ACSM Certified Exercise Physiologist
Domain Two
6 Motor skill related components - ANS-Agility
Speed
Balance
Coordination
Power
Reaction Time
Physiological adaptations to exercise - ANS-Neurological: smoother movements, more
control
Increased SV
Decreased HR
Increased VO2max
Increased venous return
Cardiac output - ANS-stroke volume X heart rate
Physiological changes during warmup - ANS-Raise muscle temp and body temp
Hormone changes (carbs and fats ready for use)
Mental preparation
Increased ROM
Increased vasodilation
Physiological changes during cooldown - ANS-Removes lactic acid
Prevents blood from pooling in legs
Lowers blood acidity
DOESNT REDUCE DOMS
Reversibility - ANS-Discontinue exercise: lose ability
Individuality - ANS-Different responses to training
Overload - ANS-Exercise beyond level at which normally accustomed
Creates gains
Specificity - ANS-Exercise is specific to what is involved:
, Muscle fibers
Energy system
Velocity of contraction
Type of contraction
Bursa - ANS-Fluid filled cavity countering friction at joint
Sprains - ANS-Twist of ligaments of joint (causes swelling)
Strains - ANS-Stretching or tearing of muscle or tendon
Lactate threshold - ANS-Point at which blood lactic acid rises systematically during
incremental exercise
Point at which your body produces it faster than it can get rid of it
Bursitis - ANS-Inflammation of a bursa
Anorexia - ANS-eating disorder
Adipocyte - ANS-Fat cells store lipids until use for ATP
Bariatrics - ANS-Branch of medicine specializes in obesity
Ergogenic aid - ANS-External, enhances sport performance
Fat-free mass - ANS-
Resting metabolism - ANS-Energy expenditure at rest
Direct calorimetry - ANS-Uses an enclosed chamber to determine amount of heat
produces by subject
Indirect calorimetry - ANS-Uses amount of O2 consumed and CO2 exhaled to
determine amount of heat produced by subject
Thermogenesis - ANS-Production of heat in the body
Energy systems - ANS-Anaerobic: ATP-PC, Glycolysis
Aerobic: Krebs and Electron Transport
