Q

What do Muscular Functional exercises focus on?

A

Core and Balance and they’re supposed to help you function better in other later exercises and also in everyday life.

Q

Energy Systems - ATP - CP powers the body for how long? Is it aerobic or anaerobic? List some examples

A

0-10 seconds. This system is anaerobic meaning it does not require oxygen. Lifting and sprinting primarily rely on this energy system

A

A performance or outcome goal represents a longer term change such as an increase in strength, or significant amount of weight loss. This is typically the clients long term goal.

22
Q

Stages of Learning - Cognitive Stage

A

Skill is first being learned. Movements are uncoordinated and jerky.

23
Q

Stages of Learning - Associative Stage

A

Clients are starting to master the basics and they’re ready for feedback that will help them refine their skill.

24
Q

Stages of Learning - Autonomous Stage

A

Clients perform a skill naturally and effectively and you the trainer are just more of an observer.

25
Q

Explain the “Tell-Show-Do” style of teaching

A

This means if we’re about to do a squat, I’ll tell my client how to do it. Then I’ll demonstrate it myself, then I’ll have the client do the exercise last.

26
Q

What does OARS stand for?

A

Open ended questions
eg. Why are you interested in trying to lose weight?

Affirmations
-These are compliments for your clients. use to boost morale and build rapport.

Reflective Listening
-Repeat something back to a client to show that you understood them.

Summarizing
-Same as reflecting but now you’re reflecting multiple pieces of information.

27
Q

What is Intrinsic Feedback and Intrinsic Motivation?

A

Intrinsic feedback is from with in the client themselves. They might start to feel good after working out. This feedback is the most important for long term success.

Intrinsic Motivation is the same. It comes from within.

28
Q

What is extrinsic motivation and extrinsic feedback?

A

Extrinsic motivation and extrinsic feedback come from the outside.

If I congratulate you for completing a workout that’s extrinsic feedback.

If you could win 5 free sessions for losing 20 pounds in 2 months, that’s extrinsic motivation.

29
Q

What are the 5 stages of the Transtheoretical Model?

A
  1. Pre-Contemplation
  2. Contemplation
  3. Preparation
  4. Action
  5. Maintenance
30
Q

Explain: Pre-Contemplation stage

A

People are physically inactive. They’re not intending on beginning an exercise program and they don’t see exercise as worth their time.

31
Q

Explain: Contemplation stage

A

People are inactive but thinking about becoming more active in the next 6 months. They’re still weighing the pros and cons of exercise but they’re starting to consider the benefits.

32
Q

Explain: Preparation stage

A

People in this stage are doing some physical acivity and preparing to adopt a more consistent activity program.

These people are only doing things like sporadic walking, but they’re ready to adopt an active lifestyle.

33
Q

Explain: Action stage

A

People are here when they’re engaging in regular physical activity but have been doing so for less than 6 months.

34
Q

Explain: Maintenance stage

A

People on this stage have been working out consistently for longer than 6 months

35
Q

Health Belief Model

A

People are more likely to change behaviour because of a threat rather than perceived benefits.

36
Q

What does PAR-Q stand for?

A

Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire.

Tells if your client is safe to exercise through yes and no questions.

A

Movement away from the midline of the body

45
Q

A concentric contraction is when:

A

a muscle shortens

46
Q

A eccentric contraction is when:

A

a muscle lengthens

47
Q

Synergists

A

assist prime movers or agonists with movements

48
Q

Static or Isometric contractions occur when:

A

there is no change in muscle length. (eg. plank)

49
Q

Macrocycle

A

The entire periodized plan. It can last up to a year or so.

50
Q

Mesocycle

A

A specific block of training to achieve a specific goal. They’re roughly a month long

51
Q
