Chapter 1 - The Scientific Rationale for Integrated Training Flashcards
Alteration of a muscle length surround a joint
Muscle imbalance
The condition of being considerably overweight, referring to a person with a body mass index of 30 or greater, or who is at at least 30 pounds over the recommend weight for their height
obesity
a person with a BMI of 25-29.9, or who is 25 to 30lbs over the recommended weight for their height
overweight
cholesterol and triglycerides, carried in the bloodstream by protein molecules known as high-density lipoproteins and low-density lipoproteins
blood lipids
chronic metabolic disorder caused by insulin deficiency which impairs carbohydrate usage and enhances usage of fats and proteins
diabetes mellitus
a state of lost physical fitness which may include muscle imbalances, decreased flexibility, and a lack of core and joint stability
deconditioned
the cumulative sensory input to the central nervous system from all mechanoreceptors that sense body position and limb movement
proprioception
an unstable, yet controllable physical situation in which exercises are performed that cause the body to use its internal balance and stabilization mechanisms
proprioceptively enriched environment
smaller division of training progressions that fall within the building blocks of training
phases of training
a muscle’s ability to contract for an extended period of time
muscular endurance
the ability of the neuromuscular system to enable all muscles to efficiently work together in all planes of motion
neuromuscular efficiency
the muscle that acts as the initial and main source of motive power
prime mover
set of two exercises that are performed back to back without any rest time between them
superset
ability of muscles to exert maximal force output in a minimal amount of time
rate of force production
