chapter 10 Flashcards
cardiorespiratory fitness
the ability of the circulatory and respiratory systems to supply oxygen rich blood to skeletal muscles during sustained physical activities
integrated cardiorespiratory training
cardiorespiratory programs that systematically progress clients through various stages to achieve optimal levels of physiological, physical, and performance adaptations by placing stress on the cardiorespiratory system
general warm-up
low intensity exercise that consist of movements that do not reflect the intense exercise to follow
specific warm-up
low intensity exercise that consist of movements that do reflect the intense exercise to follow
frequency
the number of training sessions in a given timeframe
intensity
the level of demand that a specific activity places on the body
maximal oxygen consumption VO2max
the highest rate of oxygen transport and utilization achieved at maximal physical exertion
oxygen uptake reserve VO2R
the difference between resting and maximal oxygen consumption
ventilatory threshold (TVent)
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
time
the length of time an individual is engaged in a specific activity
type
the type of physical activity in which an individual is engaged
