Q

Benefits of Exercise

A

Exercise also reduces risk for chronic
diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, and obesity.
Regular exercise can even improve emotional
health and overall wellbeing. Fitness
improvements include the heart’s ability to
pump blood, increased muscle size, and
improved flexibility.

Q

Does race, gender, and economic status play a part in physical activity?

A

Yes, it is shown that White people, and males have higher physical activity rates than their non-white, and female counterparts. People who have more education and household income are also more likely to be physically active than those who are not.

Q

Components of Health-Related
Fitness

A

In order to carry out daily activities without
being physically overwhelmed, a minimal level of fitness is required. To perform daily activities
without fatigue, it is necessary to maintain
health in five areas: cardiorespiratory
endurance, muscular strength and endurance,
flexibility, and body composition. These five
areas are called the components of health-
related fitness.

Q

Why are the Components of Health-Related Fitness important?

A

Development of these areas will
improve your quality of life, reduce your risk of

Q

Cardiorespiratory endurance

A

Cardiorespiratory endurance is the ability to carry out prolonged, large muscle, dynamic movements at a
moderate to high level of intensity. This relates to your heart’s ability to pump blood and your lungs’ ability to take in oxygen.

Q

Skill-Related Components of Fitness

A

there are 6 skill-related components that assist
in developing optimal fitness: speed, agility,
coordination, balance, power, and reaction
time. Although important, these areas do not
directly affect a person’s health

Q

Overload Principle

A

of stress applied during exercise must
exceed a threshold level to stimulate
adaptation.

25
Q

What does I or Intensity in FITT stand for?

A

The degree of difficulty at which the exercises are carried out.
Ex. moderate to vigorous activity intensity, which equals 40-85% of Heart Rate Reserve, or 55%-90% of percentage of Max heart rate.

26
Q

What does the first T or Time in FITT stand for?

A

The amount of time you are doing the exercise.
Ex. 20 - 60 minutes per session or accumulation of (50 minutes per week). Sessions must be continuous for 10 minutes or more.

27
Q

What does the second T or Type in FITT stand for?

A

Specific type of exercise (type matches goals)
Ex. Use large muscle groups and exercises specific to cardio respiratory exercise.

28
Q

Volume

A

Frequency and Time in the FITT Principle. The term used to describe “how much” stress is being applied by combining the duration and frequency of exercise.

29
Q

Progression Principle

A

A principle relating to how much additional stress that can safely be introduced to gradually improve fitness
without risking injury or overuse.

30
Q

Principle of Specificity

A

The principle of stress, suggesting activities should be closely centered around the primary outcome goal,
i.e. train the way you want to adapt.

31
Q

ATP

A

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is energy for the body.

32
Q

Principle of Rest and Recovery (Principle of Recoperation)

A

The concept that adaptation not only requires overload
but also requires rest to avoid over stressing
the body.

33
Q

Periodization

A

A method of organizing workouts into blocks or periods. These cycles consist of work/stress periods and rest periods.

34
Q

Overtraining Syndrome

A

A condition of chronic stress from physical activity
affecting the physical and psychological states of an individual or athlete.

35
Q

Training phases can be organized on a…

A

Daily, weekly, monthly, and even multi-annual
cycles, called micro-, meso-, and
macrocycles, respectively.

36
Q

Overtraining Syndrome symptoms

A
  • weight loss
  • loss of motivation
  • inability to concentrate or focus
  • feelings of depression
  • lack of enjoyment in activities
    normally considered enjoyable
  • sleep disturbances
  • change in appetite
37
Q

Principle of Reversibility

A

The principle that adaptations
to stress can be lost over time if training is
modified or stopped.

38
Q

VO2 Max

A

VO₂ max refers to how much oxygen your body can absorb and use during exercise.

38
Q

Do genes effect training effects?

A

Yes, experts say that they can effect 47% of training effects. There are differences even within families.

39
Q

Atherosclerosis

A

Causes arteries to harden and become clogged with
plaque, which can break apart, move to
other parts of the body, and clog smaller
blood vessels.

40
Q

Hypertension

A

Having blood pressure at or above
140 mm/HG systolic, 90 mm/Hg
diastolic is associated with increased
risk of heart disease.

41
Q

Dyslipidemia

A

Having cholesterol levels that
exceed recommendations (130
mg/dL, HDL below 40 mg/dL), or
total cholesterol of greater than 200
mg/dL increases risk.
