Instructions:
1. For each individual, determine their predicted maximal oxygen uptake from the YMCA test results and complete the exercise prescription based on these results.
2. For each individual, compile data into a one page typed sheet assessing their physical fitness as well as their resting HR/BP, and BMI.
3. Include a description of what the YMCA test evaluates and the importance of this test. Include numbers and classifications/percentiles for your findings.
4. The 1-2 page document that you create should be formatted as an informational handout that you will be giving the individual to summarize their results. Therefore, you must make it easy to read and interpret and should only include pertinent values (e.g. VO2, HR, BP, BMI). Focus on quality vs quantity of what is written.
5. The last portion of each document must include the distinct exercise prescription that you calculated for this individual (both moderate and vigorous intensity).
Case Study Grading Structure:
Accurate Calculation/Assessment of Each Test: 5 points
– Ensure numbers (e.g. VO2, HR/BP, BMI) and classifications/percentiles are correct.
Clear and Comprehensive Evaluation and Description of Results: 5 points
– Test description included and can be clearly interpreted
– Ensure it is easy for the reader to see and interpret their results
– Clear exercise prescription structure and values
