Case Studies Co-organised by: Supported by: Sponsored by:

Case 1: CY CHAN • M/43 • Smoker (1. 5 p/d X 25 yrs) • PMH: HT on med under good control • FH: Father died from a heart attack at age 60 • Works as a construction site labourer • No SSx of cardiorespiratory disease • Body height = 173 cm; Body weight = 80 kg • Total cholesterol = 8 mmol/L • Fasting glucose = 5. 4 mmol/L You want to suggest CY to perform aerobic and resistance Ex You would like to stratify his risk to see if he should need further medical workup or exercise testing before increasing his PA level Co-organised by: Supported by: Sponsored by:

Case 1: Risk Stratification FOUR Risk Factors CY CHAN is not: • Cigarette smoking • Sedentary ∵ his physically active job • HT • Hypercholesterolaemia • Having FH of heart disease ∵ his father’s • Obesity (BMI 26. 7 kg/m 2) heart attack occurred >55 • Hyperglycemic Co-organised by: Supported by: Sponsored by:

According to the ACSM Risk Stratification Scheme • Although Mr. CHAN is considered to be young (<45), he is in the moderate-risk category • For performing low- to moderate-intensity PA – Further medical workup and exercise testing not necessary – A sub-maximal exercise test can offer a comprehensive appraisal of his condition • For embarking on a vigorous exercise programme, he would need further medical clearance from specialists or equivalent professionals Co-organised by: Supported by: Sponsored by:

Case 2: KC CHAN • M/56, moderate-risk • He is worried about his own health ∵ His old friend suffered a heart attack a week ago • He wants to control his body weight to reduce his risk of heart disease • You are going to advise him to embark on moderateintensity aerobic exercises on regular basis. • His resting HR = 86 bpm What would be an appropriate target HR range for Mr. CHAN? Co-organised by: Supported by: Sponsored by:

Case 2: Prescribing Exercise Intensity • KC’s maximal heart rate (HRmax) = 220 – 56 = 164 bpm (A) %HRmax Method Target HR range = 64 – 76% of HRmax = 164(0. 64) to 164(0. 76) = 105 bpm - 125 bpm Co-organised by: (B) %HRR Method Target HR range = 40 – 59% of HRR = (0. 4)(164 -86)+86 to (0. 59)(164 -86)+86 = 117 bpm - 132 bpm Supported by: Sponsored by:
