Impact of CVD-U.S. Directly related to 33.6% of deaths Cause 1 in 3 deaths
Good News! Between 1997 and 2007, death rates from CVD declined 27.8% Due to = change lifestyles, and medical advances in diagnosis and treatments
Cardiovascular -Cardio= heart -Vascular= blood vessels
Arteries Vessels that carry blood AWAY from the heart
Veins Vessels that carry blood TOWARDS the heart
Capillaries smallest extensions of the vascular system
The heart 4-chambered pump Atria= upper chambers Ventricles=Lower chambers Septum=divides right and left side of heart
Septum divides right and left side of heart
Ventricles Lower chambers
Atria Upper chambers
Heart Attack AKA ***MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION*** deceased coronary arteries
Blood Average adult= 5 quarts of blood donates only 1 pint
**Functions of Blood** -Transportation -Regulation of water content -Maintain appropriate pH balance of body fluids -Regulation of body temperature -Prevention of blood loss -Protection against toxins and microorganisms
Cardiovascular Risk Factors Increased likelihood Attributer a person has or will be exposed too
Risk factors you can not change Could encourage you to make a serious commitment to the risk factors you can chance
Increasing Age Heart disease develops gradually Rare in 20s and 30s 81% of heart attacks = age 65+
Male Gender Higher risk than females before 55 Hormone estrogen = protection After menopause = similar rates
Heredity Genetic Predisposition As a group, African Americans are at increased risk for high blood pressure
Risk Factors You Can Change Cigarette Smoking and Second Smoke Smokers = 2-4x risk of heart attack risk 2nd hand smoke = 30% risk of heart attack death Former smokers (Pack or less a day)= within 3 years, same years as a nonsmoker

Exercise: -subcategory of physical activity -planned structured repetitive purposive -objective = improve or maintain physical fitness
exercise trends: -weekends vs. weekdays -school year vs. out of school -activities you enjoy, do not enjoy, or want to try
results of physical fitness -body systems function at optimal efficiency -energy to meet demands of life without fatigue -capacity to handle unforeseen emergencies
health-related physical fitness 4 components: -cardiorespiratory endurance -muscular fitness (strength and endurance) -flexibility -body composition
surgeon general’s report (1996) -30 minutes = moderate activity per day

ACSM: American College of Sport Medicine ACSM: American College of Sport Medicine
Principles of Training: -Overload: work harder than usual -Specify: targeted for improvement -Reversibility on Regression: “use it or lose it”
Cardiorespiratory Endurance: MOST IMPORTANT -foundation for whole-body fitness -improvement of heart, lung, and blood vessel function -helps body work longer and at greater levels of intensity -*aerobic: with oxygen
Cardiorespiratory Endurance: MOST IMPORTANT Continued -anaerobic: without oxygen -intensity = 64-91% of max heart rate (MHR) -Duration 20-90 minutes -mode = vigorous rhythmic and continuous
Maximum Heart Rate = 220 – your age Maximum Heart Rate = 220 – your age
Perceived Exertion: an experienced ‘excersior’ can tell wen they’re in their target heart rate zone Perceived Exertion: an experienced ‘excersior’ can tell wen they’re in their target heart rate zone
3 parts to a workout warm-up workout cool-down
Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Endurance -reduction in resting heart rates -improved heart efficiency -increased rest for the hart between beats -increased oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood
Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Endurance Continued -improved exercise performance on timed tests -improved blood lipid profile -improved body fat percentage -increased lean body mass -firmer muscles
Muscular Fitness -muscular strength (overload principle) = more weight -muscular endurance = more reps -2-4 sets of 8-10 reps using major muscle groups (2-3 days per week)
Benefits of Strength Training -weight control/weight gain/appearance -energy -athletic performance -injury prevention -bone strength -flexibility -psychological benefits
Benefits of Flexibility -decrease risk of injury -counteracts age-related declines -decreases aces and pains -increases the ability to move freely
Guidelines for flexibility -warm up before stretching -use stretching as a preparation for activity
