1 Testing and Evaluation Vocab

2  Body Composition:  Submaximal aerobic exercise test:  Palpation:  Auscultation:  Baroreceptors:  Antecubital space:  Maximal graded exercise test:  Training heart-rate range:  Physical working capacity:  Hydrostatic weighing:  Residual volume:  Bioelectrical impedance:  Body mass index (BMI):  Anthropometric assessments:  Waist-to-hip circumference ratio (WHR):  Informed Consent:  Hernia  Fat free mass  Angina  Overweight: an upward deviation in body weight based on the subjects height. 20% or more above ideal weight  Overfat: excess amount of body fat

3  Body Composition: the makeup of the body in terms of the relative percentage of fat free mass and body mass  Submaximal aerobic exercise test: a cardiorespiratory fitness test designed so that the intensity does not exceed 85% of heart rate reserve or maximal oxygen uptake  Palpation: the use of hands to detect anatomical structures  Auscultation: using a stethoscope to listen to sounds of the body  Baroreceptors: a sensory nerve ending that is stimulated by changes in pressure  Antecubital space: space in the front part of the elbow  Maximal graded exercise test: GXT: a treadmill or bike test that measures or estimates maximum aerobic capacity  Training heart-rate range: target heart rate represented as a range of numbers  Physical working capacity: the max amount of physical work that can be attained by an individual  Hydrostatic weighing: an underwater test used to measure body fat and lean body mass %  Residual volume: the volume of air left in the lungs after complete expiration

4  Bioelectrical impedance: method of determining body composition by measuring the body’s resistance to electrical flow  Body mass index (BMI):relative measure of body height to body weight to determine obesity  Anthropometric assessments: measurement and analysis of parts of the human body  Waist-to-hip circumference ratio (WHR):measure for determining health risk due to the site of fat storage  Informed Consent: voluntary acknowledgement of the purpose, procedures and specific risks  Hernia: protrusion of abdominal wall into the groin area  Fat free mass: part of the body composition that represents everything but fat  Angina: chest pain  Overweight: an upward deviation in body weight based on the subjects height. 20% or more above ideal weight  Overfat: excess amount of body fat
