Basiswissen EDV
Basic knowledge of EDP
The subject "Basic IT knowledge" teaches basic knowledge and concepts of electronic data processing. It offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of computer technology, operating systems, networks and much more.

A computer is an electronic device that is used to process data. It performs calculations, stores and processes information. There are different types of computers, including personal computers (PCs), servers and embedded systems. Each type has specific applications and functions.

An operating system manages the hardware and software resources of a computer. It enables the execution of applications and ensures communication between hardware and software. The best-known operating systems include Windows, macOS and Linux, although each operating system has its own characteristics and areas of application.

Code can be translated by either compilers or interpreters. Compilers convert the entire code into machine language, while interpreters execute the code line by line. The fetch-decode-execute cycle describes the process by which the processor fetches, decodes and executes instructions.

A process is a program that is being executed. The management of processes includes the allocation of resources and the monitoring of their execution. Multitasking enables the simultaneous execution of several processes, whereby process scheduling determines which processes are executed when and for how long.

Hardware is controlled by special software known as drivers. Drivers enable communication between the operating system and hardware components by forwarding specific commands and data.

This module provides a solid foundation in the basic principles of electronic data processing and prepares students to understand and apply more complex concepts in IT.

Endurance Training Practical Application

Alongside strength training, endurance training is an important basis for good performance in any sport and also has many positive, health-promoting effects. The better your endurance is trained, the longer you can achieve a certain performance.

However, endurance does not necessarily mean running as far as possible as quickly as possible. Rather, it is about training your endurance in such a way that you can work at a certain intensity for as long as possible. This intensity depends on the sport in question.

In the endurance training course, participants learn the theoretical content of how intensive/extensive interval training, running, extensive and intensive endurance methods work. In practice, the UKK walking test is carried out, which is ideal for your future clients who are just starting out with training.

Additional emphasis is placed on training planning. During the practical training sections, the knowledge acquired is applied in practice. Graduates will be able to carry out and plan endurance training sessions independently.

Above all, they should be able to competently answer their customers' questions such as "At what heart rate can/should I train?

Introduction to Sensomotoric Training

The human body is a complex system of muscles, tendons, joints and bones that is constantly in motion. Every movement we make triggers a reaction that affects other areas of the body.

Sensorimotor training is a method that trains precisely these reaction chains in the body. Targeted training of the senses (e.g. sense of balance, touch, sight and hearing) and motor skills (muscle strength, coordination, mobility) improves the interaction between body and mind.

What is sensorimotor training?
Sensorimotor training is a method that originates from the field of physiotherapy. Sensorimotor regulation is the brain's ability to control motor skills and perception. Sensorimotor training can optimize movement sequences and improve motor skills. It is used in physiotherapy for neurological disorders, such as after a stroke.

However, sensorimotor training can also be used in competitive sport and fitness to improve motor skills.

This content is therefore developed in the sensorimotor training course for fitness trainers, in which participants perform practice-oriented strengthening exercises using unstable surfaces such as wobble boards, foam, exercise balls, ropes or slings and much more.

The unstable surfaces train proprioception, i.e. the perception of one's own body and its movements. The exercises challenge balance, coordination and strength and are therefore particularly effective.


  • DEFINITION OF THE TERM
    • Definition and explanation of sensorimotor function, which describes the interaction of sensory and motor functions.
  • ANATOMICAL BASICS
    • Differentiation between global and local stabilizers and their functions.
  • LOCAL STABILIZERS

  • SENSORIMOTOR TRAINING
    • Training on unstable support surfaces and the processes during movement.
  • INTENSITY RANGES
    • Comparison of the intensity of sensorimotor training with normal strength training.
  • PRACTICAL-METHODICAL APPROACH
    • Design and structure of a training session, including warm-up and training of muscle structures.

Strength Training with Free Weights 1

When we talk about strength training, most people immediately think of heavy weights and huge muscles. But that's not the only thing strength training has to offer.

Free weight training is used particularly in bodybuilding, weight training and martial arts as well as in rehabilitation after injuries. It is an effective and versatile training method that is suitable for both beginners and advanced athletes.

