why are health assessments necessary?

1. ID and exclude those who could be complicated


2. Identify those with risk factors


3. those who have significant disease consideration


4. ID those with risk factors

If client experiences pain

discontinue exercise, recommend they see a physician.

individual with known cardiovascular, pulmonary, or metabolic disease

definition of moderate exercise

-can be sustained for 45 min with gradual initiation and progression


-40-60% maximum oxygen uptake

definition vigorous exercise

-substantial cardio-respiratory challenge


->60% max oxygen uptake

posture

-the position of the limbs or the carriage of the body as a whole


-the relative position of the parts of the body

postural control

a person's ability to maintain control of the body or the body's segments in response to forces that threaten to disturb the body's structural equilibrium

Facilitation

Enhancement or reinforcement of a reflex or other nervous activity at the reflex center of other exitatory impulses

inhibition

a nerve, stimulation of which represses activity

dealing with muscles to deal with posture

-stretch and lengthen muscles that are short and tight (facilitated)


-strengthen muscles that are long and weak (inhibited)



Lordosis

excessive inward curvature of the spine

Kyphosis

excessive outward curvature of the spine (hunchback)

Upper Cross and Lower Cross Syndrome

Lordosis and Kyphosis-

-exaggerated curvature of the spine


-head slightly forward; pelvis forward; knees hyperextended


-short and facilitated: hip flexors, tensor fascia latae, rectus femoris, upper traps, pecs


-long and inhibited: lower and middle trapezium, rectus abdominus, gluteus maximum and minimus, the vasti group, anterior tibialis



Flat Back Posture

-head forward, pelvis tilted backwards. lower back straight and flexed.

-short and facilitated: hamstrings and abdominals


-elongated and inhibited: hip flexors





Sway Back Posture

-head forward, overly rounded upper back, tail tucked under, hyper-extended hip and knees


-short and facilitated: hamstrings, upper internal obliques, neck extensors


-long and inhibited: external oblique, hip flexor, upper back extensors, neck flexors

handedness

usually with dominant hand:


- that shoulder lower


-hip higher on that side


-pelvis deviated towards that side


-spine deviates towards opposite side, and opposite foot pronated

genu valgum

knocked knees


caused by foot pronation



genu varum

bow leggedness


-pronation of feet


-medial rotation of femurs


-hyperextension of knees

when doing static posture analysis

front, then back, then side


start at feet


ankle right under tibia and fibula


knees under big and second toe

static posture check

front, then back, then side


head: ear level w/ shoulder


cervical spine: slightly convex to anterior


scapulae: flat against upper back


thoracic spine: slightly convex to posterior


lumbar spine: curve towards anterior


pelvis: psis slightly below asis


hip/knee/ankle joints: neutral

steps in dynamic posture assessments- lower extremity

1. squat


2. single leg stance


3. single leg squat/ toe touch around circle


4. bend and lift/ dumbell rows

steps in dynamic posture assessments- upper extremity

1. latissimus dorsi- reach back over head to touch wall


2. goal posts

Comparative Analysis of Lower Extremity (CALE) for Ankle

1. dorsi flexion 10-20 deg


2. plantar flexion 45 deg


3. inversion 30 deg


4. eversion 20 deg

CALE for hamstring

Popliteal angle test 170 deg

CALE for hip (lying on back)

flexion: 90-120 deg


extension: 15-30 deg


abduction 30-45 deg


adduction 30 deg


external rotation 45 deg


internal rotation 35-40 deg

CALE Thomas Test

lie on back, one knee to chest, the other with toe to ground (off table).


check lordosis and compare to kneeling

purpose of fitness testing

-to help build exercise program


-allow or evaluation of progress


-set attainable goals


-education


-risk mitigation

components of fitness testing

-resting HR and bp


-body composition


-cardiorespiratory fitness


-muscular strength/endurance


-flexibility/ posture


-optional others

ways to find HR

1. Chest auscultation- stethoscope on heart


2. radial artery- wrist


3. carotidpalpation- neck

reasons HR needs to be accurate

1. used to calculate exercise targets


2. baseline for comparison


3. used to determine cardio fitness


4. note if very unhealthy/needs to see doctor (average normal RHR= 60-100 bpm)

Resting Blood Pressure

Systolic BP(mm Hg)Diastlic BP(mm Hg)Optimal: S <120 and D < 80


Normal: S 120-129 and D 80-84


HighNormal: S 130-139 or D 85-89


HypertensionS 1: S: 140-159 or D: 90-99


Stage 2: S 160-179 or D 100-109


Stage 3: S ≥ 180 or D ≥ 110

taking bp

- cuff bottom 1 in above elbow, bladder over brachial artery


-bell of stethoscope 1 in below cuff, on brachial artery


-inflate to 160mmHg


-release pressure 2-3 mmHg/sec


-point of first rhythmic sound heard- systolic


-pitch changes or noise disappears= diastolic

Body Composition

fat weight(FW) vs. lean body weight(LBW)


Femalestend to store fat in the triceps, thighs, and hips,while men store it in their abdomen.

anthropometric measurements
