Ch1 Scientific Rationale For Integrated Training Flashcards
Overweight
A person with BMI of 25 - 29.9
Or who is between 25-30lbs over the recommended weight for their height
obesity
Considerably overweight
Refers to a person with BMI of 30 or greater
Or who is at least 30lbs or more over recommended weight for their height
blood lipids
Also known as cholesterol and triglycerides Carried into blood stream by protein molecules known as High density lipoprotein(HDL) "good" Low lipoproteins (LDL) "bad"
Diabetes Mellitus
Condition where glucose is unable to enter cells either because pancreas is unable to produce insulin or cells are insulin resistant
Type 1 and type 2
Type 2 associated with obesity
Type 1 juvenile diabetes
Deconditioned
Lost of physical fitness
Person may have muscle imbalances, decreased flexibility, lack of core and joint stability
proprioception
Cumulative sensory input to the central nervous system from all mechanoreceptors that sense body position and limb movement
proprioceptively enriched environment
An unstable yet controllable physical situation in which exercises are performed that causes body to use internal balance and stabilization mechanisms
phases of training
Smaller divisions of training progressions that fall within three building blocks of training
muscular endurance
A muscles ability to contract for an extended period
Neuromuscular efficiency
Ability of the neuromuscular system to enable all muscles to efficiently work together in all planes of motion
Prime mover
Muscle that acts as the initial and main source of motive power
Superset
Set of 2 exercises that are performed back to back with out any rest
Rate of force production
Ability of muscles to exert maximal force output in a minimal amount of time
