day 1 - principles of physiological adaptation and/or physical training

Question 1

overload principle (def)

Answer 1

greater than normal stress that causes cellular adaptation and increased capacity

one session, ACUTE

Question 2

progression principle (def)

Answer 2

continued increases in stress over time that cause additional adaptation and capacity

over time, CHRONIC

Question 3

recuperation principle (def)

Answer 3

short-term period of reduced stress or no stress to allow for cellular recovery and adaptation

Question 4

example(s) of the overload principle

Answer 4

walking more than normal in a day

lifting heavier weights

doing more repetitions

Question 5

example(s) of the progression principle

Answer 5

increased frequency

increased intensity

increased duration

Question 6

reversibility principle (def)

Answer 6

long-term period of reduced or no stress that causes a loss of adaptation and decreased capacity (ACL tear)

Question 7

principles of physical adaptation (5)

Answer 7

1) overload
2) progression
3) recuperation
4) reversibility
5) specificity

Question 8

specificity principle (def)

Answer 8

stress targeted to cause particular adaptions, often to meet a goal

Question 9

physical activity (def)

Answer 9

some kind of movement

(any movement, ex. walking around campus)

Question 10

exercise (def)

Answer 10

planned physical activity

(“I am going to go for a run”

Question 11
