Q

Peripheral artery disease specifically affects the arteries in the = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) specifically affects the arteries in the legs.

  • PAD is also a type of peripheral vascular disease.

Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) can affect any blood vessel outside of the heart and brain.

  • PVD is a general term for any vascular condition that affects the blood vessels.

Q

Lipid Profile

High Risk:

  • Total Cholesterol = ?
  • LDL = ?
  • HDL = ?
  • Triglycerides = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

High Risk:

  • Total Cholesterol = > 240
  • LDL = > 160
  • HDL = < 400
  • Triglycerides = > 200
17
Q

Duration of each exercise session = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Duration of Each Exercise Session:

- Minimal duration threshold: 20-30 min / session

  • Long-duration, low-intensity exercise

- Longer sessions of moderate intensity recommended for most

- High-intensity exercise is associated with:

  • Greater cardiovascular risk
  • Greater chance of orthopedic injury
  • Lower adherence to training
18
Q

Aerobic

Frequency of Training

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Frequency of Training

  • Minimal threshold = 3 days/Wk
  • Most increases in peak O2 consumption occur with 3 d·wk-1
  • Increased frequency up to 5 d·wk-1 increases aerobic capabilities.

  • Training frequencies >5 days/weekk = increase incidence of injury
19
Q

Aerobic Training

  • Minimal threshold (HR) = ?
  • Range for near-optimal gains (HR) = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Intensity = Most important variable

  • Minimal threshold: 55-65% of maximal heart rate (HRmax).
  • Upper end of range for health & fitness gains = 94% of HRmax
  • Range for near-optimal gains: 77-90% HRmax
20
Q

Formula to determine MAX Exercise HR = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Formula to determine exercise HR:

  • HRmax = 207 − (0.7 × age in years)
21
Q

A specific % of HRmax represents a higher or ** lower %** of peak O2 consumption ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

A specific % of HRmax represents a lower % of peak O2 consumption.

22
Q

Karvonen method formula = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

HRR Method (Karvonen method): Used to estimate the HR needed to exercise at a specific % of peak O2 consumption.

- Formula =

  • 220-age = Max HR
  • Max HR - Resting HR = Heart Rate Reserve (HHR)
  • HRR x Training Int % + Resting HR = Karvonen method
  • For fitness gains, train at 40-85% peak O2 consumption

HRR = HRmax − HRrest

  • Target HR (THR) is HR needed to exercise at a specific % of peak O2 consumption.
23
Q

Metabolic Equivalents

1 MET = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Metabolic Equivalents:

- 1 METt task = rate of O2 consumption at rest

  • Measure intensity of activity in how many times greater than resting O2 consumption is required to perform it
  • Resting O2 consumption = 3.5 mL·kg·min
  • 3 METs = 3 × 3.5 mL·kg·min-1 = 10.5 mL·kg·min-1
  • The greater the METs, the greater the intensity
    Has limitations, due to variance in environmental conditions & hydration status
24
Q

Aerobic Training Guidelines

  • Minimal threshold (min/day) = ?
  • Intensity = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Duration may progress from:

  • Minimal threshold (20-30 min/day) / 60 min/day = upper to limit for aerobic fitness.
  • Intensity may progress from 55% HRmax to 90% HRmax.
25
Q

Interval Duration = ?

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Interval Duration:

  • 5−10 sec for short-term sprint
  • 30 sec−2 min for intermediate sprint
  • > 2 min for aerobic/endurance
26

Training Rx for Health and Performance

A

Fartlek training: Running training which involves random variations in speed and intensity, alternating between bursts of sprinting and slower ‘recovery’ jogging

Detraining

A
28
Q

Detraining

  • Effects on Strength Training = ?
  • Effects on Aerobic Training = ?
A

- Effects on Strength Training

  • Cessation = loss of strength & power
  • Reduced volume = strength is maintained if intensity is maintained

- Effects on Aerobic Training

  • Cessation = Rapid decrease in peak O2 consumption
  • Reduced volume = Aerobic capabilities are maintained if intensity is maintained
