Anna experienced many physiological adaptations during a one-year endurance training program. One adaptation she experienced was increased vasodilation in working muscles. What does that mean?

In working muscles, capillary diameter increases to allow for greater blood flow.

Type I muscle fibers have more mitochondria, allowing for more sustained energy production in endurance activities. (True or False)

True.

What happens to blood lactate levels as exercise intensity increases?

It increases

How does blood doping increase aerobic capacity?

It increases the amount of hemoglobin in the blood, improving its oxygen carrying capacity, and it increases blood volume.

Type II muscle fibers produce and use energy faster and are larger than type I muscle cells. (True or False)

True.

What does NEAT stand for?

Non-exercise activity thermogenesis

According to the FITT document for strength training posted to iLearn in Week 10, how many sets should a beginner perform during a weightlifting session?

One long set of 15 to 20 reps

Which of the following statements are true about overtraining syndrome?

Overtraining syndrome is a serious condition that sometimes requires 6 or more months of rest to recover from.

How does a person's initial fitness level influence improvements in aerobic capacity during a training program?

People with a high VO2Max before starting a training program will likely have a smaller improvement than a person who begins training with a low VO2Max.

Which variable is defined as the rate at which energy is transferred?

Power

Which principle of program design states that adaptations will match the mode and intensity of training? In other words, training should agree with the demands of a sport or fitness goals.

Principle of specificity

How does hydration impact competitive success in sports and training?

Proper hydration helps maintain an adequate blood volume and cardiac output during exercise.

What is one downside of using RPE to prescribe exercise intensity?

RPE is self reported, based on comfort, and varies widely from one individual to the next.

Jim has been dehydrated for 24 hours and just went for a long, high-intensity run on a hot day. What kind of physiological responses are likely occurring in his body?

Reduced blood volume due to a decrease in plasma volume, increased heart rate.

Which one of the following statements is true about satellite cells and human skeletal muscle fibers?

Satellite cells can increase the content of contractile proteins in the muscle cells and increase the number of nuclei in muscle cells.

Type II.

How does hypovolemia (dehydration) contribute to fatigue?

Ultimately, a reduced blood volume causes a reduction in cardiac output. A reduced CO limits the heart's ability to supply blood to working tissue.

If all other variables stayed the same, how would a reduced maximal stroke volume impact VO2Max?

VO2Max would increase

Which of the following statements are true about "RMR"? Select all that apply.

Which of the following statements are true about overtraining?

a. Symptoms of overtraining included persistent fatigue, reduced strength, reduced exercise revcovery, and decreased movitvation. b. Overtraining refers to performance decrements that can last for days or weeks. c. Motivated athletes and clients may have a higher risk of overtraining because they tend to ignore or 'power through' the signs and symptoms of overtraining.
