Chapter 4- Training/Conditioning Flashcards
A quick stretch
Ballistic stretch
Weight lifting is what type of exercise
anaerobic
long distance running is what type of exercise
aerobic
there is no change in muscle length in this contraction
isometric
defined range of motion
flexibility
aka a stretched muscle
antagonist
your body adapting to demands
overload
this produces movement
agonist
one repetition maximum
strength
a repetitive muscle contraction
endurance
this is an increase in muscle size
hypertrophy
this means “speed play”
fartlek
this means alternating periods of work
interval
this is a decrease in muscle size
atrophy
What is the “SAID” principle?
specific
adaptation to
imposed
demands
what is strength versus power
strength: the maximum force exerted
power: is the maximum lift
Purposes of a warm up?
raises body temperature
it reduces injury
What is an isometric resistance device?
an object that doesn’t move
what is an example of an isotonic resistance device?
free weights
what is an example of an isokinetic resistance device
cybex
What helps improve endurance
enduring pain, discomfort, and fatigue
Why is flexibility important
decreases the risk of injury
does the heart get bigger or smaller in a workout?
bigger
when is the most dangerous time of an athletic competitive season?
the first 3-4 weeks
Is a passive or an active cool down better?
active
How to delay soreness
do a gradual warm up
what is soreness vs stiffness
soreness deals with circulation and stiffness deals with fluids
how to implement the overload principle?
resistance
reps of sets
rate/duration
