350608 VO BW1I - Models of Training in Consideration of Prevention and Rehabilitation (2025S)

The effect of physical activity, exercise and sport for prevention and rehabilitation can vary greatly depending on the forms of training carried out and the selected exercise norms (intensity, duration, frequency, exercise/break ratio, form of training, execution of movement, etc.). As a large number of epidemiological studies show, the right amount of exercise can be a necessary stimulus for maintaining health, performance and also promoting a successful ageing process. Targeted sports training can help a large number of organs to adapt their form and function. However, this plasticity is subject to certain rules and can only be optimised by setting the right training stimuli. Physical activity, exercise and sport are not only used for primary prevention, but are also becoming increasingly important in the treatment of illnesses. Based on evidence-based data, the implementation, mode of action and effectiveness of sport in prevention, therapy and rehabilitation in various selected areas of internal medicine, neurology and orthopaedics are presented.
Content:
Specifically, the course deals with the health-promoting potential of exercise and sport, with general principles of forms of training and components of exercise and sports therapy, with adaptation of the body to exercise; with the influence of physical activity, exercise and sport on life expectancy and mortality. In addition to an introduction to the respective clinical picture and epidemiological key data, the importance of regular physical activity, exercise and sport in the prevention, therapy and rehabilitation of this clinical picture is discussed, with a comparison of different forms of training.
