What are ways to measure VO2 max correct answers Graded exercise test (GXT), Maximal
Exercise Test, Submaximal Exercise Test
What is submaximal exercise testing? correct answers Measures VO2 max indirectly through
predictive equations based on the HR - workload
relationship
Disadvantages of Submaximal Exercise Testing correct answers • this type of test could be a
maximal test
• Client's motivation and pacing strategy during the test can have a profound effect on the
final outcome
• Does not allow comprehensive monitoring of both HR and BP during the test
• Relatively large standard error of the estimate
When does a Ceiling Effect occur when Measuring VO2 max correct answers the test is too easy
to produce sufficient CV response to get an accurate
functional capacity
When does a Floor Effect occur when Measuring VO2 max correct answers the test is too
difficult (from a vascular or physical perspective) so that the test
is not limited by the cardiovascular system but by other barriers (e.g. anxiety, peripheral
claudication, exercise specificity
How are results used from exercise testing correct answers ⁃ Educating clients about their present
fitness status relative to age and sex-matched
norms
⁃ Collecting baseline and follow-up data to evaluate progress
⁃ Motivating patients by establishing reasonable and attainable exercise goals
⁃ Providing information to inform return-to-work (RTW) decisions
⁃ Disability/mobility assessment
Advantages for One-Minute Walk Test correct answers - Applicable to a wide range of
individuals
- Limited equipment needed
- Familiar activity
Disadvantages for One-Minute Walk Test correct answers - Inability to monitor physiological
variables during test
Purpose of 20-meter shuttle test (Beep Test) correct answers Multi-stage shuttle run test used to
estimate VO2max and maximal aerobic speed
Advantages for 20-Meter Shuttle Test correct answers - Multiple stages allows for a wide range
of fitness levels to be tested
