, -Based on clients goals (muscular endurance, hypertrophy, muscular
strength, or power)
-Use 1RM from test and multiply by the % for training goal
-% of Body Weight
-Repetition Maximum testing




How to estimate strength using repetition maximum testing


Give this one a try later!


-good for intermediate and advanced clients
-not ideal for determining training loads
-decide on number of goal reps for client to perform (6 or 10 is best)
-limit testing to 3 sets
-testing is similar to 1RM except the client performs the number of goal
reps for each trial set at 50-75% of 1RM
-With assistance exercises 8RM or lighter should be used
-Then use table to determine 1RM for training load
-Also can use with equations: RepWt/ (1-.02 * Reps to Failure). more
accurate when used with heavers loads 10 or fewer reps and not 10-15




What is the equation Age Predicted Maximal HR

days per week, minimum of 2
-beginners (no aerobic for past 6 months) start with min. # sessions
3. Exercise duration
-greater VO2 req. less time spent
30-60 minutes or 20-60 minutes
4. Progression
-2 types: improvement and maintenance
-improvement: increase in VO2 capacity or tolerance for longer durations
or higher intensity (limit by 10%)
Maintenance
-reduce freq an maintain duration and intensity
5. Warm up and Cool down
-warm p: small simple movements to more dynamic
-cool down: decrease HR, flexibility exercises
First determine Mode, then frequency, duration and intensity
