Q

What is an application of the overload principle in OA. (The cycle)

A
  1. Oa live sedentary lifestyle
  2. Demands on muscle decreases
  3. Muscle cells atrophy
  4. Muscle strength and mechanical force decreases

Q

What are 3 benefits of fixed wight machines?

A
  1. Can target the larger muscles more efficiently because the body is pretty stable
  2. Easier for proper mvmt technique
  3. Low risk of injury

Q

What are 2 disadvantages of fixed weight machines?

A
  1. Minimal resistance can be too great for frail OA
  2. Increments in resistance can be too large for frail OA
17
Q

What is the main difference between seated and standing cable pulley machines?

A

Standing =postural muscles=closer to ADLs

18
Q

Which two benefits only apply to resistance bands and not free weights.

  1. More convenient than machines
  2. Lower risk of injury
  3. Allow for endless variation of exercises
  4. Easier for movement initiation
  5. Functional mvmt patterns that mimic both everyday activities and sport specific activities
  6. Takes some skill to learn the proper technique.
A

2 & 4

19
Q

What is the main reason for choosing all major muscle groups?

A

Maintaining muscle balance

20
Q

Define heavy, moderate, and light loads.

A
  1. Greater than or equal to 90% 1RM
  2. 70-90% of 1RM
  3. Less than 70% 1RM
21
Q

T/F: frail OA should complete 1RM tests.

A

False, may be too intense. Do 8 RM instead

22
Q

What percent of RM is needed to increase dynamic muscular strength (recommended for beginners)?

A

45-50%

23
Q

T/F: frail OA can tolerate loads up to 80% 1 RM

A

True

24
Q

What percent of RM is recommended for advanced lifters to stimulate muscle cell hypertrophy and strength development?

A

80% RM

25
Q

What was the conclusion of the variable resistance study?

A

Despite similar increases in strength and FFM, the VR group decreased difficulty of performing the carry task more than the HR group.

26
Q

What were the increases in FFM of the HR and VR groups respectively?

A

1.8 kg and 1.9 kg

27
Q

Why do you exercises larger muscle groups first?

A

To allow for increased intensity with less muscle fatigue

28
Q

T/F: OA should do sets to failure.

A

Flase, should not do more than 2-3 sets

29
Q

What are the strength parameters?

A

60-80%

8-10 reps

30
Q

What are the power parameters?

A

40-60%

6-10 rep

31
Q

What are the endurance parameters?

A

Less than or equal to 65%

12-15 reps

32
Q

To improve functional capacities of OA should you focus on strength or power?

A

Power

33
Q

What are the two main goals of RT?

A
  1. Preserve independent living
  2. Improve health and longevity
34
Q

Which had higher scores with power training?

Balance, chair rise time, gait speed, strength?

A

All except strength

35
Q

Should you start with high or low volume for periodization

A

High and slowly decrease

36
Q

Should you start with high or low resistance in periodization?

A

Low and gradually increase

37
Q

How long should you warm up muscles?

A

10min

38
Q

Why shouldnt you hold your breath during exercise?

A

BP will go up.

39
Q

How many hours rest should be between RT sessions of the same muscle groups?

A

48 hrs
