A

STABILIZATION ENDURANCE TRAINING

134
Q

A CLIENT IN STABILIZATION ENDURANCE TRAINING WILL TYPICALLY SPEND HOW MUCH TIME IN THIS PHASE ?

A

ABOUT 4 WEEKS

135
Q

SECOND LEVEL OF TRAINING IN OPT MODEL FOCUSES ON MAIN ADAPTATION OF STRENGTH WHICH INCLUDES WHAT ?

A

STRENGTH ENDURANCE
HYPERTROPHY
MAXIMAL STRENGTH

136
Q

DESIGNED TO MAINTAIN STABILITY WHILE INCREASING AMOUNT OF STRESS PLACED ON BODY FOR INCREASED MUSCLE SIZE AND STRENGTH

A

STRENGTH LEVEL

137
Q

T OR F: STRENGTH LEVEL IS FOR ANYONE WHO DESIRES TO INCREASE CALORIC EXPENDITURE, MUSCLE SIZE, MUSCLE STRENGTH AND BONE MINERAL DENSITY

138
Q

FOCUS OF STRENGTH PERIOD OF TRAINING

A

INCREASE

  • STABILITY OF CORE MUSCLE TO STABILIZE PELVIS AND SPINE UNDER HEAVIER LOADS THROUGH COMPLETE ROM
  • LOAD BEARING CAPABILITIES OF MUSCLES, TENDONS, LIGAMENTS AND JOINTS
  • VOLUME OF TRAINING
  • METABOLIC DEMAND BY TAXING ATP-PC AND GLYCOLYSIS ENERGY SYSTEMS TO INDUCE CELLULAR CHANGES IN MUSCLE (WEIGHT LOSS OR HYPERTROPHY)
  • MOTOR UNIT RECRUITMENT, FREQUENCY OF MOTOR UNIT RECRUITMENT, AND MOTOR UNIT SYNCHRONIZATION (MAXIMAL STRENGTH)
139
Q

3 PHASES OF STRENGTH PERIOD OF TRAINING IN OPT MODEL

A 
PHASE 2 (STRENGTH ENDURANCE TRAINING) 
PHASE 3 (HYPERTROPHY TRAINING)
PHASE 4 (MAXIMAL STRENGTH TRAINING)
140
Q

HYBRID FORM OF TRAINING THAT PROMOTES INCREASED STABILIZATION ENDURANCE, HYPERTROPHY AND STRENGTH

A

STRENGTH ENDURANCE (PHASE 2)

141
Q

USES SUPERSET TECHNIQUES IN WHICH MORE STABLE EXERCISE (SUCH AS BENCH PRESS) IS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED WITH A STABILIZATION EXERCISE WITH SIMILAR BIOMECHANICAL MOTION (SUCH AS STABILITY BALL PUSH UP)

A

STRENGTH ENDURANCE (PHASE 2)

142
Q

HIGH AMOUNT OF VOLUME CAN BE GENERATED IN THIS PHASE OF TRAINING

A

STRENGTH ENDURANCE (PHASE 2)

143
Q

SPECIFIC FOR THE ADAPTATION OF MAXIMAL MUSCLE GROWTH, FOCUSING ON HIGH LEVELS OF VOLUME WITH MINIMAL REST PERIODS TO FORCE CELLULAR CHANGES THAT RESULT IN OVERALL INCREASE IN MUSCLE SIZE

A

HYPERTROPHY TRAINING (PHASE 3)

144
Q

PHASE THAT FOCUSES IN INCREASING THE LOAD PLACED ON TISSUE OF BODY

A

MAXIMAL STRENGTH TRAINING (PHASE 4)

145
Q

MAXIMAL INTENSITY (STRENGTH) IMPROVES WHAT ?

A

RECRUITMENT OF MORE MOTOR UNITS
RATE OF FORCE PRODUCTION
MOTOR UNIT SYNCHRONIZATION

146
Q

IN MAXIMAL STRENGTH TRAINING PHASE, THE GOAL OF THIS PHASE OF TRAINING IS PRIMARILY MAXIMAL STRENGTH, PT WILL WANT TO INCREASE WHAT ?

A

INTENSITY (LOAD) AND VOLUME (SETS)

147
Q

3RD LEVEL OF TRAINING, DESIGNED TO INCREASE RATE OF FORCE PRODUCTIONS (OR SPEED OF MSUCLE CONTRACTION)

A

POWER LEVEL

148
Q

THIS FORM OF TRAINING USES ADAPTATIONS OF STABILIZATION AND STRENGTH

A

POWER LEVEL

149
Q

FORCE MULTIPLIED BY VELOCITY =? (F X V =?)

150
Q

T OR F: ANY INCREASE IN EITHER FORCE OR VELOCITY WILL PRODUCE AN INCREASE IN POWER
