Chapter 13 Flashcards
What are the 3 stages in the General Adaptation Syndrome?
Alarm reaction, resistance development, exhaustion
When pain or discomfort occurs in the muscles 24-72 hours
DOMS
When prolonged intolerable stressors produce fatigue and lead to breakdown in the system of injury
Exhaustion
The principle that states the body will adapt to the specific demands that are placed on it
SAID Principle or Principle of Specificity
For what does the acronym SAID stand?
Specific adaptation to imposed demands
The type of specificity that refers to the weight and movements placed on the body
Mechanical specificity
The type of specificity that refers to the energy demand placed on the body
Metabolic
The type of specificity that refers to the speed of contraction and exercise selection
Neuromuscular specificity
What are 3 performance adaptive benefits from resistance training?
Increased neuromuscular control, increased power, increased endurance
The ability to provide support to maintain correct posture during all movements
Stabilization
What are 4 characteristics of stabilization exercises?
High repetitions, low to moderate volume, low to moderate intensity, postural position that challenges stability
The ability to produce and maintain force production for a prolonged period of time
Muscular endurance
Low to intermediate repetition ranges with progressive overload that results in the enlargement of skeletal muscle fibers
Hypertrophy training
The ability of the neuromuscular system to produce internal tension to overcome an external force
Strength
Ability of the neuromuscular system to produce the greatest force in the shortest time
Power
