Muscular Endurance

Question 1

Weight Machines (positive)

Answer 1

1. easy to learn
2. safe to use
3. greater muscle stimulus

Question 2

What are the training principles?

Answer 2

Overload, progession, specificity, reversibility, individuality

Question 3

Weight Machines (negatives)

Answer 3

1. no variation in movement
2. not a 1 size fits all
3. machines are stabilized

Question 4

Free weights (Positives)

Answer 4

1. exercises are functional/not restricted in movement
2. excersizes require additional supporting muscles in stabilizing

Question 5

free weights (negatives)

Answer 5

1. some techniques are challenging
2. high potential for injury

Question 6

anaerobic

Answer 6

more intense, but shorter in duration than aerobic exercise

Question 7

aerobic

Answer 7

Physical exercise of low to high intensity that depends primarily

Question 8

Fast Twitch vs Slow twitch

Answer 8

Fast twitch has a greater capacity for anaerobic work like sprinting vs slow twitch which has a greater capacity for aerobic work like long distance running

Question 9

Isometric

Answer 9

muscle contraction when muscle contracting exerts equal fore to resistance
ex) plank/ wall sit

Question 9

Eccentric

Answer 9

when the muscle lengthens and exerts less force than the resistance ; negative phase
ex) flexed into relaxed

Question 9

Concentric

Answer 9

muscle contraction when muscle exerts a force greater than the resistance and shortens; positive phase
ex) resting bicep curl into a flexed bicep curl

Question 9

benefits of resistance training

Answer 9

1. improvement of muscular strength and endurance
2. improvement of bone density
3. improvement of mobility
4. improved posture
5. healthy outlet for stress management

Question 9

body weight (positives)

Answer 9

1. functional and not restricted
2. require additional muscles to support stabilizing

Question 10

body weight negatives

Answer 10

1. less options for increasing/decreasing resistance
2. limited modifications

Question 10

Strength

Answer 10

max amount of force generated by a muscle group during a single repetition

Question 11

Endurance

Answer 11

ability of a muscle to generate force for an extended period of time

Question 12

flexibility

Answer 12

ability of a joint to move through its normal full range of motion

Question 13

atrophy

Answer 13

loss of muscle mass due to lack of use

Question 14

hypertrophy

Answer 14

increase in muscle mass because of exercising

Question 15

cardiac muscles

Answer 15

involuntary; only found in heart

Question 15

Smooth muscles

Answer 15

involuntary
found in walls of throat, stomach and intestines for digestive purposes

Question 16

skeletal muscles

Answer 16

voluntary muscles that provide force needed to move the bones

Question 17

how many muscles in the body?

Answer 17

600

Question 18

muscle contraction NEEDS

Answer 18

ATP energy + electrical stimulus

Question 19

muscle damage and repair

Answer 19

working out = muscles seperating. days inbetween + sleep = muscle repair and muscle growth
