Muscular Conditoning

Question 1

What is muscular conditioning? .2

Answer 1

Involves training and fatiguing a specific muscle or group of muscles in a short period of time (less than 2-3 minutes)

To improve muscular strength and endurance of the specific muscle trained.

Question 2

How does time (in F.I.T.T) function for muscle endurance?

Answer 2

RM = Repetitions maximum
If you are doing 10 RM in your workout, it means that you need to select a weight that you can lift a maximum of 10 Reps.

Question 3

How does time (in F.I.T.T) function for muscle strength?

Answer 3

Straight sets = resting between sets

Supersets/circuits - no rest between sets:
-alternate between body parts (upper/lower/front/back)

Question 4

How do you use Repetitions Maximum? /3

Answer 4

Allows the lifter to perform X but not X+1 repetitions (I.e 10, not 11)

If proper technique cannot be maintained, the set is over, repetitions maximum or muscular fatigue has been achieved.

If able to surpass RM, increase the amount of weight
