Study Notes

Personal Safety Protocol During Moderate-Vigorous Physical Activity (MVPA)

  • Goal of the lesson: enumerate, apply, and appreciate personal safety protocols during MVPA

  • Four factors in creating a personal safety protocol:

    • Knowledge and awareness: recognize potential hazards and take steps to prevent accidents (e.g., don't plug electrical devices with wet hands)
    • Ability: realistically judge your and teammates' abilities and skill levels (e.g., avoid stunts if you're not capable)
    • State of mind: be aware of your own and teammates' condition (tiredness, distress, substance use)
    • Environmental conditions: consider environmental hazards (e.g., a wet floor)
  • Conditions to avoid during MVPA:

    • Dehydration: excessive water loss through perspiration, urination, or evaporation (normal daily loss ~2.5 liters)
    • Overexertion/Overtraining: excessive training; decrease number of sets/exercises; pace workouts
    • Hyperthermia: dangerously high body temperature (normal = 36.5-37.5°C); caused by exercising in humid environments; can lead to heat exhaustion or stroke
    • Hypothermia: dangerously low body temperature; loss of coordination, mental confusion; shivering, pale cold skin, slow pulse, slow breathing, drowsiness, clumsiness.

Safety Precautions for MvPAs

  • Fluid replacement: drink 16-20 ounces of fluid 2 hours before exercising, and 8 ounces 15-30 minutes before; sip 4-6 ounces every 15-20 minutes during exercise; drink enough water to replenish what's lost after activity.

  • Tips when exercising during hot weather:

    • gradually increase exercise intensity and duration as you acclimate;
    • drink 2 cups of fluids 2 hours before and 4-8 ounces every 10-15 minutes during exercise
    • wear light-colored, breathable clothing
    • take frequent rest breaks in the shade;
    • stop if you feel uncomfortable and recognize heat disorder signs
  • Tips when exercising during cold weather:

    • Dress warmly in layers
    • Avoid staying out too long in cold conditions

Important Guidelines for MVPA

  • Warming up: crucial to prepare the body for activity; perform before strenuous activity

  • Fluid replacement: drink enough water before, during, and after physical activity

  • Cooling down: gradual reduction in activity level for 5-10 minutes allows heart rate and breathing to return to normal levels.

  • Stretching: improve flexibility; stretch before and after; hold stretches for at least 10 seconds; breathe slowly and easily
