How does training affect performance?
Across
- 3. generally is the use of free weights to lengthen and then contract muscle fibres
- 5. apply resistance without changing muscle length
- 6. point at which lactic acid accumulates rapidly in the blood
- 8. the amount of air the lungs can hold
- 9. growth
- 10. refers to wasting or a decrease in size
- 12. process of breaking down glucose in the absence of oxygen to produce energy
- 14. number of heartbeats/minute while at rest
- 15. measures the energy value of food
- 18. referred to as the "detraining effect"
- 19. ability of working muscles to use the oxygen being delivered
- 20. in the absence of oxygen
- 21. ability of a muscle or muscle group to exert a force against a resistance
- 22. principle that implies that greatest gains occur when training resembles competition movement
Down
- 1. in the presence of oxygen
- 2. implies that gains in fitness occur when training load is increased as improvements occur
- 4. the lowest level at which we can train and still make some fitness gains
- 6. by product of the incomplete breakdown of CHO in the absence of oxygen
- 7. training that uses the aerobic energy system as the main source of energy
- 11. range through which joints and body parts are able to move
- 12. training that incorporates high intensity work with limited recovery
- 13. amount of blood ejected by the left ventricle during a contraction
- 16. glucose stored in the body. Used for fuel when blood glucose levels decline
- 17. process of restoring ATP to its former state
