Responding to Angina
• Stop exercise immediately

• If after taking 3 tablets (or after 15 minutes) the pain persists, or if symptoms of a heart attack become present, call 911
• Seat client & monitor BP after nitroglycerin due to the likelihood of hypotension
Congestive Heart Failure: Symptoms

with exercise or other exertion

• Cures erosion of the esophogus; may prevent cancer of esophogus
• Possible side effects: headache, dizziness, vomiting, diarrhea
Acid Reflux, GERD, GI Distress Exercise Protocol

Understanding Diabetes Mellitus
• Type 1
– “Juvenile Diabetes”
– Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM)
– Treatment: • Exogenous Insulin
(injected)
– 5% of all diabetics
• Type 2
– “Adult Onset Diabetes”
– Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM)
– Treatment: • Diet
• Exercise
• Oral medication
– 95% of all diabetics
Exercise Adjustments • Physician may need to
adjust insulin dosage to prevent hypoglycemia
• If exercise is unplanned or of long duration, encourage use of supplemental carbohydrate to support increased glucose needs
• Replace carbohydrate stores post-exercise (30 minutes)
Blood Glucose Variations
• Client MUST monitor blood glucose before, during and after exercise
• If blood sugar >100, defer exercise until it raises
• Hypoglycemia: low blood glucose – Results from too much
exercise, too much insulin or too little food
Webinars on Demand, 2017
(C) 2012,2016 by Exercise ETC Inc. All rights reserved. 15
Symptoms of Hypoglycemia
• Defined as blood sugar levels <60 mg/dl
– Dizziness
– Light headedness
– Unsteady
– Confused irritable
– Nervous
– Unconscious
Blood Glucose Variations
• Delayed hypoglycemia biggest danger – Increased glucose
uptake following exercise can cause hypoglycemia 6-15 hours after exercise
– Insulin sensitivity increases following exercise
Diabetes: Exercise Protocol
Cardio Strength Flex
Frequency 3-6X per wk 2- 3X per week 2-3 X per wk
Intensity 40 – 70% VO2 10 – 15 reps

seconds
Mode Any Free Weights,
Machines,
Tubing, etc.

Abnormal Exercise Responses
• Unusual or persistent fatigue
