considerations for resistive exercise Flashcards
untrained individuals should use what % of RM
40-70%
children, older or medically compromised should use what % of RM
30-50%
what is the average rep and sets
8-12 reps 2-4 sets
how much rest time for moderate intensity
2-3 mins
for those susceptible to fatigue should have how much rest time
3 minutes
when should you progress reps or weight
muscle fatigue is no longer observed
what individuals should use superset or triset
trained individuals
what is a superset
2 sets of exercise involving agonists and antagonists
what is a trip set
can be performed for 3 different muscle groups or for different fibers of the same muscle
periodization
systematic variation of exercise type, intensity and volume at regular intervals over a specified period of time
periodization is a training program for who
completive athletes
greater loads can be controlled with what type of contraction exercise
eccentric
what muscle contractions are more efficient
eccentric
When is there a greater incidence of DOMS?
high intensity eccentric exercise
what is DOMS
muscle pain and impairment that begins 12-24 hrs after exercise, peaks 48-72 hrs later
DOMS loss of strength peaks when
2 days
DOMS pain & tenderness usually peaks when
1-3 days
DOMS stiffness & swelling usually peaks when
3-4 days
what are the likely mechanisms of DOMS
- Microtrauma of muscle fibers
- myofibrillar damage at the Z-bands
- Changes in the mitochondria & membrane breakdown with an increase in WBC & prostaglandins
DOMS is NOT due to
-Lactic acid or spasm-pain
what are NOT effective interventions for DOMS
- cryotherapy
- electrotherapy
- massage
what is temporary relief interventions of DOMS
- compression sleeve
- topical analgesics
what is the best thing to do for DOMS
prevention
when does exercise induced muscle soreness develop
during or right after strenuous exercise when muscle fatigue is achieve