In contrast to strength training with machines, free weight training has the advantage that it also works the core and stabilization muscles. This makes it a more comprehensive workout because they enable us to hold our body upright and coordinate our movements.

They are also involved in many everyday movements, such as lifting objects or climbing stairs.

In this practical unit for fitness trainer training, course participants learn how to use dumbbells, barbells and pulleys correctly. Various exercises are demonstrated and performed by the participants themselves and particular attention is paid to joint-friendly execution with minimal risk of injury.

functional strength exercises

Functional Training refers to an approach to strength training that incorporates multiple muscle groups, movement patterns that reflect real human movement in the real world and place a high value on core musculature involvement in training exercises.
Multiple muscles are trainined at once, usually with a focus on entire muscle chains, in order to improve coordination between muscle groups alongside strength. Creating more stable and economical movement patterns that use the entire range of motion and strengthen the core are major goals.

Functional Strength Training is especially important because we want our clients and athletes to be able to use acquired strength for everyday movements and activity, or for the complex movement patterns necessary for any sport. This type of training is also appropriate for any age group and has applications in almost every type of sport, leisure activity, rehabilitation and injury prevention.

Some functional training methods utilize balance-challenging techniques and tools, small equipment that requires more core involvement for traditional movements, like medicine balls, sandbags and aquabags, or simply rely on bodyweight exercises.

In this course subject participants will learn about various training tools such as sling/TRX, gymnastics/balance ball, medicine and slam balls, sandbags, heavy/battle ropes and more. Bodyweight exercises are also a foundation of functional training, as certain bodyweight exercises can be used to expose functional weakness in even very "well-trained" athletes, and in order to build these abilities from the ground up. Muscle chains and some exercises which can be used to focus on specific ones are introduced.

These said exercises can shape the body, improve overall well-being and are therefore essential for a fitness trainer. They also help to increase endurance and strength.

This subject is important because it teaches you the basics you need for all other types of exercises and workouts. Many focus on training individual muscle groups, but this is not the most effective way to get your body in shape. Full body exercises are more effective because they target multiple muscle groups simultaneously, making the workout more efficient. However, these exercises are very demanding and prone to mistakes.

For this reason, we provide our future fitness trainers with detailed instructions so that they can perform the exercises correctly and later instruct their clients well. The subject is very practice-oriented and is coached and worked on together within the group after a short introduction. Each exercise is designed to address a variety of muscle groups.



The subject is very practice-oriented and, after a brief introduction, the exercises are coached and developed together within the group. Each exercise is designed to target a variety of muscle groups.
A fitness trainer must be able to impart this knowledge in order to provide optimal support and coaching for their clients.

This is why knowledge of whole-body exercises is an important subject in fitness trainer training.

fitness & Training Plans

Training planning is an essential part of the work of a fitness trainer and personal trainer. In order to achieve efficient progress in your clients' training and to achieve long-term success, there are a number of important factors to consider. Regardless of whether the client's personal goal is to improve performance, reduce body fat, learn new, complex exercises or something else.

A few important basic principles are the Weineck training principles. These state, among other things, that a training stimulus must be sufficiently high in order to achieve adaptation, that the load must increase steadily and also specify the correct load sequence as well as sufficient recovery and much more. The individual choice of the five load normatives is also crucial: intensity, duration, frequency, density and volume. Training planning deals with how to adapt these correctly to individual goals and requirements in order to achieve optimum results.

Keyword goals: Setting the right goals for clients also has a major influence on training design. Training level, age, regeneration, available time and many other factors also play important roles. The training plan can only be successfully implemented in practice if the customer's individual needs and resources are taken into account.

Our graduates learn about the physiological adaptation phenomena of the body's functional systems through different training loads. They also learn about different periodization models and how these are implemented in practice at different performance levels. As a result, our graduates know what is needed for optimal training planning , what obstacles can stand in the way and how individual goals can be correctly set (and of course achieved).

To refresh the content of training planning or to expand your knowledge of training planning in general, we recommend the workshop 1x1 of training planning

Career afterwards - how to continue after training

What does a fitness trainer do?

The areas of responsibility of a fitness trainer are varied and depend, among other things, on where and in which employment relationship - employed or self-employed - you work.

