Physiological Responses to training
100
What is the largest bone in the body and where is it located?
Femur
100
The exchange of gases occurs in the alveoli. True or False?
True
100
What test did you perform to measure muscular strength?
Hand-grip test
100
Define aerobic training
Exercise that requires the use of oxygen
100
Physiological responses occur because the body is becoming under stress. True or False?
True
200
Turning your wrist from palm facing downwards, to your palm facing upwards is an example of what joint action?
Supination
200
Define inspiration and expiration.
Inspiration: Breathing in Expiration: Breathing out
200
Differentiate between power and strength.
Power: Power is a combination of speed and strength Strength: Is the ability to move a certain amount of mass
200
What is the maximum heart rate of a 40 year old?
180 beats per minute. (220 - age = max HR)
200
Define the term 'ventilation rate'
Breathing in (inspiration) and breathing out (expiration)
300
Name the 3 types of muscle.
Skeletal: Attached to bones Cardiac: Muscles in the heart Smooth: In the walls of internal structures (stomach, blood vessels and intestines)
300
Which of the following is NOT a structure of the heart: aorta, right ventricle, left atrium, cuspid valve, superior vena cava.
cuspid valve
300
Name the missing skill-related component of physical fitness: - reaction time - balance - agility - speed - power
coordination
300
What does the FITT Principle stand for?
Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type
300
A trained athletes heart beats more times per minute than an untrained athlete during exercise because it is more efficient. True or False?
False - trained athletes heart beats less because it is more efficient
400
Differentiate between isotonic and isometric muscle contractions
Isotonic: Muscle shortens/lengthens during muscle contraction Isometric: Tension develops in the muscle but the muscle neither shortens or lengthens
400
What is the function of arteries, veins and capillaries.
Arteries: carry blood away from the heart to tissues Veins: carry blood from tissues back to the heart Capillaries: small networks of vessels through which nutrients are exchanged between blood and the cells of the body
400
Cardiorespiratory endurance uses the anaerobic energy system. True or False
False
400
Compare the importance of aerobic and anaerobic training for a soccer player
Aerobic: Exercise lasts for long periods so athletes need to be under strain for long periods of time Anaerobic: Athletes often require short, sharp bursts during play
400
Why does cardiac output and ventilation rate need to increase during exercise?
Ensure that working tissues are supplied with oxygen and nutrients, and to remove waste
500
For a bicep curl, name the agonist and antagonist muscles involved.
Agonist: Bicep brachii Antagonist: Tricep
500
What is the name of the device used to measure blood pressure?
Sphygmomanometer
500
Name 3 benefits of testing physical fitness
- evaluate progress - set realistic, achievable fitness goals - identify individual strength/weaknesses - motivate to improve results
500
Relate the FITT Principle to a sprinter's training session
Frequency: Performing anaerobic training 3-5 days a week Intensity: Working at submaximal level Type: Training in the anaerobic threshold Time: Working at intervals of no more then 10 seconds with sufficient rest
500
How is cardiac output calculated?
Cardiac output (Q) = heart rate (HR) x stroke volume (SV)
