• Evaluation of progress with post tests
HIPAA Law
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
What is considered low risk?
Men < 55 and Women < 45
who are asymptomatic and meet
no more than 1 risk factor
What is considered moderate risk?
Men >55 and Women >45
OR
Meet more than 2 risk factors
What is considered high risk?
Those who have known cardiovascular, metabolic, or pulmonary disease

or those who show signs and symptoms of them
What are the risk factors?
• Family history
• Smoking
• Sedentary lifestyle
• Obesity
• Hypertension
• High cholesterol
• Pre-diabetes
What are some things that require a physicians approval?
• Pacemaker
• Angioplasty
• Cardiac catheterization
• Heart attack
• Heart surgery
• Valve problems
• Heart failure
• Congenital heart disease
What intensities are low, moderate, and high risk people allowed to exercise at?
Low risk: Vigorous activity >65% Vo2R

Moderate risk: Moderate activity <65% Vo2R

High risk: NO VIGOROUS
What measurements are taken at rest?
• HR
• BP
• Waist Circumference
• Lower back flexibility
• Percent body fat
What measurements are taken during a submax test?
• HR
• BP
• Vo2 max
• RPE
What are absolute contraindications?
No way can they do any exercise

ex: recent ECG change, chest pain with or without exercise, disarrythmias, aortic stenosis, etc
What are relative contraindications?
These are less threatening conditions but still danger enough warranting a supervision

coronary stenosis, electrolyte imbalance, severe hypertension (>200/100), tacchycardia or brachycardia, muscle pain, rheumatoid arthritis, untreated diabetes, etc
What is cardiorespiratory endurance?
The ability of the lungs, heart, and blood vessels
to deliver oxygen to the cells to meet the
demands of physical activity
What is Vo2?
The amount of oxygen consumed by the body
What do we use Vo2 to determine?
Level of fitness
How does our recovery time indicate fitness?
The quicker the recovery time, the better shape you are in
What are normal heart rate levels?
60-100 bpm
What should it increase to during exericse?
somewhere between 100 bpm and 85% of our HR max
What should resting blood pressure be under?
140/90 mmHg
What are the max levels that systolic and diastolic should reach during exercise?
Systolic should stay under 250

Diastolic should stay under 115
Reasons to stop a submax test
• Angina
• Arrythmias
• Systolic reaches 250 mmHg
• Diastolic reaches 115 mmHg
• SOB, wheezing, leg cramps
• Cyanois, pallor, confusion, light headed, cold clammy skin
• Failure of HR to increase with exercise
• Subject requests to stop
• Verbal or physical signs of fatigue
HR max equation
HR max = 220 - Age
Exercise Px for Muscular Strength
F: 2-3 days/wk

I: 70-95% 1 RM

T: 1-3 sets, 1-8 reps, 1-5 minute rest

Heart Rate Reserve
HRR = HRmax − HRrest
Karvonen Method
THR = (HRR * intensity) + HRrest
