Resistance Training

Question 1

adaptive response dependent on

Answer 1

• intensity and duration
• mode
• frequency
• genetic limitations
• prior activity

Question 2

why is mode more important in resistance training

Answer 2

because what you train is what gets stronger!
exercise specificity

Question 3

resistance training ________ strength and high-intensity exercise capacity

Answer 3

increases

Question 4

resistance training __________- muscle CSA

Answer 4

increases

Question 5

strength training causes ________ of muscle fibers

Answer 5

hypertrophy

Question 6

resistance training increases __________- and _________ content

Answer 6

phosphocreatine and glycogen

Question 7

resistance training causes ___________- glycolytic capacity and decreased __________- activity

Answer 7

increased
mitochondrial (# and size)

Question 8

why does resistance training decrease capillary density

Answer 8

because the CSA is increased

Question 9

what are early strength gains due to

Answer 9

neural facilitation because adaptations such as increased muscle size have not occurred yet
*remember the gamma motor neurons with antagonist inhibition, stretch reflex, and synergistic activity

Question 10

______ have a low innervation ration while ______ have a high innervation ratio

Answer 10

1
2X

Question 11

which muscle fibers are recruited first

Answer 11

1

Question 12

which muscle fibers are the fastest

Answer 12

2X

Question 13

which muscle fibers are easily fatigable? fatigue resistant?

Answer 13

2X
1

Question 14

training for 3-5 months can cause a 9-23% increase in _______

Answer 14

muscle CSA

Question 15

T or F: all muscle fibers increase in size with hypertrophy but you see a larger increase in type 2 muscles

Answer 15

T

Question 16

T or F: with hypertrophy you see an increase in numbers and sizes of myofibrils

Answer 16

T

Question 17

sprint training leads to _______

Answer 17

hypertrophy

Question 18

hyperplasia

Answer 18

creation of new muscle fibers. they may split but you don’t create new
size of fibers increase not the amount

Question 19

resistance training ______ ATP, PCr, and glycogen

Answer 19

increased

Question 20

with resistance training you see ________ glycolytic capacity and _____ mitochondrial activity

Answer 20

increased (magnitude of change not as great as with endurance training)
decreased

Question 21

with resistance training you have _____ capillary density

Answer 21

decreased

Question 22

T or F: you can increase your force production using your imagination

Answer 22

T
