A3 Exercise intensity and how it can be determined

What is the formula to calculate heart rate (HR) using the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) Scale?

• RPE x 5 = HR

• RPE x 10 = HR

• RPE x 15 = HR

• RPE x 20 = HR

Which of the following is a method to measure exercise intensity?

• Using a thermometer

• Using a heart rate monitor

• Using a pedometer

• Using a stopwatch

What is the maximum heart rate (HR max) formula commonly used to calculate training zones?

• 220 - age

• 200 - age

• 180 - age

• 160 - age

Which training zone is primarily focused on improving cardiovascular endurance?

• Anaerobic training zone

• Aerobic training zone

• Flexibility training zone

• Strength training zone

What does 1RM stand for in strength training?

• One Repetition Maximum

• One Resistance Measure

• One Range Movement

• One Rate Measurement

Which of the following devices can be used to track heart rate during exercise?

• Smart watch

• Thermometer

• Barometer

What is the primary focus of training in the anaerobic training zone?

• Improving flexibility

• Building muscular endurance

• Increasing speed and power

• Enhancing balance

How is the 15RM used in fitness training?
