Book Perceived Exertion Laboratory Manual

Download or read book Perceived Exertion Laboratory Manual written by Luke Haile and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​ ​This manual provides laboratory-based learning experiences in perceptually and psychosocially linked exercise assessment, prescription, and programming. The primary pedagogic outcome is the ability to use applied theory and practice in perceptual and psychosocial exercise assessment and program design to promote the adoption and maintenance of a physically active lifestyle, enhancing overall health fitness. Perceptual and psychosocial variables are presented in individual, stand-alone laboratory modules that can supplement existing curricula such as exercise and sport psychology, exercise physiology, exercise testing and prescription, and exercise training and conditioning. In addition, the complete modular set has a conceptual flow that allows its presentation as an entire, laboratory-based course. The laboratory modules are divided into three primary units: assessment (theoretical constructs, scales and procedures, tests), prescription (self-regulation, performance), and program evaluation. The manual uses a unique format in which case studies are embedded in the conceptual flow of each lab module facilitating translation of laboratory results to real-world application. The manual concludes with a discussion of perceptually and psychosocially linked exercise prescription and programming applications in public health, such as program monitoring and adherence.

Book The Routledge Companion to Embodied Music Interaction

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to Embodied Music Interaction written by Micheline Lesaffre and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to Embodied Music Interaction captures a new paradigm in the study of music interaction, as a wave of recent research focuses on the role of the human body in musical experiences. This volume brings together a broad collection of work that explores all aspects of this new approach to understanding how we interact with music, addressing the issues that have roused the curiosities of scientists for ages: to understand the complex and multi-faceted way in which music manifests itself not just as sound but also as a variety of cultural styles, not just as experience but also as awareness of that experience. With contributions from an interdisciplinary and international array of scholars, including both empirical and theoretical perspectives, the Companion explores an equally impressive array of topics, including: Dynamical music interaction theories and concepts Expressive gestural interaction Social music interaction Sociological and anthropological approaches Empowering health and well-being Modeling music interaction Music-based interaction technologies and applications This book is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand human interaction with music from an embodied perspective.

Book Effect of Music Tempo on Self selected Exercise Intensity in Untrained Women

Download or read book Effect of Music Tempo on Self selected Exercise Intensity in Untrained Women written by Kayla Nicole Smitherman and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: To determine the impact of music tempo on self-selected exercise intensity in untrained women. Methods: Untrained women (N= 13) age (M= 26.0 SD= 7.8 years) performed a graded exercise test to determine peak oxygen consumption (VO2) and ventilatory threshold (VT). During a separate session, participants completed three 10-minute bouts of aerobic exercise on an upright cycle ergometer under the conditions of no music (NM), medium tempo music (MT), and fast tempo music (FT). Intensity (%VO2-at-VT) was self-selected in all conditions. To test the primary outcome, an ANOVA was used to assess differences in intensity between conditions. Results: No significant differences were found between self-selected intensities between conditions (NM= 98.4±15.8 %VO2-at-VT, MT= 99.1±13.3 %VO2-at-VT, FT= 99.8±12.0 %VO2-at-VT, F(2,24)= 0.40, p=0.96). Conclusion: Music tempo alone may not be sufficient to impact self-selected exercise intensity in untrained women.

Book Warning Design

Download or read book Warning Design written by John Edworthy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996-03-12 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why don't we always obey warnings? In discussing a wide range of issues in behavioural research of warnings, this book takes the view that a warning is but one piece of information which we take into account in deciding what - or what not - to do. This view leads the authors to the positions that warnings should be matched in their urgency to the urgency of the situation they warn about. Auditory, visual, written and symbolic warnings are discussed in detail.

Book The Effects of Music Tempo Vs  Percussion Vs  Beat Frequency on Exercise Intensity

Download or read book The Effects of Music Tempo Vs Percussion Vs Beat Frequency on Exercise Intensity written by Amy Kaphingst and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: This study was conducted to determine which component of music; percussion or beat was most influential on exercise intensity while cycling. Methods: Fifteen subjects (10 women, 5 men) performed four trials on a cycle ergometer with different musical conditions. The subjects listened to full music (FM), percussion (P), beat (B), and 0-Tempo (N) with varying tempo during four different 30 minute rides. The control condition was thrown out. Power output (PO), heart rate (HR), and Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) were measured during each ride. Results: The results found no significant differences in PO with FM, P, and B (p=0.236). Heart rate was significantly higher with the FM ride compared to both P and B (p=0.012). There was no significant difference in RPE between the three conditions (p=0.731). PO, HR, and RPE all showed significant increase with the increase in tempo (p

Book Impact of Slow and Fast Tempo Music on Cardiovascular Efficiency

Download or read book Impact of Slow and Fast Tempo Music on Cardiovascular Efficiency written by Reynolds Griffen and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While listening to music your body undergoes changes that can be attributed to the tempo of the music. During exercise your body goes through changes in the sympathetic/parasympathetic nervous system. Music has shown to have effects on these systems at rest but the literature is limited in what happens to the body when listening to slow or fast tempo music while exercising. With this, what is better to listen to while working, out fast or slow music? This study looks to try and find an answer to this. Participants were brought in for a baseline session where HR and RPE were recorded at a varying intensity. They were then brought in for two more sessions. One of the sessions slow tempo music was played, the other fast tempo music was played. Results indicated that no real physiological psychological effects were seen with fast or slow tempo music. However, results did show that the enjoyment level of the exercise can be greatly impacted by the addition of music and the tempo of the music. This data concluded that three was no physiological/psychological effects but that the enjoyment levels operating independently of these should be investigated further.
