Q

Improving your ability in a sport is very specific. If you want to be a great pitcher, running laps will help your overall conditioning but won’t develop your skills at throwing or the power and muscular endurance required to throw a fastball fifty times in a game. Swimming will help
improve your aerobic endurance but won’t develop tissue resiliency and muscular endurance for your running legs.

Q

To reach the roof of your ability, you must climb the first flight of stairs before you can exit the 20th floor and stare out over the landscape. You can view this from both a technical skills standpoint as well as from an effort/distance standpoint. To swim the 500 freestyle, you need to be able to maintain your body position and breathing pattern well enough to complete the distance. To swim the 500 freestyle, you also need to build your muscular endurance well enough to repeat the necessary motions enough times to finish.

A

Progression

8
Q

To increase strength and endurance, you need to add new resistance or time/intensity to your efforts. This principle works in concert with progression. To run a 10-kilometer race, athletes need to build up distance over repeated sessions in a reasonable manner in order to improve muscle adaptation as well as improve soft tissue strength/resiliency. Any demanding exercise attempted too soon risks injury. The same principle holds true for strength and power exercises.

A

Overload

9
Q

Over time the body becomes accustomed to exercising at a given level. This _____ results in improved efficiency, less effort, and less muscle breakdown at that level. That is why the first time you ran two miles you were sore after, but now it is just a warm-up for your main workout. Therefore, you need to change the stimulus via higher intensity or longer duration in order to continue improvements. The same holds true for adapting to lesser amounts of exercise.

A

adaptation

Q

The body cannot repair itself without rest and time to recover. Both short periods like hours
between multiple sessions in a day and longer periods like days or weeks to recover from a long season are necessary to ensure your body does not suffer from exhaustion or overuse injuries. Motivated athletes often neglect this. At the basic level, the more you train the more sleep your body needs, despite the adaptations you have made to said training.

A

Recovery

11
Q

If you discontinue application of a particular exercise like running five miles or bench pressing 150 pounds 10 times, you will lose the ability to successfully complete that exercise. Your muscles will atrophy and the cellular adaptations like increased capillaries (blood flow to the muscles) and mitochondria density will reverse. You can slow this rate of loss substantially by conducting a maintenance/reduced program of training during periods where life gets in the
way and is why just about all sports coaches ask their athletes to stay active in the offseason.

Q

Elevates the heart rate and achieves aerobic fitness activities, which maybe included
in this phase are walking, jogging, running, swimming, bicycling and aerobic dancing.
These phases should follow the principles of training with regards to frequency,
intensity, and time. Reaching the target heart rate and maintaining the intensity of workout in the specific time are important guidelines for this phase.

A

Exercise Proper/Workout

24
Q

______ should be accomplished by walking for a few minutes and followed by a
stretching exercise to undo the tightening of muscle groups that occurs from strenuous
activity.

A

Cool Down

25
Q

Exercise sessions always should be preceded by a _______ and followed by a ________.

A

5-minute warm-up , 5-minute cool-down

26
Q

The ________ should consist of
general calisthenics, stretching
exercises, or exercising at a
lower intensity level than the
target zone.

A

warm-up

27
Q

______ prepares the body for exercise, enhances exercise performance, and
decreases the chances of injury.

A

Warm-up

28
Q

______ helps the body’s physiology gradually
progress from rest to exercise.

A

Warm-up

29
Q

_________ needs to be redirected to active muscles and this takes time.

A

Circulation of blood

30
Q

The ______ most specially needs time to adapt to the increased demands of exercise.

A

heart

31
Q

_______ also helps spread synovial fluid through the joints to help protect the articular spaces and, therefore, prevent injury.

A

Warm-up

32
Q

The ________ entails decreasing the
intensity of the exercise gradually. The body needs to slow down gradually to its resting level following the challenge of exercise. Stopping abruptly causes blood to pool in the exercised body parts, diminishing the return of blood to the heart. Less blood return can cause dizziness and fainting or even caused cardiac abnormalities.

A

cool-down
