1. Apply comprehensive knowledge of human anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics to analyze and optimize human movement, exercise performance, and injury prevention.
  2. Design and implement evidence-based exercise and conditioning programs that consider metabolic, hormonal, and neuromuscular adaptations to various training modalities and populations.
  3. Perform comprehensive evaluations by collecting, analyzing, and interpreting physiological, functional, and psychosocial data to determine client needs and inform safe, effective exercise interventions.
  4. Design and justify individualized, evidence-based prescriptions by integrating scientific literature, clinical guidelines, and client characteristics for diverse populations across health and disease states.
  5. Apply and uphold ethical, legal, and professional standards by evaluating practice scenarios, making informed decisions, and defending actions consistent with the scope of exercise physiology.
