CV- Additional Info

Question 1

conversion table

Answer 1

METS
x3.5
relative VO2 (ml/kg/min)
xBW (kg)/1000
absolute VO2 (L/min)
x5
kcal/min
x total number of minutes
total kcal

Question 2

mesocycle

Answer 2

4-6 weeks

Question 3

relative intensity (physiologic)

Answer 3

HRR, % HR max, VO2 %

Question 4

why wouldn’t we be able to prescribe relative intensities with general guidelines

Answer 4

clients taking medications that significantly influence HR

Question 5

absolute intensity

Answer 5

mph, watts, kgm/min
-not always possible because exercise testing data isn’t readily available

Question 6

do NOT prescribe absolute intensity unless…

Answer 6

unless it was acquired from testing data

Question 7

if absolute intensity cannot be prescribed, what do we use

Answer 7

relative intensity

Question 8

relative intensity (non-physiologic)

Answer 8

RPE, modified RPE, OMNI scale, talk test, counting talk test

Question 9

when is relative intensity (non-physiologic) used

Answer 9

only if relative (physiologic) or absolute cannot be prescribed
-because it is not nearly as accurate as other relative measures

Question 10

after stroke volume plateaus, describe HR relationship with VO2

Answer 10

nearly linear

Question 11

how does HR differ from other absolute measures of intensity

Answer 11

it is autoregulatory

Question 12

% of HR max or HRR are more accurate

Answer 12

HRR
-because HRR considers resting HR

Question 13

HRR

Answer 13

preferred relative measure of intensity for CV programs
-always going to be our default for programs
-considers resting HR + autoregulatory nature of HR, which makes it more accurate than other measures

Question 14

what does HRR look at

Answer 14

how much HR we have left between resting level + maximal level

Question 15

what should be the 1st option for CV prescriptions

Answer 15

HRR calculated based off GXT results
-paired with proper absolute intensity

Question 16

when wouldn’t we use HRR

Answer 16

if we have a medication that influences HR
ex: beta blockers

Question 17

50% HRR = ____ on modified RPE

Answer 17

5

Question 18

6 on modified RPE = ____% HRR

Answer 18

60%

Question 19

____ has 1:1 relationship with ____

Answer 19

%HRR has 1:1 relationship with %VO2R

Question 20

HRR equation

Answer 20

(max HR – resting HR)*desired intensity + resting HR

Question 21

HR max equation

Answer 21

220 - age

Question 22

% HR max calculation

Answer 22

max HR x %

Question 23

1 MET = ____

Answer 23

3.5 ml/kg/min

Question 24

what does 1 MET signify

Answer 24

resting energy expenditure
-aka energy required for our body to stay alive at rest

Question 25

MET is absolute/relative measure of intensity

Answer 25

absolute
-unless using as % of client’s maximal ability

Question 26

moderate intensity in METs

Answer 26

3-6 METs

Question 27

high intensity in METs

Answer 27

greater than 6 METs

Question 28

MET-min

Answer 28

how many METs you are training at for the number of minutes you are training at
-METs x min

Question 29

solve for MET-min:
8 METs for 40 min

Answer 29

240 MET-min
