The ability of a muscle to generate force against some resistance.
Strength
The ability to perform whole-body, large muscle activitities for extended periods of time without undue fatique.
Cardiorespiratory Endurance
Planning out a week's worth of training.
Microcycle
-100
-100
A muscle is placed on an eccentric stretch, followed by an explosive concentric contraction.
Plyometric
Strength plus speed equals...
Power
The objective of aerobic exercise is to elevate your heart rate to a specified rate and maintain it at that level during the entire workout.
Target Heart Rate
Planning out a few months of workouts.
Mesocycle
A slow, controlled sport-specific movement to warm up and stretch the muscles.
Dynamic Stretching
Low-intensity occlusion training for the limbs of the body.
Blood Flow Restriction
The ability to perform repetitive muscular contractions against some resistance for an extended period of time.
Endurance
It is best to take this heart rate measurement right when you wake up in the morning.
Resting Heart Rate
300
300
Passively stretching a given antagonist muscle by placing it in a maximal position of stretch and holding it for an extended period of time.
Static Stretching
A muscular contraction in which the length of the muscle is changing while the contraction is performed at a constant velocity.
Isokinetic
An increase in muscle size.
Hypertrophy
This measurement is used to calculate the upper and lower limits of the target heart rate range.
Heart Rate Reserve
Planning out 1-4 years of training.
Macrocycle
This type of stretching is characterized by stretching, contracting, relax & stretch again.
PNF Stretching
These type of contractions can be either concentric or eccentric muscle contractions.
Isotonic
A decrease in muscle size.
Atrophy
This equation 211 - (.64 X Age) measures your ...
Max Heart Rate
To promote peak performance and decrease overtraining, a year's worth of training is broken down into at least 3 training periods throughout the year.
Block Periodization
Involves a bouncing movement in which repetitive contractions of the agonist muscles are used to produce quick stretches of the antagonist muscles.
Ballistic Stretching
A muscle contracts to increase tension but there is no change in the length of the muscle
Isometric
