Components of Fitness
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Components of Fitness | strength, power, muscular endurance, flexibility, ability to recover, body composition, aerobic power, aerobic endurance, skill, agility, balance, speed, heat dissipation/thermoregulation |
Positive phase of repetition | -Up, against gravity -Concentric (shortening) muscle contraction |
Negative phase of repetition | Negative phase Down, with gravity Eccentric (lengthening) muscle contraction |
Relative load | -What % of max strength -What % of body weight |
Power | Combination of strength and speed |
Power = | Work/Time, a combonation of strength and speed. |
Maximum power is expressed at __________ speeds | medium |
Sprinting and jumping effectively ___________ power | develop |
Effective power exercises can produce profound short term ________________. | fatigue |
Muscular endurance | # of reps/duration with which you can persist at a high-intensity exercise |
Muscular endurance requires... | Substantial anaerobic contribution |
Muscular endurance is influenced by | training history |
Development of muscular endurance is facilitated by: | Understanding basic principles of training Following an appropriate training strategy Psychological toughness to repeadtedley endure discomfort |
ME is best developed in the weight room by performing 15-20 ___________ | Reps |
ME is best developed in the weight room by performing 2-3 ___________ | Sets |
ME is best developed in the weight room by resting _____ minutes | 5-7 |
How rapidly and completely you can restore yourself to a non-fatigued state after exercise | Ability to Recover |
During recovery, your cardio system works hard enough to “______________” that you incurred during exercise | repay the oxygen debt |
The more _______ your cardio system is, (higher aerobic power), the faster you can “repay the oxygen debt” and restore order within your muscle cells | fit |
The ability to recover is best developed by: | High-intensity aerobic intervals ranging from 3 to 15 minutes (the shorter the duration, the higher the intensity you must perform) |
Determines how many high-intensity sets or repeats you can do within a given period of time. | Ability to recover |
Strength/power athletes would receive greater benefit if their aerobic training was: | of higher intensity of Shorter duration Repeated (intervals) |
Fat is a good _________ _____________, and with more fat you have trouble getting rid of heat | thermal insulator |
Fat is “dead weight”, and ____________↑ the amount of work you have to do to move yourself around | increases |
Three basic steps to eliminate excess body fat: | Burn more calories than you consume Consume less sugar and white flour Exercise more frequently |
Maximum range of motion of a joint | Flexibility |
In some joints, ROM is limited by , | bone shape ligamentous constrain contact with another segment (Knee) |
Knee and elbow joint flexibility can be improved by exercise. (T/F) | False, they cannot. |
