One of . -the most common problems
within the field of fitness is how to assess
the quality of the information and „direc-
tion given by fitness personnel How can
the consumer determine whether he is
dealing with a competent professional or a
self proclaimed `fitness expert'? Comrnon
- sense can go a long way towards sorting
out who is wha Some individuals will give
specific, accurate, and informative diem -
tion while•others give ambiguous, general,
and sometimes totally false information.
Be suspect if the individual uses
testimonials or subjective viewpoints to
justify his claims.
Most people think, that exercise,
especially when they are young and fit, is.
only good fir the body; The fact of the mat-
ter is that some forms of exercise are
harmful. For instance, exercises which
put undue strain on the lower back. Some
exercises can cause serious injury im-
mediately. Others can, if performed over a
period of time, lead to progressive
damage. There are also forms of exercise
which should never be prescribed to per-
sons with certain medical conditions. For
example, static exercises cause large in-
creases in blood pressure.
One of the best ways to evaluate the level
of knowledge that a fitness person has is to
look for certification by a recognized pro-
fessional association. Currently, there are
two associations which certify fitness per-
sonnel. They are the Canadian Association
of Sports Sciences (CASS) and the
American College of Sports Medicine
(ACSM). In both cases individuals must
demonstrate both theoretical and prac-
tical competence in the areas of fitness ap-
praisal and exercise prescription before
they are certified. There are also pro-
grams which teach proper techniques but
do not require a demonstration of com-
petence. Persons under these catagories
may have little or no formal training in ex-
ercise sciences.
Here are some of the more common pro-

program iso help community fitness per.
sonnel acquire the basic skills and
knowledge necessary to lead a safe exec-
rise class This is not a certification pro -
gram and therefore does not require the
participants to demonstrate competence.
2) RFA (Registered Fitness )
Persons who are interested in fitness ap
praisal and counselling can be registered
after participation in a two-day workshop.
The aim of registration is to establish
minimum standards for those. individuals
involved with fitness who have little or no
formal preparation in the area of Exercise
Physiology (the science dealing with the
bodies response to exercise). These in-
dividuals must also possess a current
Heart Saver certificate in CPR (car-
diopulmonary resuscitation).
3) CFA (Certified Fitness Appraiser)
Persons under this category must have
advanced preparation in exercise
physiology, fitness testing, and CPR.
CFA's are qualified to prescribe exercise
for normal healthy individuals.
4) ES (Exercise Specialist) Person's
certified under this catagory must meet
the criteria for CFA certification. As well,
these individuals have advanced training
which enables them to assess and
prescribe exercise for high-risk groups
(this includes persons who have suffered a
(myocardial infarction) heart attack.
A person who holds a degree with the
emphasis on exercise physiology can also
provide good information. Titles such as
MD or PhD do not necessarily indicate ex
pertise in the field of exercise physiology
or fitness. Furthermore, the designation
"Fitness Expert" or "Fitness Consultant"
can be a self -bestowed title.

A reader's ode to curling...
• from page 1
Though the girls are never on the broom
and sometimes he could weep,
He is quite content to watch them as they
wiggle while they sweep.
He's the one who yells and calls the, shots,
the one who wears the pants,
And if St. Patrick is his patron saint, the
team may have a chance.
The next two teams to come to mind are
the Legion and Super Shells,
And what do they have in common ...
besides curling very well.
Where do you go when you're empty and
say "Fill'er up" you ask?
To the Legion for a draft beer or the Super
Shell for gas.
And tonight down at die Legion, They'll be '
serving beer that's green.
Well the Supers have turned that colour
too, with the price that gas has been.
If you had to choose between the two, just
how would each team rate?
If they're full of beer or Full of gas, the
choice is not that great.
And then we have the Foresters, the
Ladies and the others,
Who in real life, are just as close as sisters
are to brothers.
But it's a different story when they curl ...
they all get mean
And family ties are broken by their
ruthless jeers and screams.
On the one side there is Bogie, who is full of
vim and vigour,
To all who curl at Maitland, he's the "Jolly
Green Giant" figure.
The ladies team has Vicki, who's a smart
fun -loving gal,
And Signal -Star would love to have her on
their team as well.-
The
ell:The one• team yet to mention, are the Lady
Golferqueens, 1.
Who seem to do the jobon ice,•as well as on
the greens.
They never seem to mix the games, and
bring on doom or gloom,
Not one of them has placed a rock or teed
off with their broom.„
When they get back to•goltmg, do you thing
sometimes they'll say,
"I hope this drive will get across the old
hog line today" .
They may not be women's libbers but they
sure are hard to beat,
And throughout the curling season they've
been in the driver's seat. •
Now that the roasting's over and the fun's
about to start,
May every curler feel a bit of "Irish" in his
heart.
May each stone have a chip of the Blarney
and each broom be touched with luck,
And remember, when you get on the ice,
you're a helpless, sitting duck.
Regardless of what the score board says,
,you'll know that you have won,
I£ you did your best, liked the game, and
fel you had some fun.
And for those who think they're losers, and
have sad and tear -stained faces,
Remember you have a chance to win a
game of "Chase the Aces"
May it be the best St. Patrick's Day the
club has ever seen,
But be careful, tomorrow is NOT the day,
to be looking or feeling GREEN.
