Components of exercise prescription Type of exercise or activity (eg, walking, swimming, cycling) Specific workloads (eg, watts, walking speed) Duration and frequency of the activity or exercise session. Intensity guidelines – Target heart rate (THR) range and estimated rate of perceived exertion (RPE)

Exercise Prescription Examples The following is an example of an exercise prescription for an apparently healthy young adult: Warm-up: five to ten minutes of plyometrics. Conditioning: 20 to 40 minutes of aerobic exercise or anaerobic exercise. Cool-down: five to ten minutes of walking or light bicycling.

Training means engaging in activity to improve performance and/or fitness; this is best accomplished by understanding general sports training principles: overload, reversibility, progression, individualization, periodization, and specificity.

Exercise prescription is based on 5 principles: type, duration, frequency, intensity, and volume. Each measure has guidelines for what parameters denote vigorous, moderate, and low intensity exercise.

Exercise Prescription TypeFrequencyTime/DurationResistance (Strength)2-3 days/week8-12 repetitions, 2-4 sets with 2-3 minutes rest in betweenFlexibility2-3 days/weekHold 10-30 seconds, 2-4 times to accumulate 60 seconds per stretchBalance2-3 days/week20-30 minutes1 more row

The total dose or amount is determined by the three components of activity: frequency, duration, and intensity. Frequency is commonly expressed in sessions, episodes, or bouts per day or per week.

You can make your own fitness training program or ask for help from a personal trainer. But your complete exercise plan should have many parts. Aim to have aerobic fitness, strength training, core exercises, balance training, and flexibility and stretching in your exercise plan.

An exercise prescription should include the following components: Frequency, Intensity, Type, Time, and Progression (FITT-PRO) of exercise. Table 313–15,18,19 provides recommendations for prescribing aerobic, resistance, and flexibility training for older adults.
