Chapter 21 - Training for Anaerobic and Aerobic Power Flashcards
What are common vital signs?
- Temperature
- Pulse
- Respiratory Rate
- Blood Pressure
What are some uncommon vital signs?
- Pain
- Blood Glucose
- Functional Status
- Shortness of Breath
What is an emerging vital sign?
- Cardiorespiratory Fitness
What is the take-away from the study on cardiorespiratory fitness and long-term mortality?
- Cardiorespiratory fitness is a modifiable indicator of long-term mortality
- Health care professionals should encourage patients to achieve and maintain high levels of fitness
What are the 4 principles of exercise training?
- Overload
- Specificity
- Individual Differences
- Reversibility
What is the overall objective of exercise training?
Stimulate
- Structural adaptation
- Functional Adaptations
- Improve performance in specific physical tasks
Is the basic approach to physiological conditioning similar for men and women?
- YES
What does achieving appropriate overload require?
Manipulating Training:
- Frequency
- Intensity
- Duration
Who does the concept of individualized and progressive overload apply to?
- Athletes
- Sedentary Persons
- Disabled Persons
- Cardiac Patients
How do you acquire health-related benefits from regular exercise?
- High Volume
- lower effort intensity
How do you improve aerobic capacity with regular exercise?
- Higher intensity but lower volume than required for general health
What does exercise training specificity refer to?
- Adaptations in metabolic and physiological function that depends upon the type and mode of overload imposed
What is the most effective evaluation of sport-specific performance?
- When measurement closely simulates actual activity and/or muscle mass/movement patters the sport requires
What must overload do when training for specific aerobic activities?
- engage appropriate muscles
- Exercise at a sufficient level to stress the cardiovascular system
What is seen when measuring aerobic capacity for an exercise dissimilar to one the athlete trained in?
- Limited improvements
How does specific overload of muscles with endurance training enhance performance?
Facilitates ____ by trained muscles
- O2 transport
- O2 use
Where do local adaptations occur when training?
- In specifically trained muscles
- Apparent in exercise that activates that musculature
Why does more blood flow to specific muscles after training?
- Increased microcirculation
- More effective redistribution of cardiac output
- Combined effect of both factors
What is an example of training specificity?
- 15men: swim 1hr/day, 3time/week, for 10 weeks at HR of 85-95%
- Large increase in VO2max and Max Swim Time
- Small increase in VO2max and Max Run Time
When do optimal training benefits occur?
- When exercise programs focus on individual needs and participants’ capacities
Describe the reversibility Principle
- Detraining occurs rapidly when stopping training
How quickly can detraining occur following termination of training program?
- only 1-2 weeks
Describe the time frame of detraining following the termination of a training program
1-2 Weeks
- reduced metabolic capacity
- reduced exercise capacity
Several months
- Most improvements fully lost
What are the Anaerobic system changes that occur with training?
Increased
- anaerobic substrates
- quantity/activity key enzymes
- capacity to generate high level blood lactate during all-out exercise
-levels of glycogen/glycolytic enzymes
-motivation/tolerance