In both cases, the focus is of course on fitness. As an employee in a fitness studio, you could be responsible for training sessions as well as administrative tasks in the administration or instructing new fitness studio members.

As a personal trainer, you check the fitness level of your customers and set goals, create training plans for them and explain strength and endurance equipment as well as fitness exercises. You then accompany your customers on their journey, motivate them and ensure that they achieve their goals.

If you become a group fitness trainer, you will lead group classes for sports such as Pilates, yoga or aerobics. For this, it is advisable to take additional training to deepen your knowledge.

What do fitness instructors earn?

As a fitness trainer in a permanent position, you can expect a starting salary of between €19,000 and €21,900 gross per year. With a few years of professional experience, the salary range then increases to €22,000 to €26,000 per year.

In the case of self-employment, the salary depends on how many clients a trainer has and how the prices are set. Apart from this, there is of course a room rent to pay, unless you focus on home visits and outdoor training.

Where do fitness trainers work?

Fitness trainers often work in gyms with permanent employment or as freelancers. However, fitness trainers are also needed in wellness businesses such as hotels, recreation and leisure facilities, health centers or sports clubs.

Self-employment as a personal trainer is also a popular option, with many possible locations. In addition to own premises, outdoor training, home visits to customers or online fitness platforms are also common. In some gyms, you can also make arrangements to use the premises in return for rent.

It is no longer very easy to set up your own fitness studio due to the competition, which is why many fitness trainers go into areas such as workplace health promotion or sports development, where they advise on the design of fitness studios and sports grounds and halls, for example.

How can Flexyfit help me find a job?

We regularly list job advertisements from fitness studios on our Sportkarriereplatform. There you can apply directly for jobs as a fitness trainer, branch manager, instructor or studio employee.

Basiswissen EDV
Basic knowledge of EDP
The subject "Basic IT knowledge" teaches basic knowledge and concepts of electronic data processing. It offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of computer technology, operating systems, networks and much more.

A computer is an electronic device that is used to process data. It performs calculations, stores and processes information. There are different types of computers, including personal computers (PCs), servers and embedded systems. Each type has specific applications and functions.

An operating system manages the hardware and software resources of a computer. It enables the execution of applications and ensures communication between hardware and software. The best-known operating systems include Windows, macOS and Linux, although each operating system has its own characteristics and areas of application.

Code can be translated by either compilers or interpreters. Compilers convert the entire code into machine language, while interpreters execute the code line by line. The fetch-decode-execute cycle describes the process by which the processor fetches, decodes and executes instructions.

A process is a program that is being executed. The management of processes includes the allocation of resources and the monitoring of their execution. Multitasking enables the simultaneous execution of several processes, whereby process scheduling determines which processes are executed when and for how long.

Hardware is controlled by special software known as drivers. Drivers enable communication between the operating system and hardware components by forwarding specific commands and data.

This module provides a solid foundation in the basic principles of electronic data processing and prepares students to understand and apply more complex concepts in IT.

Endurance Training Practical Application

Alongside strength training, endurance training is an important basis for good performance in any sport and also has many positive, health-promoting effects. The better your endurance is trained, the longer you can achieve a certain performance.

However, endurance does not necessarily mean running as far as possible as quickly as possible. Rather, it is about training your endurance in such a way that you can work at a certain intensity for as long as possible. This intensity depends on the sport in question.

In the endurance training course, participants learn the theoretical content of how intensive/extensive interval training, running, extensive and intensive endurance methods work. In practice, the UKK walking test is carried out, which is ideal for your future clients who are just starting out with training.

Additional emphasis is placed on training planning. During the practical training sections, the knowledge acquired is applied in practice. Graduates will be able to carry out and plan endurance training sessions independently.

Above all, they should be able to competently answer their customers' questions such as "At what heart rate can/should I train?

Introduction to Sensomotoric Training

The human body is a complex system of muscles, tendons, joints and bones that is constantly in motion. Every movement we make triggers a reaction that affects other areas of the body.

Sensorimotor training is a method that trains precisely these reaction chains in the body. Targeted training of the senses (e.g. sense of balance, touch, sight and hearing) and motor skills (muscle strength, coordination, mobility) improves the interaction between body and mind.

