Which of the following contributes to the increases in strength seen after a period of heavy resistance training?
decrease in muscle fiber diameter
Increases in agonist motor unit recruitment
increases in neural inhibitory reflexes
Decreases in tendon stiffness
Increases in agonist motor recruitment
In regards to resistance training what would be most appropriate to improve the performance of a throwing athlete?
Submaximal resistance training with intermediate-high- high contraction velocities
What term is characterized by prolonged performance decrements (>2 months), chronic injuries, and neuroendocrine disturbances associated with increases in training intensity, or volume without adequate recovery
overtraining syndrome
What are the benefits of a dynamic warm-up period?
Increase in muscle temp, gradually elevates oxygen consumption, increased psychological readiness for performance
Given the same absolute exercise intensity and duration, who would be the expected to have a higher excess post oxygen consumption (EPOC), the trained or untrained individual?
Trained, untrained, or the same for both
untrained individual
What are the benefits of using elastic bands?
band are more easily transported compared to free weights. As the length of the band increases, more resistance is applied to the band, offering the potential for unique adaptations in variable ranges of motion.
