Q

ROM assessment overview

A

Locate the full crumb at the joint axis or hinge point

Were the Access of rotation occurs from the two body segments

Instruct the client to move body segments slowly until they can’t go further without discomfort

All anatomical landmarks are identified, joint access point has been clearly defined,

Q

Why muscular fitness

A

Adults should also do muscular strengthening activities that are moderate or high intense to involve all major muscle groups on two or more days a week as these activities provide additional health benefits

Q

Why measure muscular fitness

A

Prerequisite for good physical function, ability to lift or move objects

Sarcopenia- inability to perform daily tasks

Q

Unique assessment principles

A

There are 700 skeletal muscles with a very performance levels

Therefore there is no single measurement that provides an assessment of an individual muscular shrig the muscular endurance

Q

Types of contractions

A

Isometric/static - generation a force without movement and no change in joint angle

Dynamic
Eccentric- muscle is lengthened during contraction
Concentric- muscle to shorten during contraction

Q

Before flexibility test

A

Procedure should include a warm up prior to assessment has it increases blood circulation of muscles and help refamiliarize the client with the lifting method

17
Q

Strength

A

Measurement of the maximal force capability of the muscle

18
Q

Endurance

A

Measurement of the ability to continue performing contractions at a some maximal level

19
Q

Dynamic strength assessment

A

Bench press for upper body and leg press for lower body

20
Q

Endurance assessments

A

Fix number contractions and define time, Maximum number of contractions of us at resistance, instead of contraction help for time

21
Q

Dynamic endurance assessment field tets

A

Able to test larger groups of people, new equipment required, common tests include push-ups, maximal repetitions perform with proper technique or measured, standard technique and procedures is crucial

22
Q

Endurance assessment static

A

Time tests of holding a some maximum contraction

23
Q

Cardio respiratory fitness

A

Reflects the functional capabilities of the heart, blood vessels, lungs and skeletal muscles to perform work

The ability to perform large muscle, dynamic, moderate to high intensity exercise for prolonged periods

Maximal aerobic capacity, functional capacity, physical work capacity, cardiovascular endurance, fitness or capacity

24
Q

Why does your cardio respiratory fitness

A

Concerned one of the best indicators of collective health. Individualization of exercise prescription. Relation a function in every day activities

25
Q

Field test

A

Take place in Verris nonlaboratory settings typically administered by group of people

26
Q

Submaximum exercise tests

A

Tests with the level of effort limited to some maximal exertion, typically perform on individual and the laboratory setting
I fixed amount of work per unit of time, often require multiple stages of a test, limit clients efforts to less than maximum exertion

27
Q

Deciding which method to use

A

Time required, expense, personal required, equipment and facilities required and risk level

28
Q

Pretest enerization for Carter respiratory fitness assessment

A

We’re comfortable exercise type clothing, avoid tobacco and caffeine three hours prior to the test, void alcohol 12 hours prior to test, have plenty of fluids and avoid strengers exercise the previous 24 hours, obtain properly sleep

29
Q

Field test for prediction of aerobic capacity overview

A

Low cost, general safe, some tests may result in maximal or near max modulation

30
Q

Some maximum exercise tests

A

I fixed amount of work per unit of time, often require multiple stages of a test, limit clients efforts to less than maximum exertion

31
Q

Some maximum exercise tests monitoring

A

Signs of fatigue or distress, heart rate pulse palpation and blood pressure

32
Q

Standard protocols

A

Bruce, balke ware, BSU Bruce, running, cycle

33
Q

Submaximal Exercise Tests: Modes Cycle Ergometer Advantages

A
  • non weight bearing
  • low safety risk of falling
  • easier to measure BP and HR
  • less cost and space
34
Q

Submaximal Exercise Tests: Modes Cycle Ergometer Disadvantages

A
  • not common mode of exercise or activity for many adults
  • participants must maintain a constant pedaling speed
35
Q

YMCA Submaximal Cycle Test

A
  • two to four 3 minutes stages
  • total test 6-12 minutes long
  • Obatin two seperate workloads resulting in HR valyes between 110 and 150 bpm
36
Q

Astrand Submaximal Cycle Ergometer Test

A
  • one 6-minute stage of standardized work rate
  • HR between 125 and 170 bpm
  • pedal rate 50 rpm
  • steady heartrate is necessary at the end of 6-min stage or an additional 6 minutes is completed
37
Q

Field Test for Prediction of Aerobic Capacity: Field distance tets

A

Walk Test- subject is sedentary
- a formula using time and HR estimates CRF
- Typically, 1 mile
Walk/run tests- subject many utilize either method
- a formula using time estimates CRF
- typically, 1.5 miles

38
Q

Why use maximal exercise test to measure cardiorespiratory fitness

A
  • provides greater accuracy than submaximal tests
  • preferred for elite athletes and in clinical settings where results can influence treatment options
  • can provide valuable prognosis and diagnosis information for people with and without chronic diseases
39
Q

Protocols

A
  • ability to achieve maxial efforts in 6-15 minutes (ideally 8-12)
  • Treadmill work rate increases
    - by incline only or via speed and incline
    - in stages or gradual consistent increases (ramps)
40
Q

Standard Protocols: Bruce

A
  • 40 yr old
  • 3 min stage
  • both speed and grade increases for each stage
  • initial stage is set at MET level of 4.6
  • work rate increment is 3 metabolic equivalent (METs) per stage
    - may be too high for some individuals
41
Q

Supervisor

A
  • perform a pretest review of risk satisfaction and screening information
  • review info consent document
  • review exercise test procedures
  • ensure understanding that test can be stopped at anytime
  • inform staff if a thing unusual happens
  • explain the RPE scale
42
Q

Methods of measuremnt

A
  • visual
    -changes in distance
  • use of video
