She was diagnosed with osteoarthritis by her physician. She is coming to your clinic for help with ideas. • She never really focused on resistance training and would like your guidance. • She is healthy, without major risks and no signs/symptoms. • She has been continuing to walk and ride a bike without too much problem but feels unfulfilled compared to her former running days. 1. What questions might you ask Andrea as you determine what TYPE of exercise to safely prescribe for her aerobic component? 2. Using the FITT principle from ACSM for Arthritis to prescribe an aerobic and flexibility plan, with specific considerations covered. Focus on Andrea’s case and how you’d best get started. 3.
