Q

Exercise and Mood

*_______ of measurement is important!

  • Pre-Exercise Affect
  • Provides a _______ for change and comparison.
  • Post-Exercise Affect
  • Almost always [positive/negative?] after exercise of any intensity or duration.
  • During-Exercise Affect
  • Dependent upon intensity.
  • Popular notions about intensity
  • Many promote vigorous exercise without much consideration of affective responses.
  • -“Go hard or go home!”
  • -“No pain, no gain!”

Q

Dual Mode Model

*Conceptual framework for the relationship between exercise ______ and _____.

A

intensity and affect

17
Q

Dual Mode Model

  • Domains of intensity:
  • ________: below AT (anaerobic threshold)
  • Heavy: around/slightly above AT.
  • ______: well above AT.

*Model suggests affective response is the result of interplay between physiological signals and psychological processes

A

Moderate

Severe

18
Q

Pertaining to the Dual Mode Model, it’s most important to know how individuals feel [pre/during/post] exercise.

A

DURING (in task)

19
Q

Exercise and In-Task Mood

  • Exercise intensity
  • Moderate: affect almost always [positive/negative?]
  • Heavy: affect varies based on perceptions/psychology.
  • Severe: affect almost always [positive/negative?]
A

positive

negative (reduced)

20
Q

Exercise and In-Task Mood

  • Key Points:
  • [Pre-task/In-task] affect is more predictive of future behavior than post-exercise affect.
  • High intensity is good for physiology but not for ______ (and adherence).
A

In-task

affect

21
Q

Dynamics of Mood Responses

(AT = anaerobic threshold)

  • When should affect be measured?
  • During, before, or after exercise.
  • Affect experienced during an exercise bout may be distinct from the affective change reported before and after exercise.
  • Below AT: [positive/negative?] during and [positive/negative?] after.
  • Above AT: neutral/negative during and [positive/negative?] after.
  • Implications for exercise prescription
  • Post-exercise positive feelings might not be sufficient to override negative feelings during.
A

Below AT: POSITIVE during and POSITIVE after

Above AT: neutral/negative during and POSITIVE after.

22
Q

What About Intervals?

  • Intervals completed at near ________ intensity seem to provide a potent physiological benefit without significant compromise in affect (and perhaps adherence).
  • Interval Intensity: 80-90%.
  • Interval Length: less than 2 minutes.
  • Work-Rest Ratio: approximately 1:1.
A

maximal

23
Q

Practical Recommendations

  • Become aware of how people feel when they do and do not exercise.
  • Schedule exercise time during [high/low?] energy periods.
  • Non-excessive exercise results in more [positive/negative?] affective responses, particularly if done below ventilatory threshold.

*_________ exercise tends to increase energy and mood.

*Exact characteristics needed to maximize affect are not yet clear, but intensity must be carefully considered.

A

low

positive

Moderate
