Term
Ability of a muscle and other soft tissue to yield to a stretch force.
Definition
Flexibility
Term
General term used to describe exercises performed by a person to passively or actively elongate soft tissues without the assistance of a therapist.
Definition
Flexibility Exercise
Term
Stretch force applied to soft tissues at the end of the ROM
Definition
Overpressure
Term
Any therapeutic maneuver designed to lengthen (elongate) pathologically shortened soft tissue structures, thereby increasing ROM.
Definition
Stretching
Term
Type of mobility exercise in which manual, mechanical or positional stretch is applied to soft tissues and in which the force is applied opposite to the direction of shortening
Definition
Stretching, Passive
Term
Principle underlying the development of a training program for a specific activity or skill and the primary energy systems involved during performance.
Definition
Specificity of Training
Term
Any form of active exercise in which a dynamic or static muscular contraction is resisted by an outside force.
Definition
Resistance Exercise
Term
Stressing the body or parts of the body to levels above that normally experienced.
Definition
Overload
Term
Exercise-induced muscle tenderness or stiffness that occurs 24 to 48 hours after vigorous exercise.
Definition
DOMS (Delayed-onset muscle soreness)
Term
The more similar the exercise to the actual functional activity, the greater the likelihood that there will be a positive transfer to the physical function.
Definition
Specificity of Exercise
Term
Exercises selected for the specific demands of the activity should maintain a balance of muscular strength across joints and between opposing muscle groups (train the agonist and antagonist muscle groups). Concept of push-pull training.
Definition
Muscle Balance
Term
These exercises recruit one or more large muscle areas, involve 2 or more primary joints (multi-joint exercises)
Definition
Primary Exercises
Term
This type of exercise usually recruit smaller muscle areas, involve only one primary joint (single joint).
Definition
Assistance Exercise
Term
Greatest amount of weight a muscle can move through the ROM a specific number of times in a load-resisting exercise routine.
Definition
RM (Repetition Maximum)
Term
? day loads are designed to be full repetition maximums, the greatest resistance that can be successfully lifted for the goal number of repetitions.
Definition
Heavy
Term
The loads for the other training days are intentionally reduced to provide recovery after the heavy day, while still maintaining sufficient training frequency and volume.
Definition
Term
? is a more powerful predictor of mortality among men than other established risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
Definition
Exercise capacity (research article)
Term
The intensity of exercise and the degree to which the muscle is overloaded is also dependent on (name them)
Definition
Volume, frequency, order of exercise or the length of rest intervals.
Term
Maximum amount of oxygen consumed per minute when the individual has reached maximum effort.
Definition
VO2 max
Term
Regarding Duration of Aerobic Exercise the book states a ? minute session is generally optimal at ?% max HR.
Definition
20 to 30 minutes/60 to 70% Max HR
Term
The American College of sports medicine recommends aerobic exercise ? days per week at ?% max HR for ? continuous or intermittent minutes.
Definition
3 to 5 days/65% to 90% max HR/20 to 60 minutes.
Term
? is the best measure of exercise intensity.
Definition
V02 max
Term
The Max HR is a function of ?
Definition
intensity.
Term
True/False: Aerobic capacity and HR are linearly related.
Definition
True
Term
Sum of aerobic ?,? and ? is aerobic training volume
Definition
intensity, duration, and frequency
Term
The sum of the aerobic intensity, duration, and frequency is the aerobic ?
Definition
training volume
Term
? is desirable for weight loss
Definition
Increased training volume
Term
Increased training volume is desirable for ?
Definition
weight loss
Term
? helps keep blood from pooling in lower extremities and facilitates venous return to heart
Definition
Cool downs
Term
Aerobic training effectiveness is more dependent upon ? than specific exercise mode
Definition
training volume
Term
Has an Increased risk of musculoskeletal injury compared to other exercise modes
Definition
Running
Term
This mode of exercise May irritate patellofemoral joint
Definition
Stair/stepping
Term
To achieve aerobic exercise benefits in cycling the desired pedal speed is relatively high (? RPM)
Definition
70-90 RPM
Term
This mode of exercise Places greater demands on aerobic energy system compared to other traditional forms of aerobic exercise
Definition
Rowing
Term
Potential injuries: rib stress fractures, spondylolysis may result in this mode of exercise.
Definition
Rowing
Term
In this mode of exercise Target heart rate levels should be lowered 10 beats/min because values are based on lower extremity graded exercise tests
Definition
Arm ergometry
Term
Is this Phase I or II: ACSM recommendations: Intensity of 55-90% of heart rate maximum or 40-80% of VO2R or heart rate reserve, duration of 20-60 minutes, and a frequency of 3-5 times per week
Definition
Phase II
Term
General rule of thumb - increase training volume by no more than ?% per week for average client
Definition
10%
Term
American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends using ratings of ? rather than heart rate to set intensity during pregnancy
Definition
perceived exertion
Term
For clients using insulin, dosage should be (? increased or decreased) before and after exercise
Definition
decreased
Term
If client has hypoglycemic event, rest and return to exercise only if glucose levels are above ? mg/dL
Definition
100
Term
Men over ? and women over ? years of age should have a complete cardiovascular stress test by physician prior to beginning an exercise program
Definition
45/55
Term
Difference between HR peak or HR max and HR after a period of time of recovery
Definition
HHR (Heart Rate Recovery)
Term
Evidence exists which suggests a direct relationship between strength and ?
Definition
physical function
Term
Recent research suggests lower extremity strength is associated with ? syndrome
Definition
metabolic
Term
Design of resistance training program should address patient's needs such as ? and ?
Definition
ADLs and Sports-specific movements
Term
? occurs when overload is decreased
Definition
Reversibility
Term
Evaluation to assess the needs of the patient include: name them
Definition
Movement, Physiological, injury
Term
(?Primary or Assistance exercises ) receive priority when selecting exercise because of the direct application to the patient’s need(s).
Definition
Primary
Term
A ? exercise is a structural exercise that is performed very quickly or explosively.
Definition
power
Term
A ? exercise involves, in most cases, external stabilization while performing the exercise at a slow speed with a high intensity (resistance)
Definition
strength
Term
True/False: The more similar the exercise is to the actual functional activity, the greater the likelihood that there will be a positive transfer to the physical function.
Definition
True
Term
True/False: Patients who train with maximum or near-maximum loads require more recovery time prior to the next training session.
Definition
True
Term
KNOW THIS: Brzycki 1-RM Prediction Equation
%1-RM ~ 102.78 – (R)(2.78)
Definition
Term
If the patient can perform two or more repetitions over their assigned repetition goal in the last set in two consecutive workouts for a certain exercise, weight may be added to that exercise for the next training session is known as the ? rule.
Definition
(2-for-2 rule)
