NASM CPT CH. 14 Flashcards
What does OPT stand for
Optimum Performance Training
Acute Variables
important components that specify how each exercise is to be performed
A purposeful system or plan put together to help client achieve goals
program design
1 complete movement of a single exercise
rep
group of consecutive reps
set
level of effort (compared to max effort)
intensity
speed which you perform reps
tempo
amount of training within a certain period
volume
recuperation time between sets
rest interval
of sessions in a week
frequency
length of time in one phase of training
duration
choosing right exercises for a client’s program
exercise selection
Time to recover 50% ATP-PC
20-30 seconds
Time to recover 75% ATP-PC
40 seconds
Time to recover 85-90% ATP-PC
60 seconds
Time to recover 100% ATP-PC
3 minutes
Systematic approach to program design that uses the general adaptation syndrome; principle of specificity to vary the amount; type of stress placed on the body to produce adaptation and prevent injury. Also varies focus of training at regular planned periods (months/wks) to produce optimal adaptation
Periodization
What are 2 objectives of periodization?
1) dividing program into distinct phases
2) training diff forms of strength in each period to control volume of training and prevent injury
What phases will you find superset techniques?
Phase 2 and 5 (Strength Endurance & Power)
Phase 2 - Strength Endurance Superset example
more stable exercise followed by stabilization with similar motions. Ex: Bench Press SS with Stability Ball Push-Ups
Phase 5 - Power Superset example
Strength exercise plus power
Ex: BB Bench SS with Med Ball Chest Pass
Exercise Selection: This phase uses 2-4 strength exercises per body part?
Hypertrophy
Exercise Selection: If using 1-3 exercises, what phase would this fall under?
Max Strength
What is the goal of Max Strength?
Focuses on increasing the load placed on the tissues of the body
