health related components of fitness
cardiorespiratory fitness/endurance, muscular strength, flexibility, body comp
resting measurements should be obtained when
first
What are the pros of a cardiorespiratory fitness test max-
provides the best assessment, provides the best data
What are the pros of a cardiorespiratory fitness test submax
takes less time to perform, may be safer
general indications for stopping the exercise test
onset of angina, drop in sbp with an increase in work rate,
excessive rise in bp, shortness of breath, signs of poor perfusion, failure of hr to increase, noticeable change in heart rhythm, request to stop, severe fatigue, failure of the testing equipment
gold standard
max vo2
submax 4 assumptions
there is a linear relationship between vo2 & hr and workload, the max hr at any given age is fixed (220-age), the mechanical efficiency (vo2 at any given wl is same for everyone), steady state heart rate can be achieved in 3-4 min at a constant submaximal work output
