Based on the Hennemans size principle of motor unit recruitment, high threhsold type II motor units are recruit when?
When more force is required for a given task
100

If someone is trainig for hypertorphy, what is the most importat thing to consider in order to maximize their trainining and progress?

Effort and or proximity to failure

100

Top sprinters are faster because of what?

Greater stride lengths, and faster stride rates

100
Which energy system produces the greatest amount of ATP, but takes the longest to activate?

Aerobic system

200

What is the term that describes how a muscel fiber length effects that amount of force that muscle can produce?

Length tension relationship

200

If someone is doing a program that calls for 4 sets, 15 reps, 65% 1 RM, wtih 30 - 60 seconds of rest, they would be training for what?

Local muscle endurance

200
Change of direction is a part of agility, but agility is not a part change of direction, why is this?

Change of direction by iteslf does not include any type of reactionary stimulus

200

What is the lactate threshold?

The point at which aerobic glycolysis can no longer meet the ATP needs, and anaerobic metabolism takes over

300

This type of muscle fiber can produce the highest amount of force, most amount of power, but has the lowest amount of fatigue resistance

Type IIx 

300

Progress the following scheme for someone who is training for strength.
3 sets, 3 reps, @ 85% 1 RM, 3 minute rest.
Pick the only 1 thing to progress, that is most relevant/important. 

3 sets, 3 reps, > 85% 1RM, 3 minute rest, 

300

What should you considered when trying to gauge the intensity of plyometric programs/exercises?

Points of contact, speed, height of drill, body weight 

300

Pyruvate must be converted into what prior to entering mitochondira and the krebs cycle

Acetyl-CoA

400
Muscle contraction will continue as long as these 3 things are present

ATP, electrical singal/action potential, available calcium ions 

400

Write a workout that follows the correct order of exercise for a given workout

Broad jumps (power/plyometric/speed/agility)
Trap bar deadlift (main lift)
Bulgarian split (accessory/assistance lift)
Hamstring curls (accessory/assistance lift)
Planks (core)
Bike intervals (conditioning/energy systems)

400

In what phase of the stretch shortening cycle is the energy stored within the musculotendinous unit?

Eccentric phase

400

What is the differnce between fast and slow glycolysis?

Fast glycolysis is anaerboic shorter duration, higher intensity, produces lactate
Slow glycolysis is aerobic, longer duration, lower intensity, produces pyruvate
