Core Stabilizer exercises

101
Q

linear periodization

A

Linear periodization is the gradual progression model that slowly increases volume and intensity over-time throughout a mesocycle. You would accomplish this by increasing your load, volume, or intensity variables every 1 to 4 weeks, allowing your body to adapt in a safe and consistent manner.

102
Q

Nonlinear Periodization Model (Undulating

A

Example: a weightlifter following a nonlinear periodization program would perform a barbell squat two times a week. The first day he would complete sets 4 sets of 5 repetitions (of a weight that is 87% of his 1 repetition max) to accomplish strength goals. His second day he would complete 3 sets of 12 repetitions (of a weight that is 67% of his 1 repetition maximum) to accomplish hypertrophy goals.

112
Q

four assessments made

A

hese assessments are divided into four categories: anthropometric measurements (body size or body composition), cardiovascular assessments, muscular fitness assessments, and sport-skills assessments.

113
Q

authentic

A

Autogenic inhibition involves stimulation of the Golgi tendon organ (GTO) during a muscular contraction. The GTO is a proprioceptor responsible for sensing increases in tension during both concentric and eccentric actions. Performing a muscular action activates the GTO causing that muscle’s fibers (specifically, the agonist’s fibers) to relax. Under GTO activation, the agonist muscle is inhibited causing the fibers to lengthen.

an example would be static stretching

114
Q

reciprocal inhibition

A

Reciprocal inhibition involves stimulation of the muscle spindle during the stretching of muscle fibers. The muscle spindle wraps around the muscle fibers in a parallel fashion and will stretch as muscle fibers stretch. When a muscle group is stretched, the muscle spindle activates causing the stretched muscle (agonist) to contract and the antagonist muscle group to relax. Reciprocal inhibition is also known as the stretch reflex.

115
Q

Golgi Tendon Organ

A

opposite of muscle spindle. Golgi allows the stretch. Muscle spindle retracts

116
Q

PNF

A

proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF). PNF is a stretching practice that promotes the response of neuromuscular mechanisms through the stimulation of proprioceptors in an attempt to gain more stretch in a muscle. A practical example of this method is to produce a low-grade (50% of maximum force) contraction within a muscle for six to 15 seconds immediately before having a partner passively stretch the muscle. The pre-stretch contraction reduces muscle spindle activity within its associated muscle (the muscle that is about to be stretched) so that the brain more willingly accepts an increase in range of motion during the impending stretch.

117
Q

muscle spindles

A

sense muscle stretch. causes muscle activation. contraction

118
Q

Golgi tendon

A

sense muscle tension or stretch. Can sense tendon stretching. tries to protect the muscle. Let’s the muscle relax

119
Q

Phosphagen

A

as well as during short-term high-intensity activities lasting about 1 to 30 seconds in duration, such as sprinting, weight-lifting or throwing a ball.

120
Q

Anaerobic

A

requiring large bursts of energy over somewhat longer periods of time (30 seconds to three minutes max,

121
Q

aerobic

A

onger-duration, lower-intensity activities after the phosphagen and anaerobic systems have fatigued.

122
Q

Submaximal Talk Test for VT1

A

Submaximal Talk Test for VT1 is a formal assessment used to determine heart rate at VT1. This test requires preparation and equipment and continuous monitoring of heart rate to avoid missing VT1. T

123
Q

talk test

A

informal. on treadmill/bike. conversation. for rates of RPE
