Chapter 8 Flashcards

-Major problem associated with tests that require performance to fatigue
point of fatigue is highly influenced by the client’s motivation
test that measures upper body endurance of pectoralis muscles, triceps and anterior deltoids
push up test
MOST
common test used to assess cardiorespiratory fitness, especially in clinical
settings.
Bruce submaximal treadmill test
% of Americans overweight
% of Americans obese, and what % is kids and teens
age/ gender most overweight
65%
35.7 % , 18%
women 60 years and older
- HR – last 15 seconds of each minute
- BP – last 45 seconds of each stage
- RPE – last 5 seconds of each minute
- S/S – personal observations and client observations
-Variable to assess during an exercise test
step tests fitness level is determined by
immediate post exercise recovery HR
*lower the exercising or recovery HR the higher level of fitness
6 reps = % 1-RM

-Clarify the following BEFORE an assessment: (8)
- Medication/supplements
- Musculoskeletal injuries
- Sickness
- Time of last meal
- Client provides RPE
- HR and BP
- Client must perform test as advised
- Test will cease if any significant discomfort
absolute strength / body weight (absolute strength = amount of weight lifted)
relative strength
Anthropometric measures (3)
Marker of obesity
(% body fat, BMI and waist circumference) or increased risk (WHR)
Every 1 inch increase in waist circumference (5)
BP increase 10%
blood cholesterol increase 8%
HDL decreases by 15%
triglycerides increase by 18%
metabolic syndrome increase 18%
% of clients estimated 1-RM should client use during 2nd warm up set
70-75%
8 reps = %1-RM

Lack of accuracy related to estimated maximal oxygen uptake – 2 variables:
- 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
-at near maximal intensities anaerobic glycolysis causes 2
- Increase in carbon dioxide
* Overcompensation in breathing frequency
