Dear all,
This ppt includes the acute and chronic effect of exercise on different body system which includes musculoskeletal systems, cardiovascular systems, respiratory system, endocrive system, psychological effects etc. I hope this is helpful for you.
Thank you
This PPT share the principles used in exercise prescription and the parameters which should be kept in mind while prescribing and progressing the exercise regimen
Aerobic means "with oxygen," and anaerobic means "without oxygen." Anaerobic exercise is the type where you get out of breath in just a few moments, like when you lift weights for improving strength, when you sprint, or when you climb a long flight of stairs.

Cardio and muscle endurance
Aerobic exercise (also known as cardio) is physical exercise of low to high intensity that depends primarily on the aerobic energy-generating process. Aerobic literally means "relating to, involving, or requiring free oxygen", and refers to the use of oxygen to adequately meet energy demands during exercise via aerobic metabolism. Generally, light-to-moderate intensity activities that are sufficiently supported by aerobic metabolism can be performed for extended periods of time

Exercise Training Recommendation for Individual with Chronic Stable Angina an...nihal Ashraf
For patients with cardiovascular disease, exercise is a critically important intervention and should be prioritized to slow the progression of disease and prevent or reverse physical deconditioning.
Exercise prescription for health and fitness.pptxAvaniAkbari
An effective exercise prescription for health and fitness involves customizing a plan based on personal goals, fitness level, health condition, and preferences. It usually includes a mix of aerobic exercises (like walking, jogging, cycling), strength training (using body weight or weights), flexibility work (such as yoga or stretching), and balance exercises (like Tai Chi). These activities enhance cardiovascular health, build muscle strength, improve flexibility, and prevent injuries. Adjusting the frequency, intensity, duration, and type of exercises gradually over time, while considering individual capabilities and health, is crucial for optimal benefits. Seeking guidance from a healthcare professional or certified trainer ensures a safe and tailored program to achieve fitness goals effectively.
Cardiac Rehabilitation has been defined as:
Coordinated, multifaceted interventions designed to optimize a cardiac patient’s physical, psychological, and social functioning so that they may, by their own efforts, resume and maintain as normal a place as possible in the community
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a comprehensive intervention based on a thorough patient assessment followed by patient tailored therapies that include, but are not limited to, exercise training, education, and behavior change, designed to improve the physical and psychological condition of people with chronic respiratory disease and to promote the long-term adherence to health-enhancing behaviors”

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Introduction
Fitness Professionals frequently encounter clients with
special needs and health concerns.
Documentation of client sessions, health status, and
progress is especially important.
In general, clients with chronic conditions should follow a
low- to moderate-intensity exercise program that
progresses gradually.
Communication with healthcare professionals is critical
when working with special populations.
3. Cardiovascular Disorders
Coronary artery disease (CAD)
– A narrowing of the coronary arteries that supply the heart muscle
with blood and oxygen
– Caused by an inflammatory response within the arterial walls
resulting from an initial injury and the deposition of plaque and
cholesterol
Manifestations of atherosclerosis include:
– Angina
– Heart attack
– Stroke
4. Exercise Guidelines for CAD
• Low-intensity cardio exercise gradually progressed to moderate-intensity exercise utilizing
interval-type training.
• Isometric exercises should be avoided.
• The resistance-training program should utilize one set of 12 to 15 repetitions of eight to 10
exercises.
Mode
• Begin at an intensity of RPE of 4 /10 or at an HR 20 to 30 beats over resting heart rate.
• Clients who are already exercising may gradually be progressed to an intensity of RPE of
6/10
Intensity
• 30 minutes or more of continuous or interval training, plus additional time for warm-up and
cool-down activities.
Duration
• Three to five days per week of aerobic training and two days per week of resistance training.
Frequency
5. Hypertension
High blood pressure
– Having a constant systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥140 mmHg or
diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥90 mmHg
Exercise, weight loss, sodium reduction, and reduced fat and
alcohol intake are lifestyle therapies for hypertension.
6. Exercise Guidelines for Hypertension
• Cardio exercise should be the primary exercise mode.
• Isometric exercise should be avoided.
• Weight training should feature muscular endurance (12+ reps), as in a circuit-training
program.
Mode
• An RPE of 6/10 is the preferred exercise intensity.
• When using heart rate, the target should be set at the lower end of the heart-rate range (60to
65%).
