Q

Maximal Oxygen Uptake Rate

A

maximal rate at which oxygen can be consumed per minute (VO2 max)
VO2max is estimated on the basis of the work rate which yields a steady-state heart rate of approximately 70% of age-predicted maximal heart rate (PHRmax = 220 - Age in years.)

Q

How to perform underwater weighing

A

Measure body weight in swimsuit to the nearest .25 pound
Apply nose clip & have subject sit, leaning in front of spirometer
Subject takes several deep breaths w/ mouthpiece from spirometer on, then with lungs filled maximally. Have them blow max air into spirometer in one sharp expiration, then remove mouthpiece (repeat 3 times total & measure air temperature in last trial)
Have subject enter tank and sit in seat, remove any air trapped in swimsuit
Have subject tuck head underwater, expel all air in lungs, and slowly count to 10 until subject can resurface (repeat 6-10 times)
Record weight each time & stabilize scale
Further trials may need to be done if weights from multiple trials are drastically different ( greater than 0.15 kg different)

29
Q

Archimedes Principle & how it relates to underwater weighing

A

Archimedes Principle - an object immersed in a fluid loses an amount of weight equivalent to the weight of the fluid which is displaced.
The difference between “dry” and underwater weights directly reflect the volume of water displaced, which is equal to an individual’s body volume
Allows us to accurately determine body volume
An object in water is buoyed up by force equal to volume of water displaced
Vol. of water displaced = weight lost by object immersed in water
Specific gravity = weight of object/weight of an equal vol. Of water)
Spec. gravity = weight of object in air / weight of an equal vol. Of water
Spec. gravity = weight of object in air / loss of weight in water (or weight in air - weight in water)

30

31
Q

A

the ability to utilize oxygen involving internal and external respiration.
tidal volume: volume inspired or expired per breath (increase during exercise)
Inspired respiratory volume: maximal volume inspired from end-inspiration (decrease during exercise)

32
Q

individual’s body structure

A

Fat- represents lipid constituents found in adipose tissue
Lean body- represents tissue in muscle, bone, and “vital organs”

35
Q

What are the causes of regulatory obesity

A

ack of daily physical activity, excess caloric consumption, association of food with emotional responses, social and cultural pressures to metabolic disorders

36
Q

Various exercise & weight control concepts

A

caloric deficit 1,000kcal/day = fat loss of 2 lbs/week, decrease intake 700kcal/day, increase expenditure 300kcal/day

37
Q

Exercise benefits

A

Increased cumulative caloric expenditure, counteracts potential decrease in basal metabolic typically associated with aging by maintaining (endurance exercise) or increases (strength training) lean body weight, prevents loss of lean body weight associated with caloric restriction, compliments behavior modification and establishment of a more healthful lifestyle

38

*Uses (how to find)- circumferences; average the left and right extremity

51
Q

Reference weight measures and uses

A
  • Measures- the needed changes in both fat weight and lean body weight to adjust overall body weight to the reference weight goal (normalities for weight based on height); changing BMI to norm
    * Uses- diameters along with height; add the left and right extremity diameters
52

  3. Ectomorphy
    • Measures- rating of LINEARITY
    • Uses- HEIGHT AND BODY WEIGHT (Body Mass Index)
53
Q

Primary body build characteristics (only use top 2 characteristics used when describing people)

Ectomorphic= lean and long; difficult to build muscle
Endomorphic= big, high body fat, pear-shaped with a high tendency to store body fat
Mesomorphic= muscular and well-built with a high metabolism and responsive muscle cells
54
Q

A

are indicated by WRIST, KNEE, and ANKLE proportions.

- underwightness= > 105 (eating disorder, rest of body small)
    - normal proportionality: 95-105
55
Q

Excessive body fat distribution

A

is typically reflected by large proportions in the ABDOMEN and also may be apparent in large CHEST, HIPS, and THIGH values (however the CHEST and THIGH may also be of high proportions when due to obvious muscularity in some males)
-determines= amount of fat

56
Q

Pronounced muscular development

A

is reflected by large proportions in the FOREARM, FLEXED ARM, SHOULDER, and CALF values (however, obese females may also tend to show a large proportion value in the FLEXED ARM due to fat accumulation)

- determines= amount of muscle
- greater muscle development= above 105
- lesser muscle development= below 95
