This book was released on 1992 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a 10-week step aerobic training program on the maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) of college-aged women (mean age - 19.4 yrs). Fifty apparently healthy females between the ages of 18 and 25 years participated in the training study. Subjects in the experimental group exercised 3 times per week for 10 weeks. The average heart rate maintained during the training was 150 bpm which represented 76% of HRmax. Twenty-one experimental group Ss and 29 control group Ss performed a maximal treadmill test to volitional exhaustion prior to and upon completion of the study. The variables analyzed included resting HR (bpm), body weight (lbs), rating of perceived exertion (RPE), treadmill run time, absolute VO2max (L/min), relative VO2max (ml/kg/min), VEmax (BTPS) (L/min), RERmax, and HRmax (bpm). The results showed significant (p .05) between-group differences in mean treadmill run time, absolute VO2max, relative V02max, HRmax, and VEmax. The experimental group had increases in treadmill run time (33.1%), absolute VO2max (11.5%), relative VO2max (11.7%), HRmax (l.O%), and VEmax (6.7%) which were significantly greater than the control group. No significant (p .05) between-group differences were observed in body weight, RERmax, RPE, and resting HR.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a 10-week step aerobic training program on the body composition of college-aged women (mean age - 19.6 yrs). Forty-six apparently healthy females between the ages of 18 and 25 years participated in the study. Subjects in the experimental group exercised 3 times per week for 10 weeks. The average intensity maintained during exercise was 150 bpm which represented 76% of HRmax. Eighteen experimental group Ss and 23 control group Ss were hydrostatically weighed and had maximal buttocks, thigh, and calf girths measured prior to and at the end of the study. The variables analyzed included body weight, inasimal buttocks girth, alasimal thigh girth, maximal calf girth, residual volume, lean body mass, Eat weight, hotly density, and percent body fat. The results showed a significant (p -05) decrease for the experimental group in maximal thigh girth (1.0 cm). No significant (p .05) between-group differences were observed for body weight, maximal buttocks girth, mnximal calf girth, body density, LBM, fat weight, or percent body fat.
Download or read book The Effects of a Seven week Aqua Step Aerobic Training Program on Aerobic Capacity of College aged Females written by C. Gabrielle Gaspard and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-one apparently healthy females between the ages of 19 and 29 participated in the study. Subjects in the experimental group (n = 12) exercised 4 times per week for 4 weeks. Training heart rates progressed from 78-75% of HRmax during week 1 to 80-90% HRmax during week 7. Training heart rates during the aerobic portion of the class averaged 82% of HRmax. Subjects in the control group (n = 9) did not participate in a regular exercise program. Each subject performed a maximal treadmill test to volitional exhaustion prior to and upon completion of the study. The variables analyzed included body weight (kg), absolute VO2max (L/lmin), relative V02max (ml/kg/min), HRmax (bpm), VEmax (BPTS) (L/min), RPE, and RERmax. The experimental group had increases in absolute V02max (7.7%), relative VQ2max (7.0%), and VEmax (11.7%) which were significantly greater than the control group from pre- to post testing. No significant (p>-.0 5) between-group changes were observed in body weight, HRmax, RPE, and RER from pre- to posttesting. It appears that participation in an Aqua Step aerobic training program is an effective way of improving aerobic capacity in college-aged females.

Devi Vara Prasad and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health is the general condition of a person in all aspects. It is also a level of functional and/or metabolic efficiency of an organism, often implicitly human. At the time of the creation of the World Health Organization (WHO), in 1948, health was defined as being "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity". In 1986, the WHO, in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, said that health is "a resource for everyday life, not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities." Overall health is achieved through a combination of physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being, which, together is commonly referred to as the Health Triangle.Good health means that all organs of the body are working efficiently. The important proverb is, 'Health is wealth', 'if health is lost everything is lost', and is realized more in its absence than by its presence.

This book was released on 2017-09-06 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) has long been at the forefront of aiding aspiring and established exercise professionals in working with clients from special populations, such as children, aging adults, and clients with temporary or permanent physical or cognitive conditions and disorders. Clients with special conditions often require modifications to general exercise recommendations, specific exercise facility design, and particular training equipment. They may also require exercise programming supervised by exercise professionals with specialized training. NSCA's Essentials of Training Special Populations will help exercise professionals design customized programs for clients with unique considerations. It is an ideal preparatory resource for those seeking to become an NSCA Certified Special Population Specialist (CSPS) as well as professionals who work in collaboration with health care professionals to assess, educate, and train special population clients of all ages regarding their health and fitness needs. Editor Patrick L. Jacobs, who has extensive experience as both a practitioner and scholar, and a team of qualified contributors provide evidence-based information and recommendations on particular training protocols for a breadth of conditions, including musculoskeletal conditions, cardiovascular conditions, immunologic disorders, and cancer. The book discusses the benefits of exercise for clients with special conditions and the exercise-related challenges they often face, as well as the importance of safe and effective health and fitness assessments for these clients. With an emphasis on published research, NSCA's Essentials of Training Special Populations reviews the pathology and pathophysiology of numerous conditions and disorders, including the known effects of exercise on those conditions and disorders. Each chapter includes tables that provide exercise recommendations for specific conditions, complete with training modifications, precautions, and contraindications. Also included are case studies with practical examples of the application of these population-specific recommendations, as well as a summary of the commonly prescribed medications and their potential effects on exercise responses and adaptations. NSCA's Essentials of Training Special Populations includes a number of learning aids designed to assist the reader. Chapter objectives appear at the beginning of each chapter, study questions are at the end of each chapter, key points in easy-to-find boxes summarize important concepts for the reader, and key terms are identified and defined throughout the text. Recommended readings are also provided for readers wishing to learn more about a topic in general or specifically in preparation for the CSPS exam. For instructors using NSCA's Essentials of Training Special Populations in a higher education course or for a training symposium, ancillary materials are available to make class preparation easy. The materials are designed to complement the content and assist in its instruction. The ancillaries consist of an instructor's guide, test package, and presentation package plus image bank.
