Exercise Prescription Case Studies for Clinical Populations by Bradley R A Wilson

Designed to provide students with practical, hands-on knowledge, Exercise Prescription Case Studies for Clinical Populations introduces readers to situations they are likely to encounter when writing exercise prescriptions in professional settings. The book focuses on individuals with certain clinical diseases, exposing students to practices established over many years of research to ensure the safety and efficacy of an exercise program for this unique population. Students are presented with strategies for working with individuals with advanced cardiovascular disease, peripheral vascular disease, and pulmonary diseases. A case study approach is used, beginning with the contraindications for clinical exercise testing through exercise prescriptions. The case studies closely follow the guidelines established by the American College of Sports Medicine, rendering it a valuable resource to help students prepare for the ACSM Certified Clinical Exercise Physiologist exam. Exercise Prescription Case Studies for Clinical Populations features content that prepares students for a meaningful career after graduation. The text is exemplary for courses in exercise science and physiology.
