what is the purpose of exercise testing of cardiovascular disease?

Best answer:

Answer by DA DUCTA MAN
the purpose of an exercise stress test is to determine if the heart arteries have any blockage or narrowing and to determine if this is affecting heart function. By stressing the heart via exercise to get it beating up to 85 % of one’s target rate(220-age) the doc then watches the continuous EKG during exercise to see if there are any ST segement changes- this indicates a lack of circulation to the heart (Ischemia). He also notes any symptoms the person undergoing the stress test may have.

What are ways to exercise without equipment?

Exercise Fitness answers

Question by curious: What are ways to exercise without equipment?
I’m trying to lose weight. I’m only 15 years old and it’s hard for me to go to a gym or to buy exercise equipment to exercise in the house. The only thing really holding me back from going on a diet is exercise because i know it’s hard to lose weight without exercise. Could someone help me?

Best answer:

Answer by x_Super_Social_Superstar_x
1. Dont diet.
2. What do you do in PE lessons?!?!!?
One way which helps me is running. When I first started I ran round the block for… a week. And towards the end I was quite comfortable with running that distance. After that week I ran round a bigger space.
Cycling can help too!
Or dancing! Dance mat games often have a work out mode on them, or just pretend you’re a super dancing diva and dance and skip and jump wherever you go!

What do you think? Answer below!
