Intro to Exercise Science Finals
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Discipline | body of knowledge organized around a certain theme (or focus) |
| What are the major subdisciplines? | Sport Psych, Biomechanics, Exercise Physiology, Epidemiology, & Motor Behavior |
| Sport Psych | Psychological factors that influence participation/experience in exercise, and understanding psychological effect from exercise/PA |
| Biomechanics | Basic laws of mechanical physics affect human structure & function, improve our movements, main themes are function and structure |
| Exercise Physiology | How to maximize performance, how PA improve health/fitness, how exercise treat/prevent disease |
| Epidemiology | Identify the distribution/determinants of PA, determine the association of PA with disease prevention, treatment, and longevity, develop PA guidelines |
| Motor Behavior | How humans learn motor skills, understand human response selection & execution, how our neuromuscular system coordinate muscle and limbs |
| Motor learning | Understand influence of feedback, practice, and individual differences |
| Motor control | Understanding how to coordinate the muscles & joints during movement |
| Motor development | Exploring how motor learning and control vary across age groups |
| Kinesiology | Larger discipline focusing on all aspects of PA |
| How do individuals learn PA? | Actual PA experience, scholarly study and research, and professional experience implementing PA |
| Exercise science | Larger discipline focusing on all aspects of PA |
| Training exercise | Athletic training, centered around particular goal |
| Health-related exercise | Prevent premature death and mitigate disease |
| Cosmetic exercise | Bodybuilding |
| Therapeutic exercise | Cardiac rehab, PT, corrective exercise |
| Leading certifying organizations | NASM, ACSM, ACE, AFAA, NSCA |
| Ergonomics | Optimizing the interaction btwn individuals and their environment during PA to enhance performance, reduce injuries, and improve well-being |
| Physiology | How the body functions and responds to exercise |
| Mitigation | Injury prevention |
| Strength training | Any form of exercise where muscles contract against a force, either body weight or external resistance. Primary goal is to increase muscle strength and size, and endurance |
| Qualitative | Focused on the meaning, the knowledge |
| Quantitative | Focused on the numbers, the stats |
| Longitudinal | Type of study where researchers observe the same subjects repeatedly over an extended period to track changes, trends, or developments |
| Sport psych history | Late 1800s, Norman Triplett, performance of bike racers, cyclists who trained along other cyclists performed better than when trying on their own to improve |
| Evidence-based practice 3 types of evidence to treat clients | Scientific research, professional and clinical experience, and values and specific characteristics of the client |
| FITT-VP | Frequency, intensity, time, type, volume |
| THR | [(HRmax-HRrest) x % intensity desired]+HRrest |
| HRmax | 220-age |
| Study Aerobic and Resistance ExRx | Study Aerobic and Resistance ExRx |
