Chapter 15: Cardiorespiratory Training Concepts Flashcards
The ability of the circulatory and respiratory systems to provide the body with oxygen during activity
Cardiorespiratory Fitness
The fundamental tasks needed to manage basic self-car activities, such as bathing, dressing, grooming, meal preparation and feeding, and homemaking
Activities of daily living (ADL)
The process and speed from which frequency, intensity, time and type are increased
Rate of progression
The level of commitment to a behavior or plan of action
Adherence
The state of having a disease
Morbidity
The state or a risk of death or dying
Mortality
The number of training sessions in a given timeframe
Frequency
The level of demand placed on the body by a given activity
Intensity
A mathematical formula used to estimate an individual’s maximal heart rate: 208 - (0.7 x age)
Tanaka formula
A predetermined exercising heart rate
Target heart rate
An aerobic test that measures the participant’s ability to talk or hold a conversation during an activity at carious intensity levels
Talk test
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
Ventilatory threshold (Tvent)
The point at which the body uses an equal mix of carbohydrate and fat as fuel sources
Ventilatory threshold 1 (VT1)
The duration an individual is engaged in a given activity
Time
The mode of physical activity in which an individual is engaged
Type
Excessive frequency, volume, or intensity or training, resulting in reduction of performance, which is also caused by a lack of proper rest and recovery
Overtraining
An exercise training method defined by intervals of near-maximal intensity broken up by relatively short rest periods
High-intensity interval training (HIIT)
Aerobic exercise that remains at a relatively constant intensity, including a stable heart rate and oxygen consumption
Steady-state (SS) aerobic exercise
The amount of pleasure derived from performing a physical activity
Enjoyment
The total amount of work performed in each timeframe, typically 1 week
Volume
Energy expenditure through daily activities outside of structured exercise, such as walking, completing household chores, and taking the stairs
Nonexercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT)
The way an exercise program advances in intensity and/or volume to continually challenge the individual
Progression
Low-intensity exercise consisting of movements that do not necessarily relate to the more intense exercise immediately following
General warm-up
Low-intensity exercise consisting of movements that mimic those to be included in the more intense exercise immediately following
Specific warm-up
Refers to the intensity level halfway between ventilatory threshold 1 (VT1) and ventilatory threshold 2 (VT2)
Midpoint
Process by which oxygen is transferred to the muscles from the lungs
Ventilation
The process of contracting the inspiratory muscles to move air into the body
Inspiration
