EXSC 508 CH 2 QUIZ WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS
________ refers to what an athlete has done (e.g., distance and speed of running,
kilograms lifted), whereas ________ refers to how the athlete has responded (either
physiologically or perceptually). - ANSWER-External training load; internal training load
Which of the following is not a potential limitation to the frequent use of tests to assess
specific fitness qualities? - ANSWER-Frequent testing overcomes potential learning
effects
Invisible monitoring is - ANSWER-the assessment of fatigue via protocols that occur
within the normal training and competition process
A period of deliberately planned intensified training leading to high fatigue, a temporary
performance decline, and subsequent supercompensation is known as - ANSWER-
functional overreaching
A condition where an athlete has no impairment of physical performance, no mental
fatigue, and no excessive psychological distress is sometimes referred to as -
ANSWER-readiness
The use of total repetitions (number of sets multiplied by the number of repetitions) as a
representation of external load in resistance training - ANSWER-fails to account for the
intensity of each set and the displacement of each repetition
Dr. Hans Selye's framework for the interaction between stress, fatigue, and adaptation
is known as the - ANSWER-general adaptation syndrome
_________ is one of the most frequently studied performance tasks used to assess the
response to training and the presence of neuromuscular fatigue. - ANSWER-The
countermovement jump (CMJ)
Choose the correct order of events concerning biological adaptation. - ANSWER-
disruption of homeostasis, transient performance reduction, supercompensation
Athlete monitoring allows practitioners to better understand the complex relationships
between - ANSWER-training, injury, illness, and performance outcomes
