35
Q

Resistance training: alternate splits

A

some split workouts into push and pull days or legs and arms vs shoulder and back. Only recommended by those trying to increase muscle mass- higher volume results in more muscle damage and soreness that might impair other aspects of training

36
Q

Resistance training: workload

A

workload has 3 main components: %1RM, # reps, length of time to complete exercises in set or total training session. Can alter workload by alt variables.

37
Q

Resistance training % predicted 1 RM

A

60-80% 1Rm appropriate for most. advanced lifters >=80% for hypertrophy. Selected resistance should allow for 8-12 reps/set.
Lower resistance can also achieve muscular conditioning when lifted to fatigue.
Endurance focused- decrease resistance (<50% 1RM)- 15-25 reps/set w/ 1-2 sets

38
Q

Resistance training: optimal sets

A

Most achieve gains w/ 2-4 sets of optimal resistance per muscle group- even one set for beginners can help. target # sets can be achieved w/ one or combo of exercises.

39
Q

Resistance training: rest intervals

A

for health and fitness program, rest of 2-3 min b/w sets is most effective for muscle strength increase- shorter rest for hypertrophy(30-90s) and endurance (15-60s). 48-72h b/w workouts needed to promote cellular/molecular adaptations.

40
Q

Resistance training: Simple (straight) sets

A

1-4 sets for each exercise w/ 8-15 reps in each set. Each exercise is completed before moving to next. Effective in building lean body tissue, appropriate for all levels

41
Q

Resistance training: Super sets

A

Advanced training method. 2-3 consequtive exercises w/ rest taken after all prescribed exercises of suoerset are complete. Can include exercises of same muscle group (compound set) or for different parts of body. Makes workout shorter, intense and interesting. Variations: trisets, opposing muscle, cardio-strength

42
Q

Resistance training: pyramids

A

either increase or decrease weight w/ each set (heavy to light considered safer).
Drop set- perform same exercise in superset of same exercise w/ decreasing weight- allows overload same muscle group safely

43
Q

Resistance training circuits

A

way to increase overall intensity of workout- series of exercises one after another- rest at end of circuit. Shorter total workout. Exercises arranged by opposing muscle group to allow recovery b/w exercises while keeping up intensity.

44
Q

Resistance training: timing and tempo

A

should be instructed on proper technique, form and breathing. 2 sec eccentric, 1 sec concentric. Session should not be more than 45-60 mins- may be shorter if high intensity (20-30mins)

45
Q

Compound exercises (multi joint)

A

Invloves more than 1 major muscle group. Larger muscles do most, smaller ones recruited secondarily. All require coordinated action of multiple muscle groups. eg: dealift

46
Q

Isolated exercises

A

single joint exercises- only 1 major group trained on its own. Typically movment is done in way that other muscle groups are involved. Exercises involving raising, curling, extending.

47
Q

Core training

A

exercises that focus on hips, low back and abdomen help imporve overall stability of trunk and extremities. helps support daily living and decrease risk of back injury

48
Q

plyometric training

A

involves jumping, bouncing, and other high impact exercises focused on maximizing stretch reflex of muscles. not standard. riskier due to muscle damage typical with high force lengthening contractions. can add variety, intensity and enhance joint stability and mobility. better suited to more experienced.

49
Q

balance and metastability

A

metastability- relative instability (stable instability)
both important for msk health and activities of daily living and PA. Everyone can benefit from balance and stability training- can by via resistance training or adapting exercise onto unstable surface.

50
Q

female ACL

A

females are at greater risk of acl injury due to larger knee valgus and modified landing. balance training is important to control knee joint

51
Q

balance training

A

sessions range from 4-15min->adolescents; 11-15 mins->young adults; 31-45 mins->older adults. greatest change w/ frequency of 2X/week w/ total of 24-36 sessions (12-18weeks)

52
Q

Training the core

A

training for sports should include dynamic and isometric core
isometric prescription: safe place to start to increase core stiffness. focus on 3-5 reps 3-10 sec hold and 3-5s b/w reps
stable core important for transmission of force.
once comfortable w/ isometric- progress to include dynamic core exercise or add instability.

53
Q

resistance based balance training

A

use unstable devices while perofrming exercises- unstalbe envrioment provides more varied and effective training stimulus.
-Closed chain free weigth exercises (distal body statonary, proximal moves)- moderate instability allows simultaenous development of upper and lower extremities
unilateral resistance provides instability.
-machine reistance exercies minimize balance challenge.

54
Q

Non-resistance balance training

A

start with sample training exerciese- as progress movment can be introduced and use of instability tools can be incorporated.

55
Q

training specificty

A

use training methods that support actions in daily living- base training on clients goals and needs.

56
Q

static stretching

A

slowly stretching muscle/tendon group and holding (10-30s). Can be active or passive. repeat stretch 2-4 times–> 60 sec/ muscle total. (result in greater gains in ROM-along w/ PNF)

57
Q

Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitator (PNF)

A

contract-relax method: isometric 5-6sec followed by slow static stretch of some muscle group. Produce slightly larger gains but not significantly more than static. can be done with partner or resistance bands.

58
Q

Dynamic stretching

A

Controlled movment throguh ROM of active joints. Ballistic (bouncing) warmup can be used for those engaging in bouncing activities. relates more to sport activities

59
Q

Slow movment stretching

A

Gradual transition from one postion to other and progressively increasing reach and ROM with repetitions.

