,Understand the role of a certified clinical exercise physiologist in healthcare - ANS A
healthcare professional who is trained to work with pts with chronic diseases where exercise
training has been shown to be of therapeutic benefit, including but not limited to CVD,
pulmonary disease, and metabolic disorders. CEPs work primarily in a medically supervised
environment that provides a program or service that is directed by a license physician.
Activities of a CEP - ANS They can obtain medical history, administer exercise tests, design
individualized exercise prescriptions, and manage risk factors through health education of
K
clients
Necessary qualifications for a CEP according to the CEPA - ANS A Minimum of a master's
C
degree in exercise physiology, exercise or movement science, or kinesiology and is either
licensed under state law or holds a professional certification from a national organization that is
functionally equivalent to either ACSM CCEP or ACSM registered clinical exercise physiologist
LO
(RCEP)
oAn individual with a bachelors degree in exercise physiology, exercise movement, or exercise
science or kinesiology and certified as an ACSM CCEP is also considered qualified to perform
physiology services.
YC
What is the goal of the Exercise is Medicine (EIM) initiative and how did it begin? - ANS
Started in 2007 by AMA and ACSM with currently 7 regional centers and 43 national centers
Broad vision:
Have health care providers assess every pts level of PA at every clinic visit
D
Determine if the pt is meeting PA guidelines for Americans
Provide pt with brief counseling to help them meet the guidelines and/or refer them to either
U
health care or community- based resources for further PA counseling
Who earns an EIM credential - ANS It is earned by certified Ex professionals (or individuals
ST
with a qualifying university degree), who wish to collaborate with their local health care system
to receive referrals to work with a variety of pts with chronic diseases and outcomes
Know the physical activity guidelines for children and adolescents (cardiovascular and weight
training) - ANS Children and adolescence should accumulate at least 60 minutes a day of
moderate to vigorous PA on at least 5 days/week
Most of PA being moderate to vigorous with vigorous activity specifically included on at least 3
days/week
, Muscular strengthening and bone activities on at least 3 days per week (this counts within the
60 min/day)
meeting guidelines through ambulatory activities for children and adolescents - ANS For
children to meet ambulatory activities requires about 11,000-15,000 steps per day
For adolescents to meet ambulatory activities, they should have about 11,000-12,000 steps per
day
Describe the body composition (FM and FFM) differences that occur during childhood - ANS
With children differences in strength and body size are less profound than later in life
K
Total body mass doubles in size between the ages 6 and 12
C
Skeletal muscle accounts for almost half of total body lean tissue between the ages 6 and 12
Body fat content is higher in girls than boys by age 6-11
LO
Muscle strength increases during childhood but differences between girls and boys do not
emerge until adolescents
Children can demonstrate improved muscle strength and motor and sport specific performance
YC
in response to structured exercise programs but children who are not already involved in a
competitive sport, more generalized PA programs can also improve strength
Strength programs can be safe and effective for child athletes and increased muscle strength
during youth is associated with better health in adulthood
D
Describe the body composition (FM and FFM) differences that occur during adolescents - ANS
During adolescents' girls and boys can achieve similar relative improvements in strength and
performance in response to RT
U
Strength training is effective for improving muscle size and strength for those who are active,
inactive, and overweight
ST
In some adolescents, RT may have benefits on metabolic risk factors such as insulin resistance
or lipids, but those findings have been small and inconsistent
Because of puberty differences between girls and boys become larger
boys add muscle mass total lean mass at a higher rate
Girls have a greater deposition of body fat while boys have a decrease in body fat percentage
during adolescents
Understand the changes in insulin resistance during adolescence - ANS See an increase in
insulin resistance during childhood