What is sensorimotor training?
Sensorimotor training is a method that originates from the field of physiotherapy. Sensorimotor regulation is the brain's ability to control motor skills and perception. Sensorimotor training can optimize movement sequences and improve motor skills. It is used in physiotherapy for neurological disorders, such as after a stroke.

However, sensorimotor training can also be used in competitive sport and fitness to improve motor skills.

This content is therefore developed in the sensorimotor training course for fitness trainers, in which participants perform practice-oriented strengthening exercises using unstable surfaces such as wobble boards, foam, exercise balls, ropes or slings and much more.

The unstable surfaces train proprioception, i.e. the perception of one's own body and its movements. The exercises challenge balance, coordination and strength and are therefore particularly effective.


  • DEFINITION OF THE TERM
    • Definition and explanation of sensorimotor function, which describes the interaction of sensory and motor functions.
  • ANATOMICAL BASICS
    • Differentiation between global and local stabilizers and their functions.
  • LOCAL STABILIZERS
    • Detailed description of local stabilizers such as the diaphragm, transversus abdominis muscle and pelvic floor.
  • GLOBAL MUSCLE STRUCTURES
    • Description of global muscle structures such as back extensors and abdominal muscles.
  • LUMBAR STABILIZATION
    • Interaction of the local and global stabilizers in the lumbar region and the importance of preactivation.
  • UNSTABLE SUPPORT SURFACES
    • Importance of the transversus abdominis muscle as the first activated muscle in trunk movements.
  • SENSORIMOTOR TRAINING
    • Training on unstable support surfaces and the processes during movement.
  • INTENSITY RANGES
    • Comparison of the intensity of sensorimotor training with normal strength training.
  • PRACTICAL-METHODICAL APPROACH
    • Design and structure of a training session, including warm-up and training of muscle structures.
  • MUSCLE LOOPS
    • Definition and importance of muscle loops and their training.
  • FUNCTIONAL MUSCLE CHAIN TRAINING
    • Training functional muscle chains for everyday use.

Strength Training with Free Weights 1

When we talk about strength training, most people immediately think of heavy weights and huge muscles. But that's not the only thing strength training has to offer.

Free weight training is used particularly in bodybuilding, weight training and martial arts as well as in rehabilitation after injuries. It is an effective and versatile training method that is suitable for both beginners and advanced athletes.

In contrast to strength training with machines, free weight training has the advantage that it also works the core and stabilization muscles. This makes it a more comprehensive workout because they enable us to hold our body upright and coordinate our movements.

They are also involved in many everyday movements, such as lifting objects or climbing stairs.

In this practical unit for fitness trainer training, course participants learn how to use dumbbells, barbells and pulleys correctly. Various exercises are demonstrated and performed by the participants themselves and particular attention is paid to joint-friendly execution with minimal risk of injury.

functional strength exercises

Functional Training refers to an approach to strength training that incorporates multiple muscle groups, movement patterns that reflect real human movement in the real world and place a high value on core musculature involvement in training exercises.
Multiple muscles are trainined at once, usually with a focus on entire muscle chains, in order to improve coordination between muscle groups alongside strength. Creating more stable and economical movement patterns that use the entire range of motion and strengthen the core are major goals.

Functional Strength Training is especially important because we want our clients and athletes to be able to use acquired strength for everyday movements and activity, or for the complex movement patterns necessary for any sport. This type of training is also appropriate for any age group and has applications in almost every type of sport, leisure activity, rehabilitation and injury prevention.

Some functional training methods utilize balance-challenging techniques and tools, small equipment that requires more core involvement for traditional movements, like medicine balls, sandbags and aquabags, or simply rely on bodyweight exercises.

In this course subject participants will learn about various training tools such as sling/TRX, gymnastics/balance ball, medicine and slam balls, sandbags, heavy/battle ropes and more. Bodyweight exercises are also a foundation of functional training, as certain bodyweight exercises can be used to expose functional weakness in even very "well-trained" athletes, and in order to build these abilities from the ground up. Muscle chains and some exercises which can be used to focus on specific ones are introduced.

Strength Training Machines

The subject "Equipment-assisted strength training" is part of the fitness trainer B license training and deals with systematic strength training on stationary training equipment. The focus is on movement control, load control and the individual adaptation of training to different target groups.

