Transcript of What is a healthy weight?
Can you design an exercise program using the F.I.T.T formula that will
help Mr. Peterson reach a healthy weight?
What is a healthy weight?
• In order to to reach a goal of weight loss we first must set a desired weight that is healthy for our age and height.
• Using the body mass index table is a quick way to access what is a healthy weight for you.
Click here to see an example of how to find your BMI using the
table
Use Mr. Peterson’s measurements as a guide to help you.
Mr. P’s Height = 6’1 (This can be found on the Y axis located on the left side of the table.
Mr. P’s Weight = 220 (This can be found on the X axis located at the top of the table.
Click on Mr. Peterson’s current BMI to continue
Mr. Peterson’s BMI is (29)How many pounds does Mr. Peterson need to lose in order for him to
reach his goal of (26) on the BMI table?
40lbs 10lbs 20lbs
Correct!
Correct! Great Job

Help Mr. Peterson
• Now that we know what Mr. Peterson’s healthy weight should be we can start to analyze his workouts and Use the F.I.T.T formula to help him achieve his goals!
• Lets first take a look at Mr. Peterson’s current workout routine.
Click the chart to view Mr. P’s exercise routine
Mr. P’s Exercise Routine
Jogging: Monday, Wednesday 15 Min
Weight lifting: Tuesday 45 Min
Walking the dog: Saturday 15 Min
Understanding F.I.T.T
• We now have Mr. Peterson’s workout routine, but in order for us to create a more effective exercise program for him we must first learn about the F.I.T.T formula and how it can help us.
F.I.T.T• The F.I.T.T. formula
is a way to measure the effectiveness of a work-out, or fitness program. Click on the boxes to learn more about the different parts of the FITT formula.

Frequency
• Frequency: how often you do the activity each week.
• Exercising more than three times each week for six months should help you get physically fit.
• To maintain your fitness level, continue your program al least three times each week
• Did Bob’s exercise routine meet the frequency requirements, why or why not?
Intensity• Intensity: how hard you work at the activity
per session. An intense workout is one in which the heart is pounding, perspiration increases, and bodily fatigue sets in.
• The intensity of your work-outs should always increase, but it should increase slowly and safely.
• In order to measure the intensity of a workout people can exercise within their target heart range. Click the heart see the 3 steps for calculating
target heart range
THR Formula
Step 1
• Hrmax=220-Age
Step 2
• Hrmax- RHR=HRmaxReserve
Step 3
• HrmaxReserve x 80%=THR
Hrmax=Maximum Heart Rate RHR=Resting Heart Rate
Hrmaxreserve= Maximum Heart Rate
ReserveTHR=Target Heart Range
Time/Duration• Time/Duration: how much time you devote to each
work-out.• Slowly build up the amount of time you spend
doing an exercise.• The goal for aerobic exercise is to exercise in
your target heart range for 20-30 minutes.• Did Bob’s exercise routine meet the Time
requirements, why or why not?
Type• Type: Which activities you select• If fitness or losing weight is your goal then you
should devote 75-80 percent of your workout time to aerobic activity and 20-25 percent to anaerobic activity.
• Did Bob choose the best types of exercise for his personal goals? Why or why not?

Question #1Using the smart board draw a line from the correct element of the FITT formula to its correct
definition.
The specific activities done during the exercise routine.
How hard you work at the activity per session.
The length of each exercise session.
How often you do the activity each week.

Question #2• How was Mr. P’s exercise routine failing to
meet the TYPE requirement in the FITT formula?
A: He didn’t exercise long enough
B: He didn’t exercise with a friend
C: He didn’t perform aerobic activities often enough during the week
D: He chose incorrect exercises for his desired outcome of weight loss
Incorrect, Please try again.
Correct, Great Job!
Question #3
• In order to fulfill the Intensity requirement of the FITT formula a person needs to exercise
in their Target Heart Range for at least 30 minutes during the exercise session. See if you can use Mr. Peterson’s information to
calculate his Target Heart Range.
Click Here for Question #3
Calculate Mr. P’s THR using his Age and Resting Heart RateAge -30
Resting Heart Rate -60*If you need help click on the step number to see an example
Step 1: HRmax = 220-Age
Step 2: HRmax – RHR = HRmaxReserve
Step 3: HRmaxReserve x 80% = THR
Calculate Mr. P’s THR using his Age and Resting Heart RateAge -30
Resting Heart Rate -60*If you need help click on the step number to see an example
Step 1: HRmax = 220-Age
Step 2: HRmax – RHR = HRmaxReserve
Step 3: HRmaxReserve x 80% = THR
220-30 (Age) = 190
190-60 (RHR) = 130
130 x 80% = 104 (THR)
• Mr. P’s New & Improved Workout Routine
• Now that we know Mr. P’s desired weight using the BMI, and have calculated his THR, create a new exercise routine using the F.I.T.T. formula that will be more effective in helping him reach his goal.
