"primary" caused by normal aging/lower estrogen & progesterone- following
type 1 osteoporosis
menopause
type 2 osteoporosis "secondary" due to medical condition/alcohol abuse or smoking
Training Frequency The number of training sessions performed during a specified period (usually 1 week)
An individual's level of effort, compared with their maximal effort, which is usually
Training Intensity
expressed as a percentage.
Training Volume The sum of the (reps x sets) x resistance used.
Training Duration amount of time of a training session
Unloading phase The concentric phase
eccentric (stretch) contraction followed immediately by concentric (shortening)
stretch-shortening cycle
contraction
the transition period between the eccentric and concentric actions during
Amortization phase plyometrics; a crucial part of the stretch-shortening cycle that contributes to power
development
loading phase The eccentric phase of a reactive exercise
Rectus abdominis and hamstrings are thought to be tight causes LESSER lordotic
posterior pelvic tilt cause
curve to lumbar spine
Hip flexors and erector spinae are expected to be tight causes GREATER lumbar
anterior pelvic tilt cause
lordosis
PAR-Q reflects what three health indicators Current activity level, signs and symptoms of disease, desired exercise intensity
Men: moderate >0.96-1.
high>1
high risk waist to hip ratio
Women: moderate>0.81-.85
high >.86
Stages 3-5 (of the 5 stages/4 zones) are atheletes and advanced fitness enthusiasts who seek greater cardiorespiratory
most appropriate for conditioning (stages 1-2 are best for those seeking to improve health)
Muscle involved in shoulder Extension in Latissimus Dorsi, teres major and minor, posterior deltoid
pulling movements
What percentage of people 80%
experience low-back pain in their
lifetime
venous pooling accumulation of the blood in a part of the body
peripheral resistance the opposition that blood flow encounters in vessels away from the heart
the more the heart fills with blood during diastole, the greater the force of
Frank-Starling Law of the Heart
contraction during systole
forcible exhalation against a closed glottis, resulting in increased intrathoracic
Valsalva maneuver
pressure
Goal: build aerobic base & foundational fitness
Steady State
