Endurance and Wellness
 Consistent participation in exercise is necessary
to improve health status.
 70% of the American population is either
inactive or not active enough for physical
activity to improve their health.
 The benefit outcomes of regular exercise for
older people include an increse in energy, a
favorable change in body composition, an
increase in muscular strength and endurance ,
increase metabolism, and significant
improvements of cardiovascular and
musculoskeletal helath—Higher quality life and
longevity!
How much physical
activity do we need?

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
recommended 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical
activity daily for yongsters ages 6-19

The Institute of Medicine issued an exercise recommendation
of 60 minutes of brisk physical activity per day.

Brisk exercise is defined as walking 4 mph ( 15 minute mile)

The American College of Sports Medicine recommends 30
minutes a day.

The number of physically inactive people exceeds the
combined totals of those who smoke, are hypertensive, and
have high serum cholesterol.
Which recommendation
is right?
 They all are !
 They are all geared towards different
populations.
 30 minutes a day will make only minimum
contributions to weight loss, hence the
recommendation of 60 minutes a day.
Promoting regular
exercise for the general
public should be an
important priority!
 The number of physically inactive people
exceeds the combined totals of those who
smoke, are hypertensive, and have high
serum cholesterol.

TYPE
FREQUENCY
 (How Often?)
 Recommended days of week of aerobic
exercise is dependent on the intensity of
the workouts.
* A range of 3-5 days a week is most often
recommended.
Intensity
 (How Hard)
 Intensity refers to the degree of vigorousness
of a given exercise session.
 To improve cardiorespiratory endurance the
heart rate must reach a range of 55%-90% of
your maximum heart rate.
Calculating Maximum
Heart Rate
Max Heart Rate = 206.9-(0.67 x your age)
 After you have calculated your maximum
Heart Rate you can calculate your target
heart rate for exercise can be calculated.
Calculating your THR
 Heart Rate max x 70% (.70 of MHR) +/-5
 A 20 year old person
 Max Heart Rate = 194

x .70
____________________
136 +/- 5 beats
Target Heart Rate Zone = 131-141 beats
per minute
Taking Your Pulse
 Want to be able to take your pulse quickly
and accurately during exercise.
 Radial Artery / or Carotid Artery
 Use your first two fingers to find your pulse
 Count the number of beats for 10 seconds
and multiply by 6
 The TALK TEST,
Time
 Duration ( How Long)
 The duration of the exercise session is
inversely proportionate ti the intensity of the
exercise session.
 Intensity is the most important consideration
for the development of physical fitness.
 But reducing intensity and increasing
frequency and duration are the safest and
most beneficial for novice exercisers to
attain physical fitness and health
enhancement.
Type
 Type of Activity/ Exercise Modality
 Select aerobic activities or other activities
that you enjoy!
Progression, Overload,
Specificity
 Overload involves subjecting the body to
unaccustomed stress.
 Progression involves deciding when the
exerciser is ready for the added challenge,
workload is only increased when the
exerciser feels that they are ready.
 Specificity of training suggests that the body
adapts according to the types of stress that
are placed upon it.
Building muscular
strength & endurance
 Resistance training is the only type of
exercise capable of slowing and possibly
reversing , declines in muscle mass, bone
density and strength.
 All muscles respond to physiological law of
use and disuse. “ Use it or lose it”
Benefits of resistance
training:

Increases muscle mass

Decreases fat content

Implications for weight loss

Heavy resistance training and circuit weight training have the
potential to improve cardiorespiratory endurance by an average of 6%

Improves posture

Stronger more stable joints

Make daily life easier

Improve arthritis

Produce synovial fluid
Benefits continued:
 Increased bone density
 Improve self esteem
 Improve self confidence
 Improve body image
Anaerobic exercise:
 Without oxygen
 High intensity physical activity
 Examples:
 Sprinting 100 yards
 Lifting heavy weights
 Running up 2-3 fligths of stairs
Muscular Strength
 Is the maximum force that a muscle or
muscle group can exert in a single
contraction.
 Developed through progressive resistance
training
 best developed by lifting heavier loads a
few times until fatigued
 Produces larger gains than lifting lighter
loads many times until fatigued
Strength Training /Good
for everyone
 Older adults:
 Muscle atrophy
 Result of Inappropriate physical activity
 Over 60 loses 1-2% of muscle strength per
year
 Good news-response to training
 Power training is best
Strength training for
youth:

