The greatest absolute improvement in health outcomes, specifically longevity, conferred by an increase in exercise dose or habitual physical activity will occur among which of the following patients: (a) A sedentary office worker who begins a 30 min daily walking program, (b) A routine exerciser who meets physical activity recommendations and decides to increase from 150 to 300 min weekly of aerobic activity, or (c) An accomplished triathlete who decides to train for an Ironman-distance triathlon and thereby increases their training load from 10 to 20 h weekly? 4. You want to perform screening and baseline fitness testing with your client. From the list below, what is the recommended order? 1. Submaximal cycle test 2. ESSA screening form 3. Blood pressure 4. Isometric mid-thigh pull test 5. Body composition (i.e. skin folds, girths, BMI) 6. Sit-and-reach 5. Kevin wants to know his VO2max but can’t afford a VO2max test using gas analysis equipment. Kevin asks you to estimate his running VO 2max. a. At maximal effort he is running at 20 km/hr at 4% incline b. What information do you need to calculate %HRR zones? 6. Ryan, is 20 years old, his resting HR 58bpm, and current exercising HR 130bpm cycling at 100 watts. What %HRR is he currently cycling? Calculate 75% and 85% target HRR zone. 7. What are the three phases of the GAS? 8. What are the four elements of the FITT principle? 9. Overload can be manipulated by which two variables? 10. Penny has set the following goal: “To lose weight so I can fit into my birthday dress for my party in November (12 weeks), and get fitter” (a) As a practitioner create a SMART goal for Penny (b) What type of fitness test would be appropriate and why? (c) Write a needs analysis for Penny  11. Create an excel spreadsheet with to automate calculations.
