Across
- 4. uses 6 to 10 strength exercises that are completed one after another.
- 6. a progressive overwork of muscles at a controlled, increased rate to achieve consistent gains in strength.
- 10. training activities that put an increased demand on the lungs, heart, and other body systems.
- 14. a form of dynamic exercise accomplished using a training partner.
Down
- 1. rhythmic, bouncing action that stretches the muscles a little further each time.
- 2. the process of muscle atrophy due to disuse, immobilization, or starvation.
- 3. the ability of particular muscle groups to respond to targeted training.
- 5. an activity in which a machine is used to control the speed of contraction within the muscle’s range of motion.
- 7. training that works muscle groups through their range of motion.
- 8. Decreases the chance of injury by addressing areas of concern or deficits identified before participation.
- 9. exercise that causes muscles to contract and shorten.
- 11. exercise that causes tension in the muscle to increase, but does not cause the muscle to shorten.
- 12. the systematic application of exercise stress sufficient to stimulate muscle fatigue.
- 13. gradual, slow stretching of the muscle through the entire range of motion, then holding the position for 20 to 30 seconds.
