1
Overstriding
A walking or running gait in which the foot hits too far in front of the body’s center of gravity, causing a braking effect. (NSCA CPT, pg. 358)
2
Understriding
A walking or running gait in which the
foot takes too short a stride, causing wasted energy. (NSCA CPT, pg. 358)
3
Freestyle
A swimming stroke with a straight and prone body position, an overhand arm motion, and a flutter kick. (NSCA CPT, pg. 358)
4
Six variables of Safe Participation
Proper hydration, Appropriate Clothing and footwear, warm-up and cool-down, prescription of exercise frequency, intensity, and duration, proper breathing technique, and exercise program variation. (NSCA CPT, pg. 348)
5
Cardiovascular Machines
Treadmill, Stair Climber, Elliptical Trainer, Stationary Bicycles, Rowing Machines. (NSCA CPT, pg. 350)
6
Nonmachine Cardiovascular Exercise
Walking, Running, Swimming, Group Exercise Class. (NSCA CPT, pg. 356)
7
Overpronation
The foot collapses too far inward on the arch with each foot strike. (NSCA CPT, pg. 349)
8
Neutral Foot Strike
The foot hits where it should. (NSCA CPT, pg. 349)
9
Underpronation
Foot strikes are too much on the outsides of the feet and have too little inward roll. (NSCA CPT, pg. 349)
10
Frequency of Cardiovascular Exercise guidelines
2 - 5 sessions per week. (NSCA CPT, pg. 349)
11
Intensity of Cardiovascular Exercise Guidelines
50 - 85% HRR. (NSCA CPT, pg. 349)
12
Duration of Cardiovascular Exercise Guidelines
20 - 60 minutes. (NSCA CPT, pg. 349)
13
Stride Frequency
The amount of strides you make within a given time when you are running. (NSCA CPT, pg. 358)
