Q

what test is a common estimate of max aerobic capacity and why

A

measurement of exercise or post-exercise HR response to submax workload
- b/c positive linear relationship b/t HR and power output over wide range of intensities

Q

when do you stop the exercise test

A

at 85% of the HR max
- (0.85)(HR max)

OR
when you reach steady state

Q

An individual that is more trained will have a lower or higher HR at given VO2…and higher or lower O2 consumption right before reach max HR

A

lower HR and higher O2 consumption before reach max HR

Q

What is the Step Test Recovery HR used for

A

estimate cardiovascular fitness and VO2max w. recovery HR
- measure HR immediately after performing 3-minute stepping exercise
- indirectly correlated to VO2 max == lower recovery HR = higher VO2max

16
Q

What does SEE describe

A

how far off on average the predicted is from the actual value
- better predictions have a smaller SEE

17
Q

What are the 3 assumptions that contribute to the SEE

A
  1. Linearity of the HR-VO2 relationship
    • even though relationship b/t HR and VO2 is linear - slope is effected by emotion, hydration, oxygen drift, temperature, diet… – effect slope adversely
  2. Similar max HR based on age
    • standard deviation for average MAX HR of individuals that are same age is +/- 10 bpm
  3. Constant exercise economy
    • predicted VO2 max depend on oxygen cost of certain work rates
    • high variation in economy and factors such as cadence and test modality
18
Q

VO2 max predictions based on sub max HR have SEE of what

A

SEE of +/- 5ml/kg*min

19
Q

What is VO2 reserve (VO2R)

A

actual physiological rage of O2 consumption for an individual

20
Q

how do you find VO2R

A

difference between resting VO2 and VO2max

VO2R = VO2max-VO2rest

21
Q

What is Heart Rate Reserve (HRR)

A

HRR = HRmax - HRrest

22
Q

what do VO2reserve and HR reserve used to do

A

account for variability in fitness

your personal values

23
Q

How do you find target VO2R or target HRR

A

multiply desired exercise intensity by the reserve and add the resting value

target VO2R (L/min) = exercise intensity (%) * (VO2max - VO2rest) + VO2rest

target HRR (beat/min)= exercise intensity (%) * (HRmax - HRrest) + HRrest

24
Q

what is the equation to determine HRmax

A

208 - (0.7*age)

25
a MET is a unit to reflect what
reflect one's normalized resting metabolic rate (ie. resting oxygen consumption = 3.5 mL/kg*min
26
The non-exercise equation is based on what factors
regression equation based on: - age, sex, BMI, PA-R, and PFA
27
what are the two Sub-max HR regression equations tests
1. Extrapolating using age-predicted max HR 2. Queen's College Step Test
28
explain each step of the Extrapolating VO2 max based on submax HR
1. Measure HR @ at least 2 submax workloads (120bpm up to 70-85% predicted max HR) 2) draw line through the HR points and estrapolate to the predicted HR Max 3) draw another line down from that point to the x-axis and identify the VO2max
29
explain each step of the Queens College step test
- 4 step cadence, 3 minutes of stepping, 5 seconds after stepping measure HR for 15 seconds
30
1 SEE describes what % of estimates
68% --- from 0 +/- 34% in each direction
31
What are the recommendations for cardiorespiratory endurance exercise
mode: lg. muscle groups frequency: 3-5 days/week duration: 20-60 minutres intensity: moderate and/or vigorous exercise
32
what factors improve and maintain physical fitness and health
cardiorespiratory, resistance, flexibility, and neuromotor exercise training beyond activities of daily living
33
what do your METS need to be for engaging in moderate-intensity cardiorespiratory exercise training
> or equal to 500-1000 MET * min/week
