Q

Rest and Recovery Principle - RT

A

48-72 hrs between muscle group workouts as long as intensity is moderate+

46
Q

2 for 2 rule

A

Exceed rep goal by 2 reps in all sets in consecutive sessions

47
Q

Major progression after 2 for 2 rule has been satisfied

A
  • increase sets, resistance lifted, exercise, # of sessions/muscle group
  • reduce rest between sets
  • change focus of RT program
  • vary tempo

then repeat 2 for 2 rule

48
Q

General rule for progressing RT plans

A

first increase by # of sessions to = 24H movement guideline

then increase # of sets, then increase intensity

49
Q

T o F: All SS lead to decrements in subsequent performance and muscular force

A

Likely true IF held for 60s or longer, no other general/specific warm up performed, and performance is immediately after

Likely false IF warm up includes general + specific

50
Q

FIT recommendations for static stretching

A
F = 2 - 7 days. week
I = midpoint of discomfort
T = 2-4 reps, 10-30+ stretch
T = at least 1 exercise for each major muscle group performed after general warm up

=> time progresses first

51
Q

FIT for PNF

A
F = 2 - 7 days. week
I = midpoint of discomfort
T = 2-4 reps, 10-30+ stretch
T = at least 1 exercise for each major muscle group performed after general warm up

PNF = initial passive static stretch of TM, isometric contraction for 5-6s against immovable resistance, 10-30s passive static stretch of TM, repeat

Flexibility adaptations happen faster with PNF than static

52
Q

GTO

A
  • response to increase in mm tension
  • GTO activated when TM contracts
  • TM inhibited mm and antagonist stimulated to contract
  • further stretch obtained in TM muscle
  • bases of PNF CR and CRAC
  • mm tension increases and activates GTO after 5-6s
53
Q

Muscle Spindle

A

-responds to rate of change of length
-activated with fast stretch of TM
-invokes reflexive contraction in TM and relaxation in ANTmm
-enter stretch slowly to reduce discharge of MS
=hold stretch for longer to reduce activity of MS

A

26.8%

57

  • dec quality of life
58
Q

AND client has it as a goal
59
Q

T or F: Clinically significant weight loss occurs with 10% reduction in body mass

A

False. 5%

60
Q

Quick and significant fat loss is the goal

A

Severe caloric restriction achieve the fastest results

This may also result in

  • severe weakness
  • depression
  • fatigue
  • anemia
  • bradycardia
  • edema
  • dec thyroid
  • reduce BM EE
61
Q

Weight loss through PA alone

A
  • both PA groups compensated with greater energy intake

- those with greater compensation reported increased appetite, particularly cravings for sweet foods

62
Q

If sustainable fat loss and prevention of disease is the goal

A

caloric restriction and exercise is recommended

exercise despite BMI has a protective effect on disease / premature death

  • maximizes fat loss (visceral)
  • minimizes muscle loss
  • reduces risk of comorbid conditions like CVD, diabetes, some cancers
  • improves psychological function
63
Q

Weight loss can result in..

A
  • increase appetite and energy intake
  • reduction of basal EE
  • change in behaviours (e.g., sleep and sit more)
64
Q

Energy content of 1lb of fat (~0.5 kg)

A

3500 kcal

65
Q

Physical activity accounts for __ total energy expenditure

A

30% (light PA and MVPA)

66
Q

Thermal effect of feed accounts for ___ of total energy expenditure

A

10%

67
Q

Basal Energy Expenditure accounts for __ of total energy expenditure

A

60% (vital organs, etc.)

