Ch 8

Question 1

Cardiorespiratory fitness

Answer 1

The ability of the circulatory and the respiratory systems to supply oxygen-rich blood to skeletal muscles during sustained physical activity

Question 2

Overtraining

Answer 2

Excessive frequency, volume, or intensity of training, resulting in fatigue (which is also caused by a lack of proper rest and recovery)

Question 4

Specific warm up

Answer 4

Low intensity exercise consisting of movements that mimic those that will be included in the more intense exercise that is to follow

Question 5

Intensity

Answer 5

The level of demand that a given activity places on the body

Question 6

Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max)

Answer 6

The highest rate of oxygen transport and utilization achieved at maximal physical exertion

Question 8

Type

Answer 8

The type or mode of physical activity that an individual is engaged in

Question 9

Enjoyment

Answer 9

The amount of pleasure derived from performing a physical activity

Question 12

Integrated cardiorespiratory training

Answer 12

Cardiorespiratory training programs that systematically progress clients through various stages to achieve optimal levels of physiologic, physical, and performance adaptations by placing stress on the cardiorespiratory system

Question 13

Time

Answer 13

The length of time an individual is engaged in physical activity

Question 15

Oxygen uptake reserve (VO2R)

Answer 15

The difference between resting and maximal or peak oxygen consumption

Question 16

Frequency

Answer 16

The number of training sessions in a given timeframe

Question 17

Ventilatory threshold (Tvent)

Answer 17

The point during graded exercise in which ventilation increases disproportionately to oxygen uptake, signifying a switch from predominantly aerobic energy production to anaerobic energy production

Question 22

General warm up

Answer 22

Low intensity exercise consisting of movements that do not necessarily relate to the more intense exercise that is to follow
