Exercise speed/rate

Question 1

Why is increasing the speed at which exercises or sequences of exercise is completed not always the best way to increase the intensity of the program?

Answer 1

When performing an exercise at a faster rate, it can potentially have an adverse effect on posture and joint.

Question 2

What should the participant be able to do before increasing the speed at which exercises up formed?

Answer 2

A participant must be able to perform the same exercise or activity with an extremely good form/technique at low speeds

Question 3

Who should highest speed exercises be reserved for ideally?

Answer 3

High speed exercise activity ideally reserve for people who are more conditioned and skilled

Question 4

When resistance exercise is performed at a lower speed, what is normally increased and why?

Answer 4

The intensity is normally increased than the time the muscles are under detention is extended (time under tension?)

Question 5

What do slower speeds normally mean?

Answer 5

Typically, they also mean greater control

Question 6

what do faster movements typically result in?

Answer 6

Faster movements typically result in shorter periods of time under tension and as such are more often than not less intense from a musculoskeletal perspective
