Types Of Training Flashcards
Difine Continuous Training
Involves sustained exercise at a steady intensity for an extended period of time (e.g., running, swimming, cycling).
What does continuous training improve
Improves cardiovascular endurance, stamina, and aerobic fitness.
Definitoion of fartlek training
Improves cardiovascular endurance, stamina, and aerobic fitness.
What does fartlek training improve
Enhances both aerobic and anaerobic fitness.
Interval Training
Alternating periods of high-intensity exercise with low-intensity recovery.
What does interval training improve
Increases speed, endurance, and cardiovascular fitness.
Circuit Training
series of exercise stations performed in a sequence with minimal rest between each.
What does circuit training improve
Improves strength, endurance, and cardiovascular fitness.
Weight Training
Strength training involving the use of weights to improve muscle strength and endurance.
What does weight training improve
Builds muscle mass, increases strength, and enhances bone density.
Plyometric Training
Increases muscle power, coordination, and athletic performance.
What does Plyometric Training improve
Increases muscle power, coordination, and athletic performance.
What is static stretching
Static stretching involves holding a stretch for a prolonged period,
What are the benefits of static stretching?
Static stretching improves flexibility, reduces muscle tension, enhances joint mobility, and helps with muscle relaxation post-exercise, aiding in recovery and reducing the risk of injury.
What is altitude training
Altitude training involves exercising at high altitudes where oxygen levels are lower, which helps the body adapt by producing more red blood cells to improve oxygen efficiency.
What does altitude training improve
Altitude training enhances endurance, increases red blood cell production, and improves aerobic performance by allowing the body to use oxygen more efficiently during exercise.
