In chapter five, “Facility Design and Planning”, the text talks about the design and planning of an athletic training room and how the best ones are those that have undergone comprehensive planning before its development. Spacing, lighting, accessibility, and traffic flow are key elements that should be considered in the planning of an athletic training room. The process will also include collaboration with internal and external stakeholder and contractors.

I work as a gymnastics coach at Trousdell Gymnastics Center. It is a recreational center that provides programs for all Tallahassee residents, specializing in gymnastics and exercise. The goal of this organization is to provide a safe and affordable program that keeps the community fit and engaged. They offer recreational gymnastics classes for boys and girls of all ages. There are also preschool and kindergarten programs for the younger children. On the other end of the spectrum there are adult classes that teach gymnastics and overall fitness. In addition, the gym offers classes for children with special needs. Finally, Trousdell offers a competitive gymnastics program for exceptional boys and girls. Three Olympic gymnasts have come through this program. Trousdell Gymnastics Center is named after a former Tallahassee Parks and Recreation Director Randy Trousdell, a man passionate about his community and the health of its children. Since it’s opening over 60 years ago the gym has impacted 500,000 children’s lives. I coach recreational classes for girls ages seven to fifteen years old. I begin every class by leading an extensive stretch and then we go to the events of the day where I set up stations for gymnasts to practice different skills. I end every class with conditioning to help the gymnasts grow stronger so that they can perform skills successfully. Trousdell Gymnastics Center coaches have a responsibility to these children. It is our goal to make the two hours a

During my Capstone experience I was able to be involved in a training gym in Fort Gibson, Oklahoma. In this gym there are ages four to eighteen training. The athletes were from: Fort Gibson, Woodall, Tahlequah, Briggs, Hilldale, Oktaha, Vian, and Muskogee. The sports available were: basketball, football, baseball, wrestling, and healthy day-to-day living. There were multiple trainers and they used multiple different facilities. Since Fort Gibson is somewhat small and limited on their workout resources they used: local churches, a gym located downtown, outdoor fields at the Fort, the high school track, and sometimes even do home calls.

Facts: For the past two years, Minsu, a Korean American, has worked as a high school physical education teacher. He is also a body-builder and a part-time graduate student in educational technology at State University. In preparing for a master’s thesis he has decided to participate in Arnold’s World Body-building training program and analyzing advanced technology used to help students absorb physical education. Arnold’s training program has a regular faculty, curriculum, an enrolled body of students, and advanced technology in its gym equipment.

This semester project helped my overall understanding of the administration process that accompanies the career in athletic training. It showed me how to apply what I learned from the textbook and weekly assignments to a situation that frequently occurs for athletic trainers. Working with other student athletic training students allowed us to share our ideas and perceptions to meet the goal of running a new and successful athletic training room.

“Fitness trainers and instructors lead, instruct, and motivate individuals or groups in exercise activities, including cardiovascular exercises (exercises for the heart and blood circulation), strength training, and stretching.

According to the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA), there are approximately 30 million adult members of fitness centers in the United States. By the year 2010, this number is likely to grow to 50 million. This is due in large part to the increasing awareness amongst the population of the importance of exercise to promote health and wellness. This trend coupled with the major demographic shifts should produce an increased demand for fitness services and products.

A big problem with our campus is many people would like to start working out, but are insecure about it or simply don’t know how to begin. Also, many lifts have the potential to cause injury when performed incorrectly. Because of this, our project focuses on providing potential starters with sufficient information as well as a comfortable atmosphere to begin and also limiting the risk of injury. The event day will bring more people to the gym and making friends with the ‘locals’ will eliminate the original insecurity of going.

Virtual worlds have solved many of the challenges faced by educational institutions. Today, hundreds of colleges, universities and other learning organizations are either augmenting their current traditional classroom curriculum with a virtual learning component or are holding classes and entire programs exclusively in immersive learning environments in Second Life. Second Life’s persistent virtual environments give students an opportunity to work together synchronously and then return, individually or as a team. The learning space is always equally available, for geographically dispersed groups as well as for those who meet regularly in the physical world. This is especially useful when students require more flexible schedules or need to work asynchronously on the same project.

A 5 storey carpark with a 600 car capacity will also be built to accommodate visitors and staff alike.

An Olympic sized outdoor swimming pool will also be built, which can even be used in local water sports events. Duo Designers are the interior designers of choice who will be engaged in the project.