Intensity
• Gradual warm-up and cool-down periods lasting longer than five minutes
• Exercise duration up to 40 to 60 minutes per session
Duration
• Four to seven days per week
Frequency
7. Diabetes
Hyperglycemia
Type 1 diabetes
– Body’s immune system destroys pancreatic beta cells that are responsible for
producing insulin
– Regular insulin delivered by injections or a pump to regulate blood glucose levels is
required
– 5 to 10% of all adult diagnosed cases of diabetes
Type 2 diabetes
– Initially presents as insulin resistance
– As the demand for insulin rises, the pancreas gradually loses its ability to produce it
– Accounts for 90 to 95% of all diagnosed cases
– Approximately 75% of people with type 2 diabetes are obese or have a history of
obesity
Gestational diabetes
– Occurs during approximately 7% of all pregnancies
– Women who have experienced gestational diabetes have a 40 to 60% chance of
developing diabetes over the subsequent five to 10 years.
8. Exercise Guidelines for Diabetes
• General cardio exercises are appropriate.
• Utilize gradual warm-up and cool-down periods.
• Twice-a-week resistance training is appropriate and beneficial, using 8to 10 exercises at eight
to 12+ repetitions.
• Clients should monitor blood glucose before and after exercise.
Mode
• Clients should train at a moderate intensity, such as an RPE of 6/10
Intensity
• Clients with type 1 diabetes should gradually work up to 30 minutes or more per session.
• 40 to 60 minutes is recommended for individuals with type 2 diabetes.
Duration
• Five to six days per week
• Some clients may need to start out with several shorter daily sessions.
Frequency
9. Asthma
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by:
– Shortness of breath
– Wheezing
– Coughing
– Chest tightness
The inflammatory response is typically set off by environmental
triggers.
Approximately 80% of people with asthma experience asthma attacks
or increased symptoms during and/or after physical activity [exercise-
induced asthma (EIA)].
Most people with controlled asthma will benefit from regular exercise
and can follow exercise guidelines for the general population.
A client with asthma should be cleared by his or her physician prior to
beginning an exercise program and always have their inhaler with
them during exercise.
10. Exercise Guidelines for
Asthma
• General cardio and resistance exercise to match
goals.
• For some clients, upper-body cardio exercises may
not be appropriate because of
the higher ventilation demands
Mode
• Low- to moderate-intensity dynamic exercise. RPE
6/10 or 60% of MHR
• Begin easy and gradually increase intensity during
the session
Intensity
• Gradually progress total exercise time to 30 minutes
or more
• Encourage longer, more gradual warm-up and cool-
down periods (10 minutes or more)
Duration
• Three to five days per week
• Some clients may benefit from intermittent exercise
(two or three 10-minute sessions, or interval training).
Frequency
11. Cancer
Cancer is a group of diseases in which abnormal cells divide without
control.
Cancer rates may dramatically increase over the next decade due to:
– The aging population
– Continued population growth
– Rapidly improving detection technology
Malignant versus benign cells
Physical activity can help protect active people from acquiring some
cancers
The goal of exercise in the treatment of cancer is to:
– Maintain and improve cardiovascular conditioning
– Prevent musculoskeletal deterioration
– Reduce symptoms such as nausea and fatigue
– Improve the client’s mental health outlook and overall quality of
life
12. Exercise Guidelines for Cancer
• Weightbearing exercise is appropriate
• Low-impact or non-weightbearing aerobic activities are secondary options.
Mode
• Light- to moderate-intensity exercise (RPE of 4-6/10 / 60% of MHR)
• Clients in remission and with good conditioning may be able to increase their exercise intensity
levels.
• Focus more on duration and consistency than intensity.
Intensity
• Low-functioning clients may begin with multiple short bouts of activity.
• Progress to 10-minute intermittent bouts and gradually build to 30 to 40 minutes of accumulated
exercise
Duration
• A cardiovascular, flexibility, and balance program can be performed on a daily basis.
• Resistance training can be performed two to three times a week, with at least a full 24 hours of rest
between sessions.
Frequency
13. Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is characterized by
low bone mass
– Results in structural weakness
and increased risk for fracture
The goals of treatment are to
retain bone mineral and decrease
the risk of falls and fractures.
– Exercise is an important part
of the prevention and
treatment plan for
osteoporosis.
