Obese sedentary client
The aim for an obese sedentary person would be to get a better general fitness and better general health. Due to there lack of expirence i would keep the methods of traing very simple, i would give them a selection of continuos training methods, this would help my client achieve a good fitness base. As the client is obese i would avoid trainings such as plyometrics and cross fit work etc as these are high intensity weight bearing activities which could cause injury.
As my client is obese overload would be given at a very very gradual rate, doing too much could result in injury and not completing the training session, if one of those occured then it would mentally affect my client as there confidence would fall and potentially lack of motivation, frequency and duration for my client would be progressivly overloaded when the client is seen to be making improvements, also the intensity my client shows would be overloaded as they begin to adapt to the training.
I would also tell my client that gains early on into the programme could be lost quickly if they do not commit to there programme of regular training. They would need to plan there traing so atleast 2 trainings are taken place in a week this would potential stop reversabilty taking place. I would also need to vary the programme to stop the programme from becoming tedius but as the client has no former training expirience it would hopefully be stimulating and exciting for the client. As they train longer the programme would need to be tweaked so there are new methods, but as there sedentary there would be limited methods to change to, also as they are obese it would be a longer time until they are physically ready for methods that are in need of more skill.
Client with physical limitations (person in a wheel chair)
The client i am using is a person who is parlysed from the waist down, so my client would want
To make his life easier. To do this i would focus on their upper body strength so it would be easier for my client to move around. I would focus on their arm strength and muscle endurance in the top half of their body. Also my client is sedentry he would have no former expirence in training so i would have to keep the methods simple, so i would do simple weight work.
I would start off very gradual in terms of overload, i would get my client to start off with smaller weights and over time when my client adapts to them weights to heavier weights, also in terms of frequency and duration i would have my client gradually increase in both also before i increase any of the above i would increase the intensity uder which my client trains but these three would be gradual changed when my client shows signs of improvement.
I would also remind my client that gains made early on in the programme could be lost very quickly only taking 1 week to lose 3 weeks gains, so i would remind my client to commit to the training and ask for him to train for atleast 2 days a week.
Lastly i would not vary the programme for the first couple of weeks as hopefully the training would be new and exciting as they are sedentary. But after a couple of weeks when there skill levels improves and when the client starts finding the programme tedius then i would vary it by putting different methods in that are still specific for my clients aims.
An elite athlete (a marathon runner)
As my client is an elite athlete the programme would involve training methods which need a higher skill level, as i am focusing on a marathon runner this would invovle continuos running, c.v. Intervals and muscular endurance circuits would focus on c.v. Endurance and muscular enduance as these are the aspects a marathon runner needs. I would overload quickly in terms of intensity and keep a structured programme in terns pf frequency and duration as the athlete would be working on this full time. They would have the same amount of training sessions in a week.
As my client is an elite athlete they would know that they would have to train at least 4 times in a week because the athlete woild need time to rest and any more could risk injury. Reversabilty could also occur due to injury, depending on which injury i would try to get my athlete to train around it, if it is an injury in the legs then my client would have to miss training but if an injury occurs in the arm then if they could run then atleast my client's fitness would not be majorly affected.
In terms of variance my client would find their programme boring very quickly, this could affect the athlete mentally which would affect there motivation towards there training programme. So to avoid this i would change the training methods but keep them specific to the programme. Or make the athlete run to different areas, hopefully both of these suggestions would keep my client motivated.

M2-SPORV
The 5 principals of sport are guidelines in which athletes should follow and help the athlete to get optimum results.The 5 princials are S.P.O.R.V
S- Specificity,This means that the training methods you impliment into you training sessions are relevent to your sport,the position in sport or whatever goals or target you set yourself, for example you would not have a shot putter doing continuos c.v. work, or have a long distance runner doing strength work.
P O- Progressive Overload, this means what ever client you have you will make there sessions slightly more advanced over a certian amount of time. For example an athlete would would progress alot quicker than an non-athlete.
R- Reversabilty- this means that you go backwards in your fitness levels, this is from not doing athletic activitys in a long amount of time this would occur from; injuries, off-season and holidays. The gains would reverse quicker for non-athletes than athletes.
V- Variance- this means changing your sessions to stop them getting tedius, athletes would get bored from doing the same methods every time you train this would damage the athletes enthusiasm about training,so trainers would to do different training methods which are still relevent to the athletes goal or do the same methods but in different areas for example a long distance runner who does continuos running everyday could change to fartlek or maybe running to somewhere else.
D1-relate the principals of training to a range of clients with different needs.
