General Principles Unit 2

Question 1

What is the alarm reaction stage

Answer 1

The first reaction to stressors the resistance is diminished our body is not used to it

Question 2

What is the resistance stage

Answer 2

If anybody or individual adapts to the stressor increased resistance occurs. alarm reactions disappear

Question 3

What is the exhaustion stage

Answer 3

Long continued exposure where is down the bodies resistance adaptation energy is exhausted alarm reaction signs reappear an event individual can eventually die not enough recovery

Question 4

Who created the general adaptation syndrome

Answer 4

Hans Selye in 1950

Question 5

How do we use the specificity principal

Answer 5

We should train the way we play we can specify by muscle group muscle action joints velocity range of motion

Question 6

What are the three points of the general adaptation syndrome

Answer 6

Alarm reaction ,resistance stage ,exhaustion stage

Question 7

What is the said principle

Answer 7

Specific adaptations to impose demands we should not expect to be oh to increase with resistance training

Question 8

How do we increased stress for resistance trainers

Answer 8

We can increase the weight increase the volume by increasing the reps increasing exercise is increasing the sessions and decreasing rest periods

Question 9

How can we increased stress for aerobic trainers

Answer 9

Increase the volume by increasing the distance and Teresa duration increase the speed and decrease the recovery

Question 10

What is overload

Answer 10

Simply putting more stress on the body that is used to it is a snapshot a moment in time

Question 11

What is progressive overload

Answer 11

Continually adding more stress on the body is used to and it’s can be in different ways variation plays a big role this is chronic

Question 12

What is periodization and what are the three levels and the three types of periodization

Answer 12

It was coined the 1960s it is systematic planning on training it is planned variation we don’t train the same way on and off season. Matveyev coin debt but tudor Bompa made it famous. The levels are macrocycles , meso cycles , and micro cycles. the types are linear , block, and undulating

Question 13

What are macrocycles

Answer 13

They are the largest division it could be several months to years. or even four years for Olympics

Question 14

What is a meso cycle

Answer 14

It is intermediate division this can last several weeks to several months even 12 months

Question 15

What is a micro cycle

Answer 15

The smallest division in his days two weeks we usually do week cycles

Question 16

What is linear periodization

Answer 16

This is the more traditional one usually three months and then we change the volume and change

Question 17

What is block periodization

Answer 17

We would do hypertrophy and then a whole new idea for the next block

Question 18

What is undulating periodization

Answer 18

Will use this for elite athletes they change on a daily basis

Question 19

What happens if we increased our flow of water

Answer 19

Our drain cannot handle it the sink overflowed we have insufficient recovery and could be overtrain to decrease the water we need to make the dream bigger by adding longer recovery and then the sink drain as fast as it fills with increased work capacity
