(183 cards)
considerations for hypertensive
avoid heavy lifting and vasalva breathe normal not overgrip or clench fists modify tempo to avoid extended iso and conc actions no prone - stand and progress slow
resistance improves bone mineral density no more than
5%
After 12 weeks, pregnant women should avoid
supine
Considerations for pregnant women
clothing should dissipate heat
start with phase 1 and 2 (2-3xwk, light, 12-15 reps, 1-3set)
ONLY PHASE 1 after 1st trimester, no supine/ prone twists after 1st low impact, no plyo in 2nd and 3rd trimesters
3-5x wk, 15-30 mins (stage 1 intensity, 2 with doc’s ok)
start with 5 mins/day - no SMR on vericose/swollen areas
can the growth of the fetus alter posture of pregnant woman?
yes
what is the best style of training for pregnant women
circuit training - reduce activity 3rd trimester
diabetics - training variable
resistance 2-3x wk (1-3 sets) 10-15 reps
what % of people over 20 are overweight
66 — 34% are obese
OBESE - variables
2-3x wk 1-3 sets 10-15 reps 60-80% max hr (or 40-70) cardio 5x wk - focus on cal expenditure (200-300/session)
OSTEOPOROSIS
sit to stand
avoid squats and leg press
no plyo
decrease in bone mass and density and space btw bones
3-5x wk, 40-70%, 20-30 mins
water exercise if severe
static and active stretch (smr may not be good)
cardio - stage 1 if tolerated; 2 w/doc’s ok
incline or standing abs (don’t want lots of spinal flexion)
ARHTRITIS
start w/5 mins; 3-5x wk, 30 mins Stage 1 (2-3 if doc’s ok)
60-80%; circuit over hiit; use pain as guide; start slow; have decreased balance; smr if tolerated; avoid heavy and hi-reps
Osteopenia
precursor to osteoporosis; resistance 75% 1rm, circuit fashion, 8-10 ex,, 1 set, 8-12 reps
degeneration of cartilage at joints
osteoarthritis
altered air flow thru lungs, bronch/emphysema
Chronic Obst. Lung Disease - adequate rest; pha is ideal
super low calorie diet must be monitored by
medical professionals
degenerative joint disease
rheumatoid arthritis - body attacks own tissues
avoid early morning exercise

how much carbs during long training?
30-60g every hour
completes/adds to daily intake
dietary supplements
recommended daily nutrient intake level
adequate intake - used when RDA can’t be determined
meet half the healthy people in an age group
EAR - Est. Average Daily Nutrient
highest average daily level likely to pose no risk
tolerable upper limit
