Q

Weight belts should only ben worn:

A
  1. When performing exercises that place stress on lower back
  2. During sets that involve near-maximal or maximal loads

Worn too often: reduces opportunity for abdominal musculature to be further trained

Q

Well constructed programs are desgined from 3 principles

A
  1. Specificity
  2. Overload
  3. Progression

Lack of any of these = less desirable results and/or injury

Q

What is the SAID principle;
what is over load?
and what is progression?

A

SAID
(1) Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands
—Train what you wanna grow/
—what you need to performanve

Overload
—Refers to workout/training intensity
—Proper overload training = ↓ risk of overtraining while ensuring adaptations still occur
—Increased loads, # of sessons etc.

Progression
—Intensity of training must become progressively greater for continued adaptations
—Gradually increasing weight, adding more exercises or changing them

Q

How do you determine your one rep max (1RM)

A

only for core exercises
1RM = (1 + 0.0333 x reps) x load

Determine the athlete’s multiple-RM based on the number of repetitions planned for that exercise (the goal repetitions)

80% of 1RM
100= Hypertoaphy

Q

Assigning Load/Repetitions Based on the Training Goal

A
  • Use relatively heavy loads if the goal is strength or power.
  • Use moderate loads for hypertrophy.
  • Use light loads for muscular endurance.

Q

When to increase load?
How much of a weight increase?

A

2-for-2 rule:

Q

What is Volume? Load Volume?

A

Volume – total repetitions (sets x reps) or total amount of weight lifted (aka, load-volume) in a training session

load-volume: calculated by multiplying the number of sets by the number of repetitions times the weight lifted per repetition (sets x reps x load)

Q

Volume is based on:
Strength & Power
Hypertophy
Muscular Endurance

A

Strength & Power —Heavy
LOW REP—HIGH WEIGHT
* 6 or fewer reps
* 2-6 sets

Hypertophy —Moderate
MODERATE WEIGHT AND REPS
* Higher volume
* 6-12 reps
* 3-6 sets
* 3 or more muscle groups

Muscular Endurance—Light
HIGH REPS LOW WEIGHT
* 12 or more reps
* 2-3 sets
* High reps–low load

Q

Rest Periods for:
Strength
Power
Hypertrophy
Muscular endurance

A

Rest period – the time dedicated to recovery between sets and exercises

Strength
* 2-5 mins (Phosppagen system)

Power
* 2-5 mins (Phosppagen system)

Hypertrophy
* 30 sec – 1.5 mins (Growth hormone, to build muscle)

Muscular endurance
* less than 30 secs (No breaks for endurance)

23
Q

Why should we warm up before we work out?

A

*Shunts blood to area
* Muscles can fire and relax faster
* Improvement in the rate of force
* reaction time
* Lowered viscous resistance (Stiffness)
* Improved oxygen delivery
* Increased blood flow to active muscles
* Enhanced metabolic reactions

24
Q

A proper warm-up is __ to the sport or activity

25
Does **static stretching** prevent injury or muscle soreness? Is it a warm up?
No; Its a cool down and relaxes the muscles
26
Does **dynamic streching** improve performance?
Yes (Moving while stretching)
27
How do you properly warm up?
**10 general — 10 specific** **General warm up:** —5-10 min (slow continuous activity) **Specific Warm–up** —similar to the sport —8-12 mins of sport specific dynamic strenches
28
Define Flexibility
Flexibility – measure of range of motion (ROM) – has static and dynamic components
29
What is ROM?
degree of movement that occurs at a joint
30
Flexibility can improve performance by------ joint movement and —–risk of injury... if inflexibility is present
increasing; decreasing
31
Define Static Flexability
**Static Flexibility:** —range of possible movement about a joint and its surrounding muscle during passive movement – No Voluntary muscles activity – External force (gravity, partner, machine etc.) = Stretch force
32
Define Dynamic Flexability
**Dynamic Flexibility**: available ROM during active movements – Voluntary muscle actions
33
What are factors that affect flexability?
* Joint structure * Ageandsex * Connectivetissue * Weight training with limited range of motion * Muscle bulk * Activitylevel
34
What determines range of motion?
Joint structure
35
What are 3 types of joint mobility?
**Ball-and-socket joints** (hip/shoulder) = greatest ROM (tri-planar) –**Condyloid joint** (wrist) significantly less ROM (bi-planar) – **Hinge joint** (elbow) = even less ROM (uni- planar)
36
How does age and sex affect flexability? What is Fibrosis?
***Younger = more flexible than older*** — **Fibrosis**- connective tissue replaces degenerative muscle fibers ***Females = more flexible than males*** — because less muscle mass + activities
37
How does Connective Tissue affect flexability?
Connective Tissue – may limit ROM Tendons, ligaments, sheaths, and capsules **Elasticity**: the ability to return to original resting length after a passive stretch **Plasticity**: the tendency to assume a new and greater length after a passive stretch
38
Improvements in ROM as a result of stretching may be due primarily to the connective tissue adaptations (––––).
plastic potential
39
How does Weight training with limited range of motion
40
How does Muscle bulk limit ROM?
41
How does Activity level?
42
Each exercise session should be preceded by -- to -- minutes of general warm-up and -- to -- minutes of sport-specific dynamic stretching.
5 to 10; 8 to 12
43
When should a dynamic stretching be done?
before full work out
44
When should static streching be done?
affter work out (cool down)
45
What are guidelines for dynamic stretching?
5 to 10 reps progressivley increase ROM Increase speed of motion
46
What is stretch reflex? Is it triggared by static stretching?
Stretch reflex— muscles spindles activated by Rapid strech Static streching does not triggar it. But Ballistic (bouncing) does
47
What are muscle spindles?
Proprioceptors that monitor changes in muscle length
48
What are Golgi Tendon Organs?
Inhibits—Forcably relaxes muscles to reduce force ––sensitive to increases in muscular tension – Located at musculotendinous junction – Causes muscle to reflexively relax
49
Autogenic inhibition:
Actively contracting muscle before passive stretch –The tension build-up in muscle (contraction) stimulates GTO = reflexive relaxation during stretch
50
Reciprocal inhibition:
relaxation in muscle opposing the muscle experiencing ↑ contractile force —Tension in contracted muscle stimulates GTO & causes reflexive relaxation of the stretched muscle (Flex quads while stretching hamstrings)
51
What does PNF stand for?
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Stretch –—Temporarly increases range of motion
52
Isometric and concentric contraction
Isometric=hold concentric = opposite (antagonists) contracting
53
3 basic types of PNF stretching techniques
Hold-relax – Contract-relax – Hold-relax with agonist contraction
54
Hold-Relax:
1. Passive pre-stretch (take joint to normal end ROM) 2. Isometric contraction (“hold”) 3. “Relax” – greater passive stretch (due to autogenic inhibition)
55
Contract-Relax:
1. Passive pre-stretch 2. Concentric contraction (through full ROM) 3. Greater passive stretch (due to autogenic inhibition)
56
Hold-relax with Agonist Contraction:
1. Passive pre-stretch 2. Isometric contraction 3. Passive stretch with contraction of opposing muscle group Final stretch is greater due to reciprocal inhibition AND autogenic inhibition; Most effective PNF stretching technique
