First Class Lever

M --- F --- R



Resistive and muscular forces act on opposite sides of the fulcrum equally

Tricep pushdown

Fulcrum

The pivot point of the lever

Lever arm

A rigid body that exerts force on any object impeding it's ability to rotate.

Second Class Lever

F --- R ----- M



Muscle and resistive force act on the same side of the fulcrum. The muscle force acts through a moment arm longer than the one resistive force acts through

Calf raises

Third class lever

F --- M ----- R



Muscle and resistive forces act on the same side of the fulcrum. The muscle's moment arm is shorter than which the resistive force acts.

Most common. Bicep curl

Moment arm

The perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the fulcrum.

Force arm, lever arm, torque arm

Muscle force

Force generated by biomechanical activity. Draws opposite ends of the muscle together

Resistive force

Force generated by a source external of the body

Torque

The degree to which force rotates an object about a specified fulcrum.

What muscular action produces the greatest amount of force?

Eccentric

What form of training is most associated with increasing serum testosterone concentrations?

Strength

Strength, hypertrophy or aerobic?

What accumilates in the working muscles while near max effort?

Hydrogen ions

At what percentage of weight loss due to dehydration may begin to affect performance?

2%

90 - 100% effort

Interval training for fast glycolosis development

Work (15 to 30 sec) to rest (1 or 2 min) ratio 1 to 3 - 5

75 to 90% effort

Interval training for fast glycolosis and oxidative development

Work (1 to 3 min) to rest (3 to 9 min) ratio 1 to 3 - 4

30 to 75% effort

Interval training for oxidative development

Work (>3 min) to rest (3 to 9 min) ratio 1 to 1 - 3

20 to 30%

How many ATP are produced from one glucose molecule?

38

How to determine (volume) load when programming?

Multiplying weight used by reps done

Appropriate rest ratio for plyometric training

Work (10 seconds) to rest (50 seconds) ratio 1 to 5

Fundamental Movements of Sprinting

Early Flight > Midflight > Late Flight > Early Support > Late Support

How is "Power" calculated?

Work / Time

Where does gas exchange occur during respiration?

Bronchioles

If calcium is not returned to the sacroplasmic reticulum, what occurs in the muscle?

Fused tetany

For cross-bridge interactions during muscular contractions, what must calcium bind to?

Troponin

What contributes most to shock absorption during running?

Eccentric plantar flexion

First degree muscle strain

Partial tear characterized by strong but painful muscle activity

Second degree muscle strain

A partial tear with weak, painful muscle activity

Third degree muscle strain

Complete tear of fibers and manifested by very weak, painless muscle activity

Macrotrauma

A specific, sudden episode of overload injury to a given tissue

Microtrauma

Result from repeated, abnormal stress applied to tissue by continuous training and/or too little recovery. Over use injury

Time range for an appropriate 40 yard dash

4.2 to 5.1 seconds

Recommended carb intake ratio for endurance athletes

8 to 10 g per kg of body weight

Recommended carb intake for power athletes

5 to 6 g per kg of body weight

Recommended fiber intake

Women - 20 to 29 g


Men - 30 to 38 g

Recommended protein intake

Minimum - 0.8 to 1 g per kg of body weight


Athlete - 1.2 to 1.7 g per kg of body weight



Demands higher when on kcal restriction, especially w/ weight loss. Concerns over nitrogen breakdown in renal system

Calories per gram of macro nutrients

Carb 4 kcal


Pro 4 kcal


Fat 9 kcal


Alcohol 7 kcal

How is "Work" calculated?

Force x Displacement

How is "Force" calculated?

Mass x Acceleration

How to convert pounds of force to newtons

Multiply by 4.448

How to convert kilograms of force to newtons

Multiply by 9.807 (Or local acceleration of gravity, if available)

Components of the adrenal gland

The medulla (Center) and the cortex (Shell)

Purpose of the adrenal gland

Hormonal response and release for the body. Hormones include:



Glucocorticoids (cortisol) and catecholamines (epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine)

Relationship of glucocorticoids and exercise

Largely focus on cortisol.



Tied to catabolic affect of carbohydrate breakdown and glycogen storage in the muscle.



Overexposure may lead to excess atrophy. Controlled acute exposure however is tied to remodeling of muscle tissue

Relationship of catecholamines and exercise

Primarily focus on epinephrine. Also includes norepinephrine and dopamine.



Tied to increased metabolic enzyme activity, muscle contraction rate, blood pressure, energy availablilty, muscle blood flow (vasodilation) and secretion of hormones like testosterone

What is the Tanner classification?



How many stages are in it?

Refers to the stage of biological development in a child.



There are 5 stages



1 - Immature, preadolescent stage



5 - Full sexual maturation

How to calculate work in Jules?

Newtons x meters

What is the International System of Units (SI)?

World wide standard of consistent units used when to gauge power/strength of athletes.



Time in seconds (s)


Force in Newtons (N)


Distance meters (m)



Work in Jules (J or N*m)


Power in Watts (W or J/s)

Protein intake for endurance athletes

1 to 1.6 g per kg of body weight
