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