genera test termination criteria for all v02 max protocals
Moderate to severe angina
- Excessive (>10mmHg) ↑ in BP (especially systolic)
- Shortness of breath, wheezing, leg cramps
- Signs of poor perfusion (light-headed, confusion, nausea, cold/clammy skin)
- Failure of HR to ↑ with exercise
- Noticeable change in heart rhythm
- Physical or verbal manifestations of severe fatigue
- Equipment failure
- Subject asks to stop
Oxygen consumption (VO2)
The volume of O 2 used by the body under given conditions
- Can be measured at rest, during submax exercise, or during max exercise
v02 mac
When VO2 is measured during max exercise
-Max volume of O 2 one can consume during exhausting exercise or
max rate of O 2 utilization of muscles during exercise
- Aka….Maximum aerobic power (MAP)
- Considered the BEST index of aerobic fitness
absolute v02
TOTAL volume of o2 taken into the body
relative vo2
volume of o2 taken into the body RELATIVE TO BODY WEIGHT
static flexibility
measure of the total ROM at a joint
dynamic flexibility
measure of the resistance developed during stretching throughout ROM
unlike static
dynamic flexibility requires active force production
(your own muscles contracting).
- Because it is difficult to quantify “stiffness”, dynamic is
measured more subjectively
