Basic exercise guidelines for individuals with lung disease :

Back (Definition)

CHD is caused by

Atherosclerosis (plaque formation).

Arthrosclerosis causes CHD, which leads to

Narrowing of the coronary arteries & ultimately angina pectoris (chest pain), myocardial infarction (heart attack) or both.

The primary cause of CHD is

Poor lifestyle choices, primarily cigarette as smoking, Poor diet, physical inactivity.

The emphasis on treating CHD is centered on improving the

Health of the internal lining of the coronary artery, called plaque stabilization”.

The other primary focus on the treatment of CHD is through

Medical management, including pharmaceuticals & aggressive lifestyle intervention.

(eating better, more exercise, smoking cessation, & stress reduction)

The risk of serious cardiovascular complications, even death, is

Low in exercise programs that include clients with CHD.

Physiologic in training considerations for individuals with CHD :

Back (Definition)

Clients must be able to find in monitor their own

Pulse rate/use an accurate monitor to stay below their safe upper limit of exercise.

The heart rate response to exercise in those with CHD can vary

Considerably from age predicted formulas, & will often be lower.

Signs and symptoms should always supersede all those as a sign to

Decrease or stop exercising.

Signs and symptoms vary greatly among individuals with CHD, so careful

Monitoring of HR, RPE, & signs of worsening CHD (angina) are important.

RPE :

Back (Definition)

What are the benefits of exercise for those with CHD

Lower risk of mortality


Increased exercise tolerance, muscle strength.


Reduction in angina/heart failure symptoms.


Improved physiological status & social judgement.

Heart disease may be slowed (even reversed) when a multifactor

Intervention program of intensive education, exercise, counseling, & lipid lowering medications are used (appropriately).

What assessment should be used for those with CHD?

Single leg balance (or squat).

If possible, what position should those with CHD perform their exercises?

In a seated or standing position because they are the easiest & safest.

When using SMR on the CHD client you

Consult with a registered/licensed physician.

Cardio respiratory training for those with CHD should focus on what stage?

Stage 1, Progressing only with the physicians advice.

Core & resistance training exercises should be performed in what position for those with CHD?

The standing or sitting position.

Prone Iso-ab (planks) on an incline


Standing torso cable iso-rotation


Cobras in a standing position (two or single)

What type of training would not be recommended for those with CHD in the initial months of training?

Back (Definition)

Who does osteoporosis affect & can it be treated?

Osteoporosis affects both men & women & is treatable.

Type 1 osteoporosis is most prevalent in

Postmenopausal women because of a deficiency in estrogen (usually secondary to menopause).

Osteoporosis is characterized by an increase in ___ with a decrease in ___, leading to ___.

Increase : bone resorption (removal of old bone)


Decrease : bone remodeling (formation of new bone)


Leading : decrease in BMD

Osteoporosis commonly affects the

Neck of the femur & the lumbar vertebrae.

Add a crease and BM D places what in a weakened state?

The core, which is more susceptible to injury (fracture).

Every five years in women over the age of 50.

How many American individuals already have osteoporosis?

10 million.

How many Americans are estimated to have low bone mass?

34 million, this place is the individuals at risk for developing osteoporosis in the future..

How many Americans does osteoporosis affect each year? How many are affected by hip fractures?

25 million each year, 1.5 million hip fractures.

Basic exercise guidelines for those with coronary heart disease :

Back (Definition)

Of the one point million hip fractures what percentage of patients return to a normal functional status?What is one of the most important risk factors that influence

20%

What is one of the most important risk factors that influence osteoporosis?

Peak bone mass (or density).

What is peak bone mass?

The highest amount of bone mass a person is able to achieve during their lifetime.

Stress placed on the musculoskeletal system.

Stress placed on the musculoskeletal system.

To maintain consistent bone remodeling, people must remain

Active enough to ensure adequate stress on their body, especially adolescents/young adults trying to reach peak bone mass.

Client should be encouraged to increase dietary

Intake of calcium, decrease alcohol intake, & cease to smoking.

Whether client has osteopenia or osteoporosis it is important to determine to what degree the client may engage in

(Weight-bearing activities walking, jogging, dancing, stair climbing, etc.) or resistance training

Physiologic & training considerations for individuals with osteoporosis :

Back (Definition)

There is a balance between the benefit of providing exercises that are designed to increase bone through the provision of bone stress (weight-bearing exercise or heavy resistance exercise) & the

Risk of fracture that might be predicted by advanced osteoporosis.

Osteopenia

A decrease in calcification/density of bone & reduced bone mass.

What does BMD stand for?

Bone mineral density.

What is a precursor to osteoporosis?

Osteopenia

Osteoporosis

A decrease in bone density & mass & an increase in the space between bones, resulting in porosity & fragility.
