Editor's Notes

• #3: Evidence about the role of physical activity and exercise in decreasing the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and the identification of factors that increase the risk for heart disease comes from data collected in research projects such as
• #4: 1948 start of study 1960 found that smoking increases risk of heart disease 1961: higher cholesterol and blood pressure levels increase risk of heart disease 1967: physical activity found to reduce the risk of heart disease 1971: initiating of the Offspring study to look at genetic factors 1981: diet and heart disease
• #5: 1995: began looking at all different races and relationship with heart disease 2002: obesity linked with an increased risk of heart failure Same year: began looking at third generation of the original enrollees and trying to identify risk factors and genes associated 2003-2004: looking at the relationship between family history of CVD and the risk of heart disease for the individual
• #6: Control what you can control CVD is the leading cause of death and serious illness in the United States
• #7: Physical Inactivity is the primary risk factor for coronary heart disease
• #8: Remember that epidemiology is the study of the causes, distribution, and control of disease Epidemiologic research is essential for examining the efficacy of treatments and preventive measures
• #9: As your triglyceride levels rise, your relative risk of heart disease rises
• #10: it appears that familial/genetic factors are more important in determining the amount and distribution of subcutaneous body fat than in the response to exercise training
• #11: Past surveys have provided data to create growth charts used nationally by pediatricians to evaluate children’s growth Blood data from the survey was instrumental in developing policy to remove lead from gas and food cans Introduction of healthy weight management programs from the data on obesity rates
• #12: Continuation of NHANES contributes to knowledge about health: Determining if there’s a need to change vitamin and mineral fortification regulations in nation’s food supply National programs to reduce hypertension and continue to explore risk factors New measures of lung function will further the understanding of respiratory disease and aid in treatment of asthma
• #13: Been in existence since the late 20th century consists of a set of health objectives for the United States to achieve during the second decade of the twenty-first century builds on the public health initiatives pursued over the previous three decades Intended to be used by individuals, states, communities, professional organizations, and others to develop programs to improve health
• #15: Exercise phys: genetic influence on disease risk and health promotion Clinical exercise phys: role of exercise on disease risk and effective rehab programs for individuals with disease AT: development of effective treatment and rehabilitation strategies Nutrition: role of nutrition in health and optimization of sport Psychology: exercise adherence and sport performance Motor behavior: exploring how individuals with different levels of ability can effectively participate Biomechanics: developing effective movement patterns and preventing of injuries
• #16: Influx of program initiatives by different organizations like: School health index, choose to move, exercise is medicine, backyards and beyond Effective program development and execution must occur at both the national and local levels
• #17: Looking at policy initiatives: Most well known is the school lunch program, but we also have policy initiatives for sports medicine, American heart association, the institute of medicine to name a few
• #18: Performance enhancement is critical for helping individuals participating in sport and athletic competition reach their highest potential Practitioners all working to advance the field from a physiologic, psychological, nutritional, and rehabilitative aspect
• #19: exercise science professionals have been instrumental in enhancing sport and athletic performance through the development and evaluation of equipment and strategies for training and competition, nutritional supplements, pharmacologic agents, psychological strategies, and the evaluation and rehabilitation of injured athletes Prior research will guide future trends and areas of study For example: research has led to the use of plyometric training for improving muscle power output; understanding the female athlete triad; and exploring the effects of high altitude training
