    HOW TO ORGANIZE A FITNESS EVENT FOR
    A TARGET HEALTH ISSUE OR CONCERN
     
    THESE ARE THE FEW STEPS ONE CAN FOLLOW IN ORDER TO ORGANIZE A FITNESS EVENT.

    1.Identify a goal, target, or health issue to address.


    Normally, fitness events try to address health concerns such as
    weight management or obesity. It is important to have a target in
    mind in order to plan for a proper activity.
    2. Do your research.
    When having a health concern in mind, do your research and learn the basic terminologies and aspects of
    that area. If the concern is obesity, for example, learn or review about the concepts such as eating habits, health
    risk factors, BMI (body mass index, the measure of body fat based on height and weight), and so on.
    3. Look for a location or venue.
     Having in mind your health concern and being familiar with your topic or
    issue, you may now plan for an activity. One of the major physical concerns
    for any event or physical activity is the venue, you will need to secure the right
    venue for the event. For fitness activities, courts, multipurpose halls,
    swimming pools, function halls, or even streets and pedestrian lanes, can be
    utilized for the activities. Just be sure to have these venues reserved
    beforehand.
    4. Build your team.
    Identify members of your team. The team leader must delegate tasks for efficiency and
    economy. For bigger events, some of the team members may be assigned to be committee
    heads. You can make a general grouping of committees such as-venues and logistics
    committee; food and drinks committee; promotions and recruitment committee; finance
    committee; registration committee; and so on.
    5.Document.
    Before, during, and after the event, it would be proper to have a
    documentation. This comes in the form of pictures, videos, and written
    records. Cover and record your event, and make a post-event reporting and
    evaluation. This will help you keep track of your progress and will help you
    reflect on the points that need improvement. A record and portfolio of the
    event would give you a basis for future events based on the feedback from the
    previous ones
