- 2. To improve a system an individual needs to engage in a training regimen that targets that system.
- 5. To improve a given system one needs to challenge it above the level it is accustomed to.
- 6. A guideline to prevent overtraining by limiting the rate of progression is called the __________________ rule.
- 8. A primary difference between training for muscular strength or muscular endurance is that strength training uses more weight, while endurance training uses more ________________.
- 10. One reason VO2 max improves is an increased extraction of O2 from the blood, called the ______________.
- 13. If the cause of fatigue is at the muscles, for example H+ ions interfering with calcium ions binding to troponin, this is called __________________ fatigue.
- 14. Prescribing the intensity of aerobic exercise using the individual’s reserve heart rate is also called the ___________________ method.
- 15. If an individual feels substantial soreness the day after a big workout, this is called ____________.

- 1. One of the reasons VO2 max improves with training is because of an improvement in this.
- 2. The recommendation for the general population trying to improve flexibility is to go into a stretch and hold it without moving for 30 seconds. This is called __________ stretching.
- 3. A common guideline for prescribing a training regimen.
- 4. The lower limit on the number of days the ACSM recommends an individual exercise to improve cardiorespiratory fitness.
- 7. If an individual is exerting very light force, they will largely recruit this type of muscle fiber
- 9. After experiencing overload for a period, the individual adapts and it is necessary to further increase the workload.
- 11. If an individual trains and improves a system, that system must continue to be utilized, or the gains will be lost.
- 12. Initial gains in strength with training will be due to this type of adaptation.
- 16. For long-term exercise, one of the primary factors leading to fatigue is their ____________ stores becoming depleted
- 17. The training plan undertaken should ideally keep the risk of injury low while maximizing the potential ____________.
