Recognition of persons with clinically significant disease(s) or conditions who should participate in a community-based exercise program b. Detection of individuals at increased risk for disease because of age, symptoms, and/or risk factors who should undergo a medical evaluation and exercise testing before initiating an exercise program or increasing the frequency and intensity of their current program c. Identification of individuals with medical contraindications for exclusion from exercise programs until those conditions have been abated or are under control d. Recognition of persons with clinically significant disease(s) or conditions who should participate in a medically supervised exercise program a. Recognition of persons with clinically significant disease(s) or conditions who should participate in a community-based exercise program Which of the following is a definition of moderate risk? a. Individuals who do not have signs/symptoms of or diagnosed cardiovascular, pulmonary, and/or metabolic disease, and have less than two (i.e., 2) CVD risk factors b.
