Q

Who will see the most gains?
• A = 42 year old man with BMI 30, office executive
• B = 42 year old man with BMI 22, gym teacher

A

A, because he has lower fitness so more room for improvement. He also has a sedentary job.

24
Q

For HRR, what are the different % for levels of intensity?

A

less than 40 % for low intensity
40-60% moderate intensity
60-90% high intensity

25
Q

whats more accurate: HRmax or HRR?

A

HRR formula is more accurate and has less error when looking at the relationship between HR and VO2

26
Q

How much does 1 MET equal?

A

3.5 mL O2/kg/min

27
Q

What is 1 MET defined as?

A

resting, seated adult oxygen consumption

28
Q

What are the MET levels

A

light= 1.6-3.9
moderate= AIM here = 4 - 5.9
heavy= 6-7.9
very heavy= 8-9.9

29
Q

what is moderate for RPE scale?

A

3-4

30
Q

What do you want the client to focus on when determining RPE?

A

focus on total feeling of exertion

31
Q

what is moderate in the BORG scale?

A

12-14

32
Q

Max HR is lower for what type of exercises?

A

upper extremity exercises

33
Q

If you need to work at a lower intensity, how can you maintain the same workload?
What needs to increase?

A

increase the duration of their exercise

34
Q

HRR levels?

A
low= less than 40
moderate = 40-60
high= 60-90
35
Q

What are 2 things you should increase before increasing intensity?

A

duration and frequency

36
Q

volume formula

A

F x I x T

37
Q

Total Energy Expenditure of ? is associated with lower rates of CVD and lower mortality rates

A

500-1000 MET-min/week

38
Q

Exercise dose recommendations for adults?

A

moderate intensity 150 min/week OR 75 minutes vigorous intensity/week PLUS 2 days strength training and flexibility

39
Q

For adults 65 and older, what do you do for exercises?

A

stays the same as normal adults but you add in balance exercises

40
Q

What should you include in the INITIAL phase?

A
10-15 min warm up
40-60% HRR
extended cool down
duration begins at 15 min, GOAL: 30-60 min
takes about 1-4 weeks
41
Q

When do you progress?

A

If you’re using HR formula, progress when the HR during training zone is at or below the lower prescribed range.

42
Q

general guideline for progression

A

increase of 5-10 minutes

each session every 1-2 weeks for the first month tomonth and a half of training

43
Q

What do you change for the improvement stage?

A

shorter warm up and cool down
increase duration and intensity
usually 5-24 weeks

44
Q

What happens during maintenance stage?

A

weeks 24+
3-5 days/week
20-60 min

45
Q

How do you maintain aerobic fitness?

A

keep the intensity!!

46
Q

continuous

47
Q

A

start for 5 stop for 5

48
Q
