Providing students with practical, hands-on knowledge, Exercise
Prescription Case Studies for Healthy Populations introduces
readers to situations they are likely to encounter when writing
exercise prescriptions in actual settings. The book focuses on
apparently healthy individuals and includes cases and information
for prescribing exercise for children, adolescents, older adults,
and pregnant women. Students learn about screening, evaluation,
physical fitness testing, clinical exercise testing and
interpretation, metabolic equations, and principles for
cardiorespiratory endurance, resistance exercise, flexibility
exercise, and special considerations. The final chapter presents
comprehensive case studies that outline the full process from
initial screenings to the writing of a targeted exercise
prescription. The revised first edition has been updated to align
with American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) guidelines,
specifically those relating the cutoff guidelines for risk factors
such as cholesterol, high blood pressure, etc. The names of tests
and exercise prescription lengths have been adjusted accordingly.
Exercise Prescription Case Studies for Healthy Populations features
content that prepares students for a meaningful career after
graduation and helps them study for the ACSM Exercise Physiologist
Certified (EP-C) certification. It is ideal for courses in exercise
science and physiology.
