Types Of Contractions and training Flashcards
Concentric
Muscle shortens by overcoming resistance. Positive
Eccentric
Same muscle now lengthens from it concentric position. While still under tension. Negative
Isometric contraction
Muscle contracts creating tension yet does not result in any movement. Eg. Plank
Isokinetic contraction
Concentric concentric movement eg. Rehabilitation
Eccentric training
Negatives. Only muscle lengthening phase. Greater than 1RM
Strength curve accending
Heavy at top eg. Squat, bench, deadlift, shoulder press.
Strength curve decending
Most difficult at beginning eg. Upright row, leg curl, lat raise.
Strength curve bell shape
Strong in the middle eg. Bicep curl
5 components of fitness
Muscular strength Muscular endurance Flexibility Cardio Body composition
Karvonen formula
Target heart rate formula
220- age
Changed to crazy new formula
Interval training
High intensity shot period
1:3 work rest ratio to 1:6
3-4 sets per exercise
Anaerobic glycolytic system 30 secs to 2 minutes
Fartlek training
Aka speed play
Interval and regular distance training.
Sprint interval training
“Walk back sprinting”
Sprint then walk back
Anaerobic
High intensity interval training
Hiit aka hiie high intensity intermittent exercise sit sprint intervals training
Tabata
Anaerobic exercise with recovery periods
Cardiovascular exercise
Isotonic
Concentric and eccentric movement eg. Bicep curls
Bicep
Tricep
Back
Chest
Abs
Lower back
Shoulders
Chest back
Quads
Hamstring
Tibuialis anterior
Calf
Plyometrics
Sudden eccentric followed by
Amortization
Followed by
forceful concentric contraction of same muscles
Periodization
Changing intensity of work load to create results. Purpose is to reach maximum or peak performance at specific time
Pyramids
Primarily used for gaining strength aka light to heavy. Accending
Sometimes done heavy to light but make sure to warm up proper. Decending
Can be done light to heavy then back down heavy to light double progressive
