100

This muscle at the front of the thigh plays leg extension.

what are quads, or quadriceps femoris

100

100 points for each essential electrolyte in the human body. Essential is a loose term and doesn't need to have been in the slides

sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, calcium, phosphate, and more

100

what is the most key part of planning an offseason

RECOVERY

100

four most common injuries (for track)

shin splints, stress fractures, muscle strains, jumper knee/tendonitis 

100

This American sprinter just won the 60m world championships

Christian Coleman

200

This is the scarring of muscle tissue and begins to occur 2 weeks after activity unless properly recovered.

What is fibrosis.

200
This "universal solvent" is important to have when exercising.

Water, H2O, oxidane

200

what is the impact of too high or too low volume 

low volume means no impact high volume = overtraining and longer recovery

200

a small crack that forms in the bone due to repetitive force

Stress fractures

200

The greatest high school athlete to ever run the 400 meters indoors. (I high-fived him)

King Quincy Wilson: 45.76
300

Short, high intensity, strength training leads to what changes in muscle?

Muscle cells becoming thicker and stronger. Muscle damage is also accepted.

300

These 3 macromolecule groups are main sources of energy and material for the body.

Proteins, Carbohydrates, Lipids (fats)

300

What can a person expect to happen to their performance if they have consistently been sleeping less than 7 hours a day for a month

their body is slowly going to run into the symptoms of overfitting as body is not fully recovering until their training hurts more than it helps.

300

This injury is caused by micro-tears in the connective tissue between the muscle and the shinbone

Tibialis Stress Disorder (Shin splints)

300

She is the most decorated track athlete in world athletics championship medals, and second in terms of Olympic medals.

Allyson Felix

400

Endurance training leads to what changes in muscle?

More mitochondria created in each muscle cell.

400

One molecule of glucose will produce around how much ATP and how long after activity

Accepting 31-39 ATP per molecule

10 seconds to 2-3 minutes.

400

order of energy systems used as time goes up

Phosphocreatine, anaerobic, aerobic, fats

400

what are the 5 main causes of muscle strains 

bad warmup, Fatigue, bad form, overuse, weak

400

This American middle/long distance runner won a silver medal at Glasgow. He was the NCAA D1 champion in the 1500 in 2019

Yared Nuguse

500

Which ion binds to troponin to allow for actin and myosin filaments to bind and contract.

Calcium ion

Ca2+ for 1 bonus point/prize

500

This energy system creates energy almost immediately after activity begins and can provide energy for upwards of 6-8 seconds.

ATP phosphocreatine system,

ATP-PCr

500

Most important factor out of volume, frequency, and intensity. 

Intensity

500

The difference between a strain and a tear

A strain is damage but not a complete tear, a tear tears the muscle.

500

This Czech athlete became the javelin world record holder in 1996. Bonus points for distance within 0.5 meters.
