one half the economy for running at the same speed
90
achieve high yet uneconomical rates of movement, unattainable with conventional walking with a distinctive modified walking technique that
constrains the athlete to certain movement patterns regardless of walking speed
91
independent of fitness it becomes more economical to
discontinue walking and begin running at speeds above about 8km.h
92
exercise oxygen consumption equation | VO2 =
resting component (3.5mLO2.kg.min) + horizontal component times (speed x oxygen consumption of horizontal movement) + vertical component times (percentage grade x speed x oxygen consumption of verticle movement)
93
what is the horizontal and verticle components of walking and of running
walking = horizontal = 0.1 verticle = 1.8 running = horizontal = 0.2 verticle = 0.9
94
the total energy requirement for running a given distance is about
the same regardless of speed at reasonable intensities for example running a mile at 10mph requires 2x the energy per minute as running 5mph but at 10mph completing the mile takes 6 minutes while at 5 mph it takes 2x as long so the net energy expenditure to run the mile remains about the same
95
equivalent energy expenditure per mile occur for horizontal running and at grades from
-45%+15%
96
during horizontal running the net energy expenditure per Kg of body mass per km traveled averages
1 kCal
97
the energy expenditure per mile increases proportionately with
body mass supports the role of weight bearing exercise as additional caloric stressor for overweight persons who should increase daily energy expenditure for weight loss
98

104
children are less economical runners than adults and they require ___% more oxygen per unit body mass to run at a particular speed
20-30%
105
adult models to predict energy expenditure during weight bearing locomotion fails to account for
the increased energy expenditures in children and adolescents
106
the increased energy expenditure is attributed to a larger ratio of
surface area to body mass, greater stride frequencies, and shorter stride lengths and to differences in anthropometric variables and body mechanics that reduce movement economy
107
effect of air resistance on energy expenditure of running varies with
air density runners projected surface area square of running velocity
108
depending on speed, overcoming air resistance requires
3-9% of the total energy expenditure of running in calm air
109
the energy expenditure of cutting through a headwind exceeds the
reduced oxygen consumption with an equivalent wind velocity at ones back
110
clothing modification or trimming ones hair improves
aerodynamics and reduces the effects of air resistance up to 6%
111
wind velocity has less effect on energy expenditure at
higher altitudes than at sea level because of the lower air density at higher elevations

123
what are ways to reduce drag force when swimming

they have higher body fat percentage
127
women/men??? achieve higher swimming velocities than women/men??? at the same energy expenditure
women men
128

legs and arms to float relatively high in water making them more streamlined
129
enhanced floatation and the females smaller body size does what
reduces drag and contributes to the gender difference in swimming economy

fick
161
what is the principle of the fick equation
if you know the average difference between oxygen content of arterial and venous blood (a-vo2 difference) and how much oxygen was utilized by that working muscle (Vo2) then the only thing not known is how much blood was delivered to the working muscle to supply that amount of oxygen
162
aerobic energy determinants of endurance performance are

163
VO2max is a fundamental measure of ______ because it provides important information about the capacity of the ___ energy system
physiologic functional capacity for exercise long term energy system
164
attaining a high VO2max requires integration of high levels of
pulmonary cardiovascular and neuromuscular function
165
vo2max is defined as
the maximal oxygen consumption achieved with increasing exercise intensity. a leveling off of the oxygen consumption with increasing exercise intensity is required to identify the VO2max
166
what is the secondary criteria to identify VO2max and what is the primary criteria
a leveling off of the oxygen consumption with increasing exercise intensity is the primary criteria attainment of the age predicted maximum heart rate or a respiratory exchange ration > 1.15
167
what is VO2 peak
highest value of oxygen consumption measured during a graded exercise test. this is the correct term to use when levelling off of the oxygen consumption with increasing exercise intensity is not observed
168
maximal oxygen consumption tests usually include
treadmill running or walking bench stepping and stationary cycling, others include swimming swim bench ergometry in line skating roller skiing simulated arm leg climbing rowing ice skating arm crank and wheelchair exercise
169
how long are maximal oxygen consumption tests
can be a single 3-5 minute supramaximal effort or progressive increments in effort
170
subject terminates the test because they may not be influenced by motivational factors that do not reflect physiologic train, bringing the subject to vo2max or vo2peak often requires
considerable urging and prodding
171
types of maximal oxygen consumption test protocols are
continuous= progressively increasing exercise increments without recovery or rest intervals provides a practical test of aerobic capacity for most healthy individuals total time for the test should be 8-10 mins discontinuous= progressively increasing exercise increments interspersed with recovery intervals total time for the test averages 65 mins both yield similar VO2max

reduce
176
exercise training can prevent what
a decline or at least slow the progression of the aging induced decline in VO2
177
submaximal exercise testing to predict vo2max from walking/running or heart rate during or immediately post exercise is important because direct measurements
require an extensive laboratory specialized equipment considerable subject effort and motivation and could be risky to adults who do not have proper medical clearance and supervision
178
all predictions of submaximal test to predict aerobic capacity have a standard error of estimate (SEE) that states
larger error equals a less useful predicted score without knowing the magnitude of the SEE the usefulness of a predicted score is unknown
179
aerobic capacity prediction tests endurance runs assumes
a persons ability to maintain a high stead-rate oxygen consumption largely determines the distance run over at least 5 mins duration

vo2max predictions based on running performance should be viewed with caution:
a consistent level of motivation and effective pacing is critical with inexperienced subjects body mass and fatness running economy and % of aerobic capacity sustained without blood lactate buildup all contribute to successful running
181
SEE averages about ___% of the predicted value
8-10%
182
maximum 1-mile run or walk times serve only limited use for vo2max prediction in growing children because
the age-related exercise performance improvements in youth relate poorly to changes in aerobic capacity
183
the largest contributions to test scores improvement in children as they grow old result from
increased percentage of VO2max sustained during the exercise and improved running economy both factors contribute substantially to faster times independent of any improvement in vo2max
184
there is a __ relationship between HR and oxygen consumption (VO2) during increasing intensities of light to relatively intense aerobic exercise
linear
185
the slope of the line to describe the HR-Vo2 relationship reflects the
adequacy of cardiovascular response and aerobic fitness capacity
186
the VO2 max is estimated by drawing a ____ through several submaximal points that relate heart rate and oxygen consumption the HR-Vo2 line is then extended to an assumed maximum heart rate for the subjects age
a best fit straight line
187
assumptions that affect the accuracy of the VO2 max prediction from submaximal exercise heart rate is
linearity of heart rate-oxygen consumption relationship similar maximum heart rates for all subjects assumed constant economy and mechanical efficiency during exercise day to day heart rate variation
188
vo2 max predicted from submaximal heart rate generally falls within ___% of the persons actual VO2max
10-20%
189
SEE equals
+- 3.44mL O2 min
190
data to predict VO2max from nonexercised data is
sex female = 0 male = 1 body mas index physical rating- point vaulue of 0-10 represents physical activity for previous 6 months perceived functional ability - sum of point values for current level of perceived functional ability

VO2max=
44.895+(7.042xsex)-(0.823xBMI) + (0.738xPFA) + (0.688xPA-R)
