Exercise Prescription Flashcards
Therapeutic Exercise/ Exercise Prescription
Systematic, planned performance of movements, postures and physical activities
ICF is now referred to as
Needs analysis
Exercise parameters is now referred to as
Exercise order Frequency Load & Reps Volume Rest periods
SAID
Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands
Type of demand placed on the body dictates the adaption
Incorporate exercises that mimic the desired movement pattern
Encourages sport specific muscle recruitment
“You get what you train for.”
Exercise Rx principles (3)
1) Specificity
2) Overload
3) Progression
Overload
Applying a stimulus greater than what is accustomed to
Methods to overload
Intensity (load)
Volume (reps/sets)
Rest period
Complexity
Progression
The practice of progressively increasing the intensity of training
Promotes long-term levels of higher performance
Systematic, gradual, and goal-oriented = Periodization
Resistance Training Program Design Variables
1) Needs analysis
2) Exercise selection
3) Exercise order
4) Frequency
5) Training load and reps
6) Volume
7) Rest period
Needs analysis: Sport assessment
Movement analysis - desired activity (muscle groups)
Physiological analysis - which pathway we’re using
Injury analysis
Needs analysis: Athlete assessment
1) Training status
2) Training goal
3) Physical testing
Metabolic pathways used depend on (2)
Event duration
Event intensity
Duration/Intensity for Phosphagen system
0-6s
High
Lifting a 25lb baby overhead
Duration/Intensity for Glycolysis system
6s-2m
Moderate
Climbing a flight of stairs
Duration/Intensity for Aerobic Physphorylation system
> 2 min
Low
Dog walking or Running long distances
Classification of training status by (2)
Current level of preparedness
Exercise history
5 factors to classify status of training
1) Current program
2) Training age
3) Frequency
4) Training
5) Technique experience and skill
How are goals determined (2)
Sport assessment and personal goals
Example test of strength
10 RM leg press
Example test of power
Margarita stair climb
Example test of muscle endurance
Max rep pushups
Example test of balance
Y balance
