| GROUP PROJECT 1, 2 & 3 GUIDELINES Detailed Group Project 1 & 2 Guidelines *Class Note!: The modality of choice will be assigned to you for Project 1 & 2! These reports need to be typed and not hand-written! Here is what the reports need to include--Be thorough! I. Cover Page (2 pt) *Title (i.e. Treadmill Stress Test Project) *Presented by: 1st name listed should have Primary Investigator next to name. *All other names of people in group II. Introduction (4 pt) *This is a paragraph or two on maximal stress testing (why we do it and how it is done, for instance) and then introduce whether you are doing a treadmill test or cycle ergometer test and some of the "pros and cons" of this type of testing. III. Subject descriptives (3 pt) *Put this information in table format: Age (yr), Ht (cm), Wt (kg), exercise history, what type of exercise, any limitations of subject, etc. IV. Protocol (5 pts) *Explain how you developed the protocol and what rationale you used. This is the time to do any extra research on exercise protocol development and cite the article/textbook in text. *Also include the following in this section: -Show an XY figure of protocol as shown in textbooks -Show ACSM calculations (only need the VO2 and METS) of your warm-up, each stage of your test, and recovery V. Description of the test (5 pts) *What you measured and when. For instance, make sure you get resting, exercise, and recovery data for the following: -RPE, HR, BPs, EKGs -What was the criteria you will use for attaining max? VI. Analysis, evaluation, and discussion of the test (6 pts) *Present the rest, max, and recovery data in some type of TABLE *Evaluate the HR, BP, EKG, and predicted VO2max responses as we have learned in class. Graph each over time!! *Evaluate your protocol using information from class and any additional research/information (i.e., was it between 8 to 12 minutes, did the subject attain/meet your criteria for max, etc.). Detailed Group Project 3 Guidelines You can use any modality for Project 3. This project needs to be typewritten! Here is what it needs to include--Be thorough! I have capitalized and colored the only parts different in Project 3 I. Cover Page (2 pt) *Title (Such as Treadmill Stress Test Project) *Presented by: 1st name listed should have Primary Investigator next to name. *All other names of people in group II. Introduction (5 pt) *THIS IS A PARAGRAPH DISCUSSING THE COLLECTION OF GASES DURING A MAXIMAL STRESS TEST1 III. Subject descriptives (3 pt) *Put this information in table format: Age (yr), Ht (cm), Wt (kg), exercise history, what type of exercise, any limitations of subject, etc. IV. Protocol (5 pts) *Explain how you developed the protocol and what rationale you used. This is the time to do any extra research on exercise protocol development and cite the article/textbook in text. *Also include the following in this section: -Show an XY figure of your protocol as shown in textbooks -DON’T NEED TO SHOW ACSM ESTIMATES HERE!! V. Description of the test (5 pts) *What you measured and when. For instance, make sure you get resting, exercise, and recovery data for the following: -VO2, RER, RPE, HR, BPs, EKGs -What was the criteria you will use for attaining max? -REMEMBER, WITH THIS TEST YOU ARE COLLECTING GAS SO YOU CAN HAVE DIFFERENT VO2MAX CRITERIA! VI. Analysis, evaluation, and discussion of the test (10 pts) *Present the rest, max, and recovery data in some type of TABLE *Evaluate the responses of HR, BP, VO2, and other gas collection variables of your choosing as we have learned in class. Graph them each over time!!! *Evaluate your protocol using information from class and any additional research/information (i.e., was it between 8 to 12 minutes, did the subject attain/meet your criteria for max, etc.). *Write a “doctor’s” note interpreting the EKG as you have learned in class VII. APPENDIX *SUBMIT THE EKG, GAS ANALSYIS PRINTOUT, AND ALL FORMS USED. PARTICIPATION IS WHERE THE LEARNING OCCURS--WORK TO SCHEDULE YOUR TIME SO ALL GROUP MEMBERS CAN PARTICIPATE IN THE TEST! |
