IMPORTANT:
An introduction to your unit assessment
paperwork
How long will it take me to complete the
course work?
We recommend that you aim to complete
the Level 2 Certificate in Fitness Instructing
in 6-10 weeks. This will require you to plan
and commit to study time, which will include
both theory and practical activities.
However, course duration does depend on
your circumstances and there is therefore
some flexibility. Discuss any changes with
your trainer if you are a Flexi-learner
(option 2).
Flexi-Learners (option 2) should discuss
and agree their course length with their
assigned trainer prior to completing their
unit worksheets. Agreed assessment dates
should be recorded on the ‘assessment plan’
on page 4, column 4.
Self-Study Learners (SS) can email
support@ptacademy.com to discuss
completing the AW assessment plan.
How will I be supported during my study?
Your selected learning option will dictate
the type of support you will receive. For
both FL1 and 2 and SS our Learner Support
Team (LST) will be on hand to assist you
with any questions you may have. They can
be contacted at the following email address:
support@ptacademy.com
Learner Support will be more than happy
to help with all qualification theory
questions, guide you on assessments,
discuss course structure, assist or give you
advice on careers and industry progression
routes. The LST will endeavour to reply to
emails by the following working day.
If you are a FL (option two) you will have an
assigned course trainer, who is responsible
for guiding you through the qualification’s
practical components, such as free weight
and CV exercise and coaching, instructional
skill and advanced training systems. They
Copyright © 2017, PT Academy. All rights reserved.
IMPORTANT: All questions
regarding course theory,
materials and assessment
should be sent to:
support@ptacademy.com
will also be responsible for marking your
assessment workbooks.
Our trainers are all active personal trainers
currently working in the fitness industry and
they can offer more than just support in the
qualification’s practical components. Your
trainer will be more than happy to advise
on aspects of working in a gym, running
your own PT business, how to get leads
and manage prospects or how to go about
applying for Fitness Instructor roles. They
can also help you with any industry-related
questions you may have.
FL option one and SS do not receive trainer
support; however, there is the option of
attending a practical development training
day at one of our national training centres.

How and when will I be assessed?
Assessments include multiple choice
questions, written worksheets and practical
observation. The assessment plan found on
page 4 details the type of evidence required
for each of the units that make up this
qualification.
This assessment workbooks have an 80%
pass mark, whereas 100% of the assessment
criteria must be met in the practical
assessments.
2
Flexi-learners (option 2) should contact
their trainer to discuss a convenient time
frame for qualification completion. (As
mentioned on the preceding page, we feel
that all course work can be started, finished
and marked in 6-10 weeks).
Once you and your trainer have decided
how long you want the study period
to last, decide on a date for the unit 6
practical observation. From this point, work
backwards and plan in dates for the other
unit assessments, using the timeline as a
guide. Your personal mentor can assist you
with this.
Once this assessment workbook has been
completed, FL (option 2) should submit
their assessment workbook to their trainer
for marking. This will normally be done
on the final practical development session
before your final summative practical
observation for each qualification level.
FL (option 1) and SS on the other hand
should submit this assessment workbook
for marking at: assessments@ptacademy.
com. Our assessment team will mark your
unit within 14 working days and provide you
with feedback. You may be asked to make
amendments and then resubmit your work.
Flexi-learner option one and self-study
learners must visit the PT Academy
website: http://ptacademy.com/course-
dates and select a date for their practical
assessment at one of the national
assessment centres. You must then let our
bookings team know which date you’ve
chosen: bookings@ptacademy.com
It is very important that your assessment
workbook is up to date and marked as
competent prior to attending a national
assessment day. Learner Support can give
you guidance on this.

Don’t worry! All you will need to do is make
the corrections your trainer or support team
have asked you to make. If you refer on
your practical assessment, you may need
to rebook a future date. All resits are free of
charge.
What do I do with this portfolio after
completion?

 20. Using the CARES acronym, answer the following complaint.

Dear ___________,

I have been a member of UK Fitness for over five years and as a loyal member, I would like to draw
your attention to several negative features that have crept into the gym over time.

First, I have noticed that you are offering fewer classes than you were last year. I attend several
classes regularly, but you have stopped offering my favourite boxing class altogether.

Second, the women’s locker room has entered a state of disrepair. The lockers stick and the showers
often do not turn on.

Finally, the entertainment at the gym is often broken. Last week the televisions were not working
correctly. The week before, the cable went out.

This degradation of service is unfortunate because I greatly enjoy exercising at UK Fitness. I would
like to hear from you about your plans for updating and maintaining the gym so that I can decide
whether or not to renew my membership for another year.

Please send me an email at the address listed below at your earliest convenience. If I have not heard
from you within the next two weeks, I am afraid I will have to cancel my membership to your gym.

Thank you very much for your time.

