50 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Acceleration
Rate Change of Velocity
Aggression
Negative effect caused by steroid abuse, "Roid Rage", a sports term used for players playing very hard
Amenorrhea
Direct effect of the female triad, female has irregular periods
Anabolic Steroids
They build muscle tissue, they help in recovery, and they also increase testosterone levels
Anaerobic Threshold
The percent of max V02 at which anaerobic works begins to occur
Anorexia
Eating disorder, loss of apetite
Arteriosclerosis
One's arteries harden due to cholesterol and fat
ATP & ADP
Source of energy, a tri phosphate and a di phosphate, ATP is unstable so it breaks down to form di phosphate. ADP is associated with Lactic acid
Barometric Pressure
The weight of Air right above your head, for every 1 atmosphere there are 760 mmhg's.
Biomechanics
The study of your body. The physiology behind the body.
Biomechanics
The study of your body. The physiology behind the body.
Blood Boosting and Blood Doping
Training at higher altitudes where there is less air can make one train better where there is more air. Taking blood out of one's body and adding oxygen is an example of blood doping.
Body Fat
Body composition, essential body fat for men is 3%, Essential body fat for women is 12%
Athletic men = 5-12%,
Athletic Women = 12 - 20%
Bulimia
Binge and then purge, eating disorder
Calcium Retention
In order to keep your bones strong you need to retain calcium in your bones.
Carbohydrates -
A source of energy mostly associated with anaerobic work 1st carbs, 2nd fat, and 3rd protein burn in that particular order. Simple carbs deal with sugars. Complex carbs take longer to burn.
carbon Dioxide
Carbon dioxide is what we exhale. and it is .03% of the air we breathe
Center of Gravity
one inch above your naval and one inch above your back is the center of gravity.
Curvilinear Motion
Trying to throw straight, but gravity always pulls it down and this results in the creation of the parabola.
Eating Disorder
Irregular eating habits such as bulimia, anorexia and it is also direct effect of the female triad.
Eccentric Thrust
Any force that does not go through the center of Gravity
Ergogenic Aid
Anything that will help your performance
Estrogen
Female growth hormone. Opposite of testosterone
Fat
Energy source, insulation, it is the energy source for aerobic exercise.
Fatigue
lightheaded, you fatigue quicker with anaerobic work
Female triad
Problems that women atheltes have. Eating disorder, amenorrhea, and osteperosis
Fitness
increase the risks of certain cancers.
Frostbite
Hypothermia, decrease in body temperature, the chances of frostbite increases at high altitudes
Half of the Barometric Pressure
18, 000 ft.
Heat Balance
Your body taking in as much heat as it loses.
Hemoglobin
Blood
Hydration
Hydration moves waste in and out of your cells 2.5% of fluid loss can impair perfromance.
Hormone
Hormone's move through your body slower
Hypobaric Hypoxia
low air pressure, and lack of oxygen
hypertrophy
muscle enlargement, due to increase of size in your muscle fibers
Hyperplasia
increase in the number of muscle cells, new muscles enlarging what you have
Linear Motion
motion in a straight line
Mitochondria
Fast twitch has high levels of atp, has high recovery, and high anaerobic activity, has low mitochondria, low craig cycle, and low break down
Moment of Inertia
an increase or decrease in rotary inertia will result in a comparable change in turning velocity.
Newton's law of Motion
Law of inertia = a body in motion will continue in motion inf a straight path unless acted upon by a force or friction, law of acceleration = a force will accelerate in proportion to the force placed upon it, but inversely to its mass, law of reaction = for every action there is an equal reaction
Nitrogen
its in the air, takes up most of the air, 79%
Osteoporosis
part of the female triad
oxygen
takes up 21% of the air
Parabola
linked with curvilinear motion
Placebo
fake drug used in experiments
Protein
helps rebuild muscles, develops tissue to help prepare the body, the last source of energy
RICE
Rest, Ice, compression, elevation
Rotary Motion
Motion around the axis, your arm is an example of rotary motion
Testosterone
Male growth hermone
Velocity
The rate of change of position
