Physiology Of Sport And Exercise 5Th Edition: Chapter 11

Front 1

aerobic training

Back 1

training that improves the efficiency of the aerobic energy producing systems and can improve cardirespiratory endurance

Front 2

anaerobic training

Back 2

training that improves the efficiency of the anaerobic energy producing systems and can increase muscular strength and tolerance for acid bas imbalances during hight intensity effort.

Front 3

athlete's heart

Back 3

a nonpathological enlarged heart often found in endurance athletes that results primarily from left ventricular hypertrophy in response to training.

Front 4

capillary to fiber ratio

Back 4

the number of capillaries to muscle fiber.

Front 5

cardiac hypertrophy

Back 5

enlargement of the heart by increases in muscle wall thickness or chamber size or both.

Front 6

cardiorespiratory endurance

Back 6

the ability of the body to sustain prolonged exercise.

Front 7

cross training

Back 7

training for more than one sport at the same time or training multiple fitness components such as strength endurance within the same period.

Front 8

Fick equation

Back 8

VO2=QX(a-v)O2 difference

Front 9

glycogen sparing

Back 9

increase reliance on fats for energy production during endurance activity rather than stores of glycogen.

Front 10

high-intensity interval training

Back 10

training that uses short burst of intense exercise interspersed with only a dew minutes of rest or low intensity exercise.

Front 11

high responders

Back 11

those individual in a population that show clear or exaggerated responses or adaptations to a stimulus.

Front 12

low responders

Back 12

those individual in a population that show little or no response or adaptation to stimulus.

Front 13

mitochondrial oxidative enzymes

Back 13

oxidative enzymes located in the mitochondria

Front 14

oxygen transport system

Back 14

the components of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems involves in transporting oxygen.

Front 15

specificity of training

Back 15

the principle that physiological adaptions in response to physical training are highly specific to the nature of the training activity.

Front 16

submaximal endurance capacity

Back 16

the average absolute power output a person can maintain during a fixed period of time on a cycle ergometer or the average speed or velocity a person can maintain during a fixed period of time.
