All programs are based on what two elements?

Overload and specificity

What is overload

Training occurs when the effort of activity is greater then that to which the individual is accustomed to. degree of improvement intensity,frequency, and duration.

What is specificity

Training that is specific to the type of activity, as well as the energy system and muscles used for the activity.

What did the surgeon general report for when it comes to exercising

Accumulate at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise on some if not all the days of the week.

What are key guidelines for adults

adults shoould have atleast 150 min of moderate intensity of exercise , or 75 min of vigorous exercise

How should aerobic exercise be performed

in episodes of 10 minutes, and should be spread throughout the weeks. Are 300 min of moderate intensity, or 150 of vigorous

What needed for strength training in adults

activities of moderate or high intensity and involve all major muscles group 2 or more days a week

What do children and adolescents require

60 minutes or more of daily physical activity

What is required with aerobics

Should be a combination of both moderate and vigorous, with the latter being done atleast 3 times a week

What about for muscle and bone strengthening?

As part of the 60 minutes daily 3 of the days should focus on each

What should older adults do if they cant maintain 150 minutes of exercise?

Should focused on exercises that help maintain balance


determine level of effort for physical activity relative to their level of fitness


they should understand how exercise affects there condition

What are the component of exercise prescription

intensity, duration,frequency,mode,progression

What is moderate intensity?

is defined as activity at 40 to 60 % of HRR

What is vigorous intensity

is defined as activity at 60 to 85% of HRR

What are the current ASCM recommendation for intensity

55/65 to 90% HR max or 40/50 to 85% of VO2 resevere or HRR

what about for older people inactive

a minimal intensity of only 30 % HRR or VO2 reserve has been shown to be good for CR

What about for younger active individuals

greater than are equal to 40 % of HR reserve increases CR

What is the RPE scale

RPE can be useful adjunct of Heart rate monitoring during exercise especially when using different modes

How can people with low fitness improve there levels

Low fitness individuals, very sedentary people can improve fitness with lower level, longer durations exercise sesions

How can people with high fitness improve there levels

they need to work at the higher end to improve and maintain

when is there a risk for CR and orthopedic injuries

is higher and adherence is lower with higher intensity exercise program

What should be considered for exercise programs

the individuals preferences for exercise which will help with how they adhere to the program

What do individual objectives help with

helps define the characteristics of the program

Whats important about duration

duration and intensity are inversely related

What is the ACSM reccomendation for duration

70 to 85 % of HR max or 60 to 80% VO2 reserve or HRR duration of 20 -30 minutes(not including warm up or cool down)

What is the ASCM reccomendation for frequency

70 to 85% of HR max or 60 to 80% VO2 reserve or HRR, a frequency of 3 to 5 day per week is recommended

What different when it comes to frequency with vigorous exercising

when performed more frequent it increases chances of CR and orthopedic injuries

What is Mode

Any exercise that involves continuous use of large muscles groups for prolonged periods of times


What is crucial about duration in a program

Duration should be increased consistently with increments no bigger than 20% until a person can maintain exercise at a moderate to vigorous intensity for 20 to 30 minutes

What preceed intensity

Increases in duration or frequency preceeds increases in intensity


what should be done once duration and frequency are achieved

Ajustment in intensity of no more than 5 % of HRR every sixth exercise session is tolerated

What are the target kcals for daily and weekly

150 to 400 kcals of physical activity and/or exercise energy expenditure per day


or a minimal caloric threshold of 1000 kcal per week is recommended

What is the target kcal for weight loss and mangement

excess of 2000 kcals
