1 -3-1 Exercise physiology and training in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy Training Training principles Training in children Program Training children with CP Practical considerations 197 Training in children Training Aerobic FITNESS Muscle Strength Physical training: The process whereby repeated systematic exercise leads to functional and morphological adaptations in the body. Anaerobic Training principles The PRINCIPLES of TRAINING are the rules to follow when using physical activity programs: Specificity Reversibility Adaptation/Supercompensation Specificity In order for a training program to be beneficial, it must improve the specific physiological capabilities required to perform a given sport or activity. Specificity Example, a goalkeeper needs to focus on reaction work in their training, in comparison to a midfielder who should focus on agility, stamina, speed etc. A runner who wants to improve his leg strength, should train differently to a cyclist. Both would need muscular endurance but the training method should be different!! Olaf Verschuren AusACPDM 1

2 -3-1 Reversibility Use it or lose it. When you stop training, the training effects can be reversed so don t quit! The training history will be an important factor. The longer you have trained the longer the effects will be present. Adaptation/Supercompensation In order to improve through training we need to apply greater demands on our body. This is the principle of OVERLOAD. The body will adapt to the new norm. Is it possible to train children? after training Typically developing children children adults Payne VG, Morrow JRJ (1993) Exercise and VO2max in children: a metaanalysis.

PTjournal 211 Recommendations Single-joint resistance training may be more effective for very weak muscles or for children or adolescents who tend to compensate when performing multi-joint exercises, or at the beginning of the training. Recommendations Depending on the complexity of the exercise and the level of motor impairment, children and adolescents with CP may need more than 1 minute of rest between bouts (perhaps up to 3 minutes). Recommendations Since strength training, as it is traditionally done, requires maximal effort and can include somewhat complicated activities, older children and adolescents, over 7 years old, are perhaps better suited to this intervention that younger children. Olaf Verschuren AusACPDM 6

7 -3-1 Recommendations Children or adolescents with more impairment might also benefit from strength training, but if it is difficult for them to contract voluntarily, methods such as electrical stimulation, mental imagery and biofeedback could be helpful.

Arch Intern Med 2:172(6):9-5 Sedentary physiology in children with CP Uptime (Pirpiris and Graham 2) Sedentary pursuits (Maher et al. 27) Typically developing hemiplegia diplegia Mean hours per week Cerebral palsy CP Definitions of Sedentary Behavior Evolution of definitions of sedentary behavior: 21. Sedentary behavior should be defined as the muscular activity rather than the absence of exercise The origins of the word sedentary hint at a simpler, more workable definition. The word sedentary derives from the Latin verb sedere to sit. When sitting or lying, the majority of the body s largest muscle groups are under relaxation; in contrast, when standing, even if still, a large proportion of the body s musculature are under tension. Therefore any non-exercise activity that involves sitting or lying can be considered sedentary. 2. Sedentary behaviour is any waking behaviour characterized by an energy expenditure 1 5 METs while in a sitting or reclining posture. Important factors of Sedentary Behaviour Posture (sitting or reclining) Energy expenditure ( 1.5 METs) Muscular inactivity Low sedentary CP = Coach Potato High sedentary Olaf Verschuren AusACPDM

It is difficult to become and stay physically active. Even if we (or they) succeed, we are not doing enough. We need to get them less sedentary. Stand up for your health and ask a question?
