6 dimensions of wellness
occupational social physical intellectual spiritual emotional
public health definition
promotes and protects health
prevents disease and disability in defined populations and communities
5 public health areas
epidemiology environmental health promotion/education health administration biostatistics
public health shift
infectious to chronic
epidemiology
distribution, determinants of disease & disabilities in population
health definition
state of being free from illness or injury
health promotion
getting people to improve health
health education
teaching about health
health administration / policy
leadership, management, administration
Biostatistics
data relating to living organisms
skill related fitness (6)
agility balance coordination speed power reaction
health related fitness (4)
cardiovascular/muscular endurance
muscular strength
flexibility
body composition
metabolic fitness (3)
blood glucose
blood lipid
blood hormone
bone fitness (1)
bone density
exercise physiology definition
body structures and functions are altered by acute bout of exercise
body adapts to stress of training
case study
one or few individuals
cross sectional
different groups at a given point
case control
individuals with conditions analyzed for past behaviors
longitudinal
groups over a long period of time
experimental
group before and after training
graded exercise test
maximal aerobic capacity
sliding filament theory
thick slide past thin, stay at constant length
thick muscle
myosin
thin muscle
actin
muscle fiber types
fast twitch
slow twitch
VO2 max
maximal amount of oxygen used at maximal exercise
lactate threshold
exercise intensity when blood concentration lactic acid increases
switch to anaerobic
1 MET =
3.5 ml/kg/min
gross
all
net
exercise
MET - 1
finding energy expenditure in kcal
MET x Body weight x hours
Phosphagen system
creatine
immediate
10 seconds
glycolysis
glucose in cell and muscle
short term
20-120 sec
anaerobic definition
without oxygen
anaerobic metabolism types
phosphagen
glycolysis
aerobic definition
with oxygen
aerobic metabolism types
oxidative phosphorylation
oxidative phosphorylation
fat
slower energy production
3+ minutes
4 principles of training
specificity
overload
progression
reversibility
why does VO2 max increase
stroke volume increases
coronary circulation increases
why does lactate threshold shift
increased blood blow
more mitochondria, less lactate
fast twitch
light
anaerobic
strength and speed
slow twitch
dark
aerobic
endurance
what happens when we age
HR max stroke volume reaction time coordination balance flexibility strength muscle fibers
differences in females
lower cardiovascular and strength
lower hemoglobin
smaller heart (stroke volume)
less muscle
PA epidemiology
study of who, what, when, and where
relationship between PA, health, disease
prevalence
total cases of a disease in a given population at a certain time
trend
long term movement or change in frequency
BRFSS
state based telephone survey
NCHA
interview
