Cardiorespiratory fitness

35
Q

Exercise HR is a strong indicator of how a client’s cardiorespiratory system is ______?

36
Q

What are the two most common sites used to record a pulse?

A

the radial and carotid arteries

37
Q

What is the purpose of heart rate training zone 1?

A

build aerobic base and aids in recovery

38
Q

What is the purpose of heart rate training zone 2?

A

Increase aerobic and anaerobic endurance

39
Q

What is the purpose of heart rate training zone 3?

A

Builds high-end work capacity

40
Q

Straight Percentage Method to calculate THR.

A

First find the maximal heart rate by subtracting the client’s age from 220 (220-age). Then once The HR max is determined multiply it by the appropriate intensityat which the client should work while performing cardiorespiratory exercise.

Q

What is zone Three’s intensity rate?

A

86% -95%

The bottom number of blood pressure that represents the pressure within the arterial system when the heart is resting and filling with blood?

A

Diastolic

47
Q

What is an acceptable systolic blood pressure measurement?
