Physical Activity is any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscle
Exercise is a type of physical activity that is planned, structured, and repetitive body movements with intention to improve
Physical fitness is a set of attributes or characteristics individuals have, achieve, that relate to their ability to perform PA and ADLs
Cardiorespiratory Endurance is the ability of circulatory/respiratory system to supply O2 during sustained physical activity
Body Composition is the relative amounts of fat, muscle, bone, organs and body parts
Muscular strength is the ability of muscle to exert force
Muscular endurance is the ability of the muscle to continue to perform without fatigue
Flexibility is the range of motion available at a joint
Agility is the ability to change position of body in space with speed and accuracy
Coordination is the ability to use the senses
Balance is the maintenance of equilibrium while stationary or moving
Power is the ability at which one can perform work
Reaction time is the time between stimulus and beginning of reaction
Speed is the ability to perform a movement within a short period of time
31% of adults are globally inactive
50% adults in US meet aerobic guidelines
20% meet both aerobic and strength guidelines
32% of children are obese
Sedentary behavior characterized by prolonged sitting can cause glucose and insulin problems, lipid metabolism, and vascular function problems
Sedentary behavior can cause diabetes, heart disease, cancer, CVD
High levels of moder-to-vigorous PA can eliminate mortality risk that is associated with sedentary behavior
Risks of physical activity include musculoskeletal injury, adverse cardiac event, sudden cardiac death
Adults should move more sit less
Adults need 150-300 minutes of moderate intensity exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous per week
Adults should engage in 300 minutes of MPA per week
Adults should do muscle strengthening activities two days or more per week
Health Benefits of Improving muscular fitness include: Lower risk of all-cause mortality, fewer CVD events, lower risk of developing physical function limitations and lower risk of nonfatal disease
Prevention of Exercise-related cardiac events include: Workers should know pathologic conditions associated, Preparticipation screenings, and Trained in managing cardiac emergencies
Benefits of PA: Improved cardio and respiratory functions, Reduction in CVD risk factors, and Decreased morbidity and mortality
The order for Preexercise Evaluation is Informed consent, exercise preparticipation health-screening, health history, and cardiovascular risk factor analysis
Instructions for Preexercise Evaluation is No food, alcohol, caffeine, Rested, Clothing that allows for movement, Have someone accompanying them, bring actual medication with dosage, and Be hydrated
informed consent purpose is to make sure the participant knows the purpose and risk associated with screening, assessment, and exercise programs
Informed consent form includes Purpose, risks, benefits, questions, confidentiality, freedom of consent, and signatures
Health Screening identify those at risk for adverse exercise-related CV events, who should receive medical clearance, and clinically significant diseases
CVD Risks include: Female older than 55 and males older than 45, family history, cigarette smoking, dyslipidemia, sedentary life, obesity, hypertension, and prediabetes
Signs or symptoms of CVD is chest pain, shortness of breathe, syncope, and heart murmur
The PARQ+ is developed to reduce barriers for exercise and reduces false positive screenings
Blood Pressure increase of 20 SBP or 10 DBP increase risk factors and requires lifestyle modifications
Common Source of Error for taking BP is cuff size, improper stethoscope placement, background noise, and allowing patient to hold handrails
Signs/ symptoms of CV, metabolic, and renal disease include: Syncope, Shortness of breath, and Pain or discomfort
Blood Pressure is Normal <120 Elevated is 120-129, Stage 1 hypertension 130-139, and Stage 2 hypertension >140
Non-HDL-C normal is <130
LDL-C normal is <100
HDL-C normal is<40 men and <50 women
Triglycerides normal is <150
Why do all of the testing? baseline data, provide data for individualized program, collect follow-up data, and motivate individuals
For a fitness test measurements are required first: HR, BP, body comp, height, and weight
Anthropometric is the science of body form. Methods include BMI and circumferences
Android obesity means more fat on trunk by using hip to waist measurements
