Prescription back then was bed rest; rest for long periods of time instead of exercising; people found out recently that it is actually safe and beneficial to exercise after a heart attack. Epidemiological data: inactivity a major risk factor ; pa and/or cr fitness associated with decreased risk of morbidities and all-cause mortality. Late (cid:859)(cid:1010)0s, (cid:858)(cid:1011)0s lifestyle determinants of health (smoking, etc) Csep provides the guidelines and participation enforces those guidelines. Physical activity guidelines: somebody has to go through all the research from one area and critic it (systematic review) guidelines get updated every 5 years. Physical activity and functional limitations in older adults: A s(cid:455)ste(cid:373)ati(cid:272) re(cid:448)ie(cid:449) related to ca(cid:374)ada"s ph(cid:455)si(cid:272)al a(cid:272)ti(cid:448)it(cid:455) guideli(cid:374)es. Primary purpose: to examine the role of pa in the maintenance of functional independence in older adults. The purpose is to essentially derive a recommended type of physical activity, volume and intensity dose-response relationship required to achieve health benefits in older adults (type, volume & intensity)
