Week 9 CheckPoint: 3-Day Exercise Activity Analysis For this week’s checkpoint we were asked to Write a 700 to 1050 word response in APA format addressing the following questions about our daily activity schedule. The first question that we were asked is what are my current exercise habits' Currently because school is out I have stepped up my exercise habits because my children are home right now fulltime and I am the parent responsible for them. I now get up everyone in the house and we all go for a run in the park. We started doing this the first day school was out, this gets them up and moving early in the morning giving us all endurance for the day. According to SuperTracker results summary page, what were your credited minutes, total expended calories, physical activity score, and physical activity assessment results' Provide a screenshot of your results summary. | | | | | Carl jr's Physical Activity Report for Week of 07/22/12 - 07/28/12 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Weekly Aerobic Activity | | | | Muscle Strengthening Activity | | | | | | | | | Target (MIE**) | 150 minutes | | | | Target | 2 days | | | | | | | | | Actual (MIE**) | 2700 minutes | | | | Actual | 7 days | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Date | | | Duration | Minutes | MIE** Minutes | | Activity | | | | Intensity | Estimated Calories Burned* | Activity Counts Toward Weekly Aerobic Goal | | | Muscle Strengthening | | | | | Sunday | 07/22/12 | | 60 | 120 | Running, 4 mph (13 min/mile) | | | | Vigorous | 808 | | | | | | | | | | | | 300 | 300 | Cleaning, sweeping, medium effort | | | | Moderate | 2492 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Monday | 07/23/12 | | 60 | 120 | Running, 4 mph (13 min/mile) | | | | Vigorous | 808 | | | | | | | | | | | | 300 | 300 | Cleaning, sweeping, medium effort | | | | Moderate | 2492 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tuesday | 07/24/12 | | 60 | 120 | Running, 4 mph (13 min/mile) | | | | Vigorous | 808 | | | | | | | | | | | | 120 | 120 | Softball, slow pitch | | | | Moderate | 1347 | | | | | | | | | | | | 300 | 300 | Cleaning, sweeping, medium effort | | | | Moderate | 2492 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wednesday | 07/25/12 | | 60 | 120 | Running, 4 mph (13 min/mile) | | | | Vigorous | 808 | | | | | | | | | | | | 120 | 120 | Softball, slow pitch | | | | Moderate | 1347 | | | | | | | | | | | | 300 | 300 | Cleaning, sweeping, medium effort | | | | Moderate | 2492 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thursday | 07/26/12 | | 60 | 120 | Running, 4 mph (13 min/mile) | | | | Vigorous | 808 | | | | | | | | | | | | 300 | 300 | Cleaning, sweeping, medium effort | | | | Moderate | 2492 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Friday | 07/27/12 | | 60 | 120 | Running, 4 mph (13 min/mile) | | | | Vigorous | 808 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Saturday | 07/28/12 | | 60 | 120 | Running, 4 mph (13 min/mile) | | | | Vigorous | 808 | | | | | | | | | | | | 120 | 120 | Softball, slow pitch | | | | Moderate | 1347 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Total Weekly MIE** Minutes: 2700 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Calories burned are estimates only for an average person performing the activity.**Moderate Intensity Equivalent (MIE) Minutes: Every minute of vigorous activity counts as two minutes of moderate activity. For example, 30 minutes of vigorous activity is equivalent to 60 MIE minutes. Light intensity activity and activity less than 10 minutes in duration do not count toward MIE minutes. Although, any activity is always better than none! | | | | | | | | | | | What everyday changes, if any, might you make to increase the amount of energy expended in your day-to-day activities' As to answering this question I have decided that I am going to start doing a daily workout that way that I will be able to keep up with my children and get the right amount of physical exercise that I need for a person of my age. Some of my daily challenges that I will try to implement is making sure besides doing a daily work out at the gym and my daily run I will start using the extra time that I have available to start to change and grow out of the bad habits that I have developed. Other daily changes that I have made is instead of putting my children on the bus in the am what I do is get them out walking and walk them to school or recreation or any other event that they may be having. We can also use our local high school to use there swimming facilities, gym, etc. When I was asked what types and amounts of exercise would work best for you' I found that the type of vigorous exercise is what is needed for me to become as healthy as I was when I was much younger. I think that weight lifting alone with simple arobics and more cardiopulmonary exercise I will be able to burn the calories necessary to make sure that I along with my children are healthy and stronger. I can perform these activities year-round' Because you can now join a gym for small amounts with all of the equipment that may be need for this exercise plan. If not, suggest alternative activities and locations for inclement weather. If you cannot walk outside in the park going to the mall and walking the whole building is a good way of being able to exercise even when the weather may not permit it. Another good alternative is to go to the local high school and use the facilities such as the weight room the gym, track, football field plus there are activities every day for the community so I think that this is where I am going to be going with my boys to get them and myself in the best shape possible.
