Specialization & special issues
100

The process of taking on adult form and becoming fully functional, defined by the system or function being considered.

What is maturation?

100

This measure is high in children but decreases linearly with age.

What is Heart Rate?

100

A form of exercise that involves working against a force to build muscle strength, endurance, and size.

What is resistance training?

100

This is the maximum amount of time recommended for moderate activity for children. 

What is 60 minutes? 

100

More suspetable to heat and cold.

What are kids? 

200

 Bone structural integrity and bone health.

What does bone mineral density examine?

200

Neural Maturation is the limiting factor for this physiological adaptation.

What is strength Gains?

200

The maximum amount of energy produced by the body’s systems without energy oxygen during high- intensity, short duration exercise

What is anaerobic capacity?

200

Rapid decline in activity from this stage to adulthood 

What is adolescents? 

200

Major world event that influenced early sport specialization.

What is the Olympics?  

300

Increased myofilaments and myofibrils.

What increases to allow muscle fibre hypertrophy?

300

The main fuel children rely on during exercise

What is fat oxidation?

300

The maximum rate at which the body can take in, transport, and utilize oxygen during prolonged, sustained exercise.

What is aerobic capacity?

300

This is declined at a rate of 5 minutes daily during this stage. 

What is young adulthood? 

300

A common issue with early sport specialization.

What is injury and unbalanced motor development?  

400
A cell types that can increase in both size and number throughout a lifetime. 

What is a fat cell? 

400

This measure of cardiovascular fitness limits endurance performance in Children due to their lower cardiac output.

What is VO2 max?

400

The amount of blood ejected by the heart's left ventricle in one contraction.

What is stroke volume?

400

These children are more active as compared to overweight children. 

What is a normal body weight? 

400

This type of heat loss or gain is for least likely for children

What is evaporation?  

500

Allows faster reactions and more skilled performance.

What is myelination? 

500

This anaerobic form of exercise is lower in children than in adults, even when scaled for body mass.

What is Peak Power?

500

Principle of Specificity, Principle of Progressive Overload, Principle of Reversibility, Principle of Recovery, Principle of Individualisation, Principle of Periodisation  

What are the training principles?

500

This is an issue in children despite increased guidelines and interventions.

500

Determined by calcium bone maturation

What is skeletal age?
