NASM Chapter 1 brainscape Flashcards
Deconditioned
A state of lost physical fitness which may include muscle imbalances, decreased flexibility and/or a lack of core and joint stability
Proprioception
The cumulative neural input to the central nervous system from mechanoreceptors that sense position and limb movement
Proprioceptively enriched environment
An unstable but controlled environment where exercises are performed that causes the body to use its internal balance and stabilization mechanisms
Stabilization
Ability of the body’s stabilizing muscles to provide support for joints as well as maintain posture and balance during movement
Phase of training
Smaller divisions of training progressions that fall within the three building blocks of training
Neuromuscular efficiency
The ability of the neuromuscular system to enable all muscles to efficiently work together in all planes of motion;
Coordination
Prime mover
The muscle that acts as the main source of motive movement
Rate of force production
How quickly a muscle can generate force
Superset
Set of two exercises that are performed back-to-back without any rest time between them
Phase 3: Hypertrophy
designed for people who desire lean muscle mass
Phase 4: Maximal Strength
works toward the goal of increasing maximal prime mover strength
Phase 5:Power
designed to target specific forms of training that are necessary to improve how quickly a muscle can generate force
Phase 1 Goals
Improve muscular endurance, enhance joint stability, increase flexibility, enhance control of posture, improve neuromuscular efficiency (balance, stabilization)
Phase 1 Training Strategies
Corrective flexibility, training in unstable, yet controllable environments (proprioceptively enriched), low loads, high repetitions

PHASE 5
Muscular Endurance
A muscle’s ability to contract for an extended period
