ACSM More Practice
Components of physical fitness - ANS-cardiovascular, muscle endurance, muscle
strength, flexibility, body composition
cardiorespiratory - ANS-exercise increases the capacity of heart, lungs and blood
vessels to deliver oxygen; aerobic fitness
muscle endurance - ANS-ability to do repeated, sustained contractions; submaximal
muscle strength - ANS-1 rep max
flexibility - ANS-joint's range of motion
body composition - ANS-ratio of lean to fat mass
health related fitness - ANS-activity to improve quality of life and prevent disease
fitness conditioning - ANS-exercise to improve a specific component of fitness; based
on ACSM recommendations
Principle of adaptation - ANS-progressive overload; system responds by expanding it's
capacity
specificity of training - ANS-body adapts to specific stimulus
FITTE - ANS-frequency, intensity, time/duration, type/mode/kind, enjoyment
warm up - ANS-progressive physiological preparation, slow vasodilation
cool down - ANS-slow to promote venous return, prevent blood pooling, longer warm up
and cool down for seniors, HTN, pregnancy, diabetes
cardiovascular system - ANS-heart as pump, vessels as conduits
sino atrial node - ANS-SA node, pacemaker of the heart
sites for peripheral pulses - ANS-carotid, brachial, radial, femoral
