Topic 3 Flashcards
Dose-response
The lower the baseline, the greater the magnitude of change
Specificity
Training and testing should occur in a similar manner to elicit the greatest physiological change
Overload
In order to elicit change, you need to tax the body beyond the usual stress level
Progression
The process of adjusting exercise parameters
What are the components of exercise prescription?
F - frequency (how often)
I - intensity (how hard)
T - time (how long)
T - type/mode (what kind)
The greatest decline in heart rate was shown to occur with which training/intensity/testing combination?
Arm/high/arm
Formula for target exercise heart rate
resting heart rate + (( %training intensity) * (max heart rate - resting heart rate))