Basics

In equipment-supported strength training, the muscles are loaded via mechanically guided movement paths. This enables targeted, controlled strain on individual muscle groups and offers a safe form of training, particularly for beginners, people with restricted mobility or in a rehabilitative context.

Aims of the subject

  • Teaching the basic biomechanical principles of equipment training
  • Correct equipment settings and exercise execution
  • Load dosage according to training goal and performance level
  • Recognizing and avoiding typical mistakes when using equipment

Contents

The following topics are covered as part of the course:

  • Differences between free and guided strength training methods
  • Training planning with stationary equipment
  • Introduction to equipment parks and standardized equipment circuit systems
  • Training control in terms of repetitions, intensity and regeneration

Application in everyday training

The content of this subject forms a basis for practical work in fitness studios or health facilities. Graduates are able to create and instruct individual training programs with equipment and implement them in a safety-conscious manner.

Foundational Full Body Exercises

Full-body exercises are essential when it comes to training the entire body. Deadlifts, squats and bent-over rows are three of the most important full-body exercises there are. These said exercises can shape the body, improve overall well-being and are therefore essential for a fitness trainer. They also help to increase endurance and strength.

This subject is important because it teaches you the basics you need for all other types of exercises and workouts. Many focus on training individual muscle groups, but this is not the most effective way to get your body in shape. Full body exercises are more effective because they target multiple muscle groups simultaneously, making the workout more efficient. However, these exercises are very demanding and prone to mistakes.

For this reason, we provide our future fitness trainers with detailed instructions so that they can perform the exercises correctly and later instruct their clients well. The subject is very practice-oriented and is coached and worked on together within the group after a short introduction. Each exercise is designed to address a variety of muscle groups.



The subject is very practice-oriented and, after a brief introduction, the exercises are coached and developed together within the group. Each exercise is designed to target a variety of muscle groups.
A fitness trainer must be able to impart this knowledge in order to provide optimal support and coaching for their clients.

This is why knowledge of whole-body exercises is an important subject in fitness trainer training.

fitness & Training Plans

Training planning is an essential part of the work of a fitness trainer and personal trainer. In order to achieve efficient progress in your clients' training and to achieve long-term success, there are a number of important factors to consider. Regardless of whether the client's personal goal is to improve performance, reduce body fat, learn new, complex exercises or something else.

A few important basic principles are the Weineck training principles. These state, among other things, that a training stimulus must be sufficiently high in order to achieve adaptation, that the load must increase steadily and also specify the correct load sequence as well as sufficient recovery and much more. The individual choice of the five load normatives is also crucial: intensity, duration, frequency, density and volume. Training planning deals with how to adapt these correctly to individual goals and requirements in order to achieve optimum results.

Keyword goals: Setting the right goals for clients also has a major influence on training design. Training level, age, regeneration, available time and many other factors also play important roles. The training plan can only be successfully implemented in practice if the customer's individual needs and resources are taken into account.

Our graduates learn about the physiological adaptation phenomena of the body's functional systems through different training loads. They also learn about different periodization models and how these are implemented in practice at different performance levels. As a result, our graduates know what is needed for optimal training planning , what obstacles can stand in the way and how individual goals can be correctly set (and of course achieved).

To refresh the content of training planning or to expand your knowledge of training planning in general, we recommend the workshop 1x1 of training planning

Funding & educational leave - how it works

Can I get funding for my training?

There are a variety of options for funding your training at the Flexyfit Sports Academy. There are various funding programs at federal state and EU level as well as tax incentives that serve as a basis.

Please note, however, that the decision on the allocation and amount of funding is the sole responsibility of the respective funding body.

We will be happy to help you find a suitable funding body and provide you with all the course information you need to apply for funding. You must submit the application itself to the relevant funding body.

All relevant funding bodies at a glance

How does the funding work?

Depending on the funding institution, your training will be financed either by direct assumption of costs after confirmation of the funding application (e.g. AMS) or by full or partial reimbursement after successful completion of the training (e.g. Waff). We recommend that you contact the relevant funding institutions in person to find out about individual funding options.

