March 2021 IDEA Fitness Journal Quiz 2: Linking VO2max With Cardiometabolic Health, and How Aging Changes the Neuromuscular System
Description
This quiz discusses how maximal aerobic capacity relates to cardiometabolic health and circuit weight training protocols that improve aerobic capacity. This quiz also explores neuromuscular system decline in older populations and how to create balance-training programs for older clients.

- Explain the relationship between maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max) and cardiometabolic health, cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease and all-cause mortality.
- Discuss circuit weight training protocols that improved VO2max in research studies.
- Define the characteristics of body-weight exercise programs that increase VO2max.
- Explain foundational concepts related to neuromuscular system decline in older populations.
- Evaluate research on motor units and proprioceptive function in relation to neuromuscular system decline.
- Create an appropriate balance-training program for older clients.
