Concepts
What is Physical Activity?
It's any movement performed by the body.
Mention three of the skills gone over.
Agility, balance, coordination, reaction time, speed, power.
How many times should Muscular Strength be trained per week?
2-3 times per week.
T/F: Time is the least important factor in the FITT formula.
False. All factors in the FITT formula are equally important.
Which principle states that your body will show change overtime.
Progression.
What kind of exercises are the best for warm up?
Low intensity, dynamic stretches are the best for warm ups.
T/F: Recovery is a skill needed by athletes to be good.
False, Recovery is a Principle of Fitness.
What does Muscular Endurance seeks out to do?
How long you can go performing a certain exercise or activity.
What does "FITT" stand for?
Frequency
Intensity
Time
Type
T/F: When you Overload, your muscles will adapt to the load.
True.
What is Physical Fitness?
It's the bodies ability to carry out tasks with vigor and alertness.
Most important skill to work on, regardless of activity level and discipline.
Balance
What are three ways to exercise your Cardiorespiratory system?
Jogging, swimming, cycling.
T/F: If the Intensity of an exercise is high, the Time and Reps should be high as well.
False. if Intensity is high, Time should be low. If Time is high, Intensity should be low.
Which principle states that if your body isn't using something, it won't keep it.
Reversibility.
What are the 3 types of contractions?
The three types are concentric, eccentric and isometric.
T/F: Skills are needed to increase performance, but aren't necessary to be healthy.
True.
How and how often should Flexibility be trained?
It should be trained by stretches, at least 2-3 times per week.
T/F: The FITT principle cannot be changed person to person.
False. The FITT principle can be adjusted by an individual to target their own needs.
Which principle is needed for Progression to happen?
Recovery.
Which are the three zones?
Resting zone, Aerobic zone and Anaerobic zone.
This is the speed an athlete reacts to an external stimulus.
Reaction Time.
T/F: Body Composition is not related to any of the previous health related skills.
False. Body Composition will be influenced by the other components.
What percentage can you aim to change when applying the FITT formula?
10%, anything higher at a time can cause a big strain on the body.
T/F: Individuality is the principle where you target a specific zone to work on.
False. Individuality refers to the principle that every body is different and you should focus on your own rather than trying to fit a standard routine.
Specificity is the principle where you target a specific zone to work on.
