Chapter 6: Concepts of Integrated Training

Question 1

Hypertrophy (178)

Answer 1

Enlargement of skeletal muscle fibers in response to overcoming force from high volumes of tension.

Question 2

Function (179)

Answer 2

Integrated, multiplanar movement that involves acceleration, stabilization, and deceleration.

Question 3

Integrated Training (179)

Answer 3

A comprehensive training approach that combines all the components necessary to help any client achieve optimum performance.

Question 4

General adaptation syndrome (179)

Answer 4

How the kinetic chain responds and adapts to imposed demands. How the body responds and adapts to stress.

Question 5

Overtraining syndrome (180)

Answer 5

Excessive frequency, volume, or intensity of training, resulting in fatigue; also caused by a lack of proper rest and recovery.

Question 6

Homeostasis (182)

Answer 6

The ability or tendency of an organism or a cell to maintain internal equilibrium by adjusting its physiological processes.

Question 7

Principle of Variation (182)

Answer 7

Rationale for challenging the kinetic chain with a wide variety of exercises and stimuli.

Question 8

Set (182)

Answer 8

A group of consecutive repetitions

Question 9

Autogenic inhibition (186)

Answer 9

A process by which neural impulses that sense tension are greater than the impulses that cause muscles to contract, providing an inhibitory effect to the muscle.
