Lecture Exercise Prescription Flashcards
what 3 basic principles should be kept in mind to take optimal advantage of the said principle? (specific adaptation to imposed demand)
what are the 3 adaptations to exercise that can be targeted with exercise?
1) neurological adaptations
2) metabolic adaptations
3) morphological adaptations
describe neurological adaptations
describe metabolic adaptations
based primarily in changes to the metabolic processes that regulate the functioning of the cardiorespiratory system and of skeletal muscle
describe morphological adaptations
describe neuromotor exercise guidelines (6 principles)
1) frequent, structured training (typically low intensity, more usually better, min 2 days/week of 20-30 minutes/day)
2) variation (may have poorer performance during session, but better long-term skill retention)
3) mental imagery/cross education (not to be used as substitutes for actual task - ME is visualizing, CE is performing with other side)
4) distribution of training - should be based on capability and availability of patient (massed not ncessarily better than distributed)
5) continuous and discrete movements (movements that can be briken down can be practiced this way)
6) augmented feedback (coming from sources other than the patient - verbal, modeling/demonstration, manual guidance)
effects of a sedentary lifestyle
mechanism of adaptation for neuromotor exercise
neurological > morphological and metabolic
define balance, static balance, and dynamic balance
describe the requisites for balance
balance specific training guidelines
what are some balance specific training techniques?
- perturb COM (normal sway - ie just standing is enough, external perturbations -therapist push, internal perturbations - movement against resistance, reaching out of BOS)
- modify BOS (decrease external support, feet together etc)
- modify sensory feedback (vision, proprioception, vestibular - hard to modfy, but some VOR)
what is better - balance training and walking or just balance training?
- just balance training according to a study - likely due to relatively less balance-specific trianing
- evidence wrt resistance training in isolation is inconsistant
what are the areobic training guidelines (age, fitness level etc)
- the same guidelines for everyone!!
- should be in addition to ADLS, in bouts of at least 10 minutes, using large muscle groups
describe aerobic training maintenence
Stopping training
–2 weeks - significant ↓ in aerobic fitness
–4-12 weeks – loss of 50% of initial ↑ in V·O2max
–2.5 to 8 months – return to pre-training levels
–N.B. Following years of continuous training, benefits are kept for longer periods of detraining
Reduced training volume
–Up to 15 weeks if intensity is maintained (even with frequency and duration reduced by up to 2/3)
- V·O2max will ↓ if intensity is reduced by 1/3 or 2/3, even with frequency and duration constant
measures of intensity for cardiorespiratory exercise
1) metabolic equivalent task (MET): rate of energy consumtion relative to fixed O2 intake, 1 MET = 3.5 mL O2/kg/min
2) % of maximum oxygen uptake reserve (%VO2R): difference btw VO2 max and O2 uptake at rest
3) percentage HR reserve: diff btw max HR and HR at rest
4) ratio of perceived exertion (RPE): Borg scale (6-20, intended to mirror heart rate of middle aged man), OMNI scale (1-10) - both closely correlated
describe the borg and omni scale of exertions
describe FITT for cardiorespiratory exercise
Frequency: Moderate intensity (≥5 d/wk), High intensity (3-5 d/wk)
Intensity: deconditioned (Borg:9, omni:4, 55-65%max hr), other individuals (borg:12, omni:5, 55-65% max hr), to improve fitness (borg: 12-17, omni 5-8, 40-90%max hr)
Time: Moderate intensity (≥30 min), Higher intensity (≥20 min)
Type: must use large muscle group, sythmic (aerobic) in nature, can be maintained for at least 10 mins
Volume:
for novice/intermediate = Moderate intensity; 30-60 min/day; 5 days/wk, Vigorous intensity; 20-60 min/day; 3 days/wk, combination of above (≥500-1000 MET·min/wk)
f_or deconditioned_ = 3-5 days/week, light to moderarte, up to 20 mins/day
recomended aerobic training for hypertension
aerobic training recomendations for osteoarthritis
Increased physical activity Does not exacerbate joint symptoms and Confers significant benefits, including pain relief
aerobic trianing for chronic pain patients
A comprehensive physical activity program, including aerobic exercise, should be used for all patients
- recomendation as for healthy adults
recomended aerobic training for bone health
Volume: as for otherwise healthy adults
Mode: weight-bearing endurance activities and activities that involve jumping
maintaining effect for resistance training
resistance trianing for hypertension
Resistance training reduces BP–Follow ACSM guidelines
