16
Q

What is the principle of specificity?

A

Adaptations are specific to the type of stimulus provided.

17
Q

What is the training goal for strength?

A
  • High load
  • Low reps to recruit more motor units and type II fibers.
18
Q

What is the training goal for hypertrophy?

A

Moderate load and reps to increase muscle size through structural and metabolic adaptations.

19
Q

What is the training goal for muscular endurance?

A

High repetitions at lower loads to improve metabolic efficiency.

20
Q

What is Progressive Overload?

A

Increasing volume, intensity, or frequency over time to achieve targeted adaptations.

21
Q

How can volume be increased in progressive overload?

A

By increasing reps, sets, or number of exercises.

22
Q

What is absolute intensity?

A

The actual weight lifted or resistance used in training.

23
Q

What is relative intensity?

A

The proximity to failure during an exercise.

24
Q

How can frequency be increased in training?

A

By increasing the number of training sessions per week or month.

25
Q

What should progressions in training be based on?

A

The specific adaptations desired and minimizing injury risk.

26
Q

What are key factors in exercise selection?

A

Specificity to goals, safety, and individual needs.

27
Q

What is the importance of power in training?

A

Improving the rate of force development through high-intensity, low-volume training.

28
Q

What should be considered when programming exercise frequency?

A

Interactions between volume, intensity, and rest.

29
Q

What is the tradeoff between volume and intensity?

A

Higher volumes generally require lower intensities and vice versa.

30
Q

What is the role of rest between sets?

A

Allowing partial recovery to maintain performance and reduce injury risk.

31
Q

What questions should be asked in needs analysis?

A

Goals, current fitness level, and any limitations or injuries.

32
Q

What is activity analysis?

A

Breaking down an activity to understand its demands and necessary adaptations.

33
Q

How should progressions be made in supervised treatment sessions?

A

By gradually increasing load or complexity based on patient’s performance.

34
Q

What is the importance of a warm-up?

A

Preparing the body for exercise by increasing blood flow and reducing injury risk.

35
Q

What is the significance of technique in exercise?

A

Ensuring safety and effectiveness of the exercise.

36
Q

How can exercise prescription be tailored?

A

By considering the patient’s preferences, goals, and response to training.

37
Q

Explain the Acute:Chronic Workload Ratio
