A new addition to the tried and trusted Complete Guide series, The Complete Guide to Teaching Exercise to Special Populations is a vital resource for fitness professionals who prescribe exercise programmes to anyone categorised as belonging to a special group.
Covering a wide range of conditions from osteoporosis, heart conditions, arthritis and back pain, this book provides supervised exercise programmes to suit various needs.
Comprehensive and informative, The Complete Guide to Teaching Exercise to Special Populations is packed with clear photographs and diagrams and covers the condition, diagnosis, treatment as well as an array of practical tips for designing activity programmes.
The book is also a practical reference for exercise professionals who work with clients with various conditions and disorders. Exercise Prescription Case Studies for Special Populations introduces readers to situations they are likely to encounter when writing exercise prescriptions in professional settings.
The text helps students review and synthesize information they've learned in the classroom for practical application. The book focuses on the creation of exercise prescriptions for individuals with chronic diseases, including clients with diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, metabolic syndrome, arthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, and other unique conditions.
The first two chapters focus on pre-exercise screenings, evaluation, and principles of exercise testing and prescription.
Overviews of various diseases and special considerations are presented. Finally, the text features case studies that involved the continuum of information from screenings to writing exercise prescriptions for clients with chronic diseases.
These case studies closely follow the guidelines established by the American College of Sports Medicine, rendering it a valuable resource to help students prepare for the ACSM Certified Clinical Exercise Physiologist exam. Exercise Prescription Case Studies for Special Populations features content that prepares students for a meaningful career after graduation. The text is exemplary for courses in exercise science and physiology.
Chapters focus on strategies related to the frail elderly, osteoporosis, congestive heart failure, obese adults and children, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary disease, asthma, cancer, arthritis, low back pain, hypertension and stroke.
Clinical Exercise Physiology, Fourth Edition With Web Resource, is the most comprehensive guide to the clinical aspects of exercise physiology. The new edition of Plowman and Smith's renowned text continues to the authoritative textbook for teaching Exercise Physiology. Accessible and engaging, the 5th Edition offers coverage of foundational science and critical exercise physiology topics.
Organized by independent units Metabolic, Cardiovascular-respiratory, Neuromuscular-skeletal, and Neuroendocrine-immune this text offers maximum teaching flexibility for faculty and consistent presentation of material for the student.
Sport and exercise physiologists are called upon to carry out physiological assessments that have proven validity and reliability, both in sport-specific and health-related contexts. A wide variety of test protocols have been developed and refined. This book is a comprehensive guide to these protocols and to the key issues relating to physiological testing. Volume I will cover sport-specific testing, and Volume II clinical and exercise testing.
With contributions from many leading specialist physiologists, and covering a wide range of mainstream sports, special populations, and ethical, practical and methodological issues, these volumes represent an essential resource for sport-specific and clinical exercise testing in both research and applied settings. Visit the companion website at: www. Designed for undergraduate course work, this exercise physiology textbook unites research and theory with real-world application so students can easily relate to the concepts being presented.
The unique applied approach fully engages you in discovering how the human body works and responds to exercise. You'll not only gain a solid foundation in exercise physiology concepts, you'll also learn how to apply these concepts on the job to optimize athletic performance and well-being. Moreover, you'll come to understand the vital health benefits of exercise and physical activity for all individuals at all ages, including special populations.
Beginning with basic exercise physiology concepts, the text progressively builds your knowledge by integrating these concepts into practical discussions of nutrition and training. The text stresses a research-based approach, enabling you to locate and evaluate the evidence you need to make good decisions. Numerous examples further underscore the importance of basic concepts and research in addressing real-life challenges in exercise and athletic training.
Exercise science practitioners have access to mountains of research findings, expert opinions, novel techniques, and program plans via blogs, fitness magazines, conference presentations, and peer-reviewed journals.
To facilitate effective practice, practitioners must sift through this information and retain only the best evidence to form a sound base of knowledge. Evidence-Based Practice in Exercise Science: The Six-Step Approach equips readers with the basic skills and competencies for discerning the value of scientific research. Using a methodical approach, students and professionals will learn to identify appropriate evidence to support novel interventions and avoid counterproductive or dangerous information to eliminate ineffective exercise options.
The authors, well-known advocates in the study and application of evidence-based practice in the field of exercise science, take the five-step method of evidence-based practice that has been established in medicine, adapt it specifically for exercise science, and expand it to embrace individuality in exercise training. The content is accessible for students in a variety of courses in exercise science curricula; those seeking certification through professional organizations; and practitioners in the fields of exercise, nutrition, sports medicine, and sport science.
This text is an instruction manual in understanding and applying evidence-based practice. The process is divided into six steps that begin with asking a question and then finding, evaluating, implementing, confirming, and re-evaluating the evidence.
The case studies cover topics including exercise prescription; exercise for special populations; nutrition and supplementation; and exercise devices, equipment, and apparel.
Each case presents a realistic scenario that an exercise practitioner may experience, presents background information, formulates a question for investigation, describes a search of the literature, discusses the findings, and provides a recommendation for practice based on the best current evidence. We will reopen normal support operations starting at p Monday. Victor L. Katch William D. McArdle Frank I.
