1
Q

Evidence Based Practice

A

Making informed decisions and taking action based on the best available evidence.

2
Q

Sprint Interval Training

A

A form of interval training shown with repeated bouts of 20 - 30 second submit sprints.

3
Q

Posture

A

The arrangement of the body and its limbs.

4
Q

Elasticity

A

Temporary or recoverable elongation of connective tissue.

5
Q

Plasticity

A

Capable of undergoing continuous deformation without rupture or relaxation.

6
Q

Viscoelasticity

A

The property that allows tissues to exhibit both plastic and elastic behaviors.

7
Q

Stretch-reflex

A

An involuntary motor response that, when stimulated, causes a suddenly stretched muscle to respond with a corresponding contraction “

8
Q

Ballistic Stretching

A

Dynamic stretching characterized by rhythmic bobbing or bouncing motions representing relatively high-force, short-duration movements.

9
Q

Plyometrics

A

High-intensity movements, such as jumping, involving high-force loading of body weight during the landing phase of the movement that take advantage of the stretch-shortening cycle.

10
Q

Anaerobic Capacity

A

The sustainability of power output for brief periods of time.

11
Q

Contraindication

A

Any condition that renders some particular movement, activity, or treatment improper or undesirable.

12
Q

Stretch-Shortening Cycle

A

An active stretch (eccentric action) of a muscle followed

by an immediate shortening (concentrlc action) of that same muscle. A component of plyometrics.

13
Q

Amortization Phase

A

The transition period between the eccentric and concentric actions during plyometrics; a crucial part of the stretch-shortening cycle that contributes to power development.

14
Q

Speed-strength

A

The ability to develop force at high velocities.

15
Q

Speed-endurance

A

The ability of someone to maintain max velocity over extended time.

16
Q

Macrocycles

A

The longest timeframe in a periodized training program, usually a period of six months to one year.

17
Q

Mesocycles

A

The mid-length timeframe of a periodized training pragram, usually two weeks to a few months long.

18
Q

Microcycles

A

The shortest timeframe in a periodized training program, usually one to four weeks long.

19
Q

Detraining

A

Reversal of adaptation to exercise.
