- exercise specialist
develops and implements a tailored physical activity, fitness and lifestyle plan to apparently healthy individuals
CSEP- CPT (certified personal trainer)
performs assessments, prescribes conditioning exercise, exercise supervision, counselling and healthy lifestyle education in apparently healthy individuals and or populations with medical conditions, functional limitations or disabilities associated with muscoluskeletal, cardiopulmonary, metabolic, neuromuscular, and ageing condition

estimated cancer deaths in US are mostly from ?
lung and bronchus cancer
3 types of cancer therapies
surgery
radiations therapy
systemic therapies
what are the 10 prevention goals for cancer patients
- improve functional status
- improve action motion for nonrestrictive segments /joints
- prevent loss of flexibility by active and passive motion
- stimulate peripheral and central circulation
- increase ventilatory function
- prevent thrombosis through physical activity
- prevent loss of motor control and muscle strength and endurance
- reduce rate of bone loss
- slow loss of FFM and reduction of BMR
- monitor signs of increased fatigue weakness, lethargy, dyspnea, pallor, dizziness, claudication, or cramping
effects of 6 week physical activity rehabilitation program for cancer patients suffering sever fatigue
–> what were the results
- at steady state they had decreased HR and blood lactate levels
- decreased fatigue
what does exercise do in regards to cancer cells
helps get blood flow into tumour cells and keeps up the immune system
doing exercise right after chemo help suppress the cancer by ____ %
31
in mice, exercise reduced the growth of cancer cells by _____ % and the tumour of exercise mice were full of?
60-70%
- natural chemo cells
9 protective effects of regular physical activity on cancer occurrence
- lowers circulating levels of blood glucose and insulin
- increases anti-inflammatory cytokines
- increases corticosteroid hormones
- augments insulin receptor expression in cancer fighting T cells
- promotes interferon production
- stimulates glycogen synthesis
- enhances leukocyte function
- improves ascorbic acid function
- exerts beneficial effects on provirus or oncogene activation
cancer patients recieve a _____ ______ _____ to form their exercise prescription
–> procedures the same as for healthy individuals except greater attention to ?
- symptom- limited GXT
- sensations of fatigue
prescription for exercise for cancer patients includes ______-____, ______ and _________ PA
- symptom - limited
- progressive
- individualized
3 characteristics of PA for cancer
- ambulation of any kind ASAP
- intervals of low to moderate aerobic PA performed several times daily
- ROM and other exercise to improve muscular strength. augment FFM and improve mobility
5 consensus recommendations for physical activity for cancer survivors
(same as DHHS guidelines(
- 150 min/ week mod aerobic, 75 min vigorous
- strength training 2-3 x week
- avoid inactivity
- return to normal daily activities as soon as possible
- continue normal daily activities and exercise
