how does phase 3 help a client with the goal of hypertrophy?
it will place larger volumes of stress through the body to force cellular changes that result in muscle hypertrophy
177
how does phase 4 help a client with the goal of hypertrophy?
it is used to increase the strength capacity to allow the client to train with heavier weights in the future (this will equate to higher volumes of training and greater hypertrophy)
178
the goal of improving general sports performance requires the client to increase overall....
proprioception, strength, and power output (or rate of force production)
179
phases used for clients with the goal of improving general sports performance
phases 1, 2, and 5 (optional 3 and 4)
180
how does phase 1 help a client with the goal of improving general sports performance?
will prepare the connective tissues and muscles for the higher demands of training to follow (helping to prevent injury)
181
how does phase 2 help a client with the goal of improving general sports performance?
it will promote greater overall strength endurance to prepare the client for the greater demands of phase 5
182
what type of periodization is used for clients with the goal of improving general sports performance?
undulating periodization
183
what does undulating periodization allow clients to do?
train at various intensities during the course of a week, eliciting multiple adaptations once a certain level of fitness if achieved (phases 1 or 2 and 5)
184
true or false: clients should perform high-intensity cardiorespiratory exercise on the same day as a high-intensity OPT workout
FALSE
| -a high-intensity OPT workout should be paired with a low intensity cardio program, and vice versa
