Chapter 5 - Adaptations to Anaerobic Training Programs Flashcards
Actin
One of the main contractile proteins in muscle fibers
Anaerobic alactic system
Phosphagen and CP system.
Anaerobic lactic system
Glycolytic system.
Anaerobic training
Intense training that requires ATP regeneration at a faster rate than the capability of the aerobic system.
Bilateral deficit
Force produced when both limbs contract is lower than the sum of unilateral force production in each limb.
Bilateral facilitation
Force produced when both limbs contract is greater than the sum of unilateral force production in each limb.
Bone matrix
Collagen fibers that calcify into hydroxyapatite to form the bone structure
Bone mineral density (BMD)
Quantity of mineral deposited in a given area of bone
Collagen
The primary structural component of all connective tissue
Cortical bone
Hard outer bone layer that surrounds the trabecular bone
Cross-education
Unilateral resistance training increases strength and neural activity in the contralateral resting muscle
Cross-linking
Strong chemical bonds between collagen molecules
Detraining
A decrement in performance and loss of physiological adaptations following the cessation of anaerobic training or substantial reduction in volume, intensity, or frequency
Elastin
Elastic fibers found in ligament tissue
Electromyography (EMG)
Electrical measure of muscle activation
Fibrous cartilage
Tough cartilage found in intervertebral disks and at the tendon-bone junctions
Functional overreaching (FOR)
Excessive training leading to short term detriments in performance.
Hyaline cartilage
Articular cartilage found on the ends of bones
Hydroxyapatite
Calcium phosphate crystals - forms the bone matrix
Hyperplasia
increase in muscle fibers via longitudinal splitting in response to high-intensity resistance training.
Hypertrophy
Increase in muscle cross-section via the addition of new fibers or enlargement of existing fibers.