60
Q

Foam Rolling

A

acutre increase in ROM can be achieved. Back and forth over roller. Can have increased ROM with 5-10s and greater changes with 30-60s w/ increase up to 20 mins. Greater impact when comblined with static stretching
No performance impairment if done without full warmup.
Can help delay onset of pain or chronic and acute pain.
Rolling at 10 min intervals post warmup can maintain increased flexibilty from warmup.

61
Q

Training for performance: specificity

A

training transfers more effectlivly to task if similar in movment pattern, force, velocity an type of movment. Metabolic adaptations are specific to energy systems used in the exercise or activity.

62
Q

Training for performance: Progressive overload

A

body develops to what is demanded of it- adaptation

63
Q

Training for performance: 3 phases of adapatations

A

alarm, resistance and overtraining.
goal of exercise- activate casacde of physiological events. Alter any parameter of taining volume to induce overlaod–> continually and gradually–> don’t increase by more than 10%/week

64
Q

Variety and periodization

A

varying training helps adapt and avoid plateays developing multiple aspects of fitness. Change up every 2-4 weeks. Periodization- see greater transer to performance of training progresses in specificity and doffculty over time. helps maximize benefits and limit injury risk- often structured around phases or seasons.

65
Q

Rest and recovery

A

adaptations occur during rest- occur w/in hour sor days after single exercise bout. If new trainign too soon or late- little improvment. 48h rest may be needed for intense exercise. At least 1 rest day/week. Active recovery 1-2w after compettion season.

66
Q

Components of performance related fitness: muscular power

A

ability to produce force in short time. Power output=ability to genrate strength at speed (forcexvel). explosive muscle power need for large movments higher speed power needed in smaller faster movments.

67
Q

Components of performance related fitness: strength

A

ability to produce max force at given speed- vital for power and endurance. relative strength needed to covercome inertia and needed to move or stop heavy wieght.

68
Q

Components of performance related fitness: agility, quickness and speed

A

relate to ability to stop, start, change drx, and accelerate.

69
Q

Components of performance related fitness: coordination and balance

A

ability of neuromuscular system to acheive defined moor patterns proficiently

70
Q

Components of performance related fitness: flexibility

A

ROM about joint or set of joints. Active and passive ROM. increased ROM helps decrease potential for injury and possibly increase performance.

71
Q

Components of performance related fitness: aerobic power

A

max rate of O2 consumption for sustained work per unit time- increase allows to do more and recover more effectively during rest.

72
Q

Components of performance related fitness: aerobic endurance

A

realtive intensity of exercise that can be maintained over time. more endurance required for >=1hr continus intense PA

73
Q

Components of performance related fitness: aerobic capacity

A

how much O2 can be consumed by group of muscles for period of time combined qualities of aerobic endurance and power. Lactate threshold- point in aerobic range which fatigue accumulates more quickly.

74
Q

dynamic warmup vs ballistic stretching

A

dynamic warmup: progressive calistiatic- whole body and movment specific
ballisitc stretching: high velocity stretch can result in muscle damage and delay onset of muscle soreness, may be relevant to eleite but not for rec athletes or general healthy population.

75
Q

training strategies to increase aerobic capacity

A

high intensity moderate duration HIIT and long and slow distance training

76
Q

Long-slow distance training

A

longer durations at moderate intensity- pick duration similar to task and within current fitness level- increase total duration by ~10%/week

77
Q

Pace/tempo training

A

shorter than LSD (20-30 mins) at higher intensity- slightly faster than race pace. induces fatigue faster, can be done as 1 block or as longer interval sets.

78
Q

aerobic training performance goals- HIIT

A

intermittent exercise alt more and less intense followed by recovery.
linked to improved performance in non eleite athletes.
Highly trained indivudals–> imporved ionic regulation.
-polarized traingng appraoch- 80% total volume- low intnesity and 20% high intensity.
-suggested that athletes spend several mins at >=90% VO2max - can be used to enhance perofamnce in events relying heavily on anaerobic metabolims.

79
Q

Resistance program for beginners

A

develop strength and agonist and antagonist for proper muscular balance.

80
Q

Resistance program for intermediate

A

provide basis for performance by including core and joint stabilizers all muscles for optimal balance and injury prevention.

81
Q

Resistance program for advanced

A

moments that involve primary and core musculature in similar way to sport task. AS develop- incorporate more degrees of freedom, coordination, balance work multiple muscles/groups at same time.

82
Q

Anaerobic training for fitness

A

SIT and HIIT can induce similar magnitude of metabolic and fitness adaptations in less time- very good overall fitness and high motivation needed. 1:3 work recover in introductory phase (15-19 on 6-20 scale). up to 1:10 for SIT.

83
Q

Agility, quickness and speed training

A

training should be sport specific relative to level and progress differ over time SSC and plyometric activities are in most sports- appropriate for motivated athletes for injury prevention and increased performance. should have 6-12 months resistance training and sports experience prior to advanced plyometrics.

84
Q

nutrition for performance

A

1-4g/min carbs recommended 1-4h prior.
high intensity and >90mins simple sugar should be consumed (1g/min)
following 1-1.2g/kg/h recomended to refuel
Protein intake 1.2-1.8g/kg/d
total kcal/day should increase

85
Q

Nutrition for strength and power athletes

A

4-7g/kg/day carbs for proper fueling
1.6g/kg/day up to 2.2g/kg/day and 2.4g/kg/day during caloric restriction. Large protein dose prior to sleep simulates turnover (30-40g)
little evidence to support use of BCAA supplements for pro synthesis

86
Q

Ergogenic and thermogenic aids

A

thermogenic aids claim to facilitate fat loss by naturally stimulating metabolism- actually demonstrate negligible effects.
