Quiz Questions

“______________” is the best exercise?

True or False?True or False?

You burn more fat at lower intensities of exercise. T

Muscle turns into fat (and vice versa) when you start or stop exercising? F

Page 3: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Quiz Questions The best way to flatten your stomach is

through doing sit-ups/crunches at least 10 minutes per day. F

If you are thin, you are fit. F

Women who strength train generally do not get bulky muscles. T

Quiz Questions

No pain, no gain? F

In order to burn fat while exercising, you should be gasping for air. F

If you do less than 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, you are wasting your time? F

Quiz Questions

If you’re exercising and you’re not losing weight, you’re doing something wrong. F

Your metabolism can remain higher than normal for up to 12 hours after you finish an aerobic workout. T

The more muscle you build, the more calories you burn throughout the day. T

Now You Know!

Americans spend an average of ____ minutes per day exercising?

A) 15

B) 30

C) 60

Page 10: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Answer: 15 minutes

On average, Americans spend 10 times that amount of time, about 150 minutes watching television…

See Core Concepts Figure 13-2,

page 365, for immediate and

long-term effects of regular exercise.

Types of Exercise

AerobicAerobic

“with oxygen” low/mod intensity long duration

examples: walking, aerobic dance, jogging, swimming, cross country skiing

AnaerobicAnaerobic

“without oxygen” high intensity short duration

examples: weightlifting, plyometrics, gymnastics, sprinting

5 Components of Fitness(We measure these during your CHAMP)

1) Body composition

2) Flexibility

3) Muscular strength

4) Muscular endurance

5) Cardiovascular endurance

Page 13: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

5 Components

Body CompositionBody Composition: percentage of fat and non-fat tissue Methods of measuring:

• Scale

• Hydrostatic

• Calipers

• Futrex

• Impedence

Page 14: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

5 Components

Flexibility:Flexibility: Range of Motion (ROM) at a joint• neck, hip, stride, back

Muscular Endurance:Muscular Endurance: Ability of muscle to exert sub-maximal force over a pd. of time• sit-ups, push -ups

Muscular Strength:Muscular Strength: Ability to exert maximum force against resistance• bench press, leg press, hand grip

Page 15: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

5 Components

Cardiovascular endurance:Cardiovascular endurance: ability of heart and lungs to pump oxygenated blood to cells to meet the demands of prolonged physical activity• 1.5 mile run, 1 mile walk, 4 mile cycle, 12 min. swim

Page 16: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

FITT Principlefor aerobic exercise

Guidelines provided by ACSM and the Surgeon General’s Healthy People 2000

Frequency: 3-5 days per week

Intensity: 60-85% of Max. Heart Rate

Time: 15-60 minutes per session

Type: activities involving large muscle groups

Page 17: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Now You Know!

To improve your health, you must do high -intensity exercise.

True or False???

Page 18: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Answer: False

Even moderate physical activity such as walking the dog or doing yard work has significant health benefits.

Page 19: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Intensity(How hard should I be working?)

Target Heart Rate (number of beats per minute)

60-85% of Max. Heart Rate (MHR)

220 - age = MHR

.60 x MHR and .85 x MHR

Carotid pulse: groove in neck

Radial pulse: outside of supinated wrist

15 sec. x 4 or 10 sec. x 6 or 6 sec. x 10

Intensity(How hard should I be working?)

Rating of Perceived Exertion--subjective scale0 Nothing1 Weak2 Moderate3 *Somewhat strong4 Strong56 *Very strong78910 Maximal

Talk Test--should be able to talk while exercising aerobically

Page 21: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Anaerobic Activity Guidelines

FrequencyFrequency: 2 days per week per muscle group (minimum)

Sets: Sets: 2-3 sets (depending on fitness level)Repetitions: Repetitions: 8-12 per set

Allow adequate rest and stretch between setsAllow 24 to 48 hours rest between workoutsBe aware of DOMS - delayed onset muscle

soreness

Page 22: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Flexibility

Static vs. Ballistic vs. PNF Frequency: 3-5 days per week Static stretch after muscles are warm Time: hold 30-60 seconds for increased

flexibility

What about Ben Gay? Icy Hot? Warm bath?

Exercise and Weight ControlEnergy expenditure equation

• BMR (basal metabolic rate) + TEF (thermic effect of food) + ADL (activities of daily living) = total calories needed -- we will calculate your 24 hour expenditure in lab

• Calories in (CI) vs. Calories out (CO)CI > CO = Gain

CI < CO = Lose

CI = CO = Maintain

• How can you increase / decrease the right side of the equation???

Page 24: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Exercise and Weight Loss

3500 calories = 1 lb. of fat 1-2 lb. weight loss per week maximum Careful of differences on scale (water,

clothes, etc)

Page 25: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Effects of Dieting without Exercise

Types of diet (high protein, low carbohydrate, limited food, low calorie)

Muscle loss Metabolic rate slows (starvation + sedentary)

Therefore, body fat percentage more likely to increase when diet is over

Putting Your Exercise Program Together

Set Goals Select Activities Make a

Commitment Begin and maintain

your program Record and assess

your progress

Page 27: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Starting a program

Warm-up • 5-7 minutes

• large muscle groups

• static stretches (20 sec)

• Prior to all aerobic and anaerobic exercise

Guidelines

Cool down• 5-10 minutes

• stretch 30-60 sec.

Start off slowly, ie

15 min, 2 days week

60%MHR, light weight

Page 28: Exercise for Health, Fitness, and Fun

Motivation Find exercises you

like! Increase activity during the day

• take stairs• park far away

Change your goal• cosmetic vs. health• fitness as a goal

Music

Buddy system Take a class for credit Put goals and progress

in writing Reassess goals

frequently Train for an event Don’t get in all or

nothing mindset