Accumulating evidence supporting resistance training for
youth

Resistance training for youth is strongly supported

Youth are prepubertal youngsters to age 18

Strength increases of 30-50 % in 8-12 weeks

Gains a result of nuerological gains, coordination and learning

Improves strength and endurance

Bone density & weight control, cardiorespiratory system

Enhance sports skills and motor skills

More resistant to injuries
Youth resistance training
guidelines:

Should be developed and supervised by qualified
professionals

Should focus on proper technique instead of the
amount lifted

Gradually increase resistance as strength improves

Range from 6-15 repetititions per exercise

Should be varied to keep it fresh

Resistance training is safe and beneficial for youth of
both sexes when guidelines are followed.
Free Weights vs
Machines
 Yield some flexibility
 Exercises selected can stimulate movements
required by sports or life ( Functional)
 Supporting and stabilizing muscles
 Inexpensive and versatile
 Don’t take up much space/ can be done at
home
Circuit Resistance
Training:
 Develops fitness components simultaneously
 Circuit consists of 8-15 exercises
 Move from station to station with little to no rest/
:30 at most
 Perform 15-45 second bout of activity
completing between 8-20 repetitions
 Circuit can be repeated 2-3 times for 30-50
minutes
 Challenging versatils and fun

Muscular Endurance
 Is the application of repeated muscular force
against a submaximal resistance.
 Developed by many repetitions against lighter
resistance
 Rest periods are short ( :90 seconds or less)
 Research shows that muscular endurance is best
improved by performing exercises with loads
that can be lifted 20x or more
 Can also improve strength if done until failure

Keep a Daily Training
Log
 You know which exercises you performed and
the amount of weight that you used
 You know the number of reps that you
completed and the number of sets
 Provides an objective account of your
improvement
 Provides an accurate history
 It’s a motivating device that provides objective
feedback about your improved performance
Improving Flexibility:
 Planned, deliberate and regularly
performed sets of exercises designed to
progressively increase the range of motion
iof a joint or series of joints.
 Flexibility= defined as the range of motion in
a joint or a series of joints.
 Joint make up= muscles, ligaments, tendons
(connective tissues)
 All respond to stretching, developing
flexibility
Benefits of flexibility:
 Reduction of stress and tension
 Muscle relaxation
 Improved fitness, posture, and symmetry
 Relief of muscle cramps
 Relief of muscle soreness
 Prevention of injury
 Reduced frequency of injury
 Return to full range of motion after injury
When to stretch:
 Warm up
 Cool down
 Stretching should only occur after the
muscles have been warmed up
 Most effective after resistance or aerobic
training
stretching guidelines:

Warm up for a few minutes before stretching

Stretch to the point of mild discomfort

Do not stretch to the point of pain

Hold each stretch for 15-30 seconds

Breathe rhythmically and continuosly

Move slowly from position to position

Perform each stretch 4 times

Stretch after a workout

Perform stretching exercises 5-6 times a week
Types of stretching:
 Static Stretching= involves slowly moving to
desired positions, holding them for 15-30
seconds and then slowly releasing them.
 Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitiation
(PNF) =requires a partner and includes a
combination of passive stretching and
muscle contractions. (partner stretching)
 Ballistic stretching uses dynamic movements
or repetitve bouncing motions to stretch
muscles.
Stretching routine
 Neck Stretch (tilt, yes, no)
 Shoulder stretch (arms over)
 Kneeling chest and shoulder stretch
 Crossed legs back stretch
 Groin stretch (butterfly)
 Laying quadricep stretch
 Seated hamstring stretch
 Calf and achilles tendon stretch
Preventing back and
neck pain
 Sedentary lifestyle contribute to back and neck
pain
 Occupations that require you to stand a long
time
 Occupatins that require you to sit for a long time
 Repetitive strain injuries=when repeated stress is
placed on some part of the body
 Lower back pain affects 80-90% of the
population at some point in their lives
Causes of lower back
pain:

Excess body weight

Weak abdominal muscles

Weak and inflexible back muscles

Weak and inflexible hamstring muscles

Poor posture

Cigarette smoking



Diseases- osteoperosis / osteoarthritis
Tips for preventing back
pain:

If you sit or stand in one place for along time- walk
around a few minutes or do some stretching exercises

Place one foot on a small stool for a few minutes at a
time , and then the other

Pillow behind your back while driving

Develop abdominal muscles

Stretch the back muscles and hamstrings 3 times a
week