68
Q

T o F: Energy Balance occurs when food intake is greater than energy out

A

False. Energy Balance: food intake = energy out

69
Q

T or F: A prescribed negative energy deficit of 3500 kcal will always result in weight loss

A

False. Energy balance is dynamic and there are many biological and behavioural factors influencing both sides of the energy equation

70
Q

Compensatory Model of Energy Management

A
  • As activity EE increases, BMR decreases
  • reflects discrepancy between amount of weight loss predicted from energy deficit and actual weight loss
  • could be due to: increased drive to eat, reduced basal EE, changed behaviours (reduced overall PA, adherence, more sleep)
  • controversial but may explain weight regain
71
Q

A

225-420 min/week or ~2000 kcal/week

72
Q

Healthy weight loss of __ per week is recommended

A

1-2lb, or 3500-7000 kcal/week (500-1000/day)

This should be achieved by dec energy intake and inc PA

73
Q

Energy deficit based on PA alone should be

A

1000 kcal/week progressing to 2000 kcal/week

-must also include strategies to dec overall energy intake and increase light PA

74
Q

QEP Nutrition Advise should be to the level of

A

Canada Food Guide

  • foods within each food group
  • serving sizes
  • recommended servings relative to clients age and activity level
  • refer to dietitian if necessary
75
Q

Ideal vs. Best weight

A

Best weight = sustainable and allows client to enjoy life, health benefits are achieved by moving to this weight

Ideal weight = predicted by BMI

Better to approximate weight loss goals based on 5% reduction of body mass

76
Q

Aerobic Prescription for Weight Loss (FITT)

A

F: 3 to 5-7 days/week
I: light-moderate to moderate-vigorous (ensure variety of types and intensities)
T: 10 to 60+ minutes/day (150 min/week to 300+ min/week)
-general goal to progress to 2000 kcal/week expended through PA
T: large muscle activities that reflect ADLS. Mixed modes is best.

77
Q

MSK Prescription for Weight Loss (FITT)

A

F: 2 days per week (ideally)
I: Moderate (50% or 70-85%)
T: 6-12 reps, more if endur, 2-5 sets (less if endur), 1-2 min rest
T: if appropriate, choose multi-joint high calorie consuming exercises over single-joint isolation exercises. Minimize excessive passive rest.

78
Q

Effect of Resistance training and caloric restriction on the Metabolic Syndrome

A
Weight loss: 
-RT + CR = 5.7% loss
-RT only = 0.2% loss
Waist Circumference:
-RT + CR = 5% decrease
-RT only = 1% dec
Metabolic Syndrome: reduced prevalence in RT and CR only
79
Q

T or F: Sedentary behaviour does not need to be addressed during weight loss programs

A

False. Individuals who maintained their weight loss for more than 1 year spent more time in MVPA and MVPA was greater than 10’/day, spent more time in light PA, and less time sedentary

80
Q

2 hours of light PA = ___ minute walk

A

30 minute walk

81
Q

Guidelines for preventing weight regain

A
  • progress to 90 min near-daily activity

- PA is one of th ebest predictors of weight maintenance after weight loss

82
Q

T or F: Behavioural interventions are not a key part of a comprehensive exercise program

A

False. Need to address behaviour and understand the root causes that contributed to fat gain and roadblocks to fat loss

83
Q

Benefits of using METS to describe intensity

A
  • Simple for general public to understand
  • METS are provided on most ‘cardio’ equipment (accessible)
  • easy to calculate EE once you know MET value for activity
  • physicians understand what is means to exercise at a given MET
84
Q

Disadvantage of using METs to describe intensity

A
  • assumes resting VO2 is the same for all people
  • is an absolute measure that does not take into account an individuals VO2max
  • it does not take into account environmental conditions (more accurate in lab conditions)
85
Q

MET equation for weight loss program

A

1 MET = VO2 at rest = 1kcal/kg/hour

EG: a 60kg male is walking on a treadmill for 1 hour at 3.5 mph at 4.3 METS, what is their estimated EE?

60 x 4.3 x 1 = 258 kcal

86
Q

3 Important factors for weight loss program design

A
  1. Determine total fat loss goal for initial phase of PA (5% = clinically significant improvement in health outcomes)
  2. Choose weekly fat loss rate (1-2 lbs/ week, 3500-7000 kcal)
  3. Ensure 1000-2000 kcal/week expended through PA
87
