I have gained knowledge about the measurement of Body composition, Procedures for height and weight measurement, Body mass index, Waist –to –hip ratio (WHR), Circumferences, Skin fold determination, Bioelectrical impedance analysis, and Hydrostatic weighing. This body of knowledge helped me to add value to my past experience.  I also understand how to carry out assessments of muscular strength, and muscular endurance like the Hand grip test, repetition maximum bench press test isokinetic test, curl-up and push-up test, and Sit and reach. In the area of Cardiorespiratory fitness measurement, I learned Step tests, Field tests for the prediction of aerobic capacity as Walk/Run performance tests, Shuttle walk tests, Rockport 1-mile walk tests, and Standards for maximum oxygen uptake.

 I gained valuable knowledge in laboratory sub-maximal exercise tests like cycle ergometer, Cycle calibration general procedures for laboratory submaximal exercise testing, YMCA Sub maximal cycle ergometer protocol, Prediction of CRF or maximal Aerobic Capacity (VO2max) from YMCA results, and Bruce submaximal treadmill exercise test.  

In the maximal exercise testing section I acquired knowledge on the importance of maximal GXT and areas of its application, underlying  Protocols such as Bruce treadmill protocol, balk – ware treadmill protocol, ramp protocol, individualized protocol, general procedures, the role of test operator, the role of the ECG and BP  technician.  I acquired practical knowledge of their application.

I have had absolutely no experience working with real clients before and after this module. The problem-based learning tool was a very helpful tool and taught me to study a patient from a different angle before coming up with a solution. Now I have acquired knowledge about basic protocol testing for different populations and the skill I believe can be achieved through repetition and practice under supervision from trained personnel.

I do understand as a Master’s student it would be my responsibility to acquire knowledge through revision and acquire more through review of the literature. I gained knowledge on Exercise testing for osteoporosis and now understand a Physician’s approval is warranted prior to graded exercise testing in order to determine the risk or benefit ratio of testing. I understand the patient should maintain an upright posture at all times, as any sort of spinal flexion is contraindicated.
