Q

Weight belts should only ben worn:

A
  1. When performing exercises that place stress on lower back
  2. During sets that involve near-maximal or maximal loads

Worn too often: reduces opportunity for abdominal musculature to be further trained

Q

Well constructed programs are desgined from 3 principles

A
  1. Specificity
  2. Overload
  3. Progression

Lack of any of these = less desirable results and/or injury

Q

What is the SAID principle;
what is over load?
and what is progression?

A

SAID
(1) Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands
—Train what you wanna grow/
—what you need to performanve

Overload
—Refers to workout/training intensity
—Proper overload training = ↓ risk of overtraining while ensuring adaptations still occur
—Increased loads, # of sessons etc.

Progression
—Intensity of training must become progressively greater for continued adaptations
—Gradually increasing weight, adding more exercises or changing them

Q

How do you determine your one rep max (1RM)

A

only for core exercises
1RM = (1 + 0.0333 x reps) x load

Determine the athlete’s multiple-RM based on the number of repetitions planned for that exercise (the goal repetitions)

80% of 1RM
100= Hypertoaphy

Q

What is Volume? Load Volume?

A

Volume – total repetitions (sets x reps) or total amount of weight lifted (aka, load-volume) in a training session

load-volume: calculated by multiplying the number of sets by the number of repetitions times the weight lifted per repetition (sets x reps x load)

Q

Volume is based on:

LOW REP—HIGH WEIGHT
* 6 or fewer reps
* 2-6 sets

Hypertophy —Moderate
MODERATE WEIGHT AND REPS
* Higher volume
* 6-12 reps
* 3-6 sets
* 3 or more muscle groups

Muscular Endurance—Light
HIGH REPS LOW WEIGHT
* 12 or more reps
* 2-3 sets
* High reps–low load

Rest Periods for:
Strength
Power
Hypertrophy
Muscular endurance

A

Rest period – the time dedicated to recovery between sets and exercises

Strength
* 2-5 mins (Phosppagen system)

Power
* 2-5 mins (Phosppagen system)

Muscular endurance
* less than 30 secs (No breaks for endurance)

23
Q

Why should we warm up before we work out?

A

*Shunts blood to area
* Muscles can fire and relax faster
* Improvement in the rate of force
* reaction time
* Lowered viscous resistance (Stiffness)
* Improved oxygen delivery
* Increased blood flow to active muscles
* Enhanced metabolic reactions

24
Q

A proper warm-up is __ to the sport or activity

A

specific

25
Q

Does static stretching prevent injury or muscle soreness? Is it a warm up?

A

No; Its a cool down and relaxes the muscles

26
Q

Does dynamic streching improve performance?

A

Yes
(Moving while stretching)

27
Q

How do you properly warm up?

A

10 general — 10 specific

General warm up:
—5-10 min (slow continuous activity)

Specific Warm–up
—similar to the sport
—8-12 mins of sport specific dynamic strenches

28
Q

Define Flexibility

A

Flexibility – measure of range of motion (ROM)
– has static and dynamic components

29
Q

What is ROM?

A

degree of movement that occurs at a joint

30
Q

Flexibility can improve performance by—— joint movement and —–risk of injury… if inflexibility is present

A

increasing; decreasing

31
Q

Define Static Flexability

A

Static Flexibility: —range of possible movement about a joint and its surrounding muscle during passive movement
– No Voluntary muscles activity
– External force (gravity, partner, machine etc.) = Stretch force

32
Q

Define Dynamic Flexability

A

Dynamic Flexibility: available ROM during active movements
– Voluntary muscle actions

33
Q

What are factors that affect flexability?

A
  • Joint structure
  • Ageandsex
  • Connectivetissue
  • Weight training with limited range of motion * Muscle bulk
  • Activitylevel
34
Q

What determines range of motion?

A

Joint structure

35
Q

What are 3 types of joint mobility?

A

Ball-and-socket joints (hip/shoulder) = greatest ROM (tri-planar)

Condyloid joint (wrist) significantly less ROM (bi-planar)

Hinge joint (elbow) = even less ROM (uni- planar)

36
Q

How does age and sex affect flexability? What is Fibrosis?

A

Younger = more flexible than older
Fibrosis- connective tissue replaces degenerative muscle fibers

Females = more flexible than males
— because less muscle mass + activities

37
Q

How does Connective Tissue affect flexability?

A

Connective Tissue – may limit ROM Tendons, ligaments, sheaths, and capsules

Elasticity: the ability to return to original resting length after a passive stretch
Plasticity: the tendency to assume a new and greater length after a passive stretch

38
Q

Improvements in ROM as a result of stretching may be due primarily to the connective tissue adaptations (––––).

A

plastic potential

39
Q

How does Weight training with limited range of motion

A
40
Q

How does Muscle bulk limit ROM?

A
41
Q

How does Activity level?

A
42
Q

Each exercise session should be preceded by – to – minutes of general warm-up and – to – minutes of sport-specific dynamic stretching.

A

5 to 10; 8 to 12

43
Q

When should a dynamic stretching be done?

A

before full work out

44
Q

When should static streching be done?

A

affter work out
(cool down)

45
Q

What are guidelines for dynamic stretching?

A

5 to 10 reps
progressivley increase ROM
Increase speed of motion

46
Q

What is stretch reflex? Is it triggared by static stretching?

A

Stretch reflex— muscles spindles activated by Rapid strech
Static streching does not triggar it.
But Ballistic (bouncing) does

47
Q

What are muscle spindles?

A

Proprioceptors that monitor changes in muscle length

48
Q

What are Golgi Tendon Organs?

A

Inhibits—Forcably relaxes muscles to reduce force
––sensitive to increases in muscular tension
– Located at musculotendinous junction
– Causes muscle to reflexively relax

49
Q

Autogenic inhibition:

A

Actively contracting muscle before passive stretch
–The tension build-up in muscle (contraction) stimulates GTO = reflexive relaxation during stretch

50
Q

Reciprocal inhibition:

A

relaxation in muscle opposing the muscle experiencing ↑ contractile force
—Tension in contracted muscle stimulates GTO & causes reflexive relaxation of the stretched muscle

(Flex quads while stretching hamstrings)

51
Q

What does PNF stand for?

A

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Stretch
–—Temporarly increases range of motion

52
Q

Isometric and concentric contraction

A

Isometric=hold
concentric = opposite (antagonists) contracting

53
Q

3 basic types of PNF stretching techniques

A

Hold-relax
– Contract-relax
– Hold-relax with agonist contraction

54
Q

Hold-Relax:

A
  1. Passive pre-stretch (take joint to normal end ROM)
  2. Isometric contraction (“hold”)
  3. “Relax” – greater passive stretch (due to autogenic inhibition)
55
Q

Contract-Relax:

A
  1. Passive pre-stretch
  2. Concentric contraction (through full ROM)
  3. Greater passive stretch (due to autogenic inhibition)
56
Q

Hold-relax with Agonist Contraction:

A
  1. Passive pre-stretch
  2. Isometric contraction
  3. Passive stretch with contraction of opposing muscle group

Final stretch is greater due to reciprocal inhibition AND autogenic inhibition; Most effective PNF stretching technique
