Exam2 Flashcards
Par-Q
Screens individuals medical history
Doesn’t cover ALL reasons for not testing
Cardio Respiratory Fitness (CRF)
Heart, lungs, and vascular systems ability to provide oxygen rich blood to muscles
Flexibility
Range of motion Muscles, tendons, and ligaments play a part in flexibility of a joint Dynamic Static Ballistic
Muscular strength
Capacity to exert max contraction force against a load
Fast twitch
Lots of energy needed
Muscular endurance
Ability of a muscle to perform extended contractions over a period of time with force Slow twitch Builds bones Increases immunity Increases metabolic rate Blocks fatigue
Body composition
Assessments are tools used to identify % of fat and non fat tissue in the body
Cardio Respiratory fitness evaluations
Walk test 1.5 mike run 12 minutes run Treadmill test Cycle test 3 min step test
Body composition tests
Hydrostatic weighing Air displacement plethysmography Bioelectrical impedence analysis Skin fold Abdominal circumference Body mass index
Goals must be
Challenging
Realistic
Re-assessment intervals
Cardio&strength&endurance: 8-10

Body comp: 12-16
Exercise training principles
Overload
Specificity
Progression
Variables that influence overload
Intensity : 40-85% VO2max
Duration : 10-60 minutes
Frequency : 3-5 days per week
Cardiovascular development FP
30 minutes 40-60% V02max 5days per week or 20-25minutes 65-85% V02max 3 days per week
Weight loss FP
Progress to 300 minutes per week 40-60% V02max or 150 minutes per week 65-85% V02max
Heart Rate Reserve Method (HRR)
207-(age x .7)= Max HR
Max HR - RHR= HRR
HRR x .40 + RHR= low Target HR
HRR x .85 + RHR= high Target HR
Dynamic stretching
Peeps body for exercise
10-20 reps
Static stretching
Must have warmed up muscles prior
Stretch tight areas
15-60 secs
1-4 times
