Movement Studies 2011

Learning Outcomes Following this session and appropriate independent study you should be able to: Prescribe, justify and modify a range of different types of exercises. Identify and correct substitute movements Identify and implement suitable strategies to help motivation and to aid adherence and compliance

Designing Exercise Programmes When designing an exercise programme consider; Pathology Person (age, personality – psychology) Needs - aspirations Environment Physiological processes Principles of training

Adherence To increase patient adherence to a programme consider: Goals Patient factors: age, sex, socio-economics, fear, self- efficacy, support, self motivation Programme factors: personnel, education, attention, group dynamics, logistics

Exercise Prescription Exercise prescription is based on physiological principles and laws of training and modified by clinical findings. Pain Underlying medical conditions – diabetes, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, psychological factors etc. Safety

Recommendations for Physical Activity Guidelines for healthy adults under age 65 Basic recommendations from American College of Sports Medicine (2011):American College of Sports Medicine Consider: Cardiorespiratory exercise Muscular fitness strength endurance power Flexibility

Cardiorespiratory exercise Do moderately intense cardio minutes a day, five days a week Or vigorous-intensity cardio for a minimum of 20 minutes on three days each week.

Muscular Fitness Strength – ability of a muscle to produce force Maximum strength – force generated in a single maximum voluntary muscle action Strength endurance – force generated for sustained or repeated muscle actions against a sub-maximal resistance

Muscular Strength - Resistance exercises For each of the major muscle groups: No. - 8 to 10 strength-training exercises Reps per set Sets per muscle group Rest between sets 2-3mins Freq - 2/3times per week. Intensity moderate to hard ie % 1RM Rest 48 hrs (min) between sessions

Muscular endurance Reps 15 – 20 per set Sets not to exceed 2 Intensity Light to moderate ie <50% 1RM Rest 48 hrs (min) between sessions

Flexibility exercises Stretches for each of the major muscle groups Freq - Minimum of 2x per week Stretch - hold s Reps 2-4
