Exam 2 Flashcards
(70 cards)
Which is a staple principle that should be in ALL training programs if the goal is improving
Progressive Overload
Which of the following would decrease performance over time?
Under training and overtraining
Given that the session would be inherently difficult, If we were to increase the intensity, what should happen to volume
Decrease
Overreaching is most associated with
Optimal physiological adaptations and performance
Optimal treatment of overtraining syndrome is….
reduced intensity and/or rest for weeks/months
What is Periodization?
The planned manipulation of training variables (loads, sets, and repetitions) order to maximize training adaptations to prevent the onset of overtraining syndrome
instensity and volume over a period of time
metacycles and blah blah ask lindsey
Humans are
homeothermic
* Internal body temperature regulated, nearly
constant despite environmental temperature
changes
Thermoregulation
- Thermoregulation: regulation of body
temperature around a physiological set point
Acclimation
short-term
adaptation to environmental
stressor (days/weeks)
Acclimatization
long-term
adaptation to environmental
stressor (months/years)
Volume and Intensity Relationship in Periodization
Volume decreases, while intensity increases
volume = reps x sets
more reps higher volume
Overtraining syndrome ASK LINDSEY
It looks different in everyone
accumulation of fatigue
High levels of fatigue
Decrease in performance
blood pressure, heart rate, sleep changing (poor)
never want to get to this
Overtraining
loss of benefits
injury
performance decreases
no additional improvements
Not all fatigue products of overtraining
Undertraining
minor physiological adaptation and no change in performance
Overreaching
Want to be here when chasing the gains
Dip in performance after training so you are able to adapt and become bigger strong and faster after
Optimizing Training Model on Slides STUDY GO TO IT
Excessive Training
Volume and intensity at an extreme
Volume and Intensity inverseley related when increases together there is negative effects
You wont be able to perform as well in a…..
hot enviorment than a cold enviorment
Why would an athlete take a beta blocker for performance
Archers use it
Enhance physical steadiness
The preoptic anterior hypothalamus POAH is our bodies thermostat?
True or False
True
Vasodilation occurs when we need to
Vasocontriction occurs when we need to
Vasodilation - Cool down
Vasocontriction - Warm up
Sweat contents Na and Cl can change as one becomes more fit? True or Flase
True - be able to retain
K or Potassium will stay the same or steady
Blood doping is defined by…..
Any means by which red blood cell count increases
Overtraining Syndrome Treatment and Prevention
CAUSES CORTISOL LEVELS TO RISE
Unexplained decrease in performance
Reduced intensity or rest and counseling to deal with stress
Prevention: Periodization Training Adequate caloric intake
