-mobility, stability, fundamental movement patterns

-speed, power, strength, endurance

-sport skill

(PPT Day 1)

 

Term
SAID Principle
Definition

specific adaptations to imposed demand

(PPT Day 1)

Term
acute program variables
Definition

specific "tools" to work with

(PPT Day 1)

Term
load
Definition

amount of weight lifted or resistance with which one exercises

(PPT Day 1)

Term
training volume
Definition

volume= sets (number) x repetitions (number) x resistance (weight)

(PPT Day 1)

Term
training frequency
Definition

number of training sessions perfromed during a specific period; is dependent on volume, intensity, exercise selection, level of conditioning and/or training status, recovery ability, nutritional intake, and training goals

(PPT Day 1)

Term
human movement
Definition

motions that the human movement system produces (kinematics) and the forces (kinetics) that act upon it

(PPT Day 2)

Term
agonists
Definition

muscles that act as prime movers

(PPT Day 2)

Term
antagonists
Definition

muscles that act in direct opposition to primer movers

(PPT Day 2)

Term
synergists
Definition

muscles that assist primer movers during fuctional movement patterns

(PPT Day 2)

Term
stabilizers
Definition

muscles that support or stabilize the body while the prime movers and the synergists perform the movement patterns

(PPT Day 2)

Term
sub-systems
Definition

deep longitudianl sub-system

posterior oblique sub-system

anterior oblique sub-system

lateral sub-system

(PPT Day 2)

Term
movement patterns
Definition

1. trunk flexion

2. trunk extension

3. trunk rotation

4. push patterns

5. pull patterns

6. squat patterns

7. gait patterns

(PPT Day 2)

Term
PAR-Q
Definition

physical activity readiness questionnaire

(NASM 4 - 103)

Term
concentric contraction
Definition

muscle-tendon unit is shortening while contracting

(Aaberg 14)

Term
eccentric contraction
Definition
muscle-tendon unit is producing just enough contractile force to control or slow joint motion while the muscle-tendon unit is lengthening
(Aaberg 14)
Term
isometric contraction
Definition

muscle-tendon unit is neighter shortening nor lengthening while still producing tension and a contractile force

(Aaberg 14)

Term
neutralizers
Definition

muscles that exert light forces to counteract an unwanted joint motion or force caused by the actions of other muscles

(Aaberg 15)

Term
4 steps of exercise selection
Definition

1. determining goals

2. targeting desired movement

3. targeting desired muscle groups

4. doing benefit-to-risk analysis

(Aaberg 19)

Term
performance based goals
Definition

involve the desire for enhancement of biomotor abilities, which are general adaptations or benefits the body can derive from training

(Aaberg 20)

Term
aesthetic-based goals
Definition

relate more to the physiological adaptations that can occur through exercise that affect a person's appearance

(Aaberg 20)

Term
needs analysis
Definition

should be performed to evaluate the needs of the athlete and the demands of the sport

(Chandler 1st - 153)

Term
overload
Definition

providing an appropriate stimulus for attaining a deisred level of physical, physiological, or performance adaptation

(Chandler 1st - 258)

Term
training intensity
Definition

the rate at which a training exercise or training session proceeds

(Chandler 1st - 258)

Term
relative intensity
Definition

percent of the one-repetition maximum

(Chandler 1st - 258)

Term
exercise intensity
Definition

actual power output of a movement

(Chandler 1st - 358)

Term
training density
Definition

the frequency of training per session, per day, per week, etc.

(Chandler 1st - 258)

Term
training volume
Definition

measure or estimate of the total work performed and is strongly related to total energy expenditure

(Chandler 1st - 258-259)

Term
volume load
Definition

best estimate of amount of work accomplished during training

(Chandler 1st - 259)

 

Term
variation
Definition

appropriate manipulation in training intensity, speed of movemetn, volume, and exercise selection

(Chandler 1st - 260)

Term
transfer-of-training effect
Definition

the degree to which a training exercise promotes adapation in performance

(Chandler 1st - 260)

Term
muscular strength
Definition

the ability of the neuromuscular system to generate force

(Chandler 1st - 278)

Term
progression
Definition

the act of moving forward or advancing toward a specific goal

(Chandler 1st - 284)

Term
progressive overload
Definition

gradual increase of stress placed on the body during resistance-exercise training

(Chandler 1st - 284)

Term
specificity of exercise and training
Definition

most important consideration in selecting both methods and modes for resistance training, especially if athletic performance enhancement is primary goal

(Chandler 2nd - 349)

Term
open kinetic chain exercise
Definition

exercise in which the distal end of the moving segments is free or not in contact with the ground or a fixed apparatus

(Chandler 2nd - 166)

 

Term
closed kinetic chain exercise
Definition

distal end of the moving segment is fixed or in contact with the ground or a fixed apparatus

Term
systematic variation/periodization
Definition

puposeful and planned alteration of acute program variables over time

(Chandler 2nd - 377)
