Q

What are the 2 key differences between personal training and periodization for athletics

A

-In personal training timing of goal achievement is less constraining
- In personal training more flexibility to go off-script, call audible, etc.

Q

Describe central adaptations

A
  • Motor cortex activity increases when: force increases and new skills are being learned
  • Many neural changes take place along the descending corticospinal tracts

Q

How to stimulate bone formation

A
  • Load longitudinally (especially axial skeleton)
  • Progressively overload as tissues adapt
  • Vary exercise selection to include new force vectors

Q

Cardiovascular adaptations with fitness

A
  • Chronic resistance training reduces the CV response to an acute bout of resistance exercise
  • Ventilation generally doesn’t limit resistance exercises & is either unaffected or only moderately improved by anaerobic training
17
Q

Intensity/load by training goal

A
  • Strength: ≤6 reps; 2-6 sets; 2-5min rest
  • Power: ≤5 reps; 3-5 sets; 2-5min rest
  • Hypertrophy: 6-12 reps; 3-6 sets; 30sec-1.5min rest
  • Muscular endurance: ≥13 reps; 2-3 sets; ≤30secs
18
Q

What is the 2-for-2 rule/method for progression of weight

A
  • If person can perform ≥2 “extra” reps in final set for two training sessions, add weight
19
Q

What is a general aerobic training program design

A
  • Establish exercise mode: specific activity performed
  • Establish training frequency
  • Establish training intensity: HR, RPE, metabolic equivalents, power measurement
  • Establish exercise duration
  • Have a plan for exercise progression
20
Q

Older adults ________ their ability to make significant improvements in strength & functional ability

A
  • Maintain
21
Q

Safety recommendations for older adults and resistance training

A
  • Should be prescreened
  • 5-10min warm-up
  • Caution with excess loading
  • Avoid Valsalva maneuver (BP concerns)
  • 48-72hrs of recovery
  • Pain free ROM
