Midterm New Flashcards
Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Questionnaire (PASB-Q)
The PASB-Q for adults or youth provides an approximation of clients’ physical activity and sedentary behaviour for a typical week.
FANTASTIC Lifestyle Checklist
The FANTASTIC Lifestyle Checklist helps your client reflect on the various components of a healthy lifestyle.
Stages of Change Questionnaire (SOC-Q)
The Stages of Change Questionnaire can be helpful in identifying a client’s stage of motivational readiness for change, which will inform the qualified exercise professional in deciding appropriate strategies for enhancing the commitment to change.
General Procedures for all Aerobic Assessments
Explain purpose and general procedure of aerobic assessment protocol to client
Familiarize client to ergometer
Calculate 85%Hrmax (and 50-70%HRmax for the Treadmill Test)
Warm-up (if applicable)
Monitor and record HR every minute
Monitor RPE every stage during exercise
Monitor client symptoms for intolerance to exercise throughout
Terminate test and immediately move to post-exercise recovery protocol
Aerobic test will end;
- Reaches the ceiling heart rate (85% of 220-age)
- Asks to stop
- Shows signs of physiological distress (e.g., begins to stagger, complain of dizziness, extreme leg pain, nausea, chest pain, or show facial pallor).
- Cannot maintain the cadence (for the mCAFT and Cycle Ergometer tests)
- Completes Stage 8 (for the mCAFT)
Post-Exercise Recovery Procedures
- Active recovery for 3 minutes immediately following termination of aerobic protocol
• Duration/intensity can be selected by client but should be <1st workload
• Record HR every 1 min
• If client wants more active recovery, then extend by 2 minutes - After active recovery, client can be seated for passive recovery
• Continue to record HR every 1 min
• Measure BP at 1 and 3 minutes of passive recovery - At 3 min of passive recovery, HR & BP should be below screening cutoffs
• If both HR & BP are below screening cutoffs, then proceed to MSK tests
• If HR or BP still above screening cutoffs, then give another 2 min rest, then re-measure HR
& BP.
Screening cutoffs
SBP <160 mmHg
DBP <90 mmHg
HR <99 bpm
mCAFT Formula
VO2 = [17.2+(1.29 x 02cost) – (0.09 x wt. in kg) – (0.18 x age in years)]
Treadmill Walking Test Formula
Estimated VO2max (ml⋅kg-1⋅min-1) =
- 1 + (21.8 x speed mph) – (0.327 x SSHR bpm) – (0.263 x speed mph x age) +
(0. 00504 x SSHR bpm x age) + (5.98 for males)
Cycle Ergometer Test Formulas
SM, VO2 = [(Workload in Watts / Weight in kg) x 10.8] + 7.0
Slope (b) = (SM2-SM1) / (HR2 – HR1)
Estimated VO2max (ml⋅kg-1⋅min-1) = SM2 + [b x (HRmax - HR2)]
- SM1=Sub-maximal VO2 at 2nd last workload
- SM2= Sub-maximal VO2 at last workload
- HR1=Average of last 2 heartrates from the 2nd last workload
- HR2=Average of last 2 heartrates from the last workload
One Mile Walk Test Formula
EstimatedVO2max (ml⋅kg-1⋅min-1) =
132.853 – (0.0769 x weight in pounds) – (0.3877 x age in years) + (6.315 for males only) – (3.2649 x time) – (0.1565 x HR)