Unit 5
Assessment guidance: planning paperwork
To complete the ‘planning gym-based
exercise’ unit, you must be able to
demonstrate competency in the following:
• Client consultation paperwork
• Planning an exercise programme
You must conduct a short consultation
with a client prior to writing your exercise
programme. The client consultation will
involve gathering client-centred information
to include:
• PARQ
• Informed consent form
• Client consultation form
Once you have gathered sufficient
information, the next step is to plan a
basic exercise programme that meets the
expected standard set by the awarding
organisation. There are, however, a
number of requirements and restrictions
when writing the session plans for your
assessment (outlined below). The reason for
these is to ensure consistency and that all
components of a workout are covered.
You must complete the following:
• Programme card
• Four detailed session plans
Your programme card must include the
following:
1. Key safety checks you would make to
ensure a safe workout environment:
Ensure several checks are addressed and
they are specific; i.e. no wear and tear on
mats, no faulty machinery, the working
area is clear, cables are not worn or
frayed, any fixed dumbbells are secure.
2. Any special arrangements or
adaptations to be made. This can be in
response to available time, equipment or
facilities, or clients present on the day;
e.g. if you have an older client you would
provide a longer warm-up or an example
of an adapted/alternative exercise.
Copyright © 2017, PT Academy. All rights reserved.
3. CV Exercises: All cardiovascular exercise
and equipment must be varied.
• CV1 - Warm Up – Duration 5-10 minutes
• CV2 - Main CV Component – Duration
20-30 minutes - continuous training only
(no interval training)
• CV3 - Cool down - Duration 5 minutes -
Workload/Intensity for CV exercises
- RPE 1-10 targets
- MHR Targets; e.g. <60%
- Description of intensity; i.e. light,
moderate, vigorous intensity
4. Resistance exercise:
• 4 free weight exercises: 6-12 reps x 2
sets, 1 minute recovery between sets
• 4 resistance machines: 6-12 reps x 2 sets,
1 minute recovery between sets
• 3 bodyweight exercises: 6-12 reps x 2
sets, 1 minute recovery between sets
• Name of exercise and equipment used
• Intensity of activity: %MHR and RPE for
CV exercise and sets, reps and rest for
resistance exercise
• A minimum of 3 relevant teaching points
Your programme card must demonstrate
a good balance of muscle groups, taking a
whole-body approach (upper and lower
body). Please ensure you include pushing
and pulling exercises to add program
balance.
DO NOT LEAVE ANY SECTIONS BLANK
5. Fours detailed session plans.
In addition to a programme card, you must
also write up four detailed session plans
using the session plan templates provided.
Information needed includes:
• Name of exercise and primary muscle
groups used
• Intensity of activity: %MHR and RPE for
CV exercise and sets, reps and rest for
resistance exercise
• A minimum of 5 relevant teaching points
41
• An alternative exercise using the same
muscle or muscle groups just in case
your primary exercise is not available
• Based on your exercise (from your
program card) offer adaptations or
precautions for each special population.
You must ensure you give a justification
for your answers. Using statements such
as ‘less reps’ or ‘reduced intensity is not
acceptable.

 Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q)

Client’s name: DOB

Contact No. Email:
Next of kin: Contact No.
If you are the planning to take part in physical activity or an exercise class, start by answering the
questions below. If you are between the ages of 15 and 69 the questionnaire will tell you if you should
consult with your doctor before you start. If you are over 69 years of age, and you are not used to
being very active, check with your doctor.

All information will be treated confidentially. Yes No

1. Has your doctor ever said you have a heart condition and that you should only do
physical activity recommended by a doctor?

2. Do you ever feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?

3. Have you ever had chest pain when you were not doing physical activity?

4. Do you ever feel faint or have spells of dizziness?

5. Do you have a joint problem that could be made worse by exercise?

6. Have you ever been told that you have high blood pressure?

7. Are you currently taking any medication of which the instructors should be made
aware?
7a. If yes, what?

8. Are you pregnant or have you had a baby in the last six months?

9. Is there any other reason why you should not participate in physical activity?
9a. If yes, what?

If you have answered ‘YES’ to one or more questions:

Talk to your doctor by phone or in person before you start becoming more physically active and
before you have a fitness assessment. Tell your doctor about the questionnaire and which question(s)
you answered yes to. You may be able to do any activity you want – as long as you begin slowly and
build up gradually – or you may need to restrict your activities to those which are safe for you. Talk
with your doctor about the kind of activity you wish to participate in and follow his/her advice.

If you have answered ‘NO’ to all questions:

You can be reasonably sure that you can start to become more physically active and take part in a
suitable exercise programme. Remember – begin slowly and build up gradually.

 Informed Consent Form

The purpose of an exercise programme is to help you to achieve health and fitness goals.

You will be set a programme based upon your present activity/exercise levels and your stated
goals. You will experience some feelings of exertion during each activity session and may
become hot and uncomfortable at times. If your plan includes certain types of cardiovascular
exercise you can expect your breathing to become more rapid and your heart rate to increase.
As your fitness improves, your goals may lead you to participate in more vigorous levels of
activity but these should remain within your capabilities.

All activities will be explained and demonstrated to you but you should feel free to ask any
questions you may have. Any exercise programme carries with it an element of risk. The
sessions are designed to minimise risk yet, at the same time, provide an effective exercise/
activity programme. Please inform the instructor if there is any reason why you should not
participate in an activity i.e. if you have an illness or an injury which might be aggravated by
exercise.

If, at any time, you feel undue pain or excessive discomfort stop the activity immediately and
inform the instructor of your symptoms. You are free to withdraw from any activity at any
time you wish.

I agree to take part in the programme described to me by the instructor. The nature,
purpose, risks and benefits have been explained to me and I understand what is required of
me and that I may withdraw at any time.
