Exercises should emphasize supported surfaces that offer stability against gravity and focus on restorative flexibility, isometric contractions, limited ROM strengthening, static balance, core activation, spinal stabilization and muscular endurance.

exercises tht promote dynamic balance and active flexibility
62
What should resistance training done in phase 2 include?
exercises that build muscular endurance and promote mobility.
63
Resistance exercises in phase 2 should build muscular endurance and promote mobility, what should the emphasis of the exercises themselves be on?
the emphasis should be on control of the motion, deceleration via controlled eccentric muscle actions.
64
What must a client prove they can do before moving to phase 3 of the ACE IFT Model?

65
What is the general timeframe for movement training?
2-8 weeks
66
During what phase of the ACE IFT Model do we start to really focus on the client's goals?
phase 3 - this is when exetrnal resistance and force can be added
67
What is linear and undulating periodization?
Linear periodization focuses on gradual increase of one variable such as load.
Undulating periodization changes the volume and weight loads from day to day.
68
What should a PT do if their client relapses during phase 3? Why?
They should reassess the client's stability, mobility and movement patterns before reintroducing load training. This will rule out any postural deviations, muscle imbalances and movement errors occured during the relapse.
69
What does phase 4 emphasize on?
Specific training to improve speed, agility, quickness, reactivity, power - this is generally for athletes.
70
Strength training performed during load training increases __________ ______ 1 production, but does not specifically address ______2 of force production.
1 muscular force
| 2 speed
71
Why does power training enhance the velocity of force production?
It improves the muscles ability to generate a large amount of force in a short time.
72
What 2 things can power be defined as?
the velocity of force production and rate of performing work.
73
What are the 2 power equations?
```
power = force x velocity
power = work / time
```
74
How can clients improve power through phase 4?
By manipulating the time of force production through different loading techniques such as quick accelerations/deccelerations.
75
What are 4 skill-related parameters that will directly benefit from enhanced power?
speed
agility
quickness
reactivity
76
What is the goal of power training?
To increase rate coding or the speed at which the motor units stimulate the muscles to produce force.
77
What is rate coding?
the rate at motor units are recruited for action (contraction)
78
What is the stretch reflex?
a muscle contraction in response to stretching within the muscle
79
How is rate coding increased/enhanced in phase 4?
by maximizing the stretch reflex by minimizing the transition time between eccentric and concentric phases.
80
Why is maximzing the stretch reflex good for enhancing power in phse 4?
because the faster a muscle can convert from lengthening to shortening, the greater the force it can generate.
81
Why is power training applied with integrated full body exercises?
because force production begins at the point of contact with the ground but transitions through the legs, hip, core, shoulder complex and arms.
82
What is the primary focus of phase 1 of the cardiorespiratory training component?
To develop an initial aerobic base in clients who have been sednetary or near-sedentary.
83
phase 1 of the cardiorespiratory training component looks to build improvements in the client's?
health, endurance, energy, mood and caloric expenditure.

| 20 - 30
85

92
What is the difference between training in phase 4 to phase 3 of cardiorespiratory training?
Phase 4's sessions are 20 mins to several hours in length as their intervals are shorter but much more intense and therefore require longer recovery intervals.
