3: Health and Risk Assessment Flashcards
principle to keep in mind in order to avoid exercise risks
FITT Principle
proper planning before outdoor activities that includes understanding the risks and risk management
Pre-session Planning
systematic analysis of one’s operations for potential risk exposures and setting forth a plan to reduce the severity and frequency of such exposures
Risk Management
6 factors to consider in Risk Analysis
- Activity
- Location
- Participant/Leader Competence
- Environmental Conditions
- Foreseeable Scenarios
- Potential Consequences
consideration of various factors in order to take preventive measures before an activity
Risk Analysis
characterized by the amount of fear present in each activity
Stages of Adventure
4 Stages of Adventure
- Play
- Adventure
- Frontier Adventure
- Misadventure
adventure that involves no fear or very little challenges and can sometimes be seen as plain or boring
Play
adventure that has some degree of fear present in the activity with the person still being in full control of the situation
Adventure
activity that has a high degree of fear
Frontier Adventure
activity with the highest degree of fear that often results to failure
Misadventure
developed by the Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology to determine if there are any underlying conditions in the body before an activity
PAR-Q
developer of PAR-Q
Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology
PAR-Q
Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire
7-question questionnaire with the purpose to assess health condition and is answerable by yes or no
PAR-Q
6 Classification of Physical Fitness Assessment
- Movement Patterns
- Core
- Upper Body Muscular Strength
- Lower Body Muscular Strength
- Cardiorespiratory Endurance
- Flexibility
beginning of all movements
Proper Posture
movement patterns developed from repeated daily movements
Habitual Movements
“repetitive movements”
Movement Patterns
7 Fundamental Patterns of Movements
- Squat
- Lunge
- Push
- Pull
- Bend
- Twist
- Walk
structures that make up the lower back, pelvis, the hips, and the abdomen
Core
center of gravity where all movement starts
Core
developed by MacKenzie to measure core strength and endurance
Sport-Specific Endurance Plank Test
tests that measure the functional abilities of the shoulders and the torso
Upper Body Muscular Strength
2 tests of Upper Body Muscular Strength
Push-ups
The bend and pull test
measured for lower body muscular control
Lower Body Muscular Strength
skill-related fitness important for unstable environments tested through the stork stand test
Balance
the ability of the body to perform large muscle dynamic, moderate to high intensity exercise for prolonged periods
Cardiorespiratory Endurance
ability of the joint to move around a range of motion
Flexibility
