Exercise and fitness--benefits and risks: children & exercise XVIII

This is a book written by world authorities on selected topics with the common theme of children and exercise. The text is organised into 16 chapters containing state-of-the-art articles by leading authorities on selected topics of relevance to clinicians, practitioners and researchers who are concerned with the effects of exercise on the growing child. The text adds significantly to the body of knowledge in this area and contributes to the further advancement of the growing subdiscipline of Pediatric Exercise Science.

The Accumulated Oxygen Deficit Measure and Its Application in Pediatric Exercise Science

A definitive measure for assessing the energy contribution of anaerobic pathways during exhaustive exercise remains inconclusive. The accumulated oxygen deficit (AOD) has been used in several studies to estimate energy contribution. The underlying assumptions of the AOD measure have been criticized for underestimating the true contribution of anaerobic metabolism in high intensity exercise. Indeed, the AOD measure has been the subject of much controversy. Several of the physiological exercise responses of children may lead to an even greater underestimation of the anaerobic energy contribution to high intensity exercise in children than adults when AOD measures are calculated.

Measurement in pediatric exercise science

This text provides both standardized lab protocols for assessing anthropometric and physiological attributes in children and complete information on field assessments of paediatric fitness. A wide range of measurement techniques are described and critically evaluated. Parts I and II focus on physical and physiological assessment - anthropomentry, body composition, maturation, anaerobic performance, aerobic performance, muscular strength and endurance. Each chapter in these two parts introduces the measurement area, discusses both the significnace of collecting the data and the development characteristics of the measurement variable, and also reviews the tests and protocols used most often. Part III discusses measuring physical activity and critically analyzes the field tests and batteries that are used to test fitness levels in children. Batteries from the USA, Canada, New Zealand, and Europe are considered and evaluated for their validity and reliability. The book includes normative standards to allow researchers to compare their subjects with others.

Teen physical activity guidelines

All adolescents should be moderately physically active daily, and should vigorously exercise at least three times a week, according to physical-activity guidelines developed from the International Consensus Conference on Physical Activity Guidelines for Adolescents. Published in the November 1994 issue of Pediatric Exercise Science, the guidelines represent research efforts of 13 health organizations, including the Academy, who met in San Diego in 1993 to develop age-specific, adolescent physical-activity guidelines. Designed to promote physical and psychological teen health, goals include increasing probable continued adult physical fitness.
