Cardiovascular Fitness Definition - correct answer✔✔- Aerobic exercise = vigorous exercise ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




that results in oxygen consumption (from 50-80% max) and HR (from 60-90% max)
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




maintains this level for at least 15-20 minutes ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




- Aerobic exercises refers to cyclic movements caused by contraction of large muscle masses
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




relying on aerobic energy pathways
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




Target HR Equation - correct answer✔✔220 beats/min - 20 (age) = 200 - 60 (estimated max
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




heart rate) - 60 (resting heart rate) = 140
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




x 0.75 (for heart rate range from 0.6 to 0.9) + 60 (resting heart rate) = 185 (target heart rate)
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

acquired by walking upright in a straight position ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




- Williams states that normal posture is with knees bent and torso slightly bent foward
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




- All activities should be geared to reducing lumbar lordosis
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




McKenzie approach - correct answer✔✔- Spinal assessment and therapy based on behavior ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




of pain and mechanical response to dynamic and static loading
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




Pain Syndromes - correct answer✔✔- Postural...end range stress of normal structures
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




- Dysfunction...end range stress leading to contracted or adherent structures
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




- Derangement...anatomical disruption or displacement of structure "herniated disc"
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




Plyometrics - correct answer✔✔Based on the concept of power ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

,* Force x Speed = Power
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




- Any exercise which a muscle is contracted eccentrically then immediately concentrically
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




- Example is a push-up with a clap in between
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




Plyoemetrics - Exercise technique - correct answer✔✔Exercises that enable a muscle to ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




reach maximal force in the shortest time
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




Movements

||\\//||




- Hops
||\\//||




- Bounds
||\\//||




- Box Drills

- Depth Jumps
||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




3 phases of SSC
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




foot is free to move. These exercises are typically non-weight bearing, with the movement
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




occurring at the elbow or knee joint. If there is any weight applied it is applied to the distal ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




portion of the limb. ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

1. Bench press
||\\//|| ||\\//||




2. Biceps curle
||\\//|| ||\\//||




3. Leg extensions
||\\//|| ||\\//||




4. Straight leg raises
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




Closed Chain Exercises - correct answer✔✔Exercises performed where the hand or foot is
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




fixed and cannot move. The hand/foot remains in constant contact with the surface, usually
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




the ground or the base of a machine. These exercises are typically weight bearing exercises,
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||

2. Handstand pushups
||\\//|| ||\\//||




3. Pull ups||\\//|| ||\\//||




4. Squats ||\\//||




5. Lunges ||\\//||




Relationship between external demand and functional capacity - correct answer✔✔The ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




great external demand (load) -> the greater chance of injury
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||




The more functional capacity -> the her trained and less of injury
||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//|| ||\\//||
