Resistance training Flashcards
1
Q
Resistance training definition
A
Working against a load for a short time -> overload = adaptions
Is important for every day strength, muscle, rehab, aging, power, volume
2
Q
Adaptations
A
(sliding filament theory) Fibres increase is size and transition towards IIa
Neural - ^ signals & faster signals, ^ recruitment and synchronisation of fibres
3
Q
Velocity force curve
A
^ velocity = decrease force during concentric
^ velocity = ^ force during eccentric
Maximum potential tension in the middle
