Ch 1 ACSM - Risks and Benefits of PA Flashcards
mobilization
low workload activity to manage cardiopulmonary dysfunction
goal of mobilization
optimize oxygen transport through exercise
mobilization prescription
provides gravitational and exercise stimulus
physical activity
bodily movement produced by muscle contraction that increases metabolic demand substantially over the resting state
goal of physical activity
activity aimed at improving aerobic capacity
physical activity prescription
150 mins of moderate to vigorous OR 300 mins of moderate intensity
exercise
a form a physical activity that is structured and repetitive; moderate intensity
goal of exercise
maximize function of oxygen transport to all structures
exercise prescription
prescribed by PTs in the management of subacute and chronic cardiopulmonary conditions
training
systematic application of progressive exercise to elicits physiological, functional, or skills-based goals
goal of training
completion of a specific activity to improved a patient-defined goal
training prescription
includes and anaerobic exercise and resistance exercise
oxygen consumption
amount of oxygen taken in during activity (VO2)
goal of oxygen consumption
improved aerobic capacity
oxygen consumption prescription
increasing PA will improve VO2
health-related physical fitness components
cardiorespiratory endurance, body composition, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility
cardiorespiratory endurance
ability of the CP system to supply oxygen during PA
body composition
relative amounts of muscle, fat, bone, and other vital parts of the body
