Sarah Stepsup completed the Astrand Step Test Protocol. You found the following baseline and post-test data:

Baseline data

  • Age = 40 years
  • Weight = 55 kg
  • HRrest = 72 bpm
  • BPrest = 116/76

Post-test data

  • HR at completion of test = 164
  • BP = 126/78
  • Estimated VO2max:
    • 2.0 Lmin-1
    • 36.4 mlkg-1min-1
  • RPE at end of test = 15 (6-20 scale)

Based on information you gathered from Sarah's preparticipation health screening and these exercise tests results, you have determined the following exercise prescription is ideal to accomplish her goals of improving health. You decided to use VO2R for your CRF intensity because you had a predicted maximal value for the test. You also decided that VO2R was a more appropriate approach since percentages of VO2max only accounts for one variable. Complete the following table that highlights her CRF exercise prescription.
