High-intensity, intermittent bouts of exercise such as weight training, plyometric drills, and speed/agility/interval training.
Anaerobic training
The quantity of blood ejected with each beat
Stroke Volume
Assessment by experts that a test covers all relevant subjects
Content Validity
Test used to measure maximum muscular strength for lower body
1 RM back squat
Maximal rate of energy production by the combined phosphagen and lactic acid energy systems for moderate-duration activities
Anaerobic Capacity
Increase in the number of muscle fibers via longitudinal fiber splitting
Hyperplasia
Artificially increasing red blood cell mass
Blood doping
Extent to which a test score is associated with those of other accepted tests
Concurrent Validity
Three tests that measure aerobic capacity
1.5 mile run, 12 minute run, Step test
Muscular enlargement from an increase in the cross-sectional area of the existing fibers
Muscle hypertrophy
Two possible changes to the neuromuscular junction that can occur with anaerobic training
Increased area, more dispersed, irregularly-shaped synapses, or greater total length of nerve terminal branching
Aerobic endurance training results in (raised, lowered) blood lactate concentrations
Lowered
A measure of the degree of consistency or repeatability of a test
Reliability
The T test is a measure of this
Agility
The lack of consistent scores by a given tester
Intrarater Variability
The minimal essential strain is approximately this fraction of the force required to fracture bone
1/10
During aerobic exercise, blood flow to the what is significantly increased
The active muscles
How similar a test is to an important movement in a specific sport
Biomechanical movement pattern specificity
The ability to maintain static and dynamic equilibrium
Balance
The degree of tissue adaptation is proportional to this principle of exercise
Intensity
Four principles of training to increase bone strength
Magnitude of the load, Speed of loading, Direction of the forces, Volume of the load
Three possible markers of aerobic overtraining
Decreased performance, decreased body fat %, decreased VO2max, altered blood pressure, muscle soreness, altered resting HR, etc...
This type of test should come last in the sequence of tests
Aerobic capacity tests
The initial speed of a maximum aerobic speed test is set between these two values (in km/hr).
8 and 12 km/hr
With aerobic exercise, this capability of oxygen and carbon dioxide increases significantly, which facilitates their exchange.
Diffusing capability
