KIN Exam 2

Review Concepts

QuestionAnswer
The proteins involved in skeletal muscle contraction
The concept of muscular contraction (sliding filament theory) and key components
The characteristics and properties of skeletal muscle fiber types and type of physical activity associated with each
The difference between isometric, concentric, and eccentric contractions
The basic principles of anaerobic and aerobic metabolism (Energy Production) and what these terms mean
The intensity and duration components of the ATP-PC, lactic acid, and aerobic energy systems and the type of exercise associated with each
The basics of VO2max test and factors affecting it
The metabolic and structural adaptations to anaerobic and aerobic training and the cardiorespiratory responses to endurance training
The function and purpose of the cardiovascular system
What blood pressure is and what systolic and diastolic pressures are
The definition of cardiac output and the components which go into its determination
What stroke volume, heart rate, and oxygen consumption
What happens to the distribution of cardiac output from rest to maximal exercise and how this happens
The difference in CO(Q), SV, heart rate, and VO2 between trained and untrained subjects
The purpose of the pulmonary system and what are the effects of training on the lung
Approximate values for breathing frequency and tidal volume
The significance of lactate threshold
Which nutrient (carbs, fats) is primarily used for different intensities of exercise
what is General Adaptation Syndrome
The time course for muscular strength (neural vs hypertrophy)
Training the aerobic vs the anaerobic system (Differences)
The difference between intervals and continuous training
The importance intensity, frequency, duration, mode and rate of progression for exercise
Exercise prescription components (frequency, intensity, duration)
The concept of energy balance
The importance of body composition (including the two-compartment model)
Basic understanding, advantages/disadvantages (accuracy) of types of body composition measurements discussed in class
What components (and percentages) go into total energy expenditure over a typical day
The energy values of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
Factors responsible for individual differences in body fat
Understand the importance of fluid and electrolyte intake and when sports drinks are appropriate
The factors the contribute to BMR
What is the link between muscle mass and BMR
The difference between physical fitness and health
Basis of coronary heart disease; causes, risk factors (primary, secondary)
Role of exercise in heart disease and hypertension
What forms of cholesterol exist and recommended values of each
Role of exercise (type, etc) in obesity, diabetes, COPD, mental health, cancer, osteoporosis, and the immune system
what are some Common environmental problems
The body’s main ways to gain and lose heat
The role of blood flow in temperature regulation
The difference in core and shell temperatures
The different types of heat transfer and how to explain them
Acclimatization and adaptations
The acute effects of high altitude on aerobic performance
Altitude Illness
The developmental continuum applied to kinesiology
How exercise is affected by developmental changes
What performance related fitness components are
The considerations for training youth Kids are not mini adults. Children do not have the same hormone reactions. Heat stroke is more predominant because of less sweat glands. Water and Good food, motivation might not be the easiest. Focus on play!
The implications of adult development on fitness
The basics of aging physiology muscle and strength decreases, number of synapses decrease, tendency to slow down, balance/nervous system is crucial, but one of many variables, becomes fragile, skeletal system decreases
