New cards
C.1 Hypokinetic disease
a disease associated with physical inactivity
2
New cards
Habitual physical activity
What we do everyday, moving to get through the day
3
New cards
exercise
Intentional physical activity to improve physical fitness
4
New cards
types of hypokinetic diseases:
\-> Cardiovascular disease (CVD) \n -> obesity \n ->Type 2 diabetes \n ->Osteoporosis \n -> Mental ill-health \n -> some types of cancer
5
New cards
Coronary heart disease
when coronary arteries are clogged with plaque caused by Atherosclerosis
6
New cards
Stroke
a blood clot in a vessel of the brain, blocks blood and O2 getting to areas of the brain, leading to tissue death
7
New cards
Hypertension
High blood pressure (140/90)
8
New cards
Obesity
Excess of body fat
9
New cards
Type 2 diabetes
Body becomes resistant to insulin produced by the pancreas (best treatment is exercise)
10
New cards
Osteoporosis
Low bone density, its like having holes in the bone, it makes it easier to break (to make it stronger/more dense, we put force to the bone)
11
New cards
C.1.4 Discuss how studies of different populations provide evidence of the link between physical activity and hypokinetic disease
Various populations changed their lifestyles from one of high physical activity (traditional, agricultural-based living) to one of low physical activity ("westernized living")

CHD and stroke account for a large % of deaths in high income countries as we become more sedentary
12
New cards
C.1.5 Discuss the relationship between major societal changes and hypokinetic disease
Examples of changes:


1. proliferation of the motor vehicle
2. changes in employment and working patterns
3. changes in diet
13
New cards
C.2 Cardiovascular disease (CVD)
term given to classify a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels. (mainly consists of hypertension/high blood pressure, coronary heart disease and stroke)
14
New cards
C.2.1 Outline the coronary circulation
coronary circulation: how blood transfers through heart & how blood supplies itself
15
New cards

New cards
C.2.2 Outline what is meant by the term atherosclerosis
hardening of the arteries due to the accumulation of plaque (made up of cholesterol and other substances) in the walls of arteries = blood clot
19
New cards
C.2.3 List the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (10)
cigarette smoking, high blood pressure (hypertension), high cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol, low HDL-cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, physical inactivity, age, gender, ethnicity and family history.
20
New cards
C.2.4 Explain the concept of risk factors in cardiovascular disease
Can be sometimes clustered together. Clustering three or more factors together is sometimes called metabolic syndrome. Major components (high triglyceride - blood fat and low levels of HDL- Cholesterol), impaired glucose regulation or diabetes, (particular abdominal obesity) increases risk of CVD
21
New cards
Show Exercise may lower the risk of CHD (4 reasons)
\-may have direct effects on the heart

\-increasing the size of the coronary arteries and making them less likely to get blocked

\-improves endothelial function which means that arteries are able to vasodilate (open up) on demand to increase blood supply, reduce the chances of ischemia

\-helps to prevent obesity thus reducing the risk of blood clots forming

\-major positive effect of exercise is helping to maintain high levels of protective high density cholesterol (HDL)
22
New cards
C.2.5 Discuss how a lifestyle of physical inactivity increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (4 increased risks of CHD)
high blood pressure, obesity, type 2 diabetes, low HDL Cholesterol
23
New cards
C.3.1 Describe how obesity is determined (along with limitations on calculations)
Obesity is by definition an excess of body fat, but in reality it is determined using indirect measurements of body, for example body fat index BMI (kg/m^2) and waist circumference
24
New cards
underweight BMI
less than 18.5
25
New cards
A BMI normal
between 18.5 and 25
26
New cards
A BMI overweight (Obese I)
25-30
27
New cards
A BMI = obese (Obese II)
30-40
28
New cards
A BMI morbid obese (Obese III)
40+
29
New cards
BMI Cons
Values can be often misleading - bodybuilders weightlifters, large muscles
30
New cards
More accurate assessments of body fat %s: (and their limitations!)
\-> sophisticated imaging techniques, including dual energy x-ray absrptionmetry (DXA), magnetic resonance techniques (MRI), and computed tomography (CT)

\-costly and time consuming
31

33
New cards
C.3.3 Discuss the concept of energy balance (3)
Energy Balance is affected mainly by food intake, resting metabolic rate and physical activity.
34
New cards
If Energy intake > energy expenditure
weight gain
35
New cards
If Energy intake < energy expenditure
weight loss
36
New cards
If Energy intake = energy expenditure
stable body weight
37
New cards
C.3.4 Outline how chemical signals arising from the gut and from the adipose tissue affect appetite regulation (steps)
Hormones are produced by the stomach and small intestine after eating and by adipose tissue (leptin). These pass to an appetite control centre in the brain (hypothalamus) that regulates feelings of hunger and satiety.
38
New cards
C.4.1 Compare type 1 and type 2 diabetes (similarity)
both can cause death or hyperglycemia
39
New cards

45
New cards
C.5.1 Outline how bone density changes from birth to old age
Bone mass density increases from birth through to around 35-45 years of age.
46
New cards
Bone density differences in gender
females achieve a lower-peak bone density than males. From this age onwards, bone mass density decreases (esp in women post menopause)
47
New cards
C.5.2 Describe the risk of osteoporosis in males and females
low bone mineral density can lead to osteoporosis which leaves a person more vulnerable to fracturing bones
48
New cards
who is affected most by osteoporosis
females post menopause
49
New cards
3 factors determine whether or not a person develops osteoporosis:
\->Their peak bone mass as a young adult

\->The rate of bone loss with aging

→exercise
50
New cards
C.5.3 Outline the longer-term consequences of osteoporosis in males and females (3)

51
New cards
C.5.4 Discuss the major risk factors for osteoporosis (5)
lack of dietary calcium, cigarette smoking, slim build (ectomorphy), lack of estrogen associated with early menopause and female triad (athletic amenorrhea) and physical inactivity.
52
New cards
C.5.5 Discuss the relationship between physical activity and bone health (effect of too intense workouts on weight-conscious individuals)
weight- bearing physical activity for bone health, but in some cases, intense training in weight-conscious/young athletes gives rise to low body weight/body fat and eating disorders, leading to menstrual disfunction and bone demineralization (osteoporosis)
53
New cards
C.5.5 Discuss the relationship between physical activity and bone health (Changes in bone density)
site-specific and resistance training results in greater changes than endurance training.
54

58
New cards
\
7\.2 Outline the 2 effects of exercise on changing mood states.
