ADL - Answer-One's ability to perform daily tasks such as self care and chores Physical Activity - Answer-Transition from rest to active movement Exercise - Answer-Planned and structured physical activity to improve one or more of the 5 components of fitness 5 Components of Fitness - Answer-1. Cardiorespiratory Endurance 2. Muscle Endurance 3. Muscle Strength 4. Flexibility 5. Body Composition Types of Fitness Conditioning - Answer-Health Related: Focuses on enhancing QoL, preventing disease, moderate-intensity PA Fitness Conditioning: Focuses on exercise regimens based on recommendations for improving fitness SAID - Answer-In order to improve the goal, you must practice the goal. Ex. If the goal is a 5K, you must run to train for it Rate of Remodeling - Answer-Remodel Damage -- increase training effort Damage Remodel -- decrease training effort (or may cause overuse/injury) Signs of Over Training - Answer-Injury, inc resting HR, fatigued throughout day, low performance FITT-VP - Answer-Frequency (how often) Intensity (how hard) Time (duration) Type (mode)Volume (overall amount) Progression (how to advance) ATP-CP Phosphagen System - Answer-Anaerobic 0-30 sec high intensity work sprints, weight lifting Anaerobic Glycolysis/Lactic Acid - Answer-Anaerobic Glucose & lactic acid :30-3 mins high intensity work 400-800m sprint, 100m swim Oxidation System - Answer-Fat oxidation 3+ minutes important for endurance capacity limited by O2 and Cals available *Unfit client has decreased ability to deliver O2 from dec capillary density preventing delivery O2 Physiological Adaptations - Answer-1. Oxygen Deficit - initial stages of CV training bout referred to as lag in O2 consumption, relying on anaerobic metabolism 2. Steady State - achieved w/ sustained CV once O2 supplied equals O2 demanded. Inc fit, reach SS faster and endurance depends how long you stay here. 3. EPOC - O2 debt, uptake remained elevated post exercise for several minutes (or house if longer bout); EPOC effect is to restore CP/ATP in muscles and O2 in blood; "after burn" effect Sino Atrial Node - Answer-Pacemaker of the heart, in RA, initiates contraction Atrioventricular Node - Answer-Slows down the heart contracting Right Chambers - Answer-RA receives deoxy blood from vena cava. Blood travels to RV through tricuspid valve. Leaves RV via pulmonary semilunar valve to pulmonary system.Left Chambers - Answer-LA receives oxy blood from veins. Travels to LV through bicuspid valve then to aorta through the aortic semilunar valve where it then travels through the body's arteries to deliver oxygen. Pulse Sights - Answer-Carotid (not recommended to perform on someone) Brachial Femoral Radial (most recommended) Heart Rate - Answer-Avg is 72bpm resting (normal is 60-100bpm) Good gauge for clients to see how fit they are becoming Tachycardia/Bradychardia - Answer-Faster than normal heart rate, 100 bpm Slower than normal heart rate, 60 bpm Stroke Volume (SV) - Answer-The amount of blood pumped from the left ventricle in one beat Cardiac Output (CO) - Answer-The amount of blood pumped from the heart in one minute
