T0: THE CITY COUNCIL COUNCIL NIFENG DATE
FROM: THE CITY ,,MANAGER rS.. OFFI.CE
SUBJECT: MANAGEMENT PHYSICAL FITNESS PROGRAM
PREPARED BY: Assistant City .Tanager
RECOMMENDED ACTION: The City Council approve a department head physical
fitness program and appropriate $5,000 to cover the
f
cost.
BACKGROUND INFGRMATION: Council requested that a physical fitness program for
department heads be explored.
We have had a physical fitness program in the Fire Department for the last two
years. The results of that program have beer! quite satisfactory in reducing
lost time injuries and sickness.
I am proposing a program modeled after the one in the Fire Department and to
have that program administered by—St. Joseph's Fitness Center. The program
would consist of three essential parts:
1. Health Risk Analysis
2. Fitness Assessment
3. Exercise Program
The health risk analysis is an individualized computer interpretation to predict }'
the relative risk of coronary-artery disease by evaluating stress levels,
exercise patterns, personal habits, family history, body fat, blood chemistry,
bloodpressure,. age weight, and pulse rate. The program estimates change in ;
risk if appropriate fife style changes occur.
The fitness assessment is designed to interpret the individual's cardiovascular
fitness level, body strength and flexibility and a recommended exercise
prescription with recommended goals.
The third phase of the program is to provide the facilities to exercise. The
Lodi City Employees' Association has a corporate membership at Twin Arbors
Athletic Club which offers a discount rate to City employees. The cost of an
individual menership is $40 per month.

Management Physical Fitness Program

In order to assure the employee i s serious and committed, it i s recommended
he/she have a financial stake in the program. It is suggested the employee pay
for membership in an athletic club and if he/she maintains the prbgram outlined
in the fitness assessment, the City would reimburse the employee one-half the
cost of the membership dues. Such amoun' not to exceed $20 per month.
The cost for the progr f ows :
Annual Health Basic Analysis S 35
Semi -Annual Fitness Assessment 80
Dues for 12 Months 240
Total $355
The program would be voluntary on the part' of the employee. If all management
employees participate, the annual cost of the program would be 54,970.
.The City fully supports this, conte t and urges the Council to approve the
program and appropriate $5,000 in t e Workers' Compensation Fund to fund the
program for the first year.
Respectfully submitted,

HEALTH RISK APPRAISAL
Test -_
This test predicts an individual's relative risk of coronary artery
disease estimates change in risk i1c appropriate life style changes
occur.
Assessments included in HRA:
A. fardiovascular Assessment
Coronary heart disease represents the leading health problem in
this country today. This is true for both men and women. General
aerobic fitness, blood lipid profiles, and blood pressure
assessments are critical determinants of overall cardio -vascular
health.
A _ Blood Lipid Panel
Test: A sample of blood is drawn under fasting
conditions.
Total cholesterol and relative concentrations of HDL
("good" cholesterol) , LDL ("bad" cholesterol) , and blood
triglycerides are determined.
Importance: Hyperlipidemia (high blood cholesterol)
represents one of these primary risk factors for
coronary artery disease. Proper exercise and diet have
been shown -to be effective intervention"s�
r,
2. Resting Blood Pressure
Test: A cuff and stethescope are used to measure
physiological resistance to blood flow, i.e., how "hard"
the heart must work to insure adequate distribution of
blood throughout the body.
Importance: High blood pressure (hypertension)
represents another primary risk factor of heart disease.
Exercise, fat reduction, and proper diet all can exert a
profound influence on high blood pressure.
B. Body Weight
Importance: Overweight (overfat) is associate6 with
increase risk for heart disease and other medical
problems, e. all -bladder dysfunction','
->p � g•, diabetes, 5
hypertension, etc. Also, general physical fitness is
influenced by the relationship of total body fat to Leaf
body mass (muscle) that a person possesses.
Test: Compares current body weight to suggested body
weight based on age, height, frame size and gender.
C. Questionnaire
Test: A paper/pencil self report of special variables
known to influence coronary artery disease, e.g.,
stress, nutrition, exercise habits, family history, etc.
Importance: Some of the more important determinants of
cardiovascular disease. relate to issues that only the
individual can report.

B. Body Composition Analysis (% bo -_f a
Test: 50% of all body fat is carried beneath the skin_
Calipers measure this subcutaneous fat on selected body
sites and allow for an estimate of the percent of one's
body weight which -,s fat.
importance: Excessive l y high ti, uy fat levels are
associated with increase risk for heart disease and
other medical problems, -.c., diabetes, gall bladder
dysfcnction, hypertension, etc. Also, general physical
fitness is influenced by the reittionship of total body
fat to lean body mass (muscle) that a person possesses.
