Also new to this edition are video demonstrations of two sample workouts, one with total body movements that target small and weak muscle groups and one with upper-body exercises using resistance bands. These sample workouts serve as examples for students to learn how to structure their own workouts. Practical learning activities, assignable by instructors in HKPropel, provide real-life context and personal application of the material, focusing on completing individual assessments, goal setting, and identifying the pros and cons of modifying their behavior.
