| Ways in which people's medical conditions and their exercise programme could be adapted? | No high impact exercises. Cardiovascular exercises. Own Body weight. Start off slowly then gradually build time up on machines. No isometric exercises - any plank, wall squats or over head holds. Low-Mod intensity Water based exercises. Find out what they client can and can't do. The above relates to the medical condition - above is just an example. |
| What does contraindication to exercise mean? | A contraindication is a reason why we might not attempt certain activities. Absolute - they indicate that exercise/physical activity is extremely unwise. A danger to the persons health or live. Relative - the client is at higher risk of complications, but these risks may be outweighed by other considerations - adapting the exercise to suit the clients needs. The client would benefit from exercise but needs to be adapted. |
| Contraindications for the young are? | Children should be mature enough that they can respond to coaching advice, and will behave appropriately. Children should avoid maximal or near-maximal lifts until technique is effective (danger of dropping things on themselves). Body may have not fullt developed. Movements that involve, rapid or repetitive twisting of a joint beyond its normal range may affect joint and soft tissue development. As a child's body is still developing. |
| Ways in which a Child or Children's exercise programme could be adapted. | The program should include at least one exercise for all major muscle groups. Children should learn movements without weight first. The program should be done on nonconsecutive days - too allow body to recover and not too over train. The child should perform one to three sets of each exercise. Each set should include 8–15 repetitions. Set weights for individual participants within developmentally appropriate boundaries - children develop and grow at different rates. Special care must be taken to avoid overuse injuries, which growing children may be more predisposed to. Children should engage in resistance training as part of a wide range of activities. Children should be supervised during any resistance training activity. Proper form and technique must be maintained in all lifts. Explosive lifts, such as the power clean, should be avoided. |
| Contraindications for the elderly are? | Strength, aerobic capacity, resting metabolic rate, immune response, physical function and mobility are reduced as we get older. Muscle mass decreases 3%–6% per decade above 60. Incidence of falls and hip fractures 2–3 x higher in women. BMD - Bone Mineral Density decreases on average 1% year. Muscular strength declines up to 40% after 60 years. |
| Ways in which an Elderly population groups exercise programme could be adapted? | Do 8–10 strength-training exercises, 10–15 repetitions of each exercise two to three times per week. If the client is at risk of falling, perform balance exercises. Recovery time may need to be extended. Add in low impact cardio-vascular if they have problems with joints. See what they can do. Include flexibility work to improve joint mobility. Find out what they client can and can't do. The above is just an example. |
| Contraindications for anyone that's pregnant are? | All the following can be affected but everyone is different - Posture, Centre of Gravity, Balance, Joint Stability, Pelvic Region Instability, Weight Increase, Blood Pressure/Volume Increase, Metabolic Rate increased, Cardiac Output/Stroke Volume increased, Hormonal Effects Unpredictable, Thermo regulation Poor, Respiratory frequency increases and Oxygen demand increases. |
| Ways in which the pregnant population groups exercise programme could be adapted? | Maintain Fitness, Be aware of balance issues and maybe get them to hold onto something, Reduce intensity, use low impact option, avoid lying dow doeing sit ups after 16wks, Lengthier warm up, cool down, Avoid isometric/ballistic movements/twisting, Keep within range of movement and Stop exercise if bleeding, cramping, faintness, elevated blood pressure, dizziness, joint pain. Work with client and see what they can and cannot do. See how long they are into their pregnancy. |
| Contraindications for anyone that has postural issues are? | Back pain/spinal dysfunction/muscular imbalances/nerve compression may limit movement. Joint and disc degeneration. Kyphosis/lordosis/scoliosis may cause muscle imbalance and joint problems |
| Ways in which someone with postural issues their exercise programme could be adapted? | Work within the clients condition -what can they do or not do. Maintain or improve fitness levels. Work on core exercises. Improve muscle stability and strength. Work withing their range of movement. Low impact exercises. May look at using the recumbent bike first. Find out what they client can and can't do. The above is just an example. |
| Contraindications for gender differences are? | VO2 max differences for given levels of ability. Weight bearing exercise more important to reduce osteoporosis likelihood. Statistically more prone to depression — issues to do with confidence, anxiety and stress important. More potential social barriers. Joint laxity. Skeletal differences indicate higher chance of overuse and joint injury. More injury risk to beginners. Female athlete - eating disorders, periods or oseoporosis but males also can have eating disorders and osetoporosis. |
| Ways in which gender differences thier exercise programme could be adapted? | Reduce the amount of high impact exercises until puberty. Own body weight to start with then move onto fixed weights then free weights. Low to moderate intensity to start with. Water based exercises. Encourage regular exercises. Girls only sessions. Avoid doing too much of the same exercise. Boys only sessions. Find out what they client can and can't do. The above is just an example. |
| Contraindications for medical conditions are? | Cardiac or Stroke Rehabilitation. Respiratory isssues. Bone conditions. Obesity. Or anyother medical condition |
