18
Q

Health Benefits of Physical Activity

A
  1. lowers risks of premature death and chronic cond.
  2. reduces depression, anxiety, abdominal obesity
  3. helps control weight
  4. improves sleep quality
  5. improves cognitive function
  6. maintains and improves bone density
  7. prevents falls
  8. increases functional health
19
Q

Coronary Heart Disease

A

Myocardial Ischemia

  • more prevalent for African Americans and Latino Americans than Whites
  • a resulting imbalance between coronary oxygen supply and demand
  • attributable to physical inactivity and sedentarism
  • favorably countered by high cardiorespiratory fitness level than by a physically active lifestyle
  • imbalance between O2 supply and demand
20
Q

CHD Risk Factors

A
  • Age
  • Family History
  • Hypercholesterolemia
  • Hypertension
  • Current cigarette smoking
  • Prediabetes
  • Obesity
  • Physical Inactivity
21
Q

Hypertension

A

High Blood Pressure

  • Major contributor to stroke and heart attack
  • SBP > 140 mmHg
  • DBP > 90 mmHg
  • on medication for blood pressure
22
Q

PreHypertension

A

SBP between 120 and 139 mmHg

DBP between 80 and 89 mmHg

23
Q

Type I (juvenile onset)

A
  • Insulin dependent
  • not associated with obesity
  • body doesn’t produce insulin
  • pancreas fails to produce insulin
  • under age of 30
  • not as common as type 2
  • exercise prescriptions should follow specific guidelines
24
Q

Type II (adult onset)

A
  • non-insulin dependent (NIDDM)
  • lack of sensitivity
  • often caused by obesity
  • poor lifestyle
  • often caused by obesity
  • poor lifestyle
  • encourage them to exercise
  • improves glucose metabolism
  • risk factors: age, family history, diet, above normal body weight and body fat
  • healthy lifestyle choices decrease risk
25
Q

BMI

A

Body Mass Index (kg/m2)
OVERWEIGHT: 25-29.9 k/m2
OBESE: BMI > 30 kg/m2

26
Q

Obesity shortens life expectancy and increases risk for the following

A
  • CHD
  • IRD (type 2)
  • Hypercholesterolemia
  • Hypertension
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Some cancers
27
Q

Causes of Obesity and Overweight

A
  • genetic source
  • environment (majority of evidence)

restricting caloric intake and increasing caloric expenditure are good ways to

  • control weight
  • decrease body fatness
  • normalize blood lipids and blood pressure
28
Q

Metabolic Syndrome

A

At least three of the following characteristics have metabolic syndrome

  • BP above 130/85mmHg (hypertension, almost)
  • FG level > 100 mg/dL (pre diabetes)
  • serum TAG > 150 mg/dL (triglyceride level)
  • HDL level ( 40”-men; 35” -women)
  • cluster of specific CVD risk factors
  • increase risk of CHD and IRD
  • prevalence highest for older (>60 yr) and obese people
29
Q

Wolff’s Law

A

your bones adapt to the stress imposed upon them

30
Q

Sign

A

something the clinician sees

31
Q

Symptom

A

something the client has or what they feel

32
Q

LDL-cholestrol

A

<100mg-dl-1

33
Q

HDL-cholestrol

A

> 40mg-dl-1

34
Q

Blood glucose

A

60-100 mg-dl-1

35
Q

Test Validity

A
  • asses accuracy of measurement
  • comparison against reference or criterion method
  • direct (reference) versus indirect (field) measures
  • validity coefficent is the correlation between criterion/reference score and predictor score
  • validity coefficent at least .80 is good.
36
Q

Test Reliability

A
  • asses repeatability of measurement
  • -looking for consistency and stability of scores
  • comparison of multiple measures
  • reliability affects validity
  • –poor reliability is poor validity
  • –good reliability is not always good validity
37
Q

Behavior Modification Theory

A

Clients are actively involved in the process

  • goal setting
  • strategies to attain goal(s)
  • contract
  • reassess, review, revise
  • helpful techniques: journaling, incentitves, celebrating the successes`
38
Q

Social Cognitive Theory

A

Based on clients self-efficacy and outcome expectation

  • How confident am I that I can do this
  • > 70% condifence score equals high efficacy
  • help your client recognize and overcome barriers
  • helpful techniques: skill mastery, modeling, positive reinforcement, education
39
Q

Readiness to Change Theory

A

change comes when client is intellectually and emotionally ready to change

five stages

  1. precontempation: not even thinking about it
  2. contemplation: thinking about it, intends to do it
  3. preparation: starting to do something,exercising
  4. action: been exercising <6 months
  5. maintenance: been exercising 6+ months
40
Q

Decision-Making Theory

A

if benefits > costs, then client is likely to exercise

position in stages of motivational change influences perceptions of benefits and costs

  • early stages: perceived costs outweigh benefits
  • later stages: perceived benefits outweigh costs
  • 16-item self-report tool available.
