Across
- 5. Alternating periods of high-intensity work with rest or low-intensity recovery, improving both aerobic and anaerobic fitness.
- 7. The ability of a muscle to perform repeated movements or hold a position for an extended period (e.g., planks, high-rep cycling).
- 8. The ability to change direction quickly and accurately.
- 11. The ability of the heart and lungs to supply oxygen to muscles during sustained activity (e.g., running, swimming).
- 13. Using resistance (dumbbells, machines, bands, body weight) to increase muscular strength, power, or endurance.
- 14. Using senses together with body parts during movement.
- 15. The combination of speed and strength, often producing explosive movements (e.g., jumping).
- 16. "Speed play" training that mixes continuous, moderate-intensity exercise with random bursts of high-intensity, such as sprinting or walking during a run.
- 17. A series of exercises performed in rotation, often with minimal rest between stations, improving both muscular endurance and cardiovascular fitness.
Down
- 1. Maintaining stability while stationary or moving.
- 2. The maximum amount of force a muscle can exert in a single effort (e.g., lifting a heavy suitcase).
- 3. Techniques like static (holding) or dynamic (moving) stretching to improve joint range of motion.
- 4. Short, intense bursts of activity (e.g., 30 seconds) followed by short recovery periods, optimized for fat loss and cardiovascular efficiency.
- 6. Explosive exercises like jumping, bounding, or throwing designed to increase power.
- 9. The range of motion around a joint, necessary for smooth, efficient movement and injury prevention.
- 10. The ability to move all or part of the body quickly.
- 12. Sustained, steady-state exercise without rest periods (e.g., jogging, swimming, cycling) used to build aerobic endurance.
