Q

How does smoking impact heart health?

A

smoking causes arterial walls to constrict; increases BP; increases stickiness of platelets; decreases oxygen carrying capacity of blood

21
Q

Identify examples of flexibility as either static or dynamic.

A

static- being able to hold the joing at its greatest ROM- sit and reach
dynamic - the ability to move the joints through its full ROM

22
Q

What are the 4 training principles? Be able to identify examples.

A
  • Overload- frequency, intensity, duration
  • Specificity- train the body parts you want to see improvement in
  • Individuality- what works for you might not work for someone else
  • Reversibility- if you don use it you loose it!
23
Q

What are the repetition ranges for making the most gains in muscular strength? Muscular endurance?

A

3-7

15-25

24
Q

What is DOMS and what causes it?

25
Q

When does loss of flexibility generally begin?

A

3rd decade of life

26
Q

What type of muscle fibers are associated with aerobic activity? Anaerobic?

A

aerobic-slow twitch

anaerobic- fast twitch

27
Q

Identify examples of strain vs. sprain.

28
Q

What is the relationship between physical activity/physically fit students and test scores?

A

high fitness students scored much higher on achievement test than low fitness students (reading and math)

29
Q

What is the stretch reflex and how do we avoid it?

A

when you strecth a muscle fast, a reflexive contraction takes place, results in risk of muscle tearing or injury

30
Q

Identify concentric, eccentric and isometric contractions.

A

concentric- muscle contraction where muscle shortens and joint angle decreses
eccentric- muscle contration where muscle lengthens and joint angle increases
isometric- muscle contraction where muscle length and joint angle do not change

31
Q

What are the 5 stages of behavior change? Are they linear? Identify given examples and/or hallmarks of each stage.

A

1) Precontemplation- dont want to change;think about changing a behavior(denial)
2) Contemplation-give change some thought ( maybe need to start working out this semester)
3) Preparation- actually starts to get ready to make a change (buy a membership to the gym)
4) Action-have been active 3 or more times a week for 3-6 months
5) Maintenance- have been active 3 or more times a week for 6 or more months

32
Q

What is Wolff’s Law?

A

bones adapt structurally to resit forces acting on them

33
Q

How long should you hold a stretch? At which point does the extra stretching become ineffective?

A

30 seconds

holding it longer than 30 seconds does not seem to increase the benefit of the stretch
