Steps that contribute to the energy system of anaerobic metabolism.
What is the body turns to stored glycogen as an energy source.
What is ATP is rapidly metabolized to meet energy needs.
Which of the following statements about cardiorespiratory endurance is correct?
What is "The greater the percentage of maximum aerobic capacity required during an activity, the less time the activity may be performed."
What term is best identified with enlargement of a muscle caused by an increase in the size of its cells?
What is "Hypertrophy."
How does an isometric muscular contraction occur?
What is "The muscle contracts to increase tension but there is no change in the length of the muscle."
How is the heart able to adapt to increased demands during exercise?
What is "Cardiac output increases as aerobic capacity increases."
Which of the following activities is an example of interval training?
What is "Sprinting the straight-aways and jogging the curves of a track."
Which of the following principles of conditioning allows the program designer to address group needs, rather than individual needs?
What is Consistency.
What determines the tension that can be generated when referring to muscular strength?
What is "Muscle length."
When using continuous training as a technique to improve cardiorespiratory endurance, what statement is incorrect?
