CH 20, L2: Progressive Adaptations from Resistance Training

Adaptations from resistance training:

Stabilization, muscular endurance, hypertrophy, strength, and power

Stabilization

The body's ability to provide optimal dynamic joint support to maintain correct posture.

(T/F) Stabilization requires high level of muscle endurance

True.

(T/F) Improper stabilization doesn't affect a muscle's force production.

False

Muscular endurance

The ability to produce and maintain force production for prolonged periods of time.

Muscular endurance helps increase ___ and ____ stabilization.

core, joint

Training for muscular endurance of the core focuses on the recruitment of type ___ muscle fibers

type I muscle fibers

Muscular Hypertrophy

Enlargement of skeletal muscle fibers.

Strength

The ability of the neuromuscular system to produce internal tension to overcome an external load.

Stregnth-focused resistance training is desgined to match the characteristics of type ___ muscle fibers

Type II

The majority of strength will occur when?

The first 12 weeks of resistance training.

Power

Tha ability of the neuromuscular system to produce the greatest possible force in the shortest time possible. (Force x Velocity of Work/ Time)
