CASE STUDY
Doe, Jane
First Author: Tovar, Jonathan Case Study for Jane Doe
Abstract
Jane Does, a 27 year old sedentary Hispanic female, who was approached by us to participate in our program. goal was of losing weight. The initial ACSM risk stratification diagnosis indicated a body composition of 27% body fat at 137 lbs with a height of 5’6. The family medical history indicated a history of heart disease on the paternal and maternal side of the family. According to ACSM risk stratification guidelines she does not need a referral from a physician for exercise clearance. Measures regarding examining body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength/endurance, and flexibility were taken. Based upon the results a moderate intensity (60%-70% HRR/VO2R) a Cardiorespiratory and Resistance training program was designed for Jane Doe. A negative caloric balance program was established based upon her current RMR and newly designed exercise prescription. Muscle strength and endurance programs were designed to increase metabolic activity and rate mas well to increase fat free mass. It is hypothesized that Jane Doe will lose approximately 1.5 pounds per week for 11 weeks to reach target weight and to minimize total body fat percentage to < 20%.
