A

Exercise type

22
Q

This exercise method leads to changes in the heart’s ability to pump blood to the functioning muscles across the body, which increases general cardiovascular health.

A

Cardiovascular Fitness

23
Q

is also linked to many health changes, including a reduced risk of many cancers, decreases in total cholesterol, blood pressure, and body fat levels.

A

Cardiovascular exercise

24
Q

A successful plan should involve the heart and all the main muscle groups fighting toward resistance and developing strength, stamina, and endurance in different combinations.

A

Strength Training

25
Q

The most basic routine involves __ to ___ sets of _____ to ___ repetitions for building strength.

A

1 to 3 sets of 10 to 12 repetitions

26
Q

How much you exercise is an essential aspect of fitness to make progress healthy but consistent.

A

Frequency of exercise

27
Q

This prescription mostly starts two or three days a week and progresses or four or five days a week.

A

Frequency of Exercise

28
Q

What is the ideal duration of daily exercise?

A

20 to 60 minutes per day

29
Q

The most crucial element of an active, healthy, and enjoyable program is your

A

Exercise prescription’s strength

30
Q

This is where the expert or trainer’s abilities are tested. Each person responds to exercise differently; it is essential to find the right intensity and a balance between effort and rest. Trainers use heart rate as a basic measure of exercise intensity guidelines.

A

Intensity of Exercise

31
Q

At the intensity of exercise, a beginner may start at a maximum heart range of ____ percent. How about a professional athlete?

A

beginner- 50%
professional athlete- 90% of their optimum heart rate during intensive training

32
Q

Your exercise program will usually follow a similar order, but this varies depending upon your training goals.

A

Exercise Session Order

33
Q

All programs will begin with ______

A

Warm up

34
Q

All programs will end with _______

A

cool down and stretching

35
Q

This is how your doctor or trainer keeps you on track and attaining your target of fitness. Moreover, you and your teacher need daily input and open contact.

A

Exercise Progression

36
Q

What are the three separate 6-week phases of rates of progression for new exercisers?

A
  1. initial conditioning
  2. fitness improvement\
  3. fitness maintenance
37
Q

Are among the top two factors for getting fitting prescriptions?

A

Health and efficiency

38
Q

A successful workout plan is versatile and adaptable and can be changed regularly and easily when moving you toward your goals. Adjustments are a regular and continuous medication part of the workout for the rest of your life. You’ll find you need to adjust your routine regularly, try new things, take breaks, and increase your time and intensity over the years and decrease.

A

Exercise Modifications

39
Q

Skills and movements are of higher quality when fatigue doesn’t impair the trainee’s ability to sequence movements properly.

A

Overload

40
Q

is a method of overloading where quality and quantity are used to master specific capacity or series of moves and resolve and eliminate errors

A

Repeated practice of a skill or a series of moves beyond necessary performance

41
Q

To ensure that outcomes continue to improve over time, the training intensity’s degree needs to increase continuously above the adapted workload.

A

Progression

42
Q

What is the most common and most applicable form of progression?

A

Increasing weight

43
Q

Progression can also be accomplished by adjusting

A

pace
number of exercises
the difficulty of exercises
number of sets
in any combination

44
Q

Exercise is stress, and as the body acclimatizes to stress effectively, precision regularly and in several ways imposes a particular form of stress on the body.

A

Specificity

45
Q

affirms that the body will improve its performance of a specific exercise over time.

A

Specific Adaptations of Imposed Demands (SAID)

46
Q

Exposing the body to an entirely new stimulus provides regular performance improvements. It decreases the likelihood of over-use injuries, over-training, lessening fatigue, and sustaining exercise strength. Altering the load, length, duration, variety of exercise and rest periods can also boost efficiency.

A

Variation

47
Q

The gains of training are lost without training, with long periods. At the other side, this also means that if the preparation is resumed, the detraining effect can be reversed.

increased heart rate, blood pressure, intake of oxygen

50
Q

help reduce muscle soreness and lessen your risk of injury.
