What is meant by the training principle, Variety?
A training variety allows a person to stay on track, create progressive overload and ensure training meets the objectives.
Define training methods?
What does ATP stand for?
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
Which test best suits the fitness component of aerobic capacity?
- Beep Test
- Push Up Test
Beep Test
What heart rate would you expect if you were completing anaerobic training?
Maximal Heart rate for short intervals of times
What are the training principles?
Specificity, Frequency, Intensity, Duration, Progressive Overload, Individuality and Variety
What is fartlek training
High intensity work with a continuous and slow recovery before continuing high intensity work
What fuel do you need to continue to train at a low intensity for over an hour?
Protein, Carbohydrates and Fats
What are the 7 fitness components
Aerobic Fitness, Power, Strength, Speed, Agility, Muscular Endurance and Flexibility
Why would a marathon runner complete lactate threshold training?
To improve their top end pace without going over their threshold.
Explain how progressive overload can be used to improve strength in the gym?
By increasing weight, reps or sets this will create more load on the muscle then previous sessions making the muscle work harder and having to grow to cope with the extra strain.
What are the training methods called?
Fartlek, Resistance, Interval, Flexibility, Circuit and Continuous
What is the byproduct of the ATP-PC Cycle?
Adenosine Diphosphate
What is the difference between Power and Strength fitness components?
Power is the ability to exert maximum force whereas strength is the ability of a muscle to exert force by contracting against resistance.
What are % of aerobic and anaerobic training would a 1km runner use in a week?
80% Anaerobic
20% Aerobic
What does FITT stand for?
Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type
What is an example of continuous training for a marathon runner?
Long intensity long run for 3 hours
