This document outlines the design project requirements for creating a balanced, safe, and effective High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) workout consisting of four distinct circuits. Students are tasked with selecting appropriate movements while considering aspects such as exercise variety, safety protocols, and the progression of skill levels. Each circuit follows a 30 seconds work followed by 30 seconds of rest for three rounds, with an emphasis on including exercises that target upper body, lower body, core, and cardiovascular fitness. The project includes criteria for evaluating the workout structure, ensuring that transitions are logical and safety measures are well communicated. Furthermore, students must reflect on their choices of exercises, evaluating muscle engagement and safety measures, while also proposing adaptations for different fitness levels, from beginners to professional athletes.
