ATP-CP System (Max effort - very short) Lactic Acid or Glycolytic System (Hard effort) Aerobic or Oxidative (Steady state effort) correct answers 3 energy systems Cardiorespiratory capacity Muscular capacity Flexibility correct answers three primary components of fitness • Decreased resting Heart Rate • Decreased risk of cardiovascular disease • Improved endurance • Increased stroke volume & cardiac output correct answers 4 benefits of training the cardivoscular system _____________ provides the ability to do physical work or perform a physical task. correct answers Energy A stable state where all systems are in balance and the demand for energy is met by available energy. correct answers homeostasis sarcomere correct answers The smallest functional (contracting) unit of a muscle isotonic concentric correct answers muscle contracts with enough force to shorten the muscle isotonic eccentric correct answers muscle lengthens as it exerts force isometric correct answers static contraction - muscle exerts force to counteract opposing force, no change in muscle length false, the first few weeks give gains due to neural adaptation correct answers true or false - the gains made over the first few weeks of muscle conditioning are due to increased muscle fibre size. resting length, potential cross bridges correct answers A muscle can generate its greatest force at its ________________ _____________ because it's myofilaments are in a position where their ______________ are exposed. faster, slower. So, always do the concentric part of the movement faster, but slow down the eccentric movement to get the muscle closer to exerting its maximal force. correct answers IN terms of the speed of movement, __________________ contractions exert maximal force in a concentric movement, whereas ____________ contractions exert more force in an eccentric movement.
