and is oriented towards senior health.
Working for the Y has opened some exciting doors for me.  With these opportunities looming in the near future, I have to take some national certification test, despite having a college degree in fitness specialist and personal training.   Two weeks ago, I took a class through the Y called, Healthy lifestyle principles.  This is the Y's requirement to take any other class in health and wellness programming.
This weekend I'm taking the Group X training instructor through the Y and will follow up before the end of the month with a national certification for Group X Instructor. Since the Y offers the workshop with a comparable exam, it will make sense to follow up with the national exam for the same. All the information is fresh!  So what is group X?  its basically the Exercise instructor knowledge for group trainings.  Whether small or large.  It doesn't necessarily pertain to any one type of group exercise, but goes over all the things you need to know, including refreshing anatomy, kinesiology, physiology, nutrition, health screenings, programming, teaching principles.injury prevention and emergency/first aid procedures, among other things. Its alot to go over in one day. I'm looking forward to it, and trying to run through the manual over the next few days ahead of time to go over things that we don't think much about like the Krebs cycle, and ATP- oh the early days of college.
