Week 12 Lecture Flashcards
Name 5 benefits of exercise for those with T2DM
- Improved glycaemic control
- Improved body composition
- Increased insulin sensitivity
- Decreased CV risk
- Increased physical functioning
When aiming to minimise insulin resistance in Diabetes, what affect does duration have?
Longer = better
How many minutes a week should T2DM patients aim to accumulate and how many days should it be spread over ?
What intensity ?
210 minutes
Over atleast 3 days
Moderate (less minutes if vigorous)
Name 5 risks associated with obesity and exercise
- Heat intolerance
- Breathlessness
- Movement restriction
- Musculoskeletal injuries
- Local muscular weakness
Exercise prescription for T2DM: important advice regarding frequency
- no more than 2 consecutive days without exercise
List 3 benefits of exercise for those with T1DM
- decreased insulin requirements
- CV fitness
- Psychological well-being
What is central or android type obesity
Fat deposition in abdominal area
What is gynoid-type obesity
“Pear shaped”
More peripheral adiposity
What type of obesity has increased health risk
Android-type
List general benefits to resistance training in obesity
- reduces CAD risk
- improves glycemic control
- increases resting metabolic rate
What disease specifically affects O2 consumption and why
PVD
Progressive deconditioning due to functional impairments
How is lactate affected in COPD
Increased accumulation at lower work rates
What disease has a symptom that often limits the exercise and what is that symptom ?
COPD
Dyspnea
How should aerobic capacity be assessed in COPD
Cycle ergometer
When conducting an aerobic test using a cycle ergometer for COPD patients, what measures should be used
- 12 lead ECG
- BP
- RPE
- Dyspnea scale
- lactate levels
