WHY EXERCISE REFERRAL?
You don't need to work in an exercise referral scheme to need exercise referral knowledge.
Think about the people attending your fitness classes, bootcamps, yoga sessions, Pilates classes or personal training appointments.
How many are living with asthma, obesity, depression, high blood pressure or arthritis? How many take regular medication, have undergone surgery or disclose a health condition on their PAR-Q?
These aren't always specialist referral clients. They're the everyday people you coach, or could be coaching.
What happens when a new client wants to join your sessions but discloses a medical condition? Or when someone you've coached for years develops a health condition or starts taking medication?
Does their health status mean you have to stop coaching them? Not necessarily.
Exercise offers enormous health benefits, but different conditions, symptoms, treatments and medications can influence how someone responds to physical activity.
The same exercise programme that works for one client may not be appropriate for another. Understanding how to assess, plan, adapt and monitor exercise is what makes the difference.
That's where Exercise Referral knowledge becomes invaluable.
This qualification develops your ability to look beyond a diagnosis, understand the individual and make informed decisions about how to support them safely and effectively.
Rather than automatically turning someone away because of a health condition, you'll be better equipped to recognise when you can coach them, what adaptations may be needed and when further medical guidance or specialist referral is appropriate.
Becoming a better fitness professional isn't just about learning more exercises. It's about understanding more of the people you coach.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
Build the Knowledge, Skills and Confidence to Coach a Wider Range of Clients
From understanding long-term health conditions to planning, adapting and delivering safe, effective exercise.

HOW YOU'LL STUDY
Understanding long-term health conditions takes more than simply attending a course. With 34 clinical conditions to study, there's a lot of valuable knowledge to absorb, understand and apply.
That's why we've designed this qualification to give you the freedom to learn at your own pace. Pause, replay and revisit tutorials, take time to reflect, and build your understanding before putting your knowledge into practice.
It's not about rushing through information. It's about developing the knowledge and confidence to make better coaching decisions.
