The maximum load that the client can handle for only one repetition.
|
1-repetition maximum (1RM) |
|
Rule states that if the client can complete two more repetitions than the repetition goal in the final set of an exercise for two consecutive training sessions, the load in all of the sets for that exercise during subsequent training sessions can be increased. |
2-for-2 rule |
|
Uses a rest interval of 5 to 45 seconds between each repetition, in which the load increases across the set
|
Ascending cluster set |
|
Exercises that usually recruit smaller muscle areas (i.e., upper arm, abdominals, calf, neck, forearm, lower back, or anterior lower leg), involve only one primary joint (single-joint exercises), and are considered less important to improving sport performance |
Assistance exercises |
|
Completing a set of two different exercises in succession without an intervening rest interval; often used by bodybuilders in an attempt to induce muscular hypertrophy. |
Compound set |
|
Exercises that recruit one or more large muscle areas (i.e., chest, shoulder, back, hip, or thigh), involve two or more primary joints (multijoint exercises), and receive priority when one is selecting exercises because of their direct application to the sport. |
Core exercise |
|
the order in which the exercises are performed during the workout. |
Exercise order |
|
the knowledge and skill to perform resistance training exercises properly |
Exercise technique experience |
|
a simple yet profound idea on which all program designs are based, generally referring to the 3 phase response of one's body to a stressor. |
General Adaptive Syndrome (GAS) |
|
Period consisting of 5-10 minutes of slow activity, such as jogging or skipping. |
General warm up |
|
The number of repetitions a client is assigned to perform for an exercise. |
Goal repetitions |
|
Common sites for joint and muscle injury and causative factors |
Injury analysis |
|
the amount of weight assigned to an exercise set and is often characterized as the most critical aspect of a resistance training program |
Load |
|
the linking of the general physical preparation phase, the specific preparation phase, the pre-competitive phase, the competitive phase, and the peak phase. Occasionally, termed the “annual plan”. |
Macrocycle |
|
An intermediate duration of time planning that usually lasts from weeks to a few months. |
Mesocycle |
|
a smaller time division that lasts from one to a few weeks. |
Microcycle |
|
An exercise that involves movement at two or more primary joints. |
Multi-joint exercise |
|
Body and limb movement patterns and muscular involvement |
Movement analysis |
|
the ability to move your body or an object repeatedly without getting tired |
Muscular endurance |
|
an increase in muscle mass and cross-sectional area. The increase in dimension is due to an increase in the size (not length) of individual muscle fibers |
Muscular hypertrophy |
|
the ability to exert a maximal force in as short a time as possible |
Muscular power |
|
the maximum amount of force that a muscle can exert against some form of resistance in a single effort |
Muscular strength |
|
a balance of muscular strength across joints and between opposing muscle groups |
Muscle balance |
|
a two-stage process that includes an evaluation of the requirements and characteristics of the sport and an assessment of the athlete. |
Needs analysis |
|
a training stress or intensity that is greater than what a client is used to. |
Overload |
|
analysis that distinguishes strength, power, hypertrophy, and muscular endurance priorities |
Physiological analysis |
|
A structural core exercise that is purposely performed very quickly. |
Power exercises |
|
a viable ordering method that purposely fatigues a large muscle group as a result of performance of a single-joint exercise prior to a multi-joint exercise involving the same muscle |
Pre-exhaustion |
|
the actual exercises, sets, repetitions, resistances, inter-set rest periods, inter-lesson rest periods, and so forth |
Program |
|
The gradual and consistent increase in the intensity of an exercise program. The most frequently used method is changing the load and volume lifted in each exercise. |
Progression |
|
The process of altering training stress as a client adapts |
Progressive overload |
|
The number of times an exercise can be performed |
Repetition |
|
the maximum load that the client can handle in a specific exercise for specific number of repetitions. |
Repetition maximum (RM) |
|
an alternative method of intensity that allows for performance of a specific number of repetitions. |
Repetition maximum (RM) target |
|
when the client uses the heaviest weight he or she can to perform the exercise for the number of repetitions within the range. |
Repetition maximum zone (RM target zone) |
|
the time period between multiple sets. |
Rest interval |
|
principle stating that one's body will adapt to exactly what is demanded of it—no more and no less |
SAID principle (Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands) |
|
a periodic shifting of targeted training goals in a sequential fashion, in order to avoid stagnation and over-training while encouraging physiological and performance adaptions. |
Sequencing |
|
a group of repetitions sequentially performed before the athlete stops to rest |
Set |
|
an exercise that involves movement at only one primary joint. |
Single-joint exercise |
|
Period which incorporates movements similar to the movements of the athlete's sport.
It involves 8-12 minutes of dynamic stretching that focuses on movements that move through the range of motion required for the sport. |
Specific warm up |
|
refers to training a client in a specific way to produce a targeted change or result. |
Specificity of training |
|
An exercise routine in which different muscle groups are trained on different days or training sessions. |
Split routine |
|
uses a rest interval of 5 to 45 seconds between each repetition, in which the load is not altered across the set |
Standard cluster set |
|
A core exercise that emphasizes loading the spine directly (e.g., back squat) or indirectly (e.g., power clean) |
Structural exercise |
|
the performance of two exercises that activate opposing or antagonistic muscle groups (e.g., biceps curl and triceps press) with no rest between each exercise; popular among bodybuilders, individuals who are attempting to increase muscular endurance, and individuals with limited time for training. |
Super set |

Training background |
|
the number of workouts a client will undertake during one week. |
Training Frequency |
|
An athlete’s current condition or level of preparedness to begin a new or revised program |
Training status |
|
uses a rest interval of 5 to 45 seconds between each repetition, in which the load is increased and then decreased within the set |

total amount of weight lifted in a training session |
