Training methods
What training method involves alternating periods of high-intensity exercise with low-intensity recovery periods
Fartlek
The rate of motion of an object; how fast you can move your body/body part from one point to another. Measured as distance/time.
Speed
What does F stand for in FITT
Frequency
Identify the NCD that includes type 2 diabetes as a focus
Cardiovascular disease, obesity
Definition of Life expectancy
An indication of how long a person can expect to live
What training method would help an athletes Aerobic capacity
Continuous training - Long slow distance running
The ability to change direction rapidly and accurately, often in response to a stimulus. Has a cognitive, physical and technical aspect.
Which training principle states that in order to see improvements, the body must be subjected to increased loads over time
Progressive overload
True or false: Covid 19 is an example of an NCD
Refers to ill-health in an individual and the levels of ill-health in a population or group
morbidity
What training method would be best to improve an athletes muscular power
Plyometric training
Which fitness test would be used to measure an athlete’s muscular endurance
max push up test, max sit up test
If you don't use it , you'll lose it
reversibility
What is a risk factor
increase the possibility of an individual developing a health problem.
the number of deaths that occur in a population.
Mortality
What method of stretching would be beneficial to an athlete after completing a training session
Static and PNF stretches
The proportions of bone, muscle and fat within the body. Can be divided into to components; fat-free mass & fat mass.
Body composition
The energy demand of the main training activities must be specific to the energy demand of the activity.
Specificity
provide 3 examples of a risk factor
Smoking, alcohol, poor diet
Can be shown as the total of cases of a disease or condition present in a population at a given time.
Prevalence
A ‘fixed load’ vs ‘fixed time’ is associated with which method of training
Circuit
The aerobic training zone is achieved my exercising at an intensity of
60 - 75% of Max HR
5 ways we can progressively overload
Increase the resistance (heavier weight)
Increase the repetitions
Increase training frequency
Decrease rest time between sets
Intensity: Increasing the difficulty of the exercise you do.
Heart disease, cancer, diabetes
a measure of the number of new cases of a characteristic that develop in a population in a specified time period
Incidence
