Terms in this set (305)



The three pillars of the scientist coach 1. Mechanist understanding
2. Measurement literacy
3. strategic judgement


Does load or imposed stress determine adaptation, Technique -> joint movement -> force vectors -> adaptations.
and if so why ? Load does not determine adaptation, imposed stress does. The same
external load can produce different joint moments, different joint
moments create different force vectors and different force vectors create
different adaptations.


How would a full ROM squat and a partial squat Full ROM squat - Hypertrophy, strength and length of muscle fascicles
differ in adaptation? Partial squat - muscle tendons stiffness and neuromuscular stimulation

Define specificity The degree to which training matches the mechanical and energetic
demands of performance.


Specificity should look to replace the ... of sports 1. Amplitude and direction
2. accentuated regions of force production
3. dynamics and effort
4. rate of timing and maximum force production
5. arrangement of muscular work


At what level does specific operate within ? It operates in the level of motor control


Describe differences between the benefits of free Free weights -> global muscle activation, greater ability to control
weights vs machine weights movement, greater increase in testosterone production, more freedom to

Define stability control Task specific control of the COM relative to base of support


Describe why core exercises for sprinters differ to should not be stagnant or prone holds but instead things that enhance
recreational athletes force transfer, improve intramuscular coordination and improve proximal-
distal sequencing


What are synergists ? (list examples) 1. Core stabilisers -> internal obliques
2. accessory muscles -> gluteus maximus, hamstrings
3. prime movers of flexion and extension -> recuts Abdominis


Is there such thing as "good posture" if so/not Posture is the relationship between segments that optimise force
describe why ? transmission for a given task. No such thing as good universal prorate as
it is entirely contextual. Good posture is efficient posture, so before
correcting posture think about task specificity and contact.
