What comes under health related physical fitness
Cardiorespiratory endurance
Muscular endurance
Muscular strength
Body composition
Flexibility
What is Physical Activity
Any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscles that result in a substantial increase in caloric requirements over resting energy expenditure
What is Exercise
Type of physical activity consisting of planned, structured, repetitive bodily movement done to improve and or maintain one or more components of physical fitness
What is physical fitness
A set of attributes individuals achieve that ability to perform physical activity
What is muscular endurance
ability of muscle to perform without fatigue
What is muscular strength
Ability of muscle to exert force
What are the skill related physical fitness components
Agility Balance Speed Reaction time Power Coordination
What are the key strong pieces of evidence for inverse dos response relationship between physical activity and health outcome
Cardiorespiratory health
Weight loss
Joint/muscular
What risk is there associated with exercise
Acute and transient increase in risk of sudden cardiac death
Myocardial infarction of individuals while performing vigerous intensity exercise with either diagnosed or occult CVD
What is the estimated figure for absolute risk of cardiac death during vigorous intensity physical activity in asymptomatic individuals
1 in 15000/18000 per year
In recent research it has been seen that adults are showing ______ compared to their younger counterparts
Increased rate of sudden cardiac death and acute MI
Prevention of exercise related cardiac events includes
Health care professional knowledge on the pathologic conditions associated with exercise related events
Physically active individuals should know the nature of cardiac prodromal symptoms and seek medical care if symptoms develop
High school and college athletes should undergo preparticipation screening
Athletes with known cardiac conditions/family history should be evaluated before competition
Health care facilities should make sure staff are trained in managing cardiac emergencies
Physically active individuals should modify their exercise program in response to their environment, activity level and exercise capacity
What are the ABSOLUTE contraindictions to exercise testing
Significant change in resting ECG
Unstable angina
Uncontrolled cardiac dysrhythmias
Symptomatic severe aortic stenosis
Uncontrolled symptomtic heart failure
Acute pulmonary embolus or pulmonary infarction
Acute myocarditis or pericarditis
Aneurysm
Acute systemic infection
What does asymptomatic individuals mean
Have no symptoms but may carry it
Significant changes in ECG can be because of
Ischemia
Recent MI
Acute cardiac event
