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.
