Exam 13: Program Design

The best measure/estimate of resistance training volume is _________.

An estimate of the amount of work accomplished is the:

What are the possible consequences of overreaching?

Though ___________________is a key component of a periodized training program, it should never be applied randomly or excessively.

________________ is an indicator of intensity because it is easy to implement and track over months/years.

Well-designed training programs move from more specific to more variation as the athlete gets closer to season.

Which of the following types of resistance training would most likely have the greatest impact on body composition?

The key to inducing skeletal muscle hypertrophy is:

Frequency of training is the number of training days per week.

Decreasing the difficulty level of an exercise based on individual needs is known as:

What are the factors that affect training intensity?

How is the balance between specificity and variation attained throughout the training cycle?

How can the goals of training best be met?

Relative intensity is:

Younger athletes should focus on variation and not be over-reliant on specificity.

During exercise, the rate at which energy is expended is most related to ________.

Specificity deals with:

The period of time that energy is being conserved in order to allow for ATP to be readily available for the next set and for the clearing of other metabolic substrates that can hinder performance is known as the:

The SAID principle stands for: __________ adaptations to imposed demands.

The training stimulus that exceeds habitual training ability and when applied in appropriate doses, induces short-term fatigue, but eventually enhances performance is:
