Chapter Three Exercising Safely

The Warm-up Perform low intensity movements similar to the activity that you will be performing…

The Cool-down Allow 5-10 minutes for the cool down to allow the heart rate and breathing rate to return to normal. Stretching after a workout is also a good idea.

Selecting Footwear ä Type of activity ä Your foot type ä Shoes that fit ä Type of shoe construction

Exercising in Hot Weather ä Never wear rubber suits ä Drink plenty of fluids ä Avoid using salt tablets ä Workout at the coolest part of the day ä Cut down your workouts ä Dress in light colored, loose-fitting clothing ä Wear a hat or visor

Fluid Replacement ä Drink water before you start exercising ä While exercising, drink a cup of water every 15 minutes for a total of one quart per hour ä After exercise, continue drinking a cup of water every 15 minutes

HEAT-RELATED DISORDERS HEAT CRAMPS Usually not a serious problem but can be very uncomfortable. The affected muscle will contract violently & uncontrollably Symptoms: thirst, nausea, clammy skin, chills and / or increased heart rate. FIRST AID PROCEDURES: 1. Stop the activity and massage the muscle. 2. Replace fluids by drinking ½ a cup of H2O every 15 minutes. 3. Move to a shaded area.

HEAT-RELATED DISORDERS Heat Exhaustion A body condition usually caused by lack of fluids and excessive heat. It is often caused by failure to drink fluids and replace those lost through sweating. Symptoms: Pale skin, heavy perspiration, nausea, and rapid shallow breathing. FIRST AID PROCEDURES: 1. Stop physical activity, move to a cool shaded area, apply wet towels 2. Drink large amounts of fluids ( H2O ). 3. Seek medical attention.

HEAT-RELATED DISORDERS HEATSTROKE: A response to heat that results in high body temperature. When a lot of H2O has been lost, the brain shuts down the sweating mechanism to prevent additional H2O loss. Heatstroke can be LIFE-THREATNING!! SYMPTOMS: Hot, dry skin, very high body temp. sudden collapse and possible unconsciousness.

HEATSTROKE FIRST AID PROCEDURES: 1. Seek medical attention Apply ice packs to the head. 3. Remove clothing & apply ice, cold H2O, wet towels or alcohol to cool the body.
