Spring 2025 Intern Led Activities

Exercise Program and Training Request

If you would like a personalized exercise program and personal training with an undergraduate intern, please fill out this form.

Maggie personally supervises the interns as they develop and progress your exercise program. She is an ACSM Clinical Exercise Physiologist and has trained many clients throughout her career. Rest assured you are in good hands and are helping the interns gain invaluable experience!

*Please note, personal training is only available when classes are in session. Interns do not work reading days, finals, gaps between semesters, or breaks (spring, autumn, and winter). FSFP is still open during these times, but Kinesiology graduate assistants help with covering these shifts and can provide basic assistance with spotting, form, or exercise/equipment questions.*

Yearly Fitness Evaluation

Schedule your yearly fitness evaluation here. Please adhere to the pre-fitness evaluation instructions below.

*If you are a new member, please wait for Maggie to confirm that all paperwork, including the physician clearance, has been received. She will send you the link to schedule your initial fitness evaluation in that confirmation email.*

Pre-Fitness Evaluation Instructions

The fitness evaluation will consist of resting heart rate, resting blood pressure, weight, body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, muscular endurance, and flexibility.

• Abstain from prior eating and drinking (> 4 hours)

• Abstain from prior strenuous exercise (> 24 hours)

• Abstain from prior caffeine ingestion (> 12-24 hours)

• Abstain from prior nicotine use (> 3 hours)

• Abstain from prior alcohol use (> 24 hours)

• Clothing should permit freedom of movement and include walking or running shoes.

• Participants should continue their medication regimen on their usual schedule so that exercise responses will be consistent with responses expected during exercise training.

• Drink ample fluids over the 24 hour period preceding the exercise test to ensure normal hydration before testing.

Fitness Evaluation Follow-Up Appointment

If you have completed your initial or yearly member fitness evaluation, schedule your follow-up appointment here.

An intern will complete a write-up with your results and basic exercise program recommendations. They will then review this with you and provide a copy at your follow-up appointment. Feel free to use the fitness facility (A022 PAES) in the time between your fitness evaluation and follow-up appointment.
