Factors to Consider Prior to Physical Activity • Medical readiness for physical activity (PAR-Q) • Proper equipment and shoes Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Click icon for moreinfo on ACSM guidelines ACSM Guidelines • Because of increased risk, certain individuals should be given a graded exercise test prior to performing vigorous exercise: • Older individuals (men > 40 / women > 50) • Individuals with CHD risk factors(Family history, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, sedentary lifestyle, smoker, diabetic) Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Clinical Exercise Test(Stress Test) A stress test can determine whether a person can safely perform exercise. Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
PAR-Q PHYSICAL ACTIVITY READINESS QUESTIONNAIRE Lab 3a info Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Wearing Good Shoes is Important • Running • Court • Aerobic • Walking • Tennis • Cross trainers See Web03-2 Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Factors to Consider During Daily Physical Activity • Importance of warm-up and cool-down for reducing risk of injuries and soreness • Environmental factors Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Components of a Workout • Warm-up • Workout • Cool-down Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Benefits of a Warm-up • Prepare cardiovascular system • Prepare metabolic system • Prepare musculoskeletal system See Web03-4 Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Components of a Warm-up Lab 3b info • Cardiovascular component • Flexibility component Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Benefits of a Cool-down • Reduces blood pooling • Promotes recovery • Minimizes muscle soreness Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Exercising Safely in Different Environments • Heat • Cold • Altitude • Pollution See “On the Web” for additional infoabout all of these Environments Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Heat Related Illness • Heat cramps • Heat exhaustion • Heat stroke The severity of heat related illness increases with the degree of dehydration. Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Exercise in the Heat • Avoid high heat/humidity • Replace fluids • Gradual exposure (acclimatization) • Dress properly • Rest frequently • Watch for signs See Web03-5See Web03-6 Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Exercise in the Cold • Wind-chill factor • Dress in layers See Web03-7 Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Effects of Altitude • Lower partial pressure of oxygen leads to shortness of breath • Cold, dry air promotes dehydration • Acute mountain sickness See Web03-8 Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Pollution Indices • Ozone • Pollutants • Allergies See Web03-9for pollution info Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
DOMS • Delayed-onset muscle soreness. • 24-48 hrs after intense exercise. • NOT caused by lactic acid. • Caused by microscopic muscle tears resulting from excessive loads on the muscles. • Occurs when you violate the principle of progression. (to be discussed in future concept) See Web03-10 Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e
Common Injuries • Sprains - ligaments • Strains - muscles/tendons • Muscle cramps Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e

Attitudes about Physical Activity • Knowing the most common reasons for inactivity can help you avoid sedentary living. • I don’t have time. • It’s too inconvenient. • I do not enjoy it. • Knowing the reasons people give for being active can help you adopt positive attitudes toward activity. • I do activity for health, wellness, and fitness • I do activity to improve appearance • I do activity because I enjoy it. Refer to Table 6, p. 53 and Table 7, p. 54. Concepts of Physical Fitness 14e Lab 3c info
