Exercise Physiology |
Basic and applied science that describes body's response to exercise and adaptation to training |
|
Exercise |
Single, acute bout of physical exertion or muscular activity that req. an E. expenditure above resting levels. |
|
Exercise Training |
consistent progression of exercise sessions designed to improve physiological function |
|
Criterion test |
Standard (precise and direct measure) Ex. max test that collects expired gases to evaluate aerobic fitness (VO2max) |
|
Field Test |
estimates a criterion value Ex. sub max cycle test to estimate max aerobic fitness. |
|
Last Bout Training Effects |
benefits that occur immediately after the exercise session (lower BP then returns to baseline) |
|
Augmented Last Bout |
Dec. blood pressure that remains lower than when training began |
|
Physical fitness |
Physiological state of well being that provides foundation for the task of daily living, protection from diseases associated with inactivity, and the ability to participate in a sport or activity |
|
Health related Fitness |
directed toward prevention or rehabilitation from disease and the development of improved functional capacity |
|
Sport related fitness |
more narrow focus directed towards optimizing athletic performance |
|
8 principles/guidelines that form basis of development of an exercise program |
1. Specificity: 'SAID' - Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands 2. Overload - inc. demand over normal conditions (freq, intensity, duration) 3. Adaptation - change in physiological fxn in response to training 4. Progression - change in overload in response to adaptation 5. Retrogression - dec. in progress from over training 6. Maintenance - sustain the achieved adaptation with the most efficient use of effort 7. Individualization - personalize exercise program 8. Warm up/cool down - prepares body for activity and allows for gradual return to resting |
|
Define metabolism & anabolism/catabolic |
Sum of all energy transformations taking place in body. anabolic: building up tissues Catabolic: tearing down tissues. |
