Example of a ZONE 2 cardiorespiratory activity and intensity level
Group exercise classes or spinning at 76-85% of maximal heart rate
Example of a ZONE 3 cardiorespiratory activity and intensity level
Sprinting at 86-95% of maximal heart rate
Type of training that has been found to be just as beneficial as traditional forms of cardiorespiratory training
Circuit training
The tendency of the body to seek the path of least resistance during functional movement patterns
relative flexibility
Name the four muscles of the movement system of the core
Latissimus dorsi, hip flexors, hamstring complex, quadriceps
Name the structures that make up the core
Lumbo-pelvic-hip complex, pelvic girdle, abdomen, and hip joint
Name the five muscles of the Local Stabilization System of the core
transverse abdominis, internal oblique, lumbar multifidus, pelvic floor muscles, diaphragm
What are the benefits of a warm-up
Increased heart rate and respiratory rate, increased tissue temperature, and increased psychological preparation for bouts of exercise
the normal extensibility of all soft tissues that allows the full range of motion of a joint
flexibility
The concept of muscles inhibition, caused by a tight agonist, which inhibits its functional antagonist
altered reciprocal inhibition
