A

type B

49
Q

discuss briefly the two types of training methods (modes) used in improving strength and explain when you might use them

A

dynamic- improve training throughout entire range of motion

isometric- improve strength at a specific angle such as in gymnastics

50
Q

list five factors that affect muscular flexibility

A

construction of the joint, fat around the joint, temperature of the muscle, previous injury to the joint/surrounding tissue, development/overdevelopment of the muscle at the joint

51
Q

what technique is best used to assess body composition and why

A

hydrostatic weighing. it is recognized as the industry standard and has a SEE of +/-.5%

52
Q

discuss two types of muscle fiber and explain both

A

slow-twitch - best in aerobic situations as they require oxygen to fire; recruited first
fast twitch - best in anaerobic situations as they do not require oxygen, takes intense/strenuous efforts to recruit

53
Q

list and explain the different stretch techniques

A
  • static
  • passive
  • ballistic
  • dynamic
  • controlled ballistic
  • proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)
54
Q

static

A

slow sustained stretching
muscles are lengthened gradually through a joint’s complete range of motion
most frequently used and recommended

55
Q

passive

A

performed with the aid of an external force applied by either another individual or an external apparatus

56
Q

ballistic

A

performed with jerky, rapid, bouncy movements

57
Q

dynamic

A

require speed of movement, momentum, and active muscular effort to help increase the range of motion around a joint or group of joints
preferred prior to competitive event

58
Q

controlled ballistic

A

done with slow, short, gentle sustained movements

properly performed can be safe

59
Q

proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)

A

uses reflexes and neuromuscular principles to relax the muscles being stretched

60
Q

describe the steps in PNF stretching

A
  • individual is positioned and assistant performs gentle stretch
  • individual pushes against assistant for 5-10 seconds
  • individual relaxes and assistant stretches individual farther
  • repeat 2-4 times
61
Q

what are some physiological benefits of adequate flexibility

A

greater range of motion, better posture, better balance, greater ability to perform tasks of daily living
