Physical activity

any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscles that result in a substantial increase over resting energy expenditure

Physical fitness
ability to perform physical work using LG mm groups, challenges <3vascular sys
Maximum Oxygen Consumption (VO2 max)
Maximum amount of oxygen consumed per min with max effort (relative to body weight)....measure of the body's capacity to use oxygen

Endurance

Ability to work for prolonged periods of time and the ability to resist fatigue

Muscular endurance
ability of an isolated muscle group to perform repeated contractions over a period of time (indiv)
Cardiovascular endurance
ability to perform LG muscle dynamic exercise for long periods of time (systemic)
Aerobic exercise training (conditioning)
Improving the ability to use energy through exercise program. Depends on freq, intensity, time. Should have ^ mmular and <3vascular endurance. Energy expenditure should go down.

Specificity principle

the individual improves in the exercise task used for training and may not improve in other tasks

Adaptation
Changes in the body due to training stimulus; body adapts to performance it is used to doing

What does adaptation result in?

Increased efficiency of the cardiovascular system and active muscles

Stimulus threshold
a variable based on higher level of fitness the greater the intensity of exercise needed to elicit change
Myocardial oxygen consumption
measure of O2 consumed by the myocardial muscle; depends on demand; supplied by coronary BF

How much o2 does the heart extract during rest?

70-75% of oxygen

Myocardial ischemia & Exertional angina
Myocardial ischemia = not enough O2 for demand. Exertional angina is chest pain with exertion bc of decreased O2 to <3.

Deconditioning

the result of prolonged bed rest due to illness, chronic condition, sedentary lifestyle, age, etc

What are some deconditioning effects associated with bed rest?

1. decreased muscle mass


2. decreased strength


3. decreased cardiovascular function


4. decreased total blood volume


5. decreased plasma volume


6. decreased orthostatic tolerance


7. decreased exercise tolerance


8. decreased bone mineral density


9. decreased heart volume

ATP-PC system
No O2 needed Phosphocreatine/ATP already stored as fuel in mm cells
Short/quick bursts of activity (first 30 seconds -replenishes at rest)
Anaerobic glycolytic system
No O2 required
Glycogen is fuel source and makes lactic acid
Moderate intensity/short duration (30-90 sec)
Aerobic System
O2 is required
Glycogen, fats, proteins used as fuel Predominates after 2mins of exercise; long duration

Recruitment of motor units is dependent on what?

the rate of work

Slow-twitch fibers (type l)
Slow contractile response
Recruited for endurance
Low intensity exercise Burns fat efficiently
Fast-twitch fibers (type IIB)
Fast contractile response
Recruited for power and strengthening Lean mass
Intermediate fibers (type IIA)
Recruited for aerobic/anaerobic activity
Characteristics of both Type 1 and Type IIB
Variable depending on training

If an athlete runs a 100M dash, what energy system is he using?

ATP-PC system

If an athletes runs 1.5miles in 1.5 minutes, what energy system is he using?

Anaerobic glycolytic system

If an athlete runs a marathon, what energy system is he using?

Aerobic system

How is energy expended computed?

From the amount of O2 consumed

MET

Metabolic equivalent

MET definition
the oxygen consumed per kilogram of body weight per min (about 3.5mL/kg per min)
To be considered "light work," the number of METs equals
1.6-3.9 METS, ranges walking, ADLs, etc.
To be considered "heavy work," the number of METs equals
6.0-7.9 METs; ranges running, anything that requires effort

Rate of Perceived Exertion is also called?

The Borg scale

What is the purpose of the Rate of Perceived Exertion?
It reflects physical exertion and mental perception; 6=rest 20=max exertion; gives insight on progression
When is using the Rate of Perceived Exertion beneficial?
HR is difficult to measure
Meds alter norm HR
Condition alters norm HR *Watch for warning signs*

What is stress testing?

Testing done to monitor heart function

What is the purpose of stress testing?
1. Diagnosis of heart disease
2. Selects treatment for heart disease
2. Clears patient for strenuous work

What equipment is a stress test performed on?

Treadmill or stationary bicycle

When does the test end?
Onset of symptoms or an abnormal ECG
How is the test performed?
1. pt begins on low initial workload
2. Increase workload (speed, grade, resistance) and maintain 1min/longer

What is the optimal frequency for endurance training?

3-4 times per week

How do you determine the intensity for an endurance program?
Calculate % of max HR based on individual

Overload

any stress greater than daily activities

How do you determine maximum heart rate?
220-age (less accurate)

How do you determine exercise heart rate?

Exercise heart rate=HR(rest)+ 60-70%(HR max-HR rest)

The Karvonen Formula is also called?

The heart rate reserve

What is the amount of duration of endurance exercising?
20-30 min @ 60-70% HR max/45 min of overload for healthy pts

What are the three components of an exercise program?

1. warm up


2. aerobic exercise period


3. cool down

What are the four methods of training during the aerobic exercise period?

1. continuous


2. interval


3. Circuit


4. Circuit-interval training

Continuous Training
Sustain sub-max intensity; mm energy through aerobic on slow twitch fibers

Interval Training

Work or exercise is followed by a prescribed rest period

Circuit training

Series of activities that are repeated

Circuit interval training
Combine circuit and interval training, delayed lactic acid production

Phase I: Inpatient
