This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This retrospective study investigated the effects of membership in a two year cardiac rehabilitation exercise program on cardiovascular risk factors and fitness in male cardiac patients greater than, and less than, 65 years of age. Elderly (n = 58, 71.2 +- 5.0 years) and middle aged (n = 71, 55.9 +- 6.8 years) patients, who had maintained membership for two consecutive years were included in the secondary data analysis. After a two year exercise program membership, both middle aged and elderly groups had significantly increased estimated maximal METs, and treadmill test duration. The increase in estimated maximal METs was significantly greater in the middle aged than in the elderly group. The middle aged group had a small, but significantly decreased waist girth after one year membership, whereas no favorable changes in body fat distribution were found in the elderly group. No significant changes in body mass index were reported in either group. Favorable changes in HDL cholesterol, total/HDL cholesterol, andtriglyceride levels occurred in both groups, however the increase in HDL cholesterol over time was significantly greater in the middle aged, than in the elderly group. No significant changes were found in total cholesterol level in either group. While this community based cardiac rehabilitation program improved fitness and serum lipid levels, the changes were greater in the middle aged than in the elderly group.

Download or read book Exercise and Diabetes written by Sheri R. Colberg and published by American Diabetes Association. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical movement has a positive effect on physical fitness, morbidity, and mortality in individuals with diabetes. Although exercise has long been considered a cornerstone of diabetes management, many health care providers fail to prescribe it. In addition, many fitness professionals may be unaware of the complexities of including physical activity in the management of diabetes. Giving patients or clients a full exercise prescription that take other chronic conditions commonly accompanying diabetes into account may be too time-consuming for or beyond the expertise of many health care and fitness professionals. The purpose of this book is to cover the recommended types and quantities of physical activities that can and should be undertaken by all individuals with any type of diabetes, along with precautions related to medication use and diabetes-related health complications. Medications used to control diabetes should augment lifestyle improvements like increased daily physical activity rather than replace them. Up until now, professional books with exercise information and prescriptions were not timely or interactive enough to easily provide busy professionals with access to the latest recommendations for each unique patient. However, simply instructing patients to “exercise more” is frequently not motivating or informative enough to get them regularly or safely active. This book is changing all that with its up-to-date and easy-to-prescribe exercise and physical activity recommendations and relevant case studies. Read and learn to quickly prescribe effective and appropriate exercise to everyone.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "ACSM's Health/Fitness Facility Standards and Guidelines, Fourth Edition, " presents the current standards and guidelines that help health and fitness establishments provide high-quality service and program offerings in a safe environment. This text is based in large part on both the work that has begun through the NSF international initiative to develop industry standards to serve as the foundation for a voluntary health and fitness facility certification process and the third edition of "ACSM's Health/Fitness Facility Standards and Guidelines." The ACSM's team of experts in academic, medical, and health and fitness fields have put together an authoritative guide for facility operators and owners. By detailing these standards and guidelines and providing supplemental materials, "ACSM's Health/Fitness Facility Standards and" "Guidelines" provides a blueprint for health and fitness facilities to use in elevating the standard of care they provide their members and users as well as enhance their exercise experience. The fourth edition includes new standards and guidelines for pre-activity screening, orientation, education, and supervision; risk management and emergency procedures; professional staff and independent contractors; facility design and construction; facility equipment; operational practices; and signage. This edition includes these updates: -Standards and guidelines aligned with the current version of the pending NSF international health and fitness facility standards -New guidelines addressing individuals with special needs -New standards and guidelines regarding automated external defibrillators (AEDs) for both staffed and unstaffed facilities -Revised standards and guidelines to reflect changing directions and business models within the industry, including 24/7 fitness facilities, medically integrated facilities, and demographic-specific facilities -New standards and guidelines to better equip facilities that are dealing with youth to ensure the proper care of this segment of the clientele With improved organization, new visual features, and additional appendixes, the fourth edition offers a comprehensive and easy-to-use reference of health and fitness facility standards and guidelines. Readers can readily apply the information and save time and expense using over 30 templates found within the appendixes, including questionnaires, informed consent forms, and evaluation forms. Appendixes also contain more than 30 supplements, such as sample preventive maintenance schedules, checklists, and court and facility dimensions. Included in appendix A is Blueprint for Excellence, which allows readers to search efficiently for specific information regarding the standards and guidelines within the book. Health and fitness facilities provide opportunities for individuals to become and remain physically active. As the use of exercise for health care prevention and prescription continues to gain momentum, health and fitness facilities and clubs will emerge as an integral part of the health care system. The fourth edition of "ACSM's Health/Fitness Facility Standards" "and Guidelines" will assist health and fitness facility managers, owners, and staff in keeping to a standard of operation, client care, and service that will assist members and users in caring for their health through safe and appropriate exercise experiences.

This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 948 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardiovascular, respiratory, and related conditions cause more than 40 percent of all deaths globally, and their substantial burden is rising, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Their burden extends well beyond health effects to include significant economic and societal consequences. Most of these conditions are related, share risk factors, and have common control measures at the clinical, population, and policy levels. Lives can be extended and improved when these diseases are prevented, detected, and managed. This volume summarizes current knowledge and presents evidence-based interventions that are effective, cost-effective, and scalable in LMICs.
