Maintain and improve health part 2 Flashcards
What are the 6 types of exercise?
1) Strength
2) Power (plyo)
3) Endurance (aerobic)
4) Flexibility
5) Balance
6) Relaxation.
To promote increase in strength, the muscles must __
control or move a heavy load for a set number of reps.
Strength training recommendation
> 2x/week @ 8-12 Reps
Most common response to heavy resistance exercise
Increase in max force-producing capacity of muscle
Muscles must perform work against load that exceeds metabolic capacity in order to improve
Overload Principle
SAID Principle
Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands
Specificity is a necessary foundation to build exercise programs
SAID principle
Improvement lost if exercise is terminated
Reversibility principle
Low intensity exercise
Submaximal loading
When is submit loading indicated?
1) After immobilization/inactivity
2) Early stage of ST healing
3) Young children/ old people
4) Muscular endurance goal
5) known medical condition
High intensity exercise
Max loading
When is max loading indicated
1) Strength, power, gainz goal.
2) advanced stage of rehab
3) Conditioning program
4) Competitive body building
Concentric contraction
A shortening contraction
Isometric Contraction
Neither shorten nor lengthen
Eccentric Contraction
lengthening contraction
NWB position, distal segment moves freely
open chain
