Potential Health Status indicator
2 components of fitness
Performance related & health related fitness
6 criteria for assessment
- The variables measured are specific and relevant
- The assessments are valid and reliable
- Tests are administered at appropriate time & repeated at regular intervals
- The administration of the assessments are rigidly controlled
- The basic human rights of the individual/athlete are respected.
- The results of the assessment must be explained directly to the athlete in written and verbal form.
Is absolute or relative risk better for people to understand?
Absolute
What is 1 MET
3.5 ml/kg/min
Name 8 abnormal ECG responses for people with CHD
- Appearance of bundle branch block at a critical HR
- Recurrent or multifocal PVCs during exercise and recovery
- Ventricular tachycardia
- Appearance of bradyarrhythmia’s, tachyarrhythmias
- S–T segment depression/elevation of >1.0mm 0.08 s after J point
- Exercise bradycardia
- Submaximal exercise tachycardia
- Increase in frequency or severity of any
On an ECG, 5mm (5 boxes) is how many sec?
0.2sec
On an ECG, 1mm (1 box) is how many sec?
0.04sec
When do PVC’s need to be treated?
When they occur at a rate of >6 min
Myocardial Ischemia
S–T segment depression/elevation of >1.0 mm 0.08 s after J point
What should the FVC be within on multiple trials for it to be considered accurate?
+/- 150ml (ATS)
FVC
forced vital capacity
FEV 1s
forced expiratory volume in 1 s
FEV1/FVC
A measure of expiratory ability &
general resistance to expiration (%)
PEF
peak expiratory flow
LLN comparisons
compare test results with reference values
based on healthy subjects
Comparing shape of FVL
compare known disease or abnormal
physiological patterns
Exercise-Induced Bronchospasm (EIB)
A drop in FEV1 by 10% from pre-exercise value
indicates
Exercise Induced asthma
(EIA)
If ratio of FEV1 /FVC is reduced by 15% or
more
Anthropometry
Science that deals with
measurement of size, weight and proportion
of the body
Body Composition
Focuses on techniques to
measure body fat and lean body mass or fat
free mass
Height measured to nearest
0.5cm
Weight measured to nearest
0.1kg
BMI units
kg/m^2
BMI equation
Body mass (kg) / height^2(m)
Waist circumference health risk for men
> 102cm
Waist circumference health risk for women
> 88cm
Health risk waist/hip ratio in men
> 0.89
Health risk waist/hip ratio in women
> 0.78
General health risk waist/hip ratio
> 0.5
What compartment model is DEXA?
3 compartment: fat, bone, soft tissue
Skinfolds assessment
Compressed subcutaneous fat thickness via calipers
Underwater weighing
Fat mass, fat-free mass, total body volume via water displacement
Bioelectrical impedance analysis
Fat mass, fat-free mass, body water via imperceptible electric current thru body
