Q
Aerobic Fitness Testing VO2 and outcome measures: healthy populations vs. patient populations
A
Healthy Population:
- submax or maximal VO2 (true VO2max)
- outcome measures: aerobic fitness, actual HRmax, anaerobic threshold (lactate), training
Patient Population:
- symptom limited VO2 (peak VO2)
- outcome measures: establish diagnoses, functional capacity, responses to training, training
1
Q
Fitness Testing- Aerobic, Anaerobic, and Resistance (level of performance is base on…, and is the capacity to…)
A
Aerobic: level of perf based on O2 consumption, capacity to transport and utilize oxygen
Anaerobic: level of perf based on power output, capacity to generate large forces quickly
Resistance: level of perf based on force production, capacity to generate force regardless of timespan
2
Q
Stress Testing: intervals, test ends when
A

17
Q
Principles of Training
A
Overload Specificity- SAID Principle Individual Differences Reversibility Law of Diminishing Return
18
Q
Aerobic Training Adaptations
A
- Metabolic:
- cellular- mitos, enzyme activity
- fat- more efficient at burning fat for energy
- carbohydrate- preserve as glycogen, liver doesn’t need gluconeogenesis
- Muscle Fiber*******
- Cardiovascular:
- good cardiac hypertrophy
- increase in plasma volume
- decreased resting HR
- increased CO=SV*HR
- better oxygen extraction
- blood flow
- lower resting BP
- Pulmonary: ventilatory endurance
- Lactic acid accumulation less b/c of improved lactate clearance
19
Q
Additional Adaptations
A
- body composition
- body heat transfer
- performance
- psychological
20
Q
Factors that Affect Responses
A
- initial fitness level
- training intensity
- training frequency
- training duration
21
Q
Describing Intensity
A
- total energy expenditure
- absolute power level (not related to fitness level)
- relative metabolic level (% VO2max)
- heart rate
- METs
- RPE
22
Q
Aerobic capacity improves if intensity maintains HR between….
A
between 55-70% HRmax
23
Q
Training Frequency (for weight loss, improve fitness, recommendation)
A
- weight loss: 60 min duration or 300 kcal expenditure minimum
- generally agreed that 1 day per week not enough to improve fitness
- recommendation: 3 days per week
24
Training Mode
- exercises involving large muscle groups
- continuous: 60-80% VO2max
- interval: 1 to 1 work to recovery, depend on goals, monitor HR
25
When will improvements occur?
- Aerobic improvements occur after several weeks
| - Cardiovascular, pulmonary, and metabolic adaptations- short term
26
Anaerobic Training (energy source, training what)
- training for all out power
- high energy intramuscular phosphates: ATP-PCr
- challenges lactate clearance
27
Changes Specific to Anaerobic Training
*look at slide on computer
28
Overtraining
- increased incidence of illness and injury
- inability to fully recover from exercise
- increased sympathetic activity during rest: hyperexcitability, restlessness, emotional
- parasympathetic vagal activity during rest: over reaching = not able to perform as well because of inability to fully recover
29
Force, O2 consumption, Time/Power associates with what training
force = resistance
O2 consumption = aerobic
time/power = anaerobic
30
What are the 5 Training Principles
```
Overload
Specificity
Reversibility
Individual Differences
Law of Diminishing Return
```
31
What happens when muscles hypertrophies?
- tear of muscle fibers
- debris is cleared
- protein is brought in and rebuilds, but overcompensates
- larger CSA of muscle fibers
32
Two Categories of Muscle Fiber Types
Type I = aerobic oxidative energy pathways
Type II = ATP-PCr (fast) or glycolytic (kinda fast) energy pathways, can never become type I but can shift between fast and medium fast pathways
