38
What does F.I.T.T stand for?
Frequency Intensity Time Type
39
What does S.A.I.D stand for and explain
Specific adaptation to Imposed Demand Body will react/respond to specific type of stress put on it, improvements gained are specific to the activity
40
What is Progressive overload
Because body gets used to a certain stimuli over time, you need to progressively increase intensity of training to see progress and trigger muscles
41
What is the “ceiling affect”?
You’ve recahed your genetic limit as to how much your body can improve in something naturally
42
The 3 basic needs for food
Energy Tissue growth/repair Regulation/maintenance of cellular functions
43
6 main nutrients w/ explanations of what they do for body and ex.
Carbohydrates- primary fuel for exercise/bodily functions (cereal, grains) Protein- used for body growth, tissue repair, blood clotting (eggs, fish) Fats- insulate the body, protect internal organs, and make up cell membranes (flaxseed, avocados, olive oil) Vitamins- vision, reproduction, lactation, maintenance of skin, formation of RBCs (vitamin C and K) Minerals- form structures in the body and regulate body processes (iron and calcium) Water- most important next to O2, regulates temp, removes waste, and maintains Ph balance
44
What can creatine help with?

45
What can creatine help with?
Giving short bursts of intense exercise fuel and increasing muscle mass
46
