Q

Specificity:

A

Adaptations to training are highly specific to the nature of the training activity and should be carefully matched to an athlete’s specific performance needs.

Q

Reversibility:

A

Training programs must include a maintenance plan to ensure that the gains from training are not lost

20
Q
  • Progressive Overload
A
  • The training stimulus must be progressively increased as the body adapts to the current stimulus.
21
Q

Hard/Easy

A

Programs must alternate high-intensity workouts with low-intensity workouts to help the body recover and achieve optimal training adaptations.

22
Q

Periodization

A

The gradual cycling of specificity, intensity, and volume of training to achieve peak levels of fitness for competition.

23
Q

CV Health

A
  • Reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
  • Improves blood lipid profiles
  • Lowers blood pressure
  • Enhances insulin sensitivity
  • Decreases inflammation markers (C-reactive protein).
  • Benefits include individuals with preexisting CVD
24
Q

Resistance exercise enhances;

A

–blood glucose utilization, reduces resting blood pressure, and improves vascular function .

25
Strength training improves function
–manages chronic conditions such as arthritis and low back pain.
26
Regular physical activity has been linked to
improved cognitive function, including better memory, attention, and decision-making abilities, particularly in older adults
27
Evidence indicated regular PA is associated with a reduced risk of
premature death, chronic diseases, and functional decline, contributing to enhanced QOL in older age.
28
PA guidelines
At least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity per week. Muscle-strengthening activities on two or more days per week. can lead to a longer, healthier life .
29
Moderate Talk Test
can talk not sing
30
Vigorous Talk Test
cant say more than a few words
31
Moderate RPE Scale
4-6
32
Vigorous RPE
7-8
33
- Duration - Guidelines
Minimum bouts of 10 minutes (though recent guidance allows flexibility) Can be accumulated throughout the day
34
Aerobic Mode of Exercise
walking, swimming, biking
35
Strength Mode of Exercise
Resistance bands, bodyweight, weightlifting
36
Flexibility Mode of Exercise
yoga, dynamic stretches
37
Balance & Neuromotor Mode of Exercise
tai chi, single leg movements
38
Short Sprints train
ATP-PC system
39
Longer sprints, middle distance train
glycolytic system
40
Longer distance trains
oxidative system
41
Variables to Manipulate for Interval Training
- Purpose/ Goal - Rate of the exercise interval - Distance of the exercise interval - Number of repetitions and sets during each training session - Duration of rest or active recovery interval - Type of activity during the active recovery interval - Frequency of training per week
42
Training programs are designed to train
one or more of the three metabolic energy systems
43
Interval training consists of
repeated bouts of high- to moderate-intensity exercise interspersed with periods of rest or reduced-intensity exercise
44
Exercise intensity and recovery rate can be monitored with a
HR monitor
45
Continuous training has
no rest intervals and can vary from LSD training to high-intensity training
46
Fartlek training
a system of distance training in which the terrain and pace are continually varied.
47
Interval-circuit training combines
interval training and circuit training into one workout
