    Frequency Code: This course is taught every semester. Updating frequency code to reflect this.

    Prerequisite: EXS 397 Exercise Physiology will continue to be the prerequiste course but will additionally require a C- grade or better to take EXS 438. Exercise physiology is important foundational knowledge assessed in most fitness certifications. One requirement of accreditation with the National Strength and Conditioning Association is that we must have a 70% pass rate for first time takers of their Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist test. Exercise science, which encompasses exercise physiology, accounts for about 55% of the Scientic Foundation portion of the test (part 1) with Practical and Applied portion of the test (part 2) includes fitness assessment and programming for cardiovascular dominate sports and energy system training. A passing score is considered a 70 on both parts of the exam. By elevating the prerequiste to a C- or higher in EXS 397, students will be more prepared for the demands of EXS 438 and increase their ability to be successful on the certifying exam.

    This would effect about 7% of SCHP students and 13% of EXSC students. No CCH students have taken EXS 438 within the last few years. EXS 438 is an elective for EXSC and CCH students and required for SCHP students. SCHP students would have at least two semesters to retake EXS 397 so they could take EXS 438 prior to their internship.

    Prerequiste of "or PED 397" was removed as it is no longer a course.

  • If changing the course level, be sure to contact the Registrar's Office to confirm your course number is not already in use or has not been previously used in academic history.

  • * Frequency Code*
  • Change in Abbreviated Course Title
    Enter an abbreviated course title, if needed. (Max 30 characters/spaces)
  • Catalog course description*

    Integration of cardiorespiratory physiological concepts into the assessment of an individual's aerobic capacity and the application of these data in designing an effective aerobic exercise program. American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) guidelines will be followed. Lectures and laboratory.

    This field will automatically populate from your import. AFTER the proposal is launched you may make changes/edits. Please DO NOT include the frequency code in the course description; you will make this choice in the respective field above. The catalog course description should be concise - one to three brief sentences or phrases are usually enough. A complete sentence is not always necessary. The catalog course description should not use abbreviations unless there is a standard acceptable abbreviation. The catalog course description should not include phrases such as: “The students will…” or “This course focuses on…”.
