self reporting of PA issues

A
  • those that are not physically active under report this physically active levels
  • those that are so physically active will over report their physically active levels

so overall this isn’t very good

rural areas are ageing faster than urban areas. this is because young people are always leaving rural areas for uni and other opportunities. therefore in these rural areas we need to make sure we have the right accessibility for the elders.

Q

what are the four strategies for morbidity compression

A
  1. primordial prevention: prevention of risk factors from developing
  2. primary prevention: reduction of risk factor prevalence
  3. secondary prevention: prevention of disease progression
  4. tertiary prevention: reduction of morbid states that have already occurred

25
ageing associated changes in muscle tissue
fast type 2 fibres become slow type 1 fibres, so the imbalance becomes bigger. this is why they may struggle to stand up lipids between muscle fibres
26
at what age do you want to be at your peak muscle and bone mass
30
27
osteoporosis
decrease in he density of bone, decreasing strength and resulting in fragile bones. the bones become compressible like a sponge, which results in frequent fractures osteopenia is the diagnosis before you reach osteoporosis as your bones are a bit more dense
28
why is unhealthy increasing life expectancy an issue
large burden on our health care system
29
what is exercise prescription
is the type, intensity, duration and frequency of PA. it is a purposeful program that has been set, that is for PA and heath.
30
American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) FITT
frequency - how often intensity - how hard time - how long type - movement classification VT has now been added, volume and progression
31
how many strength training sessions should be added per week
2-3 sessions + flexibility
32
making exercise sustainable - 3 factors
- many people new to exercise don't not complete set programs - motivation is a temporary approach (belonging, decision, can they do it) - ensure expectations are met and build confidence
33
no 'you or 'why' in FITT
- it's not to everyones taste - PA in our lives needs to be brung in at a more sustainable pace, which is fun, something you chose to do, and emotionally fitting
34
physical literacy (personal circumstance)
- building the skills, knowledge and behaviours to lead active lives - holistic - focused on the individual
35
genetics and sport learning ability
- do genes pass on sporting ability (eg. barrett brothers) - DRD2 has been linked to differences in motor learning and cognitive abilities - study of 13,306 twins found the schools tests scores were 62% of heritability But high heritability does not mean environment is not important
36
do genes determined your fitness?
No, because fitness is also heavily linked to lifestyle and the environment
37
of VO2max what % in a study was shown to be heritable?
47%
38
we must tightly regulate our ______ environment to live, and what are the 5 things we need to regulate
internal - ATP - O2 - CO2 and pH - Blood pressure - Temperature
39
what are the main 2 things that allow you to regulate your internal environment
- PA - external environment
40
exercise is a uniquely diver and powerful ____.
stressor
41
PA is unmatched for its
wide range of adaptions the fitter you are the more you can adapt
42
environment can improve and those benefits
fitness, this can be beneficial for those how can't do exercise (eg. heat)
43
our built environment is chronically extreme as
almost devoid of all natural environment stressors and insufficient PA leading to increased morbidity and early mortality
44
in a environment you need to think about
- the nature of PA - the participants - what would be your counter strategies
45
human are highly adaptable to and moderately adaptable to but don't adapt to
heat hypoxia cold
46
human health link to inter-species
dependence
47
biophilia
focus on life and life-giving processes is innate
48
green-space and health
positive relationship between green space and self-reported health
49
more than ___ of nz don't meet PA guidelines
1/3
50
the greener the area ...
the more likely you are to meet PA guidelines and a reduce in CVD, obesity and hyper tension
51
those that are least active use - those that are active use -
use open non-sport specific facilities sport sport facilities
52
Dunedin Secondary Schools PA Study
they PA if - maintain of open access spaces - social aspects independently roam - having a bike - living close to facilities - with friends
53
PA Overtime and what has changed
later old in lives you had to do PA to get to food or places now PA is engineered out of most life aspects - we have designed cities for cars
54
what are some good things in urban areas that influence PA
- close proximity of things - public transport - number of parks available
55
difference in PA between those living in most and least PA friendly neighbourhoods
68-89minutes
56
What do these 3 things stand for Atua Matua Atua Matua
- Maori environmental knowledge - Tribal interpretations of environment - Biodiversity index
57
If you don’t start now to be active …
Excuses will come
58
Why do we say Tenakoton 3 times
Physicality Mentality Spiritually To address all of these
59
Enviro physiology
People are going to reflect their environment whether they realise it or not
60
Atua Matua focus
On the environment before the person
61
Atua mean Matua means
Body of knowledge obtained from the environment that we can use for wellbeing
62
5 levels of the lecture's maori health guide
matuaranga maori - enviro knowldege whakapapa - tribal connection to enviro huahuata - enviro learning whakatinanatanga - interaction with enviro nga tohu - enviro signs
63
nga auta - environmental knowledge
we use three environment for environment knowledge those connected to - water - land - stars
64
Maori health isn’t an agent for
change for indigenous people
65
Why?
Pursue knowledge around the environment - incident outcome of health
66
Nga tohu
Five things we look for to read environmental signs Know the Maori of this 1. Weather patterns 2. Manu - track birds to see what they are doing and tell us what weather is gonna come 3. Birds 4. Trees 5. Insects - track them to see weather for next few days 6. Fish - there movement tell use seasonal They made new rams form based on these factors
67
sustainable exercise should be
- fun, social - emotionally fulfilling - something we chose to do
68
why do some athletes respond better to the same trainings then others
ACE gene ACTN3 gene
69
VO2 max is upto what % heritable
47%

maori environmental knowledge
71
matua
connection to the enviroment
72
Atua Matua
gathering ancient, indigenous knowledge and repurposing it for use today
73
what are the five pillars of atua matua
environmental knowledge - matauranga maori localised environmental connections - whakapap communicating environmental knowledge - huahuatau activities to mobilize atua matua thinking - whakatinanatanga environmental signs as a decision making a functions - nga tohu
