Answer 0

Question 1

Dose-Effect Curve

Answer 1

helps fitness professional determine the proper “dose” of exercise to bring about (or increase the likelihood of) a desired “effect” (response)

Question 2

components of the dose-effect (5)

Answer 2

potency
slope
maximal effect
variability
side effects

Question 3

potency

Answer 3

the “potency” of exercise is relatively unimportant as long as the “dose” is appropriate

Question 4

slope

Answer 4

describes how much of an effect comes from a change in dose

Question 5

types of responses to exercise (4)

Answer 9

acute responses
rapid response
linear response
delayed response

Question 10

acute responses to exercise

Answer 10

responses occur with one or several exercise bouts but do not improve further

Question 11

rapid response to exercise

Answer 11

benefits occur early and then plateau

Question 12

linear response

Answer 12

gains are made continuously over time

Question 13

delayed response to exercise

Answer 13

responses occur only after weeks of training

Question 14

Does-Response curves vary depending on…

Answer 14
