Ch.8 Cardiorespiratory Fitness Training Flashcards
Integrated cardiorespiratory training
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 cardiovascular system
Cardiorespiratory fitness
The ability of the circulatory systems to supply oxygen rich blood to the skeletal muscles during sustained physical activity
General warm-up
Low intensity exercise consisting of movements that do not necessarily relate to the more intense exercise that is to follow
Specific warm-up
Low intensity exercise movements that mimic those that will be included in the more intense exercise that is to follow
What does FITTE stand for?
Frequency, intensity, type, time, enjoyment
Frequency
Refers to the number of trading sessions in a given time frame
Intensity
The level of demand that a given activity places on the body
Maximal oxygen consumption (Vo2 max)
The highest rate of oxygen transport and utilization achieved at maximal physical exertion
Oxygen uptake reserve (Vo2 R)
The difference between resting and maximal or peak oxygen consumption
Ventilatory threshold ( Tvent)-
The point during graded exercise in which ventilation increases disproportionately to oxygen uptake signifying a switch from predominately aerobic energy production to anaerobic energy production
