Question 1

RT training overload?

Answer 1

Consists of adding weight or reps normally.

Question 2

Flexibility progression?

Answer 2

Intensity, volume, duration, and frequency.

Question 3

Power, speed, and agility progressive overload?

Answer 3

Intensity, volume, and rest intervals. Along with resistance.

Question 4

Aerobic endurance progressive overload?

Answer 4

Volume, duration, and intensity.

Question 5

Specificity?

Answer 5

Training adaptations are specific to the stimulus applied.

Question 6

Angular specificity?

Answer 6

Strength at a specific joint angle.

Question 7

Closed-chain kinetic exercise?

Answer 7

Distal segments are fixed (leg press, squat, deadlift).

Question 8

Open-chain kinetic exercise?

Answer 8

Distal segment is freely moving (leg extension, leg curl).

Question 9

Unilateral training in RT progams?

Answer 9

Both unilateral and bilateral should be used in progressive overload.

Question 10

General-to-specific model?

Answer 10

Triangle that depicts the variation of training needed based on skill level. Low variation with non-trained individual and high variation with elite athletes.

Question 11

Effects of detraining?

Answer 11

Not all gains are lost and when training is resumed strength acquisition is high.

Question 12

Three most important principles in program design?

Answer 12

Progressive overload, specificity, and variation.

Question 13

When are programs most effective?

Answer 13

When supervised and based in individual’s needs.
