Buena Vista University Human Performance It also offers preparation for a career that could eventually lead to coaching in a secondary setting.

Human performance works with athletes and other individuals to help improve health and athletic performance through conditioning, strength training and nutrition. The major is excellent preparation for continued study and research after graduation in fields like sports psychology, cardiac rehabilitation, nutrition, anatomy, exercise physiology and motor therapy. The required coursework for human performance further helps you develop the knowledge and proficiencies needed to pass tests for two certifications through the American Academy of Sports Medicine: Certified Personal Trainer (ACSM-CPT) and Health and Fitness Specialist (ACSM - HFS). The human performance program recommends that you earn the CPT qualification your junior year so that you can, if you desire, work as a personal trainer over the summer prior to your senior year. The HFS certification qualifies you to work with populations with special health requirements such as people with diabetes or other illnesses. It requires a bachelors or associate degree and therefore can be earned upon graduation from BVU.
