EXSC 4230 Exam 1 MARINE

ENVIRONMENTS AND ORGANISMS

2025 QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE

VERIFIED ANSWERS

Sports Medicine

all terms related to exercise and sports performance, both medical and scientific aspects

Physiology

the study of the function of the body

Kinesiology

the study of the art and science of human movement

Exercise sciences

The description and explanation of natural phenomena associated with physical activity

Physical activity

Any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscles that results in a substantial increase in caloric requirements over resting energy expenditure

Exercise

A type of physical activity consisting of planned, structured, and repetitive bodily movement done to improve and/or maintain one or more components of physical fitness

Physical fitness

a set of attributes or characteristics that individuals have or achieve that relates to their ability to perform physical activity

Disciplines

information used by professionals to make informed decisions

Settings

Categories that identify the purpose and types of exercise/fitness programs and the criteria used to distinguish programs

Agencies

sites where programs are delivered

Settings (3 groupings of agencies) where services or programs are performed

  1. Recreational (rec center, YMCA, Senior Center)
  2. preventive or prescriptive (training facilities, fitness club)
  3. Rehabilitative (Sports medicine clinic, training room for athletes)

Programs of physical activity

what services are performed

Fitness (walking program, Parks/rec programs)

Exercise (Strength or CR training, Sport Conditioning)

Therapeutic (PT, Cardiac or Pulmonary rehab)

Criteria

Used to distinguish type of exercise programs and settings.

  1. Clientele
  2. Objectives

3.Type of program or activity offered

  1. Testing
  2. Leadership or Personnel

Types of administrative structures

  1. Medical
  2. Academic
  1. Community
  2. Private

Responsibilities of Exercise Professionals

Education: benefits of exercise

Screening: pretest evaluations and stratification

Selection: administration, interpretation

Design: Individualized program

Lead: exercise sessions

Critique: technique, performance

Motivate: continued adherence, improvement

CHD Risk Factors

Primary: Tabacco use, physical inactivity, hypertension, dyslipidemia(elevated LDL's and Total C)

Secondary: Advanced age, Family History, Obesity, pre-diabetes

Health benefits of Physical Activity

Reduced risk of:

Dying prematurely from CHD and stroke

Developing diabetes and metabolic syndrome

Developing high blood pressure

Exercise intensity

MET=?

1MET=?

EXERCISE INTENSITIES USING METS:

Light=?

Moderate=?

Vigorous=?

MET= metabolic equivalent

1 MET= energy cost of rest

Light intensity= less than 3 METs

Moderate intensity= 3-6 METs

Vigorous intensity = more than 6 METs

1 - 5 steps for Health screening and Risk stratification

  1. Have the subject read and complete the appropriate health formation forms
  2. Evaluate the subjects medications and assess the effects of the medications on the resting response, exercise response and test outcomes
  3. Record resting data (age, height, weight, HR, BP, waist circumference, BMI, and posture
  4. Classify the subject from his/her screening results and give rationale for the classification
  5. Determine the level of medical exam and physician supervision recommended by ACSM and give rationale for this choice of supervision.

6 - 10 steps for health screening and risk stratification

  1. Determine any absolute or relative contraindications for exercise testing
  2. Determine what safety precautions were necessary for the test
  3. Explain the test protocol and purpose for the test to the subject.
  4. Determine possible end point(s) of testing for the subject.
  5. Answer the question "do the potential benefits of testing outweigh the risks?" if not then the subject should not be tested

Exercise specialist's responsibilities

Educate clients

Conduct health screening and testing

Design exercise programs

Critique clients' exercise performance

Motivate clients

Physical Fitness Testing

5 areas to cover

  • Components of physical fitness to be tested
  • Purposes of physical fitness testing
  • Testing order and the testing environment
  • Test validity, reliability, and objectivity
  • Prediction equation evaluation
  • Test administration and interpretation

objectivity

inter-tester reliability

Test order

  • Resting BP & HR
  • Body Composition
  • Cardiorespiratory endurance
  • Muscular fitness

Flexibility

Testing environment

  • Relaxed informative atmosphere
  • Friendly, quiet, safe, private, comfortable
  • 70 to 74 degree temp, 40-60% relative humidity
  • calibrated equipment
  • Prepare the are in advance

Three criteria for any test

  • Validity
  • Reliability
  • Objectivity

Line of best fit

  • shows relationship between criterion and predictor values
  • the tighter the cluster to data points around the line of best fit, the smaller the SEE and higher the r x,y

Standard error of estimate (SEE)

the average deviation of indvidual data points from the regression line or line of best fit

Total Error (TE)

the average deviation of individual data points from the line of identify

Constant Error (CE)

the difference between the actual and predicted means of the sample (paired t-test)

Physical fitness pretest instructions

  • wear comfortable clothing, socks, and athletic shoes if available
  • Drink plenty of fluids 24hrs prior to the test
  • Don't eat, drink, or smoke 2-3 hours prior to the test
  • Get adequate sleep (6-8hrs) the night before the test
