The Class Project includes two (2) sections. 

First section: Literature review (60% of grade):

You are required to search information that addresses the following topic: “The potential effects of exclusive aerobic exercise training for the prevention and treatment of major chronic diseases.” 

The literature review must include ONLY peer-reviewed scientific articles. You need to cite at least five or more different scientific publications. You might use the link below when searching for peer-reviewed articles. 

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed

**The first section should address, report, discuss, explain, and summarize questions such as: what is known about the topic (e.g., inactivity, amount of physical activity, chronic diseases, etc.); the positive and/or negative effects of aerobic training, the potential assessments needed; the recommendations for program implementation (e.g., supervised or non-supervised), the potential benefits and outcomes, etc. **

Second Section: Case Study – Exercise Prescription (40% of grade):

Provide a prudent, yet effective and comprehensive exercise prescription (i.e., aerobic, resistance, and flexibility training) for losing weight for middle-age woman (age; 46 years old) whose physician has advised her to shed 20 pounds, of excess weight. You will need to explain in full detail the justification for the implementation of health appraisal and pre-assessments during an aerobic exercise training program. Be sure to address the FITT principle and then explain how you would apply the training principles (i.e., progressive overload, specificity, periodization, etc.) into her training program. 

Please be sure to provide the rationale (in other words, you are required to explain in full details each of your statements) for each of your recommendations and suggestions during the early stages of her potential exercise prescription (i.e., risk stratification, pre-assessments, exercise testing, starting point, etc.). In addition, please calculate and classify her BMI accordingly. Height = 5 feet 6 inches (1 foot = 12 inches; 1 inch = 2.54 cm); weight = 169 pounds

Background: Currently she doesn’t have to much free time during the week to engage in regular exercise training; however, she has decided that she needs to start doing something in order to take care of herself. She has been inactive for the past two years; however, she used to do some Pilates and yoga twice a week. Now she realizes that she needs to engage in a more comprehensive and structured exercise program.

In previous weeks we have been reviewing the prevalence, mortality and morbidity associated with breast cancer. This is a topic of extreme public and personal interest. Primary care providers deal with the diagnosis, and the screening of breast cancer on a daily basis. Therefore, in this discussion we will discuss about the importance of understanding the advantages and limitations of its screening

                      My Goals and Walden University Vision and Mission

            In 2011 I graduated from Nursing School.  I knew I wanted work in the Emergency Department.  I had finished my practicum in an ED and was slotted to be hired once I passed my NCLEX.  As life would have it, I wouldn’t be able to take that job until year later.  In the meantime, I toughed it out as a floor nurse, and honed my skills.  I knew that floor nursing was not in my 10-year plan, so I made it a point to get all the experience I could to prepare myself for a career as a nurse. My journey since becoming an RN has been an amazing one.  I have completed Critical Care fellowships, worked beside some of the finest physicians, and now with all my experiences, I need to become a Nurse Practioner.  I am currently working in the Operating Room and have absolutely fallen in love with Orthopedics.  Becoming an Orthopedic Nurse Practioner will allow me to treat patients in clinic as well as assist the surgeon to increase mobility in those requiring surgery.

            I found Walden University during a school fair at my current hospital.  I spoke with a representative who, in my opinion, made the choice very easy.  I did research other online programs, but I always came back to Walden University.  The ability for me to attend a program and still be able to work full time was a must.  I felt like this University had my best interest in mind after reading the School of Nursing’s (SON) vision and mission statement.  The mission statement states “Walden University provides a diverse community of career professionals with the opportunity to transform themselves as scholar-practitioners so that they can effect positive social change.”  (Walden University, 2011a) I feel as though Walden University will assist me to be in control my transformation from Registered Nurse to Nurse Practioner.  

Incorporation of Social Change

            Everyday our society experiences change whether swift or gradual.  I want to promote positive social change by integrating Walden University’s views with my own.  “Positive social change results in the improvement of human and social conditions.” (Walden 2011b, para.1) I want to be part of that change, I want to be part of the improvement, I want to use my knowledge and experience to help improve the way we live together as human beings.  I feel like Walden University will provide me with the tools needed to make this vision a reality.
