In order to apply the concepts you are learning you will submit a fitness journal each week. The fitness journal will include activities that you do as well as the amount of time you spend on the activity, the intensity and notes about how you felt. You can include Heart Rate, Respiration, Level of Sweat, Muscle Fatigue and other factors in the notes.

These notes will help you to revise your fitness goals as we work through the course.
