Exercise programming for weight management
1. Exercise Programming for
Weight Management
Joshua La Reaux, M.S., CSCS
Clinical Exercise Instructor, PEAK Academy
Department of Exercise and Sport Science
The University of Utah
2. Physical Activity Recommendations
Surgeon General: 30 minutes of light to moderate
activity most if not all days of the week.
ACSM: Overweight adults should engage in
“approximately 45 minutes” of exercise per day
to lose weight or prevent weight regain.
Institute of Medicine: 60 minutes a day of
moderate physical activity to prevent weight
gain.
International Association for the Study of
Obesity: 45 to 90 minutes of moderate physical
activity per day.
3. Getting Started
• Where are you psychologically?
• Where are you physically?
• What are your barriers?
• What do you enjoy doing?
4. Psychological Readiness
(Transtheoretical Model)
• Precontemplation – lack of interest in making a
change.
• Contemplation – thinking about making a
change.
• Preparation – taking steps to make a change or
have already made small changes.
• Action – actively engaged in the behavior but for
less than six months.
• Maintenance – have maintained the behavior for
more than six months.
5. Physical Readiness
Step 1 - Self administered questionnaire
(PAR-Q, AHA/ACSM Health/Fitness
Facility Preparticipation Questionnaire)
Step 2 – If necessary, obtain physician’s
clearance (may include stress testing).
Step 3 – If necessary, professional
guidance/supervision.
6. Identifying Barriers
Identifying and overcoming barriers is a critical
step in successful exercise programming!
Common barriers include:
• Lack of time
• Lack of support
• Lack of skill
• Access
• Cost
• Fear of injury
7. What do you enjoy doing?
To achieve the highest levels of adherence
choose activities you enjoy. However,
every program should address the main
components of physical fitness:
• Body Composition
• Cardiorespiratory or Aerobic Fitness
• Muscular Strength and Endurance
• Flexibility
8. Cardiovascular Fitness
“Cardiorespiratory fitness is related to the
ability to perform large muscle, dynamic,
moderate- to high-intensity exercise for
prolonged periods” (ACSM, 2000, p.68).
Cornerstone of healthy weight management!

10. Heart Rate Reserve
A way to measure exercise intensity using
resting and maximal heart rate. Also
known as the Karvonen formula.
11. Cardiovascular Fitness Worksheet
Moderate Heart Rate Range (40%) =
([Heart Rate Max* _____ - Resting Heart
Rate _____] x .40) + Resting Heart Rate
Vigorous Heart Rate Range (60%) =
([Heart Rate Max* _____ - Resting Heart
Rate _____] x .60) + Resting Heart Rate
* Heart Rate Max = 220 – age in years (+/- 12).
12. Muscular Strength and Endurance
To write an effective program there are a multitude
of variables to consider:
• Training goal
• Training experience
• Appropriate volume (V = Reps x Load)
• Appropriate intensity (% of 1RM)
• Rest/work ratios
• Exercise selection (large muscle groups followed
by smaller ones)
• Proper warm-up/cool-down
13. Muscular Strength
Program Weeks Frequency Intensity Duration

week Variable
60% to 85%
Advanced 2 to 4 ≤6 1-12 reps Variable

14. Flexibility
Flexibility is defined as the “ability to move a joint
through its complete range of motion” (ACSM, 2000, p.85.).
Including flexibility training into a program may
reduce injury, facilitate activities of daily living
and improve performance. Unfortunately,
flexibility training is often misunderstood and
neglected.

20. Conclusion
The purpose of this workshop is to provide a
general understanding of exercise
programming for healthy weight
management. The examples provided
may not be appropriate for everyone.
Those interested in starting an exercise
program are strongly encouraged to meet
with their physician or a certified exercise
professional.

Hinweis der Redaktion
Elasticity – the ability to return to resting length after passive stretching. Plasticity – the tendency to assume greater length after passive stretching. Stretching can be incorporated into a warm-up (dynamic or static) but may not be appropriate prior to strength training activities. In the following slide we’ll look at some of the different types of stretching and how we can incorporate flexibility into our exercise program.
Talk about the other modes of flexibility training; ballistic, dynamic, PNF, and yoga.
