Fellow QMM member and former Head of Exercise and Sport Science at Bond University, Adjunct Professor Peter Reaburn, has recently retired. Peter has been asked to coordinate a new subject for final year Bachelor of Exercise and Sport Science students. The subject is titled “Exercise and Sport for Lifelong Health”. Peter is looking for 10-12 masters athletes (swimmers, runners, cyclists or triathletes) of either gender or any age to assist him in educating (and inspiring) his students. Specifically, you will be screened for both health measures (BP etc) and general fitness (body composition, flexibility, strength and endurance) then prescribed a gym- and/or home-based strength, balance and stretching program. You may be asked by the students to be an actual Case Study for an extended period of time. The details where you will need to be available are: EITHER a Tuesday 9-11am OR a Wednesday (8-10am) at the Bond Institute of Health and Sport (the 5-story building between the Robina train station and CBUS Stadium) on the following dates:
BOTH Tuesday October 6 AND Tuesday October 20 from 9-11am on both days
BOTH Wednesday October 7 AND Wednesday October 21 from 8-10am on both days
On the first day you will be screened by the students and undertake simple health and fitness related tests. On the second day you will be shown through an individualised gym- and home-based strength, balance and flexibility program. The students may also ask you to work with them regularly and in more depth as a Case Discussion which is a major component of the subject assessment. In this case you will be working with them at times and days till early December you work out together . If you are interested or want to know more, please email me (Peter) at: preaburn@bond.edu.au (you’ll get an automated email from the Uni saying I’ve retired but have faith I’ll get back to you. Or ring me at: 0408 760 757. I will need to know the following:
What days (Tuesday or Wednesday) you’d prefer
Your email AND phone numbers (H) AND (Mob)
Whether you are interested in working with the students from Mid-October till early December?
