CHAPTER 2:SAFETY AND INJURY PREVENTION
What medical Screening tests do you think teens need before starting a physical activity or exercise program?
Why do you think these tests are important?
ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS
Medical ScreeningA basic assessment of a person’s overall
Health and personal fitness.Includes
Physical examinationMeasures individual’s physical readiness for strenuous activity
Preciously undetected medical problems.
LESSON 1: PERSONAL FITNESS SCREENINGS
Who should have a Medical Screen. People with poor lifestyle habits
People who are physically inactive. People over 40 People who are overweight or suffer from obesity.
Obesity: a medical condition in which a person's ratio of body fat to lean muscle mass is excessively high.
People with a known chronic disease. Asthma
Medical Screen TimetableAge Frequency of Screening6 to 15 Every 3 years16 to 34 Every 2 years35 to 59 Once a year60 and up Twice a year
LESSON 1: PERSONAL FITNESS SCREENINGS
What Happens During a Medical ScreeningA complete blood count, or CBC.Your Height and WeightAn examination of your eyes, ears, nose, and ThroatYour Blood Pressure.An examination of our lungs to make sure they are clearAn examination of your heart to make sure the
heartbeat is regular and normalFor males, Hernia Test
Medical History:A record of past health problems and illness.Heredity
LESSON 1: PERSONAL FITNESS SCREENINGS
Environmental Conditions and Physical Activity Extreme heat and Fluid Balance
Your body produces heat during physical Activity You Sweat to reduce you increased body temperature Fluid Balance:
The body’s ability to balance the amounts of fluid taken in with the amounts lost through perspiration or excretion.
Dehydration: Loss of body fluid
Heat Cramps: Are muscle spasms resulting from the loss of large amounts of salt
and water through perspiration.
Heat Exhaustion: An overheating of the body resulting in cold, clammy skin and
symptoms of shock. (Weakness, headache, rapid pulse, stomach discomfort, dizziness)
Heat stroke: A condition in which the body can no longer rid itself of heat through
perspiration. (Loss of consciousness) (MOST SERIOUS)
LESSON2: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
How to Avoid Heat-Related Injury Acclimatization:
the process of allowing your body to adapt slowly to weather conditions.
Takes 5 to 10 days for your body to get acclimated to weather conditions.
Fluid intake: Your body can loss up to 3 liters of water per hour through
perspiration. Water intake recommendations
Before: 1.5-2.5 cups of cool water or sports drink 10 to 20 minutes before exercise. 1 Cup = 8 Ounces
During: Depending on the work out. 1.5 to 3.5 cups of water every hour.
After: Drink 2 cups of water or sports drink for every pound lost. Avoid carbonated drinks and beverages that contain caffeine.
LESSON2: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
How to Avoid Heat-Related Injury continued…Clothing:
Heat: Light weight material. Dry-Fit clothing Loose-fitting Light in color
Setting limits: Heat-stress index: is a scientific measure of the combined
effects of heat and humidity on the body Check out the chart on the next slide.
LESSON2: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
LESSON2: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
Physical Activity in Extreme Cold Hypothermia:
A condition in which your body temperature drops below normal. Long exposure in windy or rainy weather. Body temperature becomes to low and the brain cannot function
properly.
Frostbite: Tissue damage from freezing
Wind Chill Factor: The combined influence of wind and temperature on the body. Refer to the Chart on the next slide.
LESSON2: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
LESSON2: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
Other Outdoor Environmental Concerns Air pollution
Lung Disease: increase risk by exercising outside and inhaling pollutants
Check Air Quality Index Workout indoors
Altitude Higher altitudes (5,000 feet above see level) = lower oxygen
levels. Remember: Trainability
Personal Safety Exercise in well-lit areas. Exercise with friends Avoid isolated trails or paths
Unleashed Dogs “bad dog! Stop!”
LESSON2: ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
ClothingClimbing or hiking
Durable clothingStretching or Bending
Clothing that is comfortable to move in.Outdoor Activities
Breathable fabric (dry fit) Absorbing perspiration (cotton) Warm or Cool depending on weather Water-Resistant and light weight
Sport Specific
LESSON 3: SAFETY GEAR AND CLOTHING
FootwearSport SpecificType of ArchStride Irregularities
Safety EquipmentHelmetKnee and Elbow Pads
LESSON 3: SAFETY GEAR AND CLOTHING
Biomechanics:- Is the study and application
of principles of physics to human motion.
- Correct Jogging form:- Elbows Flexed no more than
90 to 100 degrees.- Body erect; arms,
shoulders, and neck relaxed.
- Hands held loosely.- Heel to toe.
LESSON 4: PREVENTING FITNESS INJURIES
Common fitness Injuries and TreatmentsSkin InjuriesMuscle InjuriesConnective Tissue Injuries
Treatment For Connective Tissue Injuries
Rest the Injured area.
Ice the area to reduce swelling.
Compress the area by wrapping it in an elastic bandage.
Elevate, or raise, the body part.
LESSON 4: PREVENTING FITNESS INJURIES
Injuries to Bone
LESSON 4: PREVENTING FITNESS INJURIES
Anabolic Steroids Chemicals similar in structure to the male hormone
testosterone. Athletes sometimes use steroids in an attempt to increase
weight, strength, and muscle mass.
Effects of Anabolic Steroids
LESSON 5: AVOIDING HARMFUL SUBSTANCES
Male Female
Lower Sperm Count
Infertility
Smaller Testicles Deeper Voice
Increased Risk of Testicle or Prostate Cancer
More Facial Hair
Larger Breasts Smaller Breasts
