James — I am preparing the practical video assessments for the Active IQ Level 2 Gym Instructing qualification. I would like your help making sure the planned session and filming meet the assessment requirements.
Active IQ Digital Recording Policy — filming rules: ID, framing, consent, continuous recording, and compliance expectations.
Level 2 Gym Instructor Blueprint — confirms the required video assessments: client interview, 1-to-1 practical assessment, and group induction practical.

L2 Programme Card - John Critchley - programme-card template/session material for the 1-to-1 practical.
Please focus on whether the planned assessment delivery and filming setup satisfy the Level 2 assessment checklists.
For filming, please check only the assessment-specific risks: camera framing and audio must show/hear learner and participant(s), the recording must cover the full required assessment sequence, and consent/ID requirements must be handled before recording.
The checked documents require these practical/video elements: client consultation/interview, written client consultation card, programme card/session plan, 1-to-1 practical assessment video, self-evaluation worksheet, and group induction practical video with at least three participants.
Use this policy only for recording compliance: ID/name/date of birth at the start, consent, continuous recording, camera framing, audio, full-session coverage, and permitted segmentation only for upload-size reasons.
The useful blueprint pages are: page 2 for the assessment set; page 6 for the client consultation video; page 7 for programme card requirements; page 8 for the 1-to-1 assessment sequence; page 10 for group induction.
Programme card requirements from blueprint page 7: 45-60 minutes; CV warm-up plus 5 dynamic stretches; main CV component; 2 resistance-machine exercises; 2 free-weight exercises; 1 bodyweight exercise; 1 functional exercise; CV cool-down; maintenance stretches; at least 1 developmental stretch; planned regressions/progressions/modifications.
The key LAP pages are: page 29 for client-selection rules; page 30 for consultation/planning/observation/self-evaluation learner guidance; page 31 for the consultation checklist; page 33 for the session-planning mark scheme; page 34 for the 1-to-1 observed-session checklist; page 39 for group induction learner guidance; page 40 for the group induction checklist.
Important client-selection rule from page 29: the client must be a real person with specific legitimate goals and must be apparently healthy, with no conditions outside gym instructor/personal trainer scope of practice, and able to take part in the planned session.
1-to-1 checklist focus from page 34: James should check that the delivery covers the formal assessment behaviours - screening, health and safety, technical demands, demonstration, teaching points, observation/correction, adaptations, intensity monitoring, client feedback, timing, safe lifting/passing/spotting where relevant, end-of-session feedback, signposting, and leaving equipment/environment in good order.
Summary of assessor feedback from the Assessed LAP, reviewed 2026-08-11. Written/theory units are essentially complete bar two REFER items; practical observation checklists are not yet marked.
Professionalism & customer care worksheet (full marks, praised for expanding on the Equality Act, Q1); Personal & professional development plan (clear TNA/SWOT/goals); Health & safety worksheet (full marks); Health promotion infographic (passed — watch background photo colours obscuring text); Programme card / session plan (passed — vary progression methods beyond weight, e.g. tempo, time under tension).
1. Risk assessment, maintenance checks & handover — Task 3 (maintenance checklist) lost a mark for blank rows where no fault was found. Fix: complete every row, even "no fault", to keep a clear record.
2. Client consultations worksheet (nutrition) — referred because the Eatwell Guide labelling is missing the water/minerals segment (the triangle symbol on the plate). Fix: add this to the diagram.
Practical observation checklists — consultation, 1-to-1 summative session, self-evaluation, group induction — all have blank assessor feedback sections in the LAP as of 2026-08-11.
Reply drafted to Chris Johnson (tutor) covering: (1) the two REFER corrections above — maintenance checklist completed in full, Eatwell Guide water/minerals segment added; offer to resend the full corrected LAP if preferred; (2) the farmers carry question from TFG/questions-for-tutor. The reps and silent-demo questions were already answered by Chris on 24 Jul 2026 (found on review of Gmail attachments/history), so they've been dropped from this reply. Not yet confirmed sent — a check-in reminder is set for 2026-08-12 09:00 to verify.
