This module explores the relationship of physical activity and sedentary behaviour with both the development and control of non-communicable diseases (NCD).
You will examine the physiological responses to physical activity, and methods to assess health and fitness for those individuals suffering from such disease states.
You will explore the application and appraisal of exercise prescription guidelines for NCDs, with consideration of those that are serviced by exercise/GP referral schemes.
This module is aligned to the CIMSPA professional standards Health Navigator and Long-Term Conditions.
