Exercise Prescription and Training for Sport
100

The stress placed on the body must be increased gradually for the training stimulus to remain effective in producing further improvements

What is the principle of progressive overload?
100

If rate of oxidative production of ATP is low, then this power is low.

What is aerobic?

100

Maximal anaerobic capacity will involve maximal ATP production from this.

What is PCr?

100

This is cardiac outputs change in response to aerobic training. 

What is increases at max exercise?

100

Resistance training programs aimed at improving strength should involve these contractions. 

What are both concentric and eccentric?

200

The two factors most manipulated for increased performance.

What are volume and intensity?

200

What factor plays the biggest role in determining individual differences in VO2max

What are genetics?

200

After chronic endurance training, the RER shifts down indicating more reliance on this fuel source. 

What is fat?

200

Strength increases in older populations are primarily due to this change.

What are neural adaptations?

200

This training involves an athlete spontaneously alternating the pace of a running workout between high speed and jogging speed with no regard for either distance or time.

What is fartlek training?

300

Static contraction resistance training is most effective for this situation.

What is building strength during rehabilitation?

300

These are three mechanisms that increase stroke volume after training.

What are increased plasma volume, increased filling time, increased LV wall thickness and chamber volume, decreased afterload?

300

This amino acid acts as a trigger for muscle protein synthesis.

What is leucine?

300

To train your anaerobic glycolytic system, this percentage of maximum heart rate should be attained.

What is 85-100%?

300

Overtraining that is characterized by increased resting heart rate and blood pressure, loss of appetite and body weight, sleep and emotional disturbances, and increased BMR is likely mediated by this branch of the autonomic nervous system.

what is the sympathetic nervous system?

400
This is when electrical stimulation is most beneficial for training.

What is immobilization or rehabilitation after an injury?

400
This is the splitting of muscle fibers to increase the number of fibers per muscle. 

What is hyperplasia?

400

This is why there is an increase in (a-v)O2 difference after aerobic training.

What is tissue O2 extraction increases?

400

The enzyme that controls the rate of protein synthesis (hypertrophy) in myofibrils.

What is mTOR?

400

These factors are least affected by detraining

What are speed and agility?

500

Muscular endurance can be assessed through measuring this.

What is number of repetitions at a specific load?

500
The highest possible VO2max occurs after this amount of time.

What is 12-18 months?

500
This is the key regulator protein involved in mitochondria biogenesis in skeletal muscle. 

what is PGC-1alpha?

500

To increase muscle size, this amount of protein should be consumed per day

What is 1.6-1.7g/kg BM?

500

This type of exercise uses the stretch reflex to facilitate recruitment of motor units.

What is plyometric training?
