A

COORDINATION

17
Q

Body proportion used for classification and/or comparison
>Brock Lesner for example is an undeniably imposing specimen but when he tried out for the NFL he didn’t make the team and was released during tryouts.
The comparison would be Brock the wrestler and Brock the Football player.

A

Anthropometric measures

18
Q

Relating to stimuli that are produced and perceived within the body, especially those associated with the position and movement of the body.

A

PROPRIOCEPTIVE PATHWAYS

Q

Property of a tissue to become permanently deformed or altered

A

Plasticity

20
Q

Constitutes the supporting contact area of an object.

A

BASE OF SUPPORT

21
Q

The response rate from perception to action: including all info processing from the environment to the subsequent physiological response

A

Reaction time

22
Q

State of balance between continuing actions; force sums do not equal zero, but are close enough to maintain necessary and stability.

  • is needed for adequate energy transfer across a moving object as seen during a fade away jump shot, lateral “juke” move by a running back, or agile slashing with the ball in soccer.
A

Dynamic Equilibrium

23
Q

Point where the mass of an object is equally balance (aka Center of Gravity)

A

Center of mass

24
Q

Property of.

A

Stability

25
Q

Fitness measures related to overall functions, commonly associated with sports performance but are also related to overall health and quality of life: include Power, Speed, Agility, Coordination, and Balance.

A

PERFORMANCE -RELATED COMPONENTS OF FITNESS

26
Q

Transfer of energy by a force acting to displace a body of mass; is equal to the product of a force and the distance through which it produces movement.

A

WORK

27
Q

The time rate of change of position of a body without regard to direction.

A

SPEED

28
Q

Agility is affected by;

A

Experience, size, stability, Muscular Fitness, Power

29
Q

What are the 2 paradoxes exist within the strength and conditioning profession; they include perceptions that ?

A

strong = powerful

Heavy strength training = improved athletic performance.

30
Q

System of balance

-

A

VESTIBULAR

31
Q

Nerve impulses from effect sites to the central nervous system

A

AFFERENT

32
Q

Part of the cerebral cortex in the brain where the nerve impulses originate that initiate voluntary muscular activity.

A

MOTOR CORTEX

33
Q

All force sums equal zero, the body is stable and therefore will not be influenced to move in any direction unless the muscles creating forces fatigue, allowing counter forces to overcome the body mass

A

STATIC EQUILIBRIUM

34
Q

Force exerted through the body, equal and opposite to the force the body exerts on the ground.

-

A

GROUND REACTION FORCE

35
Q

Changing body positions rapidly relies heavily on ___________________. Therefore, it is easier to change direction by attaining a lower center of gravity at the point directional change.

A

DYNAMIC STABILIZATION

36
Q

Relating to stimuli that are produced and perceived within an organism, especially those connected with the position and movement of the body.
Coordination from a physiological standpoint relies heavily on _____________.

A

PROPRIOCEPTIVE PATHWAYS

37
Q

Is a matrix concept.
A method premeditated and progressive programming that accounts for specific stress within a number of given training cycles to prepare an athlete for the competitive season.

A

PERIODIZATION
