25
A foundational element that guides resistance exercise in improving muscle performance. States that if muscle performance is to improve, a resistance load that exceeds the metabolic capacity of the muscle must be applied.
Overload Principle
26
It refers to how much external resistance is imposed on the muscle
Intensity of resistance exercise
27
It includes variables such as repetitions sets, or frequency, any combination of which can be adjusted to progressively increase the demands on the muscle.
Volume of exercise
28
This principle refers to the concept that to improve a specific muscle performance element, the resistance program should be matched to the element constructs.
SAID principle/ Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands
29
Referred to as specific exercise, is a widely accepted concept suggesting that the adaptive effects of training, such as improvement of strength, power, and endurance, are highly specific to the training method employed.
Specificity of Training
29
Referred to as specific exercise, is a widely accepted concept suggesting that the adaptive effects of training, such as improvement of strength, power, and endurance, are highly specific to the training method employed.
Specificity of Training
30
In contrast to the SAID principle, carryover of training effects from one variation of exercise or task to another also has been reported on a very limited basis concerning velocity training.
Transfer of Training
31
Adaptive changes in the body's system in response to a resistance program are transient unless training-induced improvements are regularly used for functional activities or unless an individual participates in a maintenance program of resistance exercise.
Reversibility Principle
32
It is reflected by reductions in muscle performance, begins a week or two after the cessation of resistance exercises and continues until training effects are lost
Detraining
33
Muscle needs adequate sources of energy to contract, generate tension, and resist fatigue.
Energy stores and Blood supply
34
A complex phenomenon affecting muscle performance must be considered in a resistance exercise program.
Fatigue
35
The diminished response of muscles to a repeated stimulus is reflected in a progressive decrement in the amplitude of motor unit potentials. An acute physiological response to exercise that is normal and reversible.
Muscle (local) Fatigue
36
Type of fibers that generate a great amount of tension within a short period of time.
Type II fibers
37
Type of fiber that is geared toward anaerobic metabolic activity and has a tendency to fatigue more quickly than type IIA fibers
Type II B fibers
38
Type of muscle fiber that generates a low level of muscle tension but can sustain the contraction for a long time.
Type I fibers
39
Type of fibers that are geared toward aerobic metabolism.
Type II A fibers
40
This type of fatigue is the systemic diminished response of an individual to a stimulus resulting from prolonged physical activity such as walking, jogging, cycling, or repetitive work.
Cardiopulmonary fatigue
41
Cardiopulmonary Fatigue factors
Decreased blood sugar levels Decreased glycogen stores in muscle and liver Depletion of potassium, especially in the elderly patient
42
Type of fatigue that the level of exercise that cannot be sustained indefinitely
Threshold for fatigue
43
A patient's health status, diet, or lifestyle all influence ______.
Fatigue threshold
44
Adequate time for recovery from fatiguing exercise must be built into every resistance exercise program
Recovery from exercise
45
Give me two signs and symptoms of muscle fatigue
1. Shaking or trembling of the contracting muscle. 2. Active movements are jerky or inconsistent
46
Factors that influence fatigue
A patient's health status, diet, or lifestyle
47
Adequate time for recovery from fatiguing exercise must be built into every resistance exercise program
Recovery from Exercise
48
Muscle performance capability will change across the life span
Age
49
At birth, muscle accounts for about 25% of body weight. A total number of muscle fibers is established before birth or early in infancy.
Infancy, Early Childhood, and Preadolescence
50
Rapid acceleration in muscle fiber size and muscle mass, especially in boys.
Adolescence
51
Muscle mass peaks in women between 16 and 20 years of age; muscle mass in men peaks between 18 and 25 years of age
Young and Middle Adulthood
52
Muscle strength declines at a rate of 15% to 20% per decade during the sixth and seventh decades and declines at a rate of 30% per decade after that.
Late Adulthood
53
A patient must be able to focus on a given task to learn how to perform it correctly.
Attention
54
If a resistance exercise program is to be effective, a patient must be willing to put forth and maintain sufficient effort and adhere to the program over time.
Motivation and Feedback
55
It is well accepted that the initial, rapid gain in the tension-generating capacity of skeletal muscle from a resistance training program is mainly attributed to neural responses, not adaptive changes in the muscle itself.
Neural Adaptations
56
It is an increase in the size and individual muscle fiber caused by increased myofibrillar volume.
Hyperthropy
57
An increased number of muscle fibers
Hyperplasia
58
Basic elements of manual muscle testing and dynamometry
Alignment and Stabilization
59
These are compensatory movement patterns caused by the muscle action of a more potent adjacent agonist or a muscle group that normally serves as a stabilizer
Substitute Motions
60
Proper alignment is determined by considering the fiber orientation, the line of pull, and the specific action desired of the muscle to be strengthened
Alignment and muscle action
61
The alignment or position of the patient or limb with respect to gravity will be important during some forms of resistance exercise, particularly if body weight or free weights.
Alignment and gravity
62
It refers to holding down a body segment or holding the body steady of proximal or distal joints to prevent substitute motions.
Stabilization
63
Type of stabilization that can be applied manually by the therapist or the patient with equipment
External Stabilization
64
Type of stabilization that can be achieved by an isometric contraction of an adjacent muscle group that does not impact the desired movement pattern but holds the proximal body segment of the muscle being strengthened firmly in place.
Internal Stabilization
65
It is the amount of external resistance imposed on the contracting muscle during each repetition of an exercise. The exercise load or level of resistance.
Intensity of Exercise
66
It is defined as the greatest amount of weight or load that can be moved with control through the full, available range of motion a specific number of times before fatiguing
Repetition Maximum
67
The total number of repetitions and sets in exercise session
Volume
68
The sequence in which muscle groups are exercised during a session
Exercise Order
69
The number of exercise sessions per day or week
Frequency
70
The time allowed for recuperation between exercise sets and sessions.
Rest interval
71
The total time committed to a resistance training program.
Duration
72
The type of muscle contraction, type of resistance, arc of movement used, and primary energy system utilized during exercise
Mode
73
The rate at which each exercise is performed
Velocity
74
The variation of intensity and volume during specific periods of resistance training
Periodization
75
Exercises that approximate or replicate functional elements.
Integration of exercises into functional activities
76
It refers to the number of times a particular movement is performed consecutively
Repetitions
77
A predetermined number of consecutive repetitions grouped together is known.
Sets
78
It refers to isometric contractions done internally- often called muscle setting or against an unmovable external resistance.
Static contractions
79
It can be performed using concentric or eccentric contractions or both
Dynamic resistance exercises
