Chapter 17 - Program Design for Resistance Training Flashcards
1-Repetition maximum
The greatest amount of weight that can be lifted with proper technique for one repetition
2-for-2 rule
Method of progressing resistance load - if an athlete can perform 2 or more reps beyond the assigned load for a given exercise for 2 or more consecutive training days, weight should be added to that exercise for the next training session
Assistance exercise
Single-joint exercises targeting smaller muscles
Circuit Training
Multiple exercises performed sequentially with little rest
Compound set
Sequentially performing sets of 2 different exercises stressing the same muscle group
Core exercise
Multijoint exercises that recruit one or more large muscle areas
Exercise history
History of training that occured before athlete began a new or revised program
Exercise order
The order in which exercises are performed when following a resistance training program
Exercise selection
The specific exercises chosen when designing a resistance program
Goal repetitions
The intended number of repetitions on a set
Injury analysis
Examination common sites for joint and muscle injury and the causative factors in a given sport
Intensity
The weight lifted as a percent of a 1RM in the case of resistance training
Interset rest
Time dedicated to recovery between sets
Load
The amount of weight assigned to an exercise set
Mechanical work
The product of force and displacement (distance)
Movement analysis
An analysis of the body and limb movement patterns and muscular involvement
