Training Principles
100

Where does gas exchange occur within the lungs?

Alveoli

100

Describe tidal volume.

Normal relaxed inspiration and expiration volumes

100

First group to ALL successfully pat their head and rub their tummy wins the points.

TOUGH ONE

100
What type of training focuses on explosive extension of the hips, knees, and ankles?

Plyometrics

200

What percentage of oxygen is transported bound to hemoglobin?

98%

200

What percentage of atmospheric gas is composed of CO2?

0.03%

200

Why do aerobic athletes have lower resting heart rates?

Increased stroke volume leading to a lower HR to maintain cardiac output.

200

Draw AND explain the relationship between volume and intensity.

I'll draw it.

High volume (sets/reps) = low intensity (weight)

Low volume = high intensity

300

Describe the 2 pulmonary dangers of scuba diving.

Overexpansion injury: ascend without breathing out and lungs over expand

The bends: release nitrogen bubbles into the blood from ascending too quickly

300

What percentage of oxygen is extracted at the capillary during maximal exercise?

75%

300

Define afterload AND what occurs with a decreased afterload.

The pressure in the aorta that the heart has to pump against.

Decreased afterload = increased stroke volume

300

What exercise duration range would focus on the anerobic energy system?

30 sec - 2 minutes

400

Describe how pressure, volume, and the diaphragm changes during inspiration AND expiration.

Inspiration: Diaphragm contracts/descends, Pressure decreases, volume increases

Expiration:  Diaphragm relaxes/ascends, Pressure increases, volume decreases

400

Draw the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve AND label both axis

I'll draw it

400

What is the equation for mean arterial pressure (MAP)

MAP = CO x TPR

400

Choose any celebrity. Apply 3 of the principles of training to a single workout for them. Describe how they are used.

Specificity, Variation, Overload, Reversibility, Individuality
