define muscle performance
capacity of a m to do work (force x distance)
factors that affect m performance
- neuro
- biomechanical
- cardiovascular
- respiratory
- cognitive
- emotional
3 key elements of m performance
strength, power, endurance
4 components of m performance
- strength
- functional strength
- power
- endurance
define strength
the greatest measurable force that is exerted by a m or m group to overcome resistance
during a single max effort
functional strength
, ability of the neuromuscular system to produce the appropriate amount of force, during
functional activites in a smooth and coordinated manner (ex: walking, stairs)
how do you calculate power?
work (force x distance) / time
3 things to consider when calaculating power
- rate of perfoming work
- anaerobic power
- aerobic power
What is anaerobic Power?
single burst of high-intensity activity (high jump)
What is aerobic power?
repeated bursts of less intense activity (climbing stairs)
power is important when what two things are goals?
intensity and speed
define endurance
ability to perform repetitive or sustained acitivities over a prolonged perior of time
(cardiopulm vs m endurance)
strength training uses muscle force to
raise, lower, or control heavy external loads for a low reps or over short period of time
What results do we get when we use muscle force against resistance?
- neural adaptations
- increase in muscle fiber size
- increase max force production
