True or False?
Chair stand is part of the senior fitness testing and it aims to measure upper body muscular strength
False
True or False?

True
True or False?
For the same muscle group in resistance Ex, the break duration should be maximally 24 hours
False
Male, 40-year-old, HRrest = 60 beats/min, the desired aerobic Ex intensity is moderate.
- Calculate his HRmax and HRR.
- Then use HRR formula to calculate his moderate-intensity (40%-60%) target HR range
HR max: 220-40= 180 b/m
HRr: 180-60 = 120 b/m
Formula: (HRr X % intensity desired) + HRrest
120.40+60=108
120.60+60=132

True or False?
Most diabetes patients have Type 1 (> 90% of all cases) followed by Type 2

Several risk factors, such as physical inactivity, smoking, and too much salt intake, may play a role and lead to hypertension

False
True or False?
During exercise, hypertension patient’s systolic blood pressure remains unchanged
False
True or False?
“Moderate intensity, aerobic exercise (i.e., 40-60% VO2R; RPE 11-13 on a 6-20 scale) supplemented by resistance exercise at 60-80% 1-RM” is recommended for individuals with hypertension
True
True or False?

False
True or False?
The criteria to define diabetes: Fasting glucose > 125 mg/dL, or Two-hour glucose > 200 mg/dL
True
True or False?
The criteria to define high blood pressure: Systolic BP ≥ 130 mmHg or Diastolic BP ≥ 80 mmHg
True
True or False?
When blood pressure is too high, artery wall muscles will respond by pushing out and the vessel is dilated
False

False
True or False?
Individuals with overweight and obese should accumulate the recommended amount of physical activity in multiple daily bouts. The maximum duration of each bout is 10 mins
False
True or False?
In Type 1 diabetes, the body does not use insulin properly, cells become resistant to insulin causing sugar remain in the blood

The following are the possible causes of diabetes, except for:
a) Body can’t make enough insulin
b) Body does not produce insulin
c) Smoking and alcohol abuse
d) Can’t use its own insulin
c) Smoking and alcohol abuse
Please explain the “negative cycle” of the high blood pressure
If BP is too high, artery wall muscles will respond by pushing back harder
Artery walls get thicker
Less space for blood flow
Then makes BP even higher
