Q

The 5 components of the relationship between the dose of a drug and the effect

A
  1. Potency
  2. Slope (change in effect is obtained from a change in dose)
  3. Maximal effect
  4. Variability
  5. Side effects (exercise prescription produces not a single effect)

Q

What are the dose response relationships between physical activity defined as minutes of exercise per week at 60 to 70% maximal work capacity

A
  1. Blood pressure and insulin sensitivity are most responsive to exercise
  2. Changes in VO2 max and resting heart rate are intermediate
  3. Serum lipid changes such as HDL are delayed

Q

What is moderate intensity PA defined as?

What is vigorous intensity PA defined as?

Q

The ratio between vigorous intensity to moderate intensity PA is

A

2:1 because they takes about twice the time when doing moderate intensity to achieve the age energy expenditure

16
Q

The ACSM guidelines recommmends resistance training how often

A

-one set or 8 to 12 repetitions of 8 to 10 exercises on 2 or more days per week to improve or maintain muscular strength and endurance

17
Q

For each 1 MET increase in cardiorespiratory fitness, the risk of death from all causes decreases

A

13%

18
Q

What is strenuous exercise impact on the heart

A

Increases the risk of heart attack during activity, but reduces the overall (rest + exercise) risk of such event

19
Q

Recommendations for using progression:

A
  1. Using the relative intensity to guide level of effort
  2. Transitioning from light to moderate to vigorous activity not the reverse
  3. Starting from light to moderate intensity activity and increase numbe of mins per day or days per week before increasing intensity
  4. Increase should be 10%
  5. Rate of increase is lower for older, less fit
20
Q

What part of exercise session is viewed as important in reducing change of hypotension episode after exercising

A

At end of session, about 5 mins of cool down activities are recommended

21
Q

The CRF training effect of exercise program is dependent on

A

Proper frequency, duration, and intensity of exercise sessions

22
Q

The ACSM recommends what as part of program to increase CRF

A
  • 20-60 mins per session, 3-5 sessions a week, at an intensity of about 40-89% of HRRR or oxygen uptake reserve
23
Q

What type of exercise is better for increasing VO2 Max?

A
  • high intensity exercise
24
Q

What percent range of exercise intensities is associated with an increase in VO2 max?

A

40-89% VO2R oxygen uptake reserve

25
Q

What is target heart rate?

A

Range of heart rate values associated with the exercise intensity needed to have a CRF training effect

26
Q

For most people however, what percent rate of VO2 max seems to be range sufficient enough to achieve CRF goals?

A

60-80%

27
Q

Indirect method for calculating target hear rate

A
  • know that VO2 and HR is linear
  • HRR or karvonen method of calculating THR has 3 rules:
    1. Subtract hr from maximal hr to obtain HRR
    2. Take 60-80% of HRR
    3. Add HRR to resign HR to obtain THR
28
Q

What is another indirect method of calculating THR

A

Percentage of maximal HR method where you take 70-85% of maximal heart rate to obtain THR

29
Q

When using the exercise heart rate value to estimate VO2 max, the error is about

A

6 6 % for 2/3 of population when measured maximal heart rate is known

30
Q

At lower intensities, what needs to happen to duration

A

A greater duration will be needed to achieve the same energy expenditure of someone working at a higher intensity

31
Q

Optimal characteristics fo vigorous intensity exercise program to increase VO2 max are

A

Intensity: 60-80%
Frequency: 3-4 times per week
Duration: minutes needed to achieve a volume of 500 to 1000 MET min per wekk

32
Q

The THR is a responsible estimate of proper exercise intensity when taken as

A

60-80% HRR or 70-85% of maximal HR

33
Q

What is the primary marker that the training effect is taking place for jogging?

A
  • as participant adapts to joggin, the HR response for any jogging speed will decrease and jogging speed will have to increase to stay in THR
34
Q

Important point of walking and jogging program

A
  1. Complete long walking program first
  2. Staying in THR zone
    Not progressing to next level if the participant is not comfortable with current level
35
Q

ACSM recommendation for stating stretching

A
  1. Stretching to point of mild discomfort holding for 10-30 secs
  2. Doing each stretch 2 to 4 times
  3. Stretching exercises >- 2 days per week

Dynamic, ballistic, and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) methods are useful for improving flexibility
