power
muscle endurance (absolute and relative)
body composition goals
3
Q
considerations of resistance training
A
goals program design relative to training goals order of exercises movement speed weight/rep relationship volume (# of exercises) sets and recovery time between sets
4
Q
participants must clearly establish their training goals, such as
A
strength, muscle endurance, power, body composition changes (lean mass/fat mass) or general fitness (feel better, look better, increase functional capacity)
5
Q
what are repetition recommendations based upon
A
general guidelines and should be prescribed in conjunction with training goals, training loads, or resistance settings
6
Q
repetitions for bodybuilding
A
8-12 RM
7
Q
repetitions for strenght
A
2-8 RM
8
Q
repetitions for localized muscle endurance
A
15-20+ RM
9
Q
repetitions for general fitness
A
10-15 RM
10
Q
RM
A
repetition maximum
working to muscle failure or near muscle failure within the reps indicated. This should be the goal once the lifter is past the early phases of acute or delayed muscle soreness
11
Q
Dr. Clemmon’s opinion on localized muscle endurance
A
training for localized muscle endurance may not be accurate because the typical prescription fo 15-30 reps is insufficient for having a significant effect on the oxygen pathway of the involved muscle
12
Q
Set recommendations (per body part) for begining
A
1-3
13
Q
set recommendations (per body part) for localized muscle endurance
A
2-3+
14
Q
set recommendations (per body part) for body building and strength building
A
3-6+
15
Q
How many reps should you use in routines in which only one set per body part is used in the absence of a warm up
A
approximately 15+ repetitions
16
Q
Why would you use only 15 repetitions in routines where only 1 set per body part is used without a warm up
A
since the first 7-8 repeittions should be somewhat easy, they may serve as a type of within set warm-up that may assist in preparing the muscle for th emore challenging repetitions within the last half of the set
17
Q
rest time between sets for absolute and relative strength or power training
A
2-5 minute
18
Q
rest between sets for body building, localized muscle endurance, and just Basic Muscular fitness
A
30-60 seconds
19
Q
weight/rep relationship considerations for strength building
A
loads that are less than or equal to 65% of a 1RM aren’t generally considered very effective if strength development is the primary goal
20
Q
what RM will 75% of a 1RM result in
A
approximately 10 RM
21
Q
with consideration to weight/rep relationships what should one do durign the first several weeks of training
A
work to muscular fatigue
22
Q
with consideration given to weight/rep relationship what should one do after several months
A
working to concentric failure on all work sets (not warm up sets) will likely bring about better results
23
Q
The inclusion of what may be added after a sufficient strenght foundation has been developed
A
one or several properly executed forced repetitions
24
Q
Alternative to determining training reps other than using percentages of a 1RM
A
once familiar with a particular exercise, during the first few weeks of training, experiment with increasing weight to determine the weight that will enable the lifter to accomplish the desired number of repetitions relative to ultimate training goals
25
progressive overload
whenever target reps are exceeded by 2 reps int eh last set of two consecutive workouts increase weight for that exercise by 2.5-5 pounds. continue to train at the newer, higher load until once again, target reps are exceeded by 2 during two consecutive workouts.
Repeat the cycle

33
Intermediate/Advanced Routines
split routines
34
split routines
upper/lower body split
pushing/pulling split
custom splits
35
upper/lower body split option one
5days/week
odd weeks: upper on MWF, lower on TR
even weeks: upper on TR, lower on MWF
36
upper body/lower body split option two
same routine structure as option one but six training days per week instead of five
37
pushing/pulling split routine designed with consideration given to
the physiological concept known as "reciprocal inhibition"
38

agonist and antagonist muscles can be trained on consecutive days without fear of overtraining
39
pushing/pulling split routine option 1
4 training days/week M.T.R.F
M.R.: pushing movements
T.F.: pulling movements
40
examples of pushing movements
chest: upper, middle, and lower
shoulders: anterior, medial, and posterior

neck
41
examples of pulling movements
legs: glutes, hip flexors, quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, tibialis anterior
back: lats, erector spinae, and trapezius
biceps: curls, concentration curls, hammer curls
abdomen
foreams
42

