| cardiac muscle tissue | smooth muscle, involuntary, fatigue resistant |
| smooth muscle tissue | lines internal organs, involuntary |
| skeletal muscle tissue | most abundant type and voluntary |
| isometric action | muscle produces force but there is no resulting movement and no change in muscle length |
| isotonic | muscle shortens and lengthens as force is generated against an external load |
| concentric phase | shortening phase of an isotonic muscle action - exteranal load is lifted |
| eccentric phase | lengthening phase -load is lowered |

| antagonist | muscles that work in direct opposition to the agonist |
| diathrodial joint | joint between the glenoid fosssa of the scapula and teh humerus. |
| Sliding Filament Theory | during muscle contract - an action potential is delivered by the central nervous system to the muscle |
| flexion | movement that decreases the relative joint angle/bring 2 body parts closer together |
| abduction | movement away from the midline |
| adduction | movement towards the midline |
| shoulder extension | occurs during the concentric phase of a dumbbell chesk press |
| latissimus dorsi | primary muscle during shoulder adduction |
| hip flex | joint action created by contraction of the illoposoas muscle group |
| artery | blood vessle that carries oxygenated blood away from the heart |
| aorta | largest artery - transports bloood fromleft ventricle |
| type 1 | slow twich muscle fibers slow oxidavite muscle fibers - slower speed of contraction/high resistance to fatigue/produce energy thru aerobic metabolism |
| type 11a | fast twitch muscle fibers fast speed contraction/moderate resistance to fatigue/produced thru aerobic & anerobic metabolism |
| type 11b or 11x | fast twich muscle fiblers fast speed contraction/high force production/ low resistance to fatigue/produce energy thru anaerobic metabolism/ greatest potential for hypertrophy |
| twitch | single ectrical impulse causing excitation of the muscle fiber followed by complete relaxation. |
| long chains of glucose are stored as glycogen in | skeletal muscle & liver |
| phosphagen system | responsible for the energy supplied during power and speed activities |
| anaerobic glycolysis | "absence of oxygen" high intensity, short-duration activities (2-3 minutes) and moderate intensity resistance training. |
| aerobic glycolysis | low to moderate intensity/ endurance |
| increase stroke volume | most significant impact on increased maximal oxygen consuption with regular endurance exercise training. |
| carbohydrates | perfered source of energy for the body 1 gr = 4 calories |
| RDA - recommended dietary allowance | established nutrient level, based on scientific evidence to meet the requirements of nearly all healthy individuals |
| macromineral | greater than 20 milligrams - calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and sodium. |
| trace minerals | microminerals copper, iron, iodine, zinc or other |
| hyponatremia | (drink too much water )dangerous condition in which the blood's water-to-sodium ration is severely elevated causing a decrease in plasma sodium concentration |
| 24 oz | drink this amount for every pound lost durig sweat after exercise. |
| 1, 500 | recommended daily sodium intake for people over 51 years old |
| 10% daily calories | consume % daily calories from saturated fats by replacing them with mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acidis |
| Percent (%) Daily Values are based on ##### calorie diet | 2,000 |
| AI for dietary fiber for man and woman | 25 grams = woman 38 grams = man |
| total daily energy expenditure | # of calories expended throughout the course of a day |
| National Weight Control Registry (NWCR) | perform regular moderate-intensity physical activity often > 300 minutes per week. less than 30% calories from fat eat 5 meals/snacks per day monitor body weight 1x per week less than 10 hours per week tv watching |

| reciprocal inhibition | muscles that are shortened are over-stimulated by the nerous system and become dominate, muscles taht are lengthened become passive or weak |
