Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to prescribe and monitor exercise can be a difficult task for fitness professionals. Previous studies have shown a drift upward in Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) during prolonged exercise. The purpose of this study was to examine the use of the Talk Test (TT) to prescribe exercise and the effect on RPE over a 60 minute trial. Twelve subjects performed three exercise trials at last positive-I (LP-l), last positive (LP), and equivocal (EQ) intensities, according to incremental TT responses. During each trial heart rate (HR), lactate (HLa), RPE, and TT score were recorded every ten minutes, along with a session RPE score 30 minutes following the exercise trial. HR, HLa, RPE, and IT score were all significantly higher in the EQ trial compared to the LP and LP-l trials. Session RPE and mean RPE were significantly higher in the EQ trial compared to the LP-l and LP trials. There was no significant difference between HR, HLa, RPE, session RPE, mean RPE, or TT between the LP-l and LP trials. This study concluded that exercise can be safely prescribed and monitored using the TT when exercise intensities are prescribed from the LP and LP-l.
Download or read book Subjective Regulation of Exercise Intensity by Perceived Exertion written by Michael Andrew Smutok and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this investigation was to determine if a safe and effective physical conditioning heart rate (HR) could be prescribed by perception of exertion. Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) were requested from ten normal adult males during treadmill exercise trials at 4.7, 6.5, 9.7, 11.3, and 12.9 km/hr (T1). Subjects were then requested to subjectively regulate their own treadmill speed during two separate trials (T2 and T3) at the RPE reported for each speed during T1. Speed and HR at equivalent RPE were compared during T1, T2 and T3. Regression analyses revealed that there was no difference in speed across all RPE between the three trials, however, HR was seen to become progressively higher during T2 and T3 than during T1 as speed and RPE decreased. HR reliability was significant (p.05) during running but not significant (p.05) during walking. It is concluded that prescription of exercise by RPE can produce safe, effective and reliable conditioning HR above 150 beats/min (80% HR max) and running speeds above 9 km/hr (5.6 mph). Use of RPE for exercise prescription below these levels can result in inaccurate and unreliable conditioning heart rates. This method of exercise prescription has limitations and could result in dangerously high HR if used in cardiac rehabilitation programs for patients in which strict adherence to target HR is essential.

Download or read book WHO Global Report on Falls Prevention in Older Age written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2008 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The WHO Falls Prevention for Active Ageing model provides an action plan for making progress in reducing the prevalence of falls in the older adult population. By building on the three pillars of falls prevention, the model proposes specific strategies for: 1. Building awareness of the importance of falls prevention and treatment; 2. Improving the assessment of individual, environmental, and societal factors that increase the likelihood of falls; and 3. For facilitating the design and implementation of culturally appropriate, evidence-based interventions that will significantly reduce the number of falls among older persons. The model provides strategies and solutions that will require the engagement of multiple sectors of society. It is dependent on and consistent with the vision articulated in the WHO Active Ageing Policy Framework. Although not all of the awareness, assessment, and intervention strategies identified in the model apply equally well in all regions of the world, there are significant evidence-based strategies that can be effectively implemented in all regions and cultures. The degree to which progress will be made depends on to the success in integrating falls prevention strategies into the overall health and social care agendas globally. In order to do this effectively, it is necessary to identify and implement culturally appropriate, evidence-based policies and procedures. This requires multi-sectoral, collaborations, strong commitment to public and professional education, interaction based on evidence drawn from a variety of traditional, complementary, and alternative sources. Although the understanding of the evidence-base is growing, there is much that is not yet understood. Thus, there is an urgent need for continued research in all areas of falls prevention and treatment in order to better understand the scope of the problem worldwide. In particular, more evidence of the cost-effectiveness of interconnections is needed to develop strategies that are most likely to be effective in specific setting and population sub-groups.

Download or read book Perceived Exertion for Practitioners written by Robert J. Robertson and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2004 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Perceived Exertion for Practitioners: Rating Effort With the OMNI Picture System,you'll have the most up-to-date, innovative way to rate clients' physical exertion in your professional practices. You'll be able to expand your knowledge of perceived exertion as used today by health and fitness specialists and clinical therapeutic practitioners, and you'll learn how to apply the newly developed OMNI Picture System of perceived exertion. Author and highly acclaimed researcher Robert Robertson developed the OMNI Picture System, which uses picture scales to enable exercisers to rate their exertion visually. In this text, Dr. Robertson presents real-life scenarios involving perceptually based exercise assessments and programming using the OMNI Scaling System. The scenarios focus on people with various training and conditioning needs, from improving personal health to developing recreational and competitive fitness. By rating their effort based on pictures of other exercisers, your clients will be able to accurately set and regulate their conditioning intensity using a target rating of perceived exertion (RPE) zone. Special features of Perceived Exertion for Practitionersinclude the following: -11 OMNI picture scales, which apply to all types of exercise and are reproducible for use as handouts, in fitness facilities, and in classrooms -Sample instructions on what to say to clients in various situations -Both clinical and field-based perceptual tests for use in aerobic, anaerobic, and resistance exercise assessments -Case studies that describe the clients' characteristics, identify the exercise need, and present an action plan to meet that need using RPE as the training zone -Actual programs for aerobic, anaerobic, and resistance training that employ OMNI Scale RPE zones to guide intensity Perceived Exertion for Practitionersgives you a broader understanding of perceived exertion, and you'll be able to apply what's in the text by using the 11 picture scales included. The text is a must-have for anyone looking for a better way to use ratings of perceived exertion to develop training programs.
