liability insurance

-A contractual promise by which the insurer promises to defend and indemnify the insured, up to the defined limits of liability, from certain defined liability risks at the insurer's cost in exchange for payment of a premium. -Strength and conditioning professionals should consult their human resource manager, A legal consultant, and Professional organization (e.g., NSCA)

first transition period

-A linkage between the preparatory and competitive periods. -Classically the resistance training in this period focuses on the elevation of strength and its translation to power development. -strength/power phase low to very high loads 30-95% 1RM depending on exercise and low volumes 2-5 sets 2-5 reps

spring mass model

-A mathematical model that depicts sprinting as a type of human locomotion in which the displacement of a body mass is the aftereffect from energy produced and is delivered through the collective coiling and extension of spring-like actions within muscle architecture

exercise economy

-A measure of the energy cost of activity at a given exercise velocity -An improvement in exercise economy can enhance maximal aerobic power (VO2max) and lactate threshold

electrical service

-A strength and conditioning facility typically requires more outlets than most buildings do. -Some of these outlets may require higher voltage for more powerful equipment, such as stair climbers, elliptical machines, and treadmills.

sports medicine team members

-All members of the sports medicine team are responsible for educating coaches and athletes regarding injury risks, precautions, and treatments. -The sports medicine team also works to prevent injuries and rehabilitate injured athletes. -Several different professionals play important roles in assisting an injured athlete's return, so effective communication is necessary.

stimulus fatigue recovery adaptation theory

-An extension of the GAS suggesting that training stimuli produce a general response. -The greater the overall magnitude of a workload, the more fatigue accumulates and the longer the delay before complete recovery so that adaptation can occur.

maximal aerobic capacity

-As the duration of an aerobic endurance event increases, so does the proportion of the total energy that must be met by aerobic metabolism. -There is a high correlation between VO2max and performance in aerobic endurance events.

second transition period (active rest)

-Between the competitive season and the next macrocycle's preparatory period is the second transition period. -The second transition (active rest, or restoration) provides a period of time in which athletes can rehabilitate injuries and refresh both physically and mentally before beginning a new annual training plan or macrocycle.

aerobic area

-Cardiorespiratory machines should be in their own section. -They should be lined up and organized such that the treadmills, elliptical machines, stair machines, and bikes are grouped together.

detraining

-Detraining occurs when the athlete reduces the training duration or intensity or stops training altogether due to a break in the training program, injury, or illness. -In the absence of an appropriate training stimulus, the athlete experiences a loss of the physiological adaptations brought about by training.

other considerations

-Drinking fountains should be located away from the training area. -Having a shower located somewhere in the building helps to maintain hygiene to prevent the spread of infections and disease.

equipment placement

-Equipment should be grouped in sections such as stretching and warm-up area, agility and plyometrics, free weights, aerobic area, and resistance machines. -Free weights and racks should be organized along the wall, with walkways between the free weights and machines. This allows for improved flow through the weight room, preventing congestion and maximizing space for more use. -Cardiorespiratory machines should be in their own section and organized into groups (treadmills, elliptical machines, and so on) -Barbells and dumbbells should have a minimum of 36 inches (91 cm) of space between them to allow for movement between racks without danger to the lifters and spotters.

fitness fatigue paradigm

-Every training bout creates both fitness and fatigue, which summate to create preparedness. -High training loads result in both elevated fatigue and fitness levels. -Low training loads result in minimal fitness or fatigue. -Fatigue dissipates faster than fitness and therefore allows for elevated preparedness with use of appropriate training strategies.

interval training

-Exercise at an intensity close to VO2max for intervals of 3 to 5 minutes. Work:rest ratio should be 1:1. -This allows athletes to train at intensities close to VO2max for a greater amount of time. -It increases VO2max and enhances anaerobic metabolism. -Interval training should be used sparingly, and only when training athletes with a firm aerobic endurance training base.

preoperation phase

design phase

-In the design phase the committee's ideas come together with regard to the facility's structure and design elements. -It is extremely important to plan around the flow of the facility while adhering to all relevant regulations and codes.

nervous system

-Increases in neural drive, which are indicative of an increase in the rate at which action potentials occur, are related to increases in both muscular force production and the rate of force production. -Taken together, increases in neural drive may contribute to increases in the athlete's RFD and impulse generation.

pace/tempo training

-Intensity at or slightly above competition intensity, corresponding to the lactate threshold: Steady pace/tempo training: 20 to 30 minutes of continuous training at the lactate threshold Intermittent pace/tempo training: series of shorter intervals with brief recovery periods -Objectives: Develop a sense of race pace and enhance the body's ability to sustain exercise at that pace Improve running economy and increase lactate threshold

exercise progression

-Progression of an aerobic endurance program involves increasing the frequency, intensity, and duration. -Frequency, intensity, or duration should not increase by more than 10% each week. -When it is not feasible to increase frequency or duration, progression can occur with intensity manipulation. -Progression of intensity should be monitored to prevent overtraining.

roles within the emergency team

-Provide immediate care of the athletes, as time is the most critical factor in emergency situations. -Emergency equipment retrieval; users of the facility should be made aware of the types and locations of emergency equipment before participation. -Activation of the emergency medical system (EMS); establish a method for a direct line of communication in cases in which emergency transportation is not already on-site. -The individual making the call should have been familiarized with the facility location during the orientation meeting.

resistance training

-Several programs have been developed to assist with the design of resistance training programs for injured athletes, including the De Lorme and Oxford programs and Knight's DAPRE program. -DAPRE allows more manipulation of intensity and volume. -The demands of the athlete's sport determine the training goal, which should dictate the design of the resistance training program during the remodeling phase.

running speed

-Sprinting is a series of coupled flight and support phases, known as strides, orchestrated in an attempt to displace the athlete's body down the track at maximal acceleration or velocity, usually for brief distances. -sprint speed is determined by athlete's stride length and stride rate

communication

-Strength and conditioning professionals must understand the following: The diagnosis of the injury Indications—forms of treatment required Contraindications—activity or practice prohibited due to the injury -They must also inform the rest of the sports medicine team about the exercises performed by the athlete and the athlete's response to the exercise.

tapering

-Tapering is the systematic reduction of training duration and intensity combined with an increased emphasis on technique work and nutritional intervention. -The objective of tapering the training regimen is to attain peak performance at the time of competition.

ceiling height

-The ceiling should be high enough for jumping or explosive activities. This includes the athlete's height plus the space required for box jumps, vertical jumps, and Olympic lifting exercises. -A recommended height is 12 to 14 feet (3.66 m to 4.27 m), which should give enough clearance to allow people to perform these activities comfortably

circuit training area

-The circuit training machines should be placed at least 24 inches (60 cm) and preferably 36 inches (90 cm) apart in order to provide adequate walking space and some extra space for safety, called a safety cushion.