Can I take educational leave for the course?

Yes, the majority of our courses are suitable for educational leave.

If you would like to continue your education without terminating your employment, you can arrange educational leave with your employer. You will be released from work for the duration of the training.

Plan your educational leave with us now! We will be happy to clarify your individual training requirements with you in a personal, non-binding consultation.

How does educational leave work?

You can take your educational leave for a maximum of 1 year within 4 years. There are 3 ways in which you can organize this:

  • Educational leave over a period of 12 months in one go
  • split up, whereby each part must last at least 2 months. The parts must be taken within 4 years.
  • Educational leave with part-time educational leave extending over 2 years

Please note that this is a general summary and it is advisable to check with the relevant bodies or authorities for further details and conditions. Your employer's consent is essential for educational leave.

You must submit the training plans issued by us, which must provide for 20 hours per week for full-time educational leave or at least 10 hours per week for part-time educational leave. It is also necessary to provide regular proof of the progress of your training, for example through examinations or attendance certificates.

Career afterwards - how to continue after training

What does a fitness trainer do?

The areas of responsibility of a fitness trainer are varied and depend, among other things, on where and in which employment relationship - employed or self-employed - you work.

In both cases, the focus is of course on fitness. As an employee in a fitness studio, you could be responsible for training sessions as well as administrative tasks in the administration or instructing new fitness studio members.

As a personal trainer, you check the fitness level of your customers and set goals, create training plans for them and explain strength and endurance equipment as well as fitness exercises. You then accompany your customers on their journey, motivate them and ensure that they achieve their goals.

If you become a group fitness trainer, you will lead group classes for sports such as Pilates, yoga or aerobics. For this, it is advisable to take additional training to deepen your knowledge.

What do fitness instructors earn?

As a fitness trainer in a permanent position, you can expect a starting salary of between €19,000 and €21,900 gross per year. With a few years of professional experience, the salary range then increases to €22,000 to €26,000 per year.

In the case of self-employment, the salary depends on how many clients a trainer has and how the prices are set. Apart from this, there is of course a room rent to pay, unless you focus on home visits and outdoor training.

Where do fitness trainers work?

Fitness trainers often work in gyms with permanent employment or as freelancers. However, fitness trainers are also needed in wellness businesses such as hotels, recreation and leisure facilities, health centers or sports clubs.

Self-employment as a personal trainer is also a popular option, with many possible locations. In addition to own premises, outdoor training, home visits to customers or online fitness platforms are also common. In some gyms, you can also make arrangements to use the premises in return for rent.

It is no longer very easy to set up your own fitness studio due to the competition, which is why many fitness trainers go into areas such as workplace health promotion or sports development, where they advise on the design of fitness studios and sports grounds and halls, for example.

How can Flexyfit help me find a job?

We regularly list job advertisements from fitness studios on our Sportkarriereplatform. There you can apply directly for jobs as a fitness trainer, branch manager, instructor or studio employee.

Great training and super nice people. You can tell how much emphasis is placed on conveying the necessary knowledge to the course participants in an understandable way. I was even kindly allowed to take a course completely free of charge after there were somewhat problematic and disruptive participants in my group. I will 100% take more courses with you in the future because learning is extremely fun, especially thanks to the friendly staff!

The best thing that could have happened to me is this academy. Access to participants is excellent. All employees are very competent, very professional and very friendly. A person can learn so much that it is indescribably good. I would recommend it to everyone. When I arrived in Austria I was looking for something like this and luckily I found this academy and signed up for the course without hesitation. Everything we get in return is worth 100 times more than what we pay. Indescribable experience, indescribable people, once again and 1000 times I say: Thank you for everything, thank you for this indescribable experience. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

I was able to learn a lot of new things as part of my training at the Flexyfit Academy and was able to take on a new, demanding challenge with my chosen course. The structure of the training courses is very understandable and clear, so that you can master the distance learning course on your own without any problems. If there were any questions, ambiguities or isolated problems, the Academy team was always quick to help and we could always find a common solution. Here and there I would have liked a little more practical relevance. Nevertheless, I always felt very comfortable, had great speakers and with my degree as a qualified medical sports coach, many new doors are now open to me :)
