, •Programs should be based on a participant's health status, current fitness
level, personal interests and individual goals.
•Identify "at-risk" persons and those who may need medical clearance.
•Consider current fitness status and previous exercise experience.
•As individuals gain experience with resistance training, more complex
programs are needed in order to make continual gains in muscular fitness.
Progression during eccentric actions must occur ____________ to reduce risk of muscle
strain.
