EXS117 Midterm 2 Flashcards
Transtheortical Model
To understand when people change behaviours; particularly addictive behaviours such as smoke, drugs and alcohol
Pre-Contemplation
- 6 months before people start thinking about changing a behaviour
- people don’t realize their behaviour is unhealthy
Contemplation
When people move from pre-contemplation to contemplation, they start recognizing their problematic behaviour
Preparation stage
Starts once the decisions to change behaviour is made
Action
Once preparation is complete, the next 6 months are for putting the plan in action
Relapse/Maintenance
Final change of change but prevented by relapse
Self-Efficacy
One’s confidence in one’s own ability to do something
ex. can you change your problematic behaviour
Process of Change (Cognitive/ Experimental)
- recognizing personal behaviour needs changing
- expressing feeling, reacting emotionally to the behaviour change in question
Process of Change (Behavioural)
- when people remove the cues or triggers for their behavioural problem
- substituting unhealthy behaviour with an alternate solution
- self-reward
Smart Goals
- Specific: written out as specifically as possible
- Measurable:
- Attainable: resources to complete your Goal
- Realistic
- Timeframe
Cardiorespiratory System
Goal is to obtain and circulate vital compounds throughout the body
Energy Production
Oxygen + cellular fuel (food)= Adenosine Triphosphate
Immediate/Explosive Energy systems
- quickest
- provides ATP for first 10-20 seconds
Non-Oxidative (anaerobic) energy system
- second quickest
- does not require oxygen to work
- used sugar to product atp
- associated with high-intensity and short duration movements
Oxidative energy system
- slowest energy system
- supplies energy for longer activities
- cellular + food=ATP
Adaptions of increased CR fitness
- heart gets stronger
- HR decreases
- bigger lung capacity
- more energy
HIIT Training
combines alternating high-intensity bouts and active rest bouts with exercise sessions
Muscular Strength
the ability of the muscles to exert a force over a single or maximal effort
Muscular endurance
the ability of the muscles to exert over a period of time or repetitions
Skeletel Muscle
muscle usually attached to bones that’s responsible for positioning and the movement of the skeleton
Cardiac Muscle
responsible for the contraction of the heart
Smooth Muscle
responsible for movement of food along intestines, contraction of blood vessels, pupils, etc
Motor Unit
how we contract a muscle
Isometric contraction
static contraction where the length of the muscle, or the joint angle does not change
Isotonic contraction
a moving contraction or dynamic contraction ever the muscle length changes and movement in the joint
Concentric contraction
causes the muscle to shorten