| Ways in which people's medical conditions and their exercise programme could be adapted? | No high impact exercises. Cardiovascular exercises. Own Body weight. Start off slowly then gradually build time up on machines. No isometric exercises - any plank, wall squats or over head holds. Low-Mod intensity Water based exercises. Find out what they client can and can't do. The above relates to the medical condition - above is just an example. |
| Benefits of exercise for the Elderly are? | Staying physically active and exercising regularly can help prevent or delay the onset of many diseases and disabilities. People with arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, balance problems, or difficulty walking can reduce the effects of the condition by participation in exercise/physical activity. These are jus examples - many more benefits. |
| Benefits of exercise for the Young are? | Children can strengthen their muscles, bones and joints by climbing, doing gymnastics, or a multitude of activities. Strengthening muscles will help reduce the risk of injury, as well as improving balance, co-ordination and other components of fitness. Stretching exercises will help to improve flexibility and range of motion meaning improved activity function and reduced likelihood of injury. If children are physically active this will ensure a healthy weight. These are jus examples - many more benefits. |
| Benefits of exercise for the Pregnancy are? | Exercise can strengthen the cardiovascular system, so less likely to tire. Strong muscles need less effort to perform activity, Sleep patterns are likely to be improved and the general discomfort of pregnancy will be reduced due to stronger core. Reduce stress due to endorphin production, improve your selfimage and increase speed of post natal recovery. Balance likely to be improved. These are jus examples - many more benefits. |
| Benefits of exercise for Postural Issues are? | Helps reduce back and neck pain, lowers incidence of sciatic nerve problems, reduces muscular imbalances, likely to reduce joint problems associated with poor biomechanics, improves breathing due to increased size of thoracic cavity. These are jus examples - many more benefits. |
| Benefits of exercise for Male and Female are? (Gender differences) | Decreased risk of osteoporosis and bone density related problems. Lower levels of body fat. Postmenopausal women who are physically active have lower cancer risk (due to lower levels of oestrogen). Boost confidence and self-esteem - reduce the risk of an eating disorder. Exercise can strengthen the cardiovascular system, so less likely to tire. Strong muscles need less effort to perform activity. Sleep patterns are likely to be improved. Balance likely to be improved. These are jus examples - many more benefits. |
| Benefits of exercise for a Medical Condition are? | Depends of the medical condition. Increase bone dnesity. Improve cardiovascular system. Improve lung capacity. |
| Physiologival Benefits of the Skeletal System? | Increased bone strength Increased bone mineral content (decrease risk for osteoporosis) Increased tendon & ligament strength (tensile-strength) Increased thickness of cartilage in joints Increased flexibility Improved posture |
| Physiologival Benefits of the Muscular System? | Increased size of muscle fibres (hypertrophy) Increased speed of movement (reaction time) Increased muscular endurance Increased muscular strength Increased aerobic capacity |
| Physiologival Benefits of the Cardio-Respiratory System? | Decreased resting heart-rate Increased stroke volume (more blood pumped out from left ventricle) Increased cardiac output (heart rate x stroke volume) Decreased blood pressure Greater periphery blood flow (arms and legs) Increased lung volume |
| Psychological Benefits of Exercise? | Decreased daily and chronic stress. Exercise has been shown to decrease stress by the release of endorphins and by creating an outlet from daily tension and anxiety. With less stress, many people will begin to feel more energised. |
| Psychological Benefits of Exercise? | Improved self-confidence and body image. By exercising regularly, it is likely that people will begin to see positive physical change. When individuals see results, they tend to be proud of their success and feel good about the way they look and who they are. This may also enhance body image perception and self-confidence. |
| Psychological Benefits of Exercise? | Alleviate depression. Regular exercise can alleviate (and in some cases prevent) the symptoms of depression. This may be because enhancing body image, elevating moods and improving health and physical appearance can all help boost self-confidence and create a feeling of success, therefore alleviating depression symptoms. |
| Psychological Benefits of Exercise? | Increased mental alertness. Stress and fatigue negatively affect concentration, comprehension and memory. Since exercise is an effective way to alleviate stress and increase energy levels, a regular exercise routine should enhance mental alertness and improve overall mental health. |
| Psychological Benefits of Exercise? | Feeling positive overall. One of the best psychological benefits of exercise is just feeling positive overall. While this may be seen as a physical benefit of exercise, the psychological benefits greatly contribute to this overall feeling. The combination of increased self-confidence, decreased stress, better moods, less depression and increased mental health in addition to all of the physical benefits should benefit most people. |
| Psychological Benefits of Exercise? | Enhanced moods. Exercise makes most people feel good and this elevates moods. Whether this is due to the release of endorphins or providing a distraction from daily stress, studies show that regular exercisers have a more positive outlook and are happier overall in comparison to the inactive population. |
