\nQUESTION 1
\n1. For the next section, use the information below to answer questions regarding body composition
\nand health.
\nYou will need the following information and table to answer these questions:
\nQuestions:
\n\u25cf 1. Which of these individuals has the highest BMI, and what is it?
\n\u25cf 2. Who has the highest percent body fat, and what is it for both Siri and Brozek equations?
\n\u25cf 3. Describe how you may interpret the health status of Female 1 based on his BMI, Db, and Body
\ncomposition, and explain your interpretation.
\n\u25cf 4. Is Female 3 healthy based on BMI and Body composition (yes\/no for each), and why (give the
\nvalues and respective ranges for health.
\n\u25cf 5. Are any of these individuals underweight by BMI or body composition? Also, who is the
\nleanest individual?
\nBMI=kg\/m2
\nDb = Body density
\nMales: Db ( \u03a3 3) = 1.10938 – (0.0008267 x \u03a3 3) + (0.0000016 x ( \u03a3 3)2) – (0.0002574 x age)
\nWomen: Db ( \u03a3 3) = 1.0994921 – (0.0009929 x \u03a3 3) + (0.0000023 x ( \u03a3 3)2) – (0.0001392 x age)
\n\u03a33 = sum of chest, abdomen, and thigh for males
\n\u03a3 3 = sum of triceps, suprailium, and thigh for females
\n% Body Fat = {(4.95\/ Db) – 4.50} x 100 (Siri equation, 1961).
\n% Body Fat = {(4.57\/ Db) – 4.142} x 100 (Brozek equation, 1963).
\nQuestion 2
\nImagine an individual who has been training for a half marathon. They have performed 5 sessions each
\nweek of at an intensity of 50-60% of maximal aerobic capacity for 45-60 minutes. The individual has been
\nfollowing this for about 4 months and has seen some improvements in performance and increased
\nmaximal aerobic capacity.
\n1. At this point in the individual\u2019s training, what physiologic components of our Fick Equation are primarily
\nresponsible for this improvement in maximal aerobic capacity.
\nList:
\n\u25cf 1. what has changed within the Fick equation and
\n\u25cf 2. what has caused these changes?
\n2. Following training sessions, what are the Primary and Secondary signals within the individual’s
\nskeletal muscles induced by aerobic exercise, and what changes do each of these lead to?
\nQUESTION 3
\n1. The same athlete as above competes in their half marathon and does fairly well. However, they
\nwant to continue to improve, and so they increase their exercise intensity to account for their
\nimproved VO2max, and continues to train for the next 2.5 years (increasing intensity as
\nnecessary to achieve overload). Their Maximal aerobic capacity continues to improve.
\n1. What physiologic components of our Fick Equation are primarily responsible for this
\nimprovement in maximal aerobic capacity (over this second, longer period of time), and what
\ncaused these changes?
\n2. Now that the individual has been exercising consistently for quite some time, what aspects of
\ntheir health may have been improved relative to another (sedentary) individual (think about Chp.
\n14: CVD, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome and the way exercise affects some of their risk
\nfactors)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
