Strength Training Dosage

  • % of a repetition maximum
  • Perceived Exertion Scales
  • For our patients with arthritis, these

should be “pain-free” entities

Strength Training Dosage

  • American College of Sports Medicine

Recommendations for Older Adults

– 60-80% 1 RM, 8-12 reps, 1-3 sets, with 1-3 min rest between sets. – Can also incorporate power programs of 30- 60% 1 RM, 6-10 reps, 1-3 sets at higher repetition velocity. – For endurance training, use lighter loads (50-60%) with higher reps (10-15 or more)

slide-5
SLIDE 5

Departm ent of Physical Therapy

Progression of Strength Training Intensity

  • When patient can perform 1-2 reps over

the target reps for 2 consecutive sessions, training load should be increased by 2 to 10%.

  • Recommend re-establishing the 1 RM

every 2 to 4 weeks to re-adjust training loads appropriately.

Alternative to Repetition Maxim um for Dosing

  • Emphasize gains in

muscle force output

  • Increase resistance as

patient progresses and RPE falls below desired level.

  • Potential Advantages
  • f RPE

– Can dose without need for major testing equipment – Easy to teach patient for independent exercise and activity programs

  • Potential

Disadvantages of RPE

– Not yet known if it will produce the same strength outcomes as %RM approach

Aerobic Training Dose

  • 30 to 60 minutes per week
  • 50-70% of heart rate

reserve (HRR)

  • Target HR = 220- Age –

(Resting HR x %HRR) + Resting HR

  • Example: 60 y/ o with

resting HR of 80, exercise at 60% of HRR: 220 – 60 – (80 X .60) + 80 =128 beats/ min

Manual Therapy

  • Techniques include accessory and physiologic

motion techniques, manual stretching techniques, and soft tissue manipulation techniques

Departm ent of Physical Therapy

Manual Therapy: Joint Mobilization

  • Can be used to induce relaxation and reduce

pain (grades 1 and 2)

  • Can be used to improve joint mobility (grades

3-5)

  • Objective of treatment is to manually

reproduce joint accessory motions such as distractions and joint surface translations.

  • Can also be used to apply more targeted

stretching of joint capsule

Departm ent of Physical Therapy

Joint Mobilization: Indications

  • Hypomobility on accessory motion

testing (reproduction of joint translatory movements)

  • Measureable reduction in joint motion

even after de-emphasizing contribution from tight muscles

  • Pain/ stiffness in specific portions of the

peri-articular soft tissue on joint motion

Deyle, et al. Phys Ther. 20 0 5; 8 5: 130 1-1317.

  • Compared group with knee OA receiving

supervised manual therapy and exercise to group receiving home exercise.

  • Manual therapy and exercise delivered to

lumbo-pelvic, hip, knee, foot and ankle regions based on reduced motion or pain in these regions.

  • Both groups improved

function scores.

  • Group receiving

supervised manual therapy and ex had greater improvements. (52% vs 26%)

  • Larger effect compared

with many other exercise studies.

Contralateral Cane Use

  • ↓ KAM by 7-10%
  • ↓ cumulative loading by:

– ↑ stride length – ↓ cadence

  • ↓ GRF by 25%-35%

during gait

  • Most effective if placed as

far laterally as possible without inducing sx.

Gait Retraining Approaches

  • Goal to reduce knee adduction moment
  • Foot progression angle (toe out)
  • Trunk sway (lateral)
slide-25
SLIDE 25

Departm ent of Physical Therapy

  • Motion capture and instrumented

treadmill

  • Patient tailored altered foot progression

angle or lateral trunk to get 10% ↓ in KAM

  • Vibration motors on tibia (foot angle) and

scapula (trunk sway) for feedback during training

Task-Specific Training

  • Use the specific task that is problematic

as the training tool

  • Can work on strength and joint mobility

in context of the task

  • Provide opportunity to improve motor

patterns in context of task

  • May consider task modifications
