Basis for conditioning

Question 1

What is the focus of Advanced Conditioning Methodology?

Answer 1

how advanced conditioning methodology may be used to supplement a human with some kind of health fitness that needs to be improved

Question 2

What two aspects of movement does KIN 335 explore?

Answer 2

The course explores the kinetics of an exercise, looking into the forces controlling motion, and the kinematics of an exercise, describing the motion

Question 3

What is the primary way motion is described in this course?

Answer 3

Any description of motion in this course is about joint movement

Question 4

What are some aspects to consider when reviewing motion at joints for a program?

Answer 4

The program should consider the type of exercise, the number of exercises, and the amount of each exercise to be performed.

Question 5

How long does it take for adaptations to occur in the human body?

Answer 5

Adaptations in the human body can be seen after 4 to 6 weeks

Question 6

What must happen to a stimulus to continue to see adaptations?

Answer 6

The stimulus will have to be changed

Question 7

What does “training age” refer to, in the context of exercise?

Answer 7

the amount of time someone has been regulary involved in training programs and sports that build muscle health, basic movement skills and overall fitness

Question 8

What should occur as training age goes up?

Answer 8

As training age goes up, intensity matters more therefore intensity should increase

Question 9

What is considered a performance in the context of physical activity?

Answer 9

Any physical activity is considered a performance

Question 10

What is the concept of “periodization” in training?

Answer 10

Periodization is about putting things in the right order in a training program

Question 11

What is the goal of periodization in training?

Answer 11

Periodization ensures that the human is doing the appropriate activities, in the appropriate order

Question 12

What are the 4 ways the conditioning is achieved?

Answer 12

• PA
• nutrition
• ergogenic aids
• adjunctive modalities (massage, thermal etc.)

Question 13

What is exercise?

Answer 13

• activity requiring physical effort, carried out to sustain or improve health and fitness
• an activity carried out for a specific purpose
• generation of force by the activated muscles
• disruption of a homeostatic state

Question 14

Exercise is a type of _____ _____.

Answer 14

physical activity

Question 15

PA is an activity requiring _____ _____.

Answer 15

physical exertion

Question 16

What is the difference between PA and exercise?

Answer 16

• in PA: purpose may or may not be to sustain or improve health and/or fitness
• in exercise: specific purpose is to sustain or improve health and/or fitness

Question 17

What are the 5 types of exercise?

Answer 17

• locomotion
• activities of daily living
• occupation
• recreation/sport
• exercise

Question 18

Homeostasis:

Answer 18

• Le milieu interieur (Claude Bernard)
• regulation of an organism’s or cell’s internal environment
• maintain a condition of equilibrium regardless of changing external conditions

Question 19

Disruption of homeostasis:

Answer 19

external conditions exceed organism’s/cell’s ability to regulate internal environment

Question 20

How does a stimulus elicit adaptations?

Answer 20

• must be sufficient to disrupt homeostasis
• type of stimulus
• exercise volume and intensity

Question 21

FITT principle:

Answer 21

F: frequency
I: intensity (difficulty)
T: type
T: time (volume or amount)

Question 22

What is (Physical) training?

Answer 22

planned regimen of appropriate types of exercise, with sufficient volume, intensity and frequency to elicit change in an organism’s condition

Question 23

Training involves ____ and _____ of training.

Answer 23

modes and methods

Question 24

What is the modes of training:

Answer 24

exercise selection

Question 25

What is the method of training?

Answer 25

manipulation of volume, intensity and frequency

Question 26

What are the 3 training objectives?

Answer 26

* Training to improve health and wellness * To modify body composition/aesthetics * Training to improve physical fitness and performance

Question 27

What are the 4 steps to developing a training program?

Answer 27

* assessment and determination of needs and goals * ID of timeframe * planning training program (modes and methods) specific to needs and goals * monitoring training efficacy and modifying training program as necessary

Question 28

What is Performance & an example?

Answer 28

Performance is the action or process of performing a task or function. ◦ Example: sport performance, occupational performance, activities of daily living (rehabilitation; disease or dysfunction)
