Which of the following is NOT a professional responsibility of an instructor?

Dietary consultation is not a professional responsibility of a group exercise instructor because it typically requires specialized training and a specific credential, such as a registered dietitian or nutritionist. Group exercise instructors focus primarily on leading physical activity sessions, ensuring participant safety, and providing guidance related to exercise techniques and program design. While instructors may offer general health and wellness advice, providing tailored dietary consultations can cross into the realm of nutrition counseling, which is outside their expertise without appropriate qualifications.

In contrast, personal liability coverage, CPR AED and First Aid training, and having an emergency response plan are essential responsibilities for instructors. Personal liability coverage protects instructors in the event of lawsuits resulting from injuries during exercise classes, ensuring they can continue to operate their business safely. CPR AED and First Aid training equips instructors with the necessary skills to respond effectively to medical emergencies, thereby ensuring the safety of their participants. An emergency response plan outlines procedures and actions to take in case of emergencies, further enhancing the safety and preparedness of the exercise environment.
