This is the maximal force that a muscle or muscle group can develop.
What is strength?
100
One or more aspects of training should be altered overtime to maximize the effectiveness of training.
What is the principle of periodization / variation?
100
This resistance training soreness appears 24-48 hours after a training session.
What is delayed onset muscle soreness?
100
This type of endurance relates to the ability to sustain prolonged (>20 minutes), dynamic whole-body exercise using large muscle groups.
What is cardiorespiratory endurance?
100
This body composition measurement technique relies on tissue conductivity.
What is bioelectrical impedance?
200
This is the maximal weight an individual can only lift once.
What is 1-RM?
200
Systematically increasing the demands placed on the body is necessary for further improvements.
What is the principle of progressive overload?
200
Initial gains of strength are mostly the result of this type of adaptation.
What is neuromuscular adaptation?
200
This is defined as cardiac hypertrophy that results from exercise due to increased left ventricular volume.
What is athlete's heart?
200
This is composed of all of the body's bone, muscle, organs, and connective tissue.
What is fat-free mass?
300
This = (force x distance)/time.
What is power?
300
Training programs should include a maintenance program to avoid a loss in conditioning.
"Use it, or lose it."
What is the principle of reversibility?
300
An increase in the number of muscle fibers.
What is hyperplasia?
300
These cellular structures increase in size and number as a result of aerobic training.
What are mitochondria?
300
Recommended intake of this macronutrient is no greater than 35% of total caloric intake.
What is fat?
400
This is defined as the rate of energy release by cellular metabolic processes that depend upon the availability of oxygen.
What is aerobic power?
400
Training programs should reflect the goals or needs of the competition or sport.
What is the principle of specificity?
400
Synthesis of this is likely to be suppressed during resistance training, but increase after resistance training.
What is protein?
400
After aerobic training, an individual is able to increase fat utilization and decrease utilization of this carbohydrate fuel source.
What is glycogen?
400
Some amino acids are labeled this way because the body is able to synthesize them.
What are nonessential amino acids?
500
This is defined as the rate of energy release by cellular metabolic processes that function without the involvement of oxygen.
What is anaerobic power?
500
This principle states that people will respond differently to training programs, unless they are identical twins because they possess the same genetic characteristics.
What is the principle of individuality?
500
These types of contractions are essential for hypertrophy and strength gains.
What are eccentric contractions?
500
After aerobic training, an individual can sustain exercise at a higher level of VO2max due to improvements in this physiological marker.
What is the lactate threshold?
500
This micronutrient is essential for bone, nerve transmission, enzyme activation, cell membrane permeability, and muscle contractions.
