61
what are the methods of training in aerobic exercise period

- interval
- circuit

62
Most effective way to improve endurance; usually done 20-60 mins s exhausting the oxygen transport system
continuous training
63
energy requirement for continuous training
submaximal, sustained throughout training period
64
this improves strength and power more than endurance; ATP and O2 are replenished by aerobic system during relief; exercise is followed by either rest or work relief interval
interval training
65
series of exercise activities that is continuous and repeated several times; can improve both strength and endurance by stressing both aerobic and anaerobic systems
circuit training
66
training for pts who cannot handle full circuit training; interaction of anaerobic & aerobic production of ATP
circuit-interval training
67
This period prevents pooling of blood in extremities, fainting, and soreness
cool down period
68
what are the other effects of doing cool down period, aside from pooling blood, fainting, and soreness?
- enhancing recovery period c oxidation of metabolic waste & replacement of energy stores
- prevent myocardial ischemia, arrhythmia, or other complications
69
Tips to prevent injuries or adverse effects
- correct footwear & clothing
- avoid hard surfaces
- proper warm-up and stretching
- hydrate
70
how to document aerobic exercises
Type of aerobic exercise x < THR > x < duration of exercise> x < warm-up & cool down duration) x to
ex:
Treadmill walking x THR of 90 bpm x 30 mins x 10 mins warm-up & cool down x 2 days/wk for 5 wks to inc tolerance in walking for longer distances.
