Periodization
This periodization phase helps athletes build a fitness base before the start of a competitive season.
What is the preseason phase?
This domain of fitness measures the ability of muscles to work over an extended period without fatigue.
What is muscular endurance?
his type of stretching involves holding a position to lengthen the muscle slowly.
What is static stretching?
This principle of training states that the body must be challenged beyond its current level to improve.
What is the overload principle?
This routine, performed before exercise, helps reduce injury risk by increasing blood flow and muscle temperature.
What is a warm-up?
This phase focuses on maintaining performance and fitness levels during competitions.
What is the in-season phase?
Which domain involves the ability to move a joint through a full range of motion?
What is flexibility?
This technique combines full movement and controlled stretching, often used before sports
What is dynamic stretching?
This principle explains how the body adapts specifically to the types of stress placed on it.
What is the SAID Principle (Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands)?
This routine, done after a workout, helps the body gradually return to its resting state.
What is a cool-down?
During this phase, athletes focus on rest and recovery while engaging in lower-intensity training.
What is the off-season phase?
This domain refers to the efficiency of the heart and lungs during prolonged activity.
What is cardiorespiratory endurance?
A stretching technique involving bouncing movements to increase muscle flexibility
What is ballistic stretching?
The overload principle is essential to prevent this outcome, which can result from undertraining.
What is loss of muscle strength?
How long should the warm up typically last?
a. 1-5 minutes
b. 5-15 minutes
c. 20-30 minutes
d. 30-45 minutes
B-5-15 minutes
Name the three main phases of periodization in order.
What are preseason, in-season, and offseason(postseason)?
This domain includes skills such as coordination, reaction time, and agility.
What is neuromuscular control?
This stretching method combines contractions and stretches and is often done with a partner.
What is proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF)?
True or False: The stress applied during training should always be as high as possible to ensure muscle growth.
What is False (Overload should be balanced to avoid injury).
A cool-down period is especially important for preventing this uncomfortable condition in the muscles.
What is muscle stiffness?
Periodization is structured to help prevent these types of injuries, which can result from repetitive stress over time.
What are chronic injuries?
This domain of fitness measures the ratio of fat to lean muscle in the body.
What is body composition?
Which stretching technique is commonly used by athletes to increase flexibility and involves repetitive contractions of the agonist muscle?
What is ballistic stretching?
What is the name for when a muscle contracts to perform a movement?
What is agonist?
True or False: A proper warm-up can improve both flexibility and neuromuscular control, aiding in injury prevention.