14. Exercise Guidelines for Osteoporosis
• Weight bearing exercises and resistance training
• Exclude any jarring, high-impact activities such as running.
• Activities that promote balance and coordination should also be included.
Mode
• Weight bearing activities are best performed at high intensities that promote high strain and stimulate
bone adaptation.
• Progress up to a level so that resistance training activities are preformed at 8 Rep Max
Intensity
• Duration of loading activities can be short (five to 10 minutes)
• For cardiovascular exercise, clients with osteoporosis can follow the age-appropriate guidelines for
the general public.
Duration
• Multiple bouts of bone-loading exercises
• Provide for adequate rest between exercise bouts
• For cardiovascular exercise, clients can follow the age-appropriate guidelines for the general public.
Frequency
15. Low-back Pain
Chronic back pain is pain that persists for more than
three months.
A number of lifestyle-related factors are associated
with causing or exasperating low-back pain (LBP):
– Physical inactivity
– Being overweight or obese
– Poor posture and sleeping position
– Stress
Exercise is one of the cornerstones of both
the prevention and treatment of LBP.
16. Contraindications for Clients With LBP
Clients with LBP should avoid:
• Unsupported forward flexion
• Twisting at the waist with turned feet, especially when carrying a load
• Lifting both legs simultaneously when in a prone or supine position on
floor
• Rapid movements, such as twisting, forward flexion, or hyperextension
Clients should not be encouraged to “work through the
pain.”
17. Exercise Guidelines for
LBP
• Walking, stationary biking, and
swimming
• Core strengthening exercises, high rep
(12+) resistance training, and stretching
should also be included
Mode
• Light to moderate intensity is
recommended initially RPE 6/10.
• As conditioning improves and symptoms
dissipate, progress to moderate to
vigorous activity. RPE 6-8/10
Intensity
• Three to five days per week
• Specific back health exercises may be
performed daily.
Frequency
18. Weight Management
Obesity is defined as an excessive amount of adipose tissue in
relation to lean body mass.
Lifestyle habits contribute to weight gain and obesity,
including:
– Overeating through increased caloric intake
– The proliferation of microwaveable and ready-to-eat high-fat foods
– Less in-home cooking and eating out and on-the-go more often
– Marketing that entices people to choose foods that are higher in calories
and fat
– Low levels of physical activity
– Excessive amounts of time spent doing sedentary activities
Overweight or obese clients seeking weight loss should
accumulate more than 150 minutes of moderate-intensity
exercise each week.
19. Exercise Guidelines for
Weight Management
• Walking, cycling, group exercise
classes, aquatic exercise, and
resistance training
Mode
• Start with low to moderate RPE
6/10 and progress toIntensity
• Be aware of signs that the client
is working too hard
and modify intensity as required
RPE
6-8/10
• Work up to a goal to accumulate
150 to 200 or more minutes
each week
Duration
• Five to six days per week
• Initially, 1 – 2 days per week
may be all that is tolerated
Frequency
20. Exercise Guidelines for Older Adults
• Endurance exercise should be the primary exercise mode
• Weight training that features high repetitions, 12 reps+ (at least initially) and include
exercises that maintain or improve balance
• Active lifestyle and participation in recreational activities
Mode
• Range from low to moderate RPE 6/10
Intensity
• Longer and more gradual warm-up and cool-down periods
• Gradually increase exercise duration to 30 to 60 minutes per session
Duration
• At least five days each week
• Daily exercise of shorter duration may be appropriate initially
Frequency
21. Exercise and Youth
Regular physical activity in children and adolescents is essential to promote
health and fitness.
The primary exercise activities for youth are cardio conditioning, muscle
endurance, and bone strengthening.
The following guidelines help decrease the risk of injury from exercise training
in youth:
• Obtain medical clearance or instructions regarding physical needs.
• Children should be properly supervised and use proper exercise technique at all times.
• Do not allow children to exercise unless the weight-training facility is safe and appropriate
for them.
• Never have children perform single maximal lifts.
• Teach children how to breathe properly during exercise movements.
• Never allow children to use any equipment that is broken or damaged, or that they do not
fit on properly.
• Children should rest for approximately one to two minutes between each exercise.
• Children should have scheduled rest days between each training day.
• Tell children that they need to communicate when they feel tired or fatigued, or when they
have been injured.
