When an athlete attempts to do more training than they are physically and/or mentally able to tolerate.
What is overtraining?
100
Long, slow distance training such as running, swimming or cycling.
What is continuous training?
100
This gland helps regulate body temperature.
What is the hypothalamus?
100
ROM.
What is range of motion?
100
This is the only symptom of OTS that ALL cases have had in common.
What is sudden decrease in performance?
200
These are the 3 stages in Periodization.
What are Transition (post season), Preparation (pre season), and Competition?
200
Swedish term meaning 'speed play'.
What is Fartlek?
200
This is the transfer of heat energy (waves) sent from one object and absorbed by another.
What is radiation?
200
A type of stretching that involves movement within a normal ROM, often used in warm-up routines. Examples include torso twists and arm circling.
What is dynamic flexibility training?
200
Microcycles describe when exercise programs are broken down by this time increment.
What are week to week (daily descriptions of exercise)?
300
Transient overtraining.
What is Overreaching?
300
Training that involves periods of high intensity work interspersed with periods of recovery.
What is interval training?
300
These are 3 of the 5 variables that makes some individuals more heat intolerant than others during exercise.
What are (name 3 of the 5): Lack of acclimatization, low fitness, age, dehydration, and large body mass.
300
A static stretch followed by an isometric contraction of the muscle for 6-10 seconds against a resistance, which is often provided by a partner.
What is PNF stretching?
300
'Maintain' is associated to this season of periodization.
What is competition?
400
Periodized training seasons should be further broken down into these to ensure Specificity of training to the athlete.
What are Macrocycles, Mesocycles and Microcycles?
400
Exercises that produce a stretching of a muscle group undergoing an eccentric contraction, followed by a rapid concentric contraction of the same muscle group.
What are plyometrics?
400
These are the 3 largest physical influences on an individuals ability to tolerate cold exposure.
What are body size (ratio of skin surface to body volume), body composition (more muscle = more shivering capacity), and training status.
400
Training that is achieved by the athlete moving slowly and steadily into a position beyond the point of resistance in order to stretch the muscle. The stretch position is then held for 10-30 seconds.
What is static flexibility training?
400
This is what is meant by the term "syndrome of exclusion".
What is hoe OTS is diagnosed only when all other possible causes of an athlete's symptoms have been ruled out?
500
These are 5 of the 7 symptoms of OTS that we specifically identified in class.
What are chronic muscle soreness, decreased appetite, fatigue, sleep disturbances, reduced immune function (upper respiratory tract infections), increased resting HR, sudden decrease in performance?
500
These are the 8 types of exercise training we need to know for our IB SEHS OPT A Exam!
What are Continuous, Cross, Fartlek, Flexibility, Circuit, Plyometric, Interval, Strength/Resistance?
500
This is the term for increased vasoconstriction to enhance heat conservation.
What is insulative acclimatization?
500
This type of stretching involves using momentum to force muscles up to and past their normal range of motion. They typically involve swinging or bouncing movements and are NOT recommended as a safe way of improving flexibility.
What is ballistic flexibility training?
500
The training season also known as the 'building' season is broken down into these 2 distinct phases.
What are general preparatory phase and specific preparatory phase?
