Principles of Training

Question 1

What are the Principles of Training

Answer 1

SPORT:
> Specificity
> Progression
> Overload
> Reversibility 
> Tedium

Question 2

Name the 3 energy systems in muscles

Answer 2

> ATP - PCR (0-8s)
Glycolytic (6-90s)
Oxidative (Aerobic)

Question 3

What is the ATP - PCR energy system?

Answer 3

Immediate energy system e.g. jumping

Question 4

What is the Glycolytic energy system?

Answer 4

After a few seconds of exercise, anaerobic glycolytic pathways provide an increasing percentage of the energy to support max activity e.g. 200m sprints

Question 5

What is the Oxidative energy system?

Answer 5

Long term energy system e.g. running beyond 800m

Question 6

Name the 3 Muscle Fibre Types

Answer 6

> Slow Oxidative (Type I)
Fast Oxidative (Type IIa)
Fast Glycolytic (Type IIx/b)

Question 7

Name the 8 muscle pairs

Answer 7

> Pectoral/Latissimus Dorsi
> Anterior Deltoids/Posterior Deltoids
> Abdominals/Spinal Erectors
> Left and Right external Obliques
> Quadriceps/Hamstrings
> Shins/Claves
> Biceps/Triceps
> Forearm Flexors/Extensors

Question 8

What are the muscle spindles and golgi-tendon organs

Answer 8

Proprioceptors

Question 9

What do Muscle Spindles do?

Answer 9

Monitor changes in the length of the muscle

Question 10

What do Golgi-Tendon Organs do?

Answer 10

Is a mechanorecptor that is sensitive to muscular tension applied to its muscle to its tendon, providing information about the strength of muscle contraction

Question 11

What do the energy systems depend on?

Answer 11

SID
> Sessions
> Duration of exercise
> Intensity of exercise
