Q

What were the parameters of the study on postinfarction heart failure?

A

Uphill treadmill walking over 12 weeks. 2 supervised sessions, 1 Session at home.

18
Q

Fill in the blanks from the AIT study.

Warm up: __%-__% peak HR
4 intervals __%-__% peak HR
3 active pauses __%-__% peak HR
Cool down __%-__% peak HR

A

60-70
90-95
50-70
50-70

19
Q

What did the MCT group do in the study?

A

47min at 70-75% HR

20
Q

What were the results of the AIT vs. MCT? (6)

A
  1. Increased exercise intensity
  2. Increased treadmill slope
  3. Increased % peak HR
  4. Increased % Borg scale
  5. Increased Vo2 peak
  6. Increased O2 cost

Both improved QOL

21
Q

What are the three types of interval conditioning?

A
  1. Spontaneous
  2. Fitness
  3. Performance
22
Q

How much should duration be increased?

A

1min increments as tolerated

23
Q

T/F: duration should be increased before intensity.

A

True

24
Q

What are three ways to increase intensity?

A

Activating the arms

Increasing resistance

Increasing speed

25
Q

What are 3 things to consider for the overload principle in OA?

A
  1. Recovery takes longer
  2. Safety margins are narrower
  3. Consequences of OT can be greater
26
Q

Is manipulating intensity or volume more stressful for OA?

A

Intensity

27
Q

What does the challenge principle mean?

A

Increase demands on multiple body systems

28
Q

T/F: Increasing challenge is the same as manipulating exercises variables in overload.

A

False, it is increasing the complexity of the task

29
Q

What two factors can affect the ability of OA to perform?

A
  1. Medications
  2. Muscle soreness from previous Session
30
Q

Which two variables have the more direct bearing on aerobic training volume?

A

Frequency and duration

31
Q

T/F: short sessions (3x10min) produce less cardiovascular gains then longer sessions (1x30min).

A

False, similar cardio gains

32
Q

What are 3 methods of measuring workload?

A
  1. HR
  2. Borg scale
  3. MET
33
Q

What are rhe disadvantages of using HR to measure workload?

A
  1. Less reliable in OA (because of meds)
  2. Participants must slow to take HR
  3. Self palpation is often inaccurate
  4. % of HR reserve may represent a higher than expected % of VO2max
34
Q

What are two categories and things that the RPE scale takes into account?

A
  1. Central: heart rate and breathing
  2. Local: muscle fatigue
35
