exercise - Answer- is a type of physical activity consisting of repetitive movement that is planned and structured to maintain or improve one or more
... [Show More] fitness components
physical fitness - Answer- is a specific set of health-related and skill-related traits associated with the ability to perform physical activity
cardiorespiratory endurance - Answer- is defined as the capacity of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems to deliver oxygen to the working muscles for sustained periods of energy production
cardiorespiratory fitness - Answer- describes the body's physical capacity to supply fuel and eliminate waste in order to perform large muscle movement over a prolonged period of time
muscular strength - Answer- is defined as the maximum force that can be exerted by a muscle or muscle group against a resistance in a single effort, referred to as one-repetition maximum
In the water, what is resistance influenced by? - Answer- buoyancy
muscle hypertrophy - Answer- is the term used to describe an increase in the size or girth of muscle tissue
Muscle atrophy - Answer- is the term used to describe the loss or wasting of muscle tissue through lack of use or disease
muscular endurance - Answer- is defined as the capacity of a muscle to exert force repeatedly or to hold a foxed or static contraction over time
flexibility - Answer- is defined as the ability of limbs to move at the joints through a complete range of motion (ROM)
Ballistic stretching - Answer- uses momentum of the body part to create the stretch
what does ballistic stretching activate? - Answer- muscle spindles
static stretching - Answer- involves slowly stretching to the point of tightness or mild discomfort and holding the elongated position for a period of time
rhythmic or dynamic stretching - Answer- involves moving body parts through the full range of motion in a slow, controlled manner
Body composition - Answer- body composition is defined as the body's relative percentage of fat as compared to lean tissues
neuromotor exercise - Answer- also referred to as functional fitness training, might include activities to target skill-related components of agility, balance, and coordination ; gait training; proprioceptive exercises; and multifaceted activities such as Tai Chi.
Agility - Answer- is the ability to change body positioning in space rapidly, quickly, and accurately
Balance - Answer- is the maintenance of equilibrium while stationary (static balance) or moving (dynamic balance)
coordination - Answer- integrates the senses (such as hearing and vision) with movements of the body to smoothly and accurately perform motor tasks
power - Answer- a function of strength and speed is the ability to transfer energy into force at a quick rate
reaction time - Answer- the amount of time elapsed between stimulation and acting on the stimulus
speed - Answer- is the rate at which a movement or activity can be performed
frequency - Answer- is how often you exercise or train
cardiorespiratory endurance (frequency) - Answer- moderate-intensity cardiovascular exercise at least five
days a week, or vigorous intensity training at least three days per week, or a weekly combination of three to five days blending moderate and vigorous activities
Muscular strength and endurance (frequency) - Answer- two or three days per week for each major muscle group. Additionally, at least 48 hours should separate the training sessions for each muscle group to allow adequate recovery and muscle development
flexibility (frequency) - Answer- at least two or three days per week is recommended, with the greatest benefits seen with daily stretching. Stretching is most effective when muscles are warm.
neuromotor exercise (frequency) - Answer- at least two to three days per week is recommended
intensity - Answer- is how hard you exercise
cardiorespiratory endurance (intensity) - Answer- moderate or vigorous-intensity exercise recommend for most adults, although reconditioned individuals may benefits from light to moderate intensity exercise
maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) - Answer- refers to the amount of oxygen an individual can use during maximal exercise
What are the common ways to measure intensity of aerobic exercise - Answer- -maximal heart rate (HRmax)
-heart rate reserve (HRR)
continuous training - Answer- resembles a bell curve. After warming up, participants maintain a relative constant level of training within the targeted
____________ is defined as the maximum force that can be exerted by a muscle or muscle group against a resistance - Answer- muscular strength
What type of stretching activates the muscle spindles, specialized receptors in the muscle length change and the speed of muscle length change? - Answer- ballistic stretching
Name the six skill-related components of fitness - Answer- 1. balance
2.coordination
3.speed
4.power
5.agility
6.reaction time
What is the difference between maximal heart rate and heart rate reserve? - Answer- maximal heart rate is the highest heart rate a person can achieve. It is measured with a max HR test or estimated with 220 minus your age. Heart rate reserve is your maximal heart rate minus your resting heart rate
How does compression lower your heart rate in water? - Answer- The water compresses all body systems, including the vascular system, causing a smaller venous load to the heart, reducing heart rate
What is the ACSM's (2018) recommended frequency for resistance training? - Answer- two or three days per week for each major mu [Show Less]
