ACSM-CEP EXAM || A+ GUARANTEED.
What is the exercise participation health screening process based on? correct answers - the individual's current level of physical activity
- the presence of signs or symptoms and/or known CV, metabolic, or renal disease
- desired exercise intensity
Goals of the ACSM participation health screening process is to identify individuals who: correct answers - who should receive medical clearance before initiating an exercise program or increasing the frequency, intensity, and/or volume of their current program
- individuals with clinically significant disease(s) who may benefit from participating in a medically supervised exercise program
- individuals with medical conditions that may require exclusion from exercise programs until
those conditions are better controlled
2 stage process of screening correct answers - need for medical clearance before initiating or progressing exercise programming is determined using the updated and revised ACSM screening algorithm--> in presence of health care professional
- if indicated during screening, medical clearance should be sought from the appropriate health care provider
What does the screening algorithm do? correct answers classifies individuals who do or do not currently participate in regular exercise
- GOAL: identify those unaccustomed to regular physical exertion b/c exercise may place disproportionate demands on the CV system and increase risk of complications
what is exercise participation? correct answers performing planned, structured PA at least 30 min at moderate intensity on at least 3 days a week for at least the last 3 months
light intensity exercise correct answers 30-39% HRR or VO2R
2-2.9 METS
RPE: 9-11
Mod intensity correct answers 40-59% HRR or VO2R
3-5.9 METS
RPE 12-13
Vigorous intensity correct answers >60% HRR or VO2R
RPE >14
> 6 METS
Risk stratifications for individuals with CVD: LOWEST RISK correct answers - functional capacity > 7 METS Risk stratifications for individuals with CVD: MODERATE risk correct answers - presence of angina or other significant symptoms (unusual SOB, lightheadedness, or dizziness occurring only at high levels of exercise (> 7 METS)
- mild to mod ischemia during exercise testing or ST segment depression < 2 mm from baseline
- functional capacity <5 METS
- Rest ejection fraction 40-49%
Risk stratifications for individuals with CVD: HIGHEST risk correct answers - presence of complex ventricular dysrhythmias during exercise testing or recovery
- presence of angina or other significant symptoms (unusual SOB, light-headedness, dizziness
at low levels of exertion ( < 5 METS during recovery)
FITT-VP correct answers Frequency
Intensity
Time
Type
Volume
Progression
Frequency correct answers moderate-intensity aerobic exercise 5 days a week OR
vigorous aerobic exercise done at least 3 days a week
Intensity correct answers moderate and/or vigorous is recommended for most adults
Time correct answers 30-60 min of purposeful moderate exercise OR
20-60 if vigorous
- <20 min of exercise per day can be beneficial
Type correct answers Regular, purposeful exercise that involves major muscle groups and is continuous and rhythmic
Volume correct answers > 500-1,000 MET-min a week
Pattern correct answers one continuous session per day or in multiple sessions of >10 min
Progression correct answers adjust exercise duration, frequency, and intensity
Progressive overload correct answers to improve CRF, individual must exercise at a level greater than accustomed to induce adaptation --> EP-C should not increase all variables simultaneously; SMALL incremental progression allows the body to adapt--> reduces risk of overuse injuries
Reversibility Principle correct answers The physical benefits of exercise are lost through disuse or inactivity.