43
option 2 pushing/pulling split
5days/week
week1: 3days/wk pushing, 2 days/wk pulling
week 2: switch 3 days pulling, 2 days pushing
week 3: repeat cycle
44
pushing/pulling split option 3
six days/ week
MWF, TRSAT, sunday off
repeat cycle
45
more advanced routines
fewer body parts per workout (perhaps to the extreme of only 1)
very high intensity training programs that involve 10-20 sets per muscle group may require extended recovery periods
Up to possibly 72 hours a week of recovery between muscles or musclde groups may be necessary for high intensity, more advanced programs
46
How does circuit training changeVO2max
circuit training results in an average improvement of anywhere from 0-6% in VO2max which is conditional depending on program design
47
circuit training is not generally recommended as
an activity for improving cardiovascular endurance
48
circuit training design
```
use exercises that involve a large amount of muscle mass (exercse involving multi-joint movements) such as:
squats
deadlifts
lunges
bench pressing
lat pull downs (pull ups) bent over flys
dips
power cleans
medicine ball exercises
```
49
circuit training with consideration given to localized muscle endurance work to elevate the heart rate to a minimum of
60%+ of predicted maximum heart rate: 205.8 + (.685 x age) or a minimum of 50%+ of HRR using sets that last longer than one minute (longer is better)
50
how do you conduct workout segments (exercise groupings) for circuit training with consideration given to localized muscle endurance
in such a way that you can remain continuous on a group of muscles for durations exceeding one minute
51
in circuit training with consideration given to localized muscle endurance what should you incorporate
purposefully designed recovery periods that will enable repeated work segments at the desired intensity and duration and possibly reflect teh conditions the athlete may be expected to perform
52
lower extremity aerobic segment examples for circuit training with consideration given to localized muscle endurance
jumping rope
| running in place
53
upper extremity aerobic segments with consideration given to localized muscle endurance

54
Pyramid training
weights up reps down
in the first half of the pyramid the group of sets' poundage goes up and reps go down up to peak weight
in the last half, weight is removed and reps go back up
55
Reverse Pyramid Training (oxford technique)
Weight down reps up
Start heavy, go light
weight high/reps low to weight low/reps higher
56
Delorem Method
Determine the most amount of weight that you can lift fo ra 10 RM on each exercise
set1: 50% of the 10RM (Warm up)
set2: 75% of hte 10 RM (Moderate work set)
set 3: 100% of the 10RM (hard work set)
57
% 1 RM Method (Ascending portion of a pyramid)
Determine or estimate your 1RM for each exercise to be included in your routine and then design each set relative to the 1 RM
Set 1 50% of 1 RM (warm up)
set2: 75% fo 1RM (work set approximately 10RM)
set3: 80-90% of 1 RM (heavy work set at less than or equal to 6 RM for strength goals
58
Since athletes cannot work at high intensities indefinitely, what should be incorporated?
short term and long term recoveries must be periodically considered and incorporated
59
Periodization cycles are repeated with concern given to the following periods
preparation phase
basic strength development moving towards higher intensity strenght (heavier loading) and power development (faster speeds)
incorporating a peaking or maintenance period

a climax
66
maintenance is for sports with a
long season such as football
67
What does the intensity ratio stand for
number of heavy training weeks to light training weeks
68
basic exercises
standard exercises that target major muscle groups. whenever possible the choice of exercises should be selected that offer the greatest possible specificity
69
pre-exhaustion super sets
back to back sets, no rest, on the same muscle group using different exercises. the first set is often referred to as a "pre-exhaustion set" immediately followed by another set that utilizes an additional set of muscles to further work the targeted muscle to a higher level of fatigue
70
examples of pre-exhaustion super sets
decline flys --> decline bench press
leg extensions --> squats or lunges
lateral raises --> military press
71
Not rest giant set
same muscle, different angle
72
example of a no rest giant set
decline bench press followed by flat bench followed by inclince bench press with no rest
73
Breakdown or Burnout set
very high intensity and should not be done by beginners
74
example of breakdown or burnout set for dumbbell arm curl
lifter begins with 30lb dumbbell
executes 10 reps to failure
at failure, the lifter, replaces 30 for 20lb dumbbell and again works to failure
at failure, the lifter replaces 20 pound dumbbell and picks up a 10 pound dumbbell an dagain works to failure
the burnout set is over when the bicep is exhausted and additional work is not possible
75
what are the risk associated with breakdown or burnout set
tendonitis
76
Total Exhaustion Training
Lift to concentric (positive) failure
upon concentric failure, continue the isometric contraction until the muscle begins to lengthen (beginning of eccentric contraction)
once the eccentric contraction begins, work to eccentric failure
77
what is the risk associated with total exhaustion training
tendonitis
78
Super-slow training
conducting extremely slow repetitions (approximately 14-15 seconds)
not considered very effective fo sports specific training because most movements in sport are explosive
79
what type of training is probably most effective as a rehabilitative tool
super-slow training
80
isometric trainin
involves training at specific joint angles
81
gymnastics isometric training
planche or iron cross
82
arm wrestling isometric training
training at different points of internal rotation of the shoulder
83
bench press isometric training

85
Resistance training benefits
```
greater strength and power

HDL purportedly increases in the absence of steroid use
possible lowering of triglycerides
improved tolerance to glucose
possible resting blood pressure benefits
```
86
increase in lean mass
heavy resistance training for 18-25 year olds may yield gains of 20% of body weight in the first year with most being lean with it leveling off after the first two years. women may gain up to 9-13 pounds of lean mass in the first year with correct program design adn sufficint intensity (weight/set/rep relationship)
87
possible resting blood pressure benefits due to resistance training
medication wash out period of 6 weeks
