Q

Velocity is the ____ of change of _____

A

Rate, position

22
Q

is reflected by the slope of the position curve at some instant in time

A

instantaneous velocity

23
Q

Acceleration is the rate of change of _____

A

velocity

24
Q

is reflected by the slope of the velocity curve at some instant in time

A

instantaneous acceleration

25
Q

Imaginary point in a body around which weight is evenly distributed
COG= center of mass on the earth
Where weight vector acts

A

Center of Gravity

26
Q

Natural property of a body to resist a change in motion (to being accelerated)
A body will stay at rest….
A body will continue to move with the same velocity unless (external force being applied)

A

Newton’s 1st Law: Inertia

27
Q

F=ma relationship
Cause (F) and effect (a) relationship
a directly proportional to and in the same direction as F
a inversely proportional to m

A

Newton’s second law: acceleration

28
Q

Action-Reaction describes how object interact with one another
If one body exerts a force on a second body, the second exerts back on the first force of equal magnitude but opposite direction
Example: interaction between the foot and ground

A

Newton’s 3rd Law: Action/Reaction

29
Q

The ACSM already published a position stand covering this same topic in 2002… why did they do a new one? Does publishing a new one mean that they were wrong?

A

This means that the scientific evidence regarding progression has evolved over the past decade. Since the science behind progression is everchanging it is important to revise or republish old and new scientific findings. It does not mean old publications were wrong but updated to newer evidence-based adaptations.

30
Q

An important consideration of this document is that it gives “evidence-based guidelines”. Based on context, and the two links you read prior to taking on this paper, what is “evidence-based guidelines”?

A

According to the article, “evidence-based guidelines” are based on the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. Evidence-based in regards to guidelines are different levels of scientific research that are graded on the level of strength of the study and quantity of the data. The article highlights that random controlled trials with a rich body of data are the highest levels of the source of evidence

31
Q

What is the training principle of “Progressive Overload”?

A

It is the gradual increase of stress placed on the body when exercising and how the body adapts to the stress.

32
Q

What is the Training principle of “Variation”?

A

The principle of variation, also known as periodization, is the structured approach to training by changing one or more variables in a program as time progresses. This allows the training stimulus to stay effective and challenging.

33
Q

What benefits are older adults likely to see as a result of resistance training?

A

Muscular strength and power, bmd, cardio,psychological health, joint function, overall quality of life

34
Q

What can lifting weights do for me?

A

Increased flexibility
Decreases risk of T2D increases sensitivity to insulin
Increase HDL (good) cholesterol
Decreased LDL cholesterol
Decreased blood pressure
Increases BMD

35
Q

What does proportional mean?

A

If something is “proportional to” something else, this means that as the first thing changes, the second thing will change at the same rate. For example, if the first thing were to increase by 2 times, then the second thing would also increase by 2 times. Likewise, if the first thing decreased by 1/2, then the second thing would also decrease by 1/2.

36
Q

________ that results from an applied force is proportional to and in the same direction of the applied force in Newton’s second law

A

Acceleration

37
Q

Another implication of Newton’s second law is that acceleration resulting from a given force is inversely proportional to the _____ .

A

Mass

38
Q

How does the mass of an object influence how much acceleration it experiences from a given force?

A

If the mass of an object increases the acceleration proportionally decreases if given a force that is the same and vice versa. This means that mass and acceleration have an inverse relationship.

39
Q

What is the force-velocity relationship

A

an inverse relationship

40
Q

explain how athletes can improve how fast they can run (focus on the foot contact).

A

Athlete’s can improve their times by contacting the ground with more force with higher forces the higher acceleration. In turn, increasing rate of force development thus increasing the acceleration of the athlete and foot turnover.

41
Q

_______exercises the person either leaves the ground or an external load is thrown into space. During a ______ exercise, the person typically exerts maximal force through the whole range of motion typically resulting in a higher rate of force development.

A

Ballistic, Ballistic

42
Q

during a_____exercise, there is a braking component applied and the person is not exerting force through the whole range of motion

A

non ballistic

43
Q

Explain the unloading phase of the CMJ?

A

During the unloading phase of the countermovement jump the center of gravity of the person moves downwards towards the acceleration of gravity.

44
Q

During the _____ phase the downward motion from the unloading phase is resisted by the agonist jumping muscles by eccentric contraction.

A

braking phase

45
Q

The beginning of ______ phase starts when the Center of Gravity turns from negative to a positive velocity.

A

Propulsion

46
Q

The ____subphase during this phase is when there is a concentric contraction of the jumping muscles and force is exerted upwards leading to propulsion/takeoff

A

Active

47
Q

Why might choosing the exercises and loads that maximize mechanical power output be a good idea in training? (Think training principles)

A

According to the principle of The Specific Adaptations to Imposed Demands (SAID) when using exercises that require a maximal mechanical power output, the stresses these specific exercises produce will lead to greater change and adaptations in maximal mechanical output. For example, some sports like football require maximal power output so training in specific exercises with loads that maximize mechanical output like power cleans will lead to greater changes.
