Physiology Of Sport And Exercise 5Th Edition: Chapter 9

Front 1

1- repetition maximum

Back 1

the maximal amount of weight that can be lifted just one time.

Front 2

aerobic power

Back 2

another name for maximal oxygen uptake or VO2 max

Front 3

anaerobic power

Back 3

mean or peak output in exercise lasting 30s or less.

Front 4

continuous training

Back 4

training at a moderate to hight intensity without stopping to rest.

Front 5

eccentric training

Back 5

training that involves eccentric action.

Front 6

electrical stimulation

Back 6

stimulation of a muscle via passing an electrical current through it.

Front 7

Fartlek training

Back 7

developed in the 1930s the term comes from the Swedish for "speed play". This type of training combines continuous and interval training and stresses both the aerobic and anaerobic energy pathways.

Front 8

free weights

Back 8

traditional resistance training modality that uses only barbells dumbbells and so on to provide resistance.

Front 9

hypertrophy

Back 9

increase in the size or mass of an organ or body tissue

Front 10

interval-circuit training

Back 10

training program that involves rapid movement from one exercise to another around a "circuit" or established set of exercises.

Front 11

interval training

Back 11

repeated breif fast paced exercise bouts with short rest intervals between bouts.

Front 12

isokinetic training

Back 12

resistance training in which the rate of movement is kept constant through the range of motion.

Front 13

isometric training

Back 13

resistance training involving a static action.

Front 14

LSD training

Back 14

endurance training long slow distance

Front 15

muscular endurance

Back 15

the ability of a muscle to resist fatigue

Front 16

needs analysis

Back 16

an assessment of factors that determine the specific training program appropriate for an individual

Front 17

plyometrics

Back 17

a type of dynamic action resistance training based on the theory that use of the stretch reflex during jumping will recruit additional motor units.

Front 18

power

Back 18

the rate of performing work., the product of force and velocity. the rate of transformation of metabolic potential energy to work or heat.

Front 19

principal of individuality

Back 19

the theory that any training program must consider the specific needs and abilities of the individual for who it is designed.

Front 20

principle of periodization

Back 20

the gradual cycling of specificity intensity and volume of training to achieve peak levels of fitness for competition.

Front 21

principle of progressive overload

Back 21

the theory that to maximize the benefits of a training program the training stimulus must be progressively increased as the body adapts to the current stimulus.

Front 22

principle of reversibility

Back 22

the theory that a training program must include a maintenance place to ensure that the gains from training are not lost.

Front 23

principal of specificity

Back 23

the theory that a training program must stress the physiological systems critical for optimal performance in a given sport to achieve desired training adaptations in that sport.

Front 24

principle of varation

Back 24

the systematic process of changing one or more variables in an exercise training program- mode volume or intensity - over time to allow for the training stimulus to remain challenging and effective

Front 25

static contraction resistance training

Back 25

resistance training that emphasizes static muscle action. also know as isometric resistance training

Front 26

strength

Back 26

the ability of a muscle to exert force-generally the maximal ability.

Front 27

variable resistance training

Back 27

a technique that allows variation in the resistance applied throughout the range of motion in an attempt to match the ability of the muscle or muscle groups to apply force at any specific point in the range of motion.
