2 strength test approaches to determine if gender musclular differences exist

1. Assess absolute strength (total force exerted). 2. Assess relative strength (force exerted related to body mass, fat-free body mass [FFM], or muscle cross-sectional area

Three approaches to apply muscle overload in resistance training:

1. Increase load or resistance 2. Increase number of repetitions 3. Increase speed of muscle action

4 muscle fiber changes during muscle hypertrophy

1. Increased amounts of contractile proteins (actin and myosin) 2. Increased number and size of myofibrils per muscl fibe 3. Increased amounts of connective, tendinous, and ligamentous tissues 4. Increased quantity of enzymes and stored nutrients

6 popular methods of resistance training systems

1. Isometric training 2. DCER training 3. Variable resistance training 4. Isokinetic training 5. Plyometric training 6. Body weight-loaded training

delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) occurs from these factors

1. Minute tears in muscle tissue or damage to its contractile components with accompanying release of creatine kinase, myoglobin, and troponin I (the muscle-specific marker of muscle fiber damag 2. Osmotic pressure changes that cause fluid retentio in the surrounding tissues 3. Muscle spasms 4. Overstretching and perhaps tearing of portions of the muscle's connective tissue harness 5. Acute inflammatio 6. Alteration in the cells' mechanism for calcium regulation 7. Combination of the above factors

6 general objectives for resistance training

1. Weight lifting and power lifting competition (who is strongest?) 2. Body building (maximize muscular development for aesthetic goals) 3. General strength training (fitness and healt enhancement) 4. Physical therapy (rehabilitation from injury or disease) 5. Sport-specific resistance training (maximize spor performance) 6. Muscle physiology (understanding structure and function)

General recommendations for beginning a resistance training program

1. avoid max lifts 2. do lighter reps, more reps at the start 3. decrease to 6-8 reps after several weeks and marked improvement 4. add load as target reps are reached 5. always go from larger to smaller muscles (from start to finish)

7 muscle strength test considerations:

1. standardized instruction 2. uniform warm-up intensity/duration 3. provide adequate practice 4. ensure consistency of the exercise 5. predetermine the amount of repetitions 6. select tests with high reproducability 7. recognize body type differences when assessing scores

NSCA recommends having the ability to lift ___ times body weight prior to performing lower body plyometric exercise

PRE works in this way:

3 sets, 10 reps, increase the load as training continues and improves

If an athlete can't do a 1RM, a 5RM and 10RM may be performed instead. What % of the 1RM are the resistances at each?

5RM = 90% of 1RM 10RM = 78% of 1RM

Minimal intensity for muscular overload occurs between __% and __% of 1-RM.

60% and 70%

Moving a constant weight concentrically and eccentrically is termed this:

Dynamic constant external resistance (DCER)

Fast twitch are type I or type II fibers?

II !!!

Which should be engaged first? Large or small muscles? Single or multi-joint exercise? Higher or lower intensity exercise?

Large, multi, higher

Formula for power

Power = Force x (Distance/Time), or Force x Velocity

Goal of the competition phase of periodization

Selective strength development is emphasized with low-volume, high-intensity workouts (3-5 sets; 2-4 reps at 90%-95% 1-RM) plus short periods of interval training that emphasize sport-specific exercises

Recommendations for %1RM based on training goal:

TRAINING LOAD GOAL GOAL: (% 1-RM): REPETITIONS Strength: 85: 6 High power: 80-90: 1-2 Low power: 75-85: 3-5 Hypertrophy: 67-85: 6-12 Endurance < 67 12

Equations for predicting 1RM using 7-10RM

Untrained: 1-RM (kg) = 1.554 x 7-10RM weight (kg) - 5.181 Trained: 1-RM (kg) = 1.172 x 7-10RM weight (kg) + 7.704

Main causes of LBP syndrome:

ab weakness, lumbar weakness, L-spine instability, poor back/leg joint flexibility

ballistic resistance training is defined as this:

Relative strength is computed by dividing strength score by one of these three variables:

body mass, fat-free body mass (FFM) or MCSA

3 types of muscle action:

stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) performed in plyometrics aims to do what?

enhance the final push-off phase and produce a more powerful subsequent movement,utilizing a muscles' natural recoil and stretch reflex

There is an inherent (equality, inequality) in the trainability of men and women

equality

t/f: 80% maximum effort is required to get most benefit out of isometric training

f, 100%

t/f: 3RM / body weight = relative muscular strength for a given activity

three factors of muscle strength capacity

muscle cross-section, fiber type, and mechanical arrangement of bone and muscle

Muscle growth depends on these two factors

muscle fiber type activation and their recruitment pattern

Muscles do this during eccentric action

muscle fibers lengthen as a result of an external force on muscle exceeding force of the muscle (aka plyometrics)

Muscles do this during concentric action

muscle fibers shorten

muscles do this during isometric action

muscles generates a considerable force against a resistance, but despite maximum effort are unable to overcome the external resistence

These cell types proliferate and differentiate in muscle fiber under long-term training stress to form new fiber types

myogenic stem cells (satellite cells)

(neural, muscular) changes predominate in the early training stages

neural

(Strong, No) correlation exists between plasma testosterone levels and body composition and muscular strength in men and women.

no

Periodization fights this:

overtraining (staleness)

ligament and tendon strength generally (lag behind, parallel) the rate of muscle fiber adaptation

4 phases of periodization:

This practical application of the overload principle forms the basis for most popular resistance training programs

progressive resistance exercise (PRE)
