Various Categories Of Exercise Participants
By Large, We Can Have Following Program Categories Of People Who Want To Participate In Exercise. 

  • RECREATIONAL PARTICIPANTS

Recreational participants are those people who just want to be fit to look good and to feel good. These people may not have perfect body shape or composition but they do not have any diseases and medical conditions too. They may want to lose some weight/fat or gain some muscle. The main focus is on staying in shape and being energetic to have a better quality of life.
To serve this category of the client the team requires the following components: 
The client
The personal trainer
And a nutritionist. 
Because good nutritionist along with physical activity is crucial for both weight-loss and weight-gain. 

  • SPORTS SPECIFIC / COMPETITIVE LEVEL ATHLETIC POPULATION 

This category is of those people who play a particular game or participate in athletic events at competitive levels. Along with fitness, they want to better their skills to perform at the time of competition.
To cater to this program category we need to have the following components in the team to achieve the best possible performance:
The client
The personal trainer
The sports nutritionist 
And the coach.
Athletes/ sportspersons have special needs when it comes to their nutrition and also they need sports specific training.

The personal trainer can chalk out the strength conditioning program after having a word with coach related to specific movements those need to be worked on.

  • SPECIAL POPULATION

Special population means all those people who are not at the optimum level of health. People who have health issues. People who are dealing with medical issues. Ideally, these people must take care of their medical issues before they either gain or lose their body weight. The ideal goal of these people should be reaching the optimum health and then take care of the aesthetics.
To serve this category the team needs to have:
The client
The personal trainer

And The physician
In the case of physiological issues and the physiotherapist / orthopedician in case of injuries. The category is one of the most sensitive category that needs special care due to their health issues/injuries. taking the guidance from the medical professional is important as we don't worsen the condition of the client. Monitoring of the food intake is also important to manage the health issues.

Digestive System

The digestive system is made up of the digestive tract- a series of hollow organs joined in a long, twisting tube from the mouth to the anus and other organs that help the body break down and absorb food. Organs that make up the digestive tract are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine also called the colon-rectum and anus. Inside these hollow organs is a lining called the mucosa. In the mouth, stomach, and small intestine, the mucosa contains tiny glands that produce juices to help digest food. The digestive tract also contains a layer of smooth muscle that helps break down food and move it along the tract. Two "solid" digestive organs, the liver and the pancreas, produce digestive juices that reach the intestine through small tubes called ducts. The gallbladder stores the liver's digestive juices until they are needed in the intestine. Parts of the nervous and circulatory systems also play major roles in the digestive system.

PNF Stretching

PNF is an acronym for   Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation . PNF is not really a type of stretching but is a technique of combining passive stretching  and isometric stretching in order to achieve maximum flexibility. PNF was originally developed by a physical therapist as a method of rehabilitating stroke victims. PNF consists of a muscle being passively stretched, then contracted isometrically against resistance while in the stretched position and then being passively stretched again through the resulting increased range of motion. PNF usually employs the use of a partner to provide resistance against the isometric contraction and to then take the muscles through its increased range of motion.
