Book Relationship Between a Two Mile Run and Maximal Oxygen Uptake

Download or read book Relationship Between a Two Mile Run and Maximal Oxygen Uptake written by Robert P. Mello and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between a maximal effort two-mile run for time and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) as measured by treadmill running. Subjects were forty-four males (aged 20-51) and seventeen females (aged 20-37) of various fitness and activity levels. All subjects performed a timed two mile run and a treadmill running test for maximal oxygen uptake. The coefficient of correlation between the treadmill maximal test and the two mile run test for all subjects was -0.91. Separate regression analyses for male and female data also displayed significant correlations (r sub m -0.91, r sub f -0.89). The addition fo such variables as age, height, weight, and % body fat did not improve the predictability of the equations. However, inclusion of body weight in the male equation did increase its predictive accuracy (SEE = 3.31 to 2.69). The high degree of the other. This study confirms the usefulness and validity of a timed 2 mile run test to indicate the level of aerobic fitness capacity when the test is properly supervised and the subjects are well-motivated. Keywords: Running performance, Predicted aerobic capacity, Maximal performance.

Book Fitness Measures and Health Outcomes in Youth

Download or read book Fitness Measures and Health Outcomes in Youth written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-12-10 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical fitness affects our ability to function and be active. At poor levels, it is associated with such health outcomes as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Physical fitness testing in American youth was established on a large scale in the 1950s with an early focus on performance-related fitness that gradually gave way to an emphasis on health-related fitness. Using appropriately selected measures to collected fitness data in youth will advance our understanding of how fitness among youth translates into better health. In Fitness Measures and Health Outcomes in Youth, the IOM assesses the relationship between youth fitness test items and health outcomes, recommends the best fitness test items, provides guidance for interpreting fitness scores, and provides an agenda for needed research. The report concludes that selected cardiorespiratory endurance, musculoskeletal fitness, and body composition measures should be in fitness surveys and in schools. Collecting fitness data nationally and in schools helps with setting and achieving fitness goals and priorities for public health at an individual and national level.
