Relapse prevention involves identifying high-risk situations (travel, holidays) and planning coping strategies. Counterconditioning replaces behaviors, stimulus control modifies environment, reinforcement rewards.

Negative reinforcement strengthens behavior by removing aversive conditions (e.g., reduced guilt or stress after exercise). Positive reinforcement adds rewards. Punishment decreases behavior. Extinction removes reinforcement.

Evidence suggests maintaining weight loss requires higher activity volumes than general health: 60–90 minutes/day moderate intensity, often accumulated in bouts. Strength training is beneficial but insufficient alone. Shorter durations typically do not offset energy balance long-term.

Novice adults: 8–12 reps at 60–70% 1RM. Advanced lifters may use 1–6 reps for maximal strength. High reps target endurance.

The priority is to stop exercise and assess vital signs (HR, BP, symptoms). Dizziness and pallor may stem from hypoglycemia, hypotension, arrhythmia, or dehydration. Immediate assessment guides response: if symptoms resolve with rest and hydration, session may end safely; if persistent or worsening, activate EMS. Providing sugar (A) assumes hypoglycemia without confirmation. Continuing exercise (C) risks worsening condition. EMS (D) may be necessary if symptoms persist, but initial assessment informs urgency.
