Q

Lack of accuracy related to estimated maximal oxygen uptake – 2 variables:

A
  • Calculations based on 220 – age equation. + or – 12bpm
  • Based on assumption everyone expends same amt of energy AND uses the same amt of oxygen…submaximal will underestimate or overestimate the true maximum for the client

123
Q

To figure weight at certain body fat percentage:

A

Example weighs 180 lb at 20% BF
What will weight be at 15% BF

Figure lean mass first

100% - Current BF% 20 = 80%

180lbs x .80 = 144 LBM

100% - 15% = 85%

144/ 0.85 = 169 lbs

-Indicators for a coronary event: (4)

A
  • A decrease –or a significant increase—in blood pressure with exercise
  • Inadequate HR response to exercise – increase less than 80% OR less than 62% for client on beta blocker
  • Exercise duration – longer client can tolerate the test =less likely to die of CAD
