Across
  1. 3. the systematic, gradual increase of stress placed upon the musculoskeletal system during training to continually improve strength
  2. 4. a group of consecutive repetitions (reps) of an exercise followed by a rest period
  3. 6. strength training technique where two different exercises are performed back-to-back without rest, increasing workout efficiency
  4. 8. training the muscles in your pelvis, lower back, hips, and abdomen to work in harmony
  5. 10. type of muscle action where the muscle lengthens while under tension because the external resistance exceeds the force produced by the muscle
  6. 14. the designated recovery time between sets or exercises in a training session
  7. 15. the ability of a muscle or muscle group to exert force repeatedly
  8. 17. a form of exercise using external resistance—weights, bands, or body weight
  9. 18. the maximum amount of weight you can lift for a single, full-range repetition of a specific exercise
  10. 19. high-intensity, time-efficient workout that combines strength and cardio by alternating between exercises for different muscle groups with little to no rest
  11. 20. strength training equipment that use gravity and simple mechanics, such as cables or weight stacks
Down
  1. 1. strength training methods using an individual's weight to provide resistance against gravity
  2. 2. static strength training moves where muscles contract without changing length or moving joints
  3. 5. the number of times a specific exercise movement is performed within a set
  4. 7. a type of muscle activation where the muscle develops active tension and shortens to move a load
  5. 9. the wasting, thinning, or loss of muscle tissue or organs, often causing weakness and reduced mobility
  6. 11. dynamic movements that contract and shorten muscles against a constant load through a full range of motion
  7. 12. the maximum force a muscle or muscle group can exert in a single, all-out effort
  8. 13. increase in skeletal muscle size and cross-sectional area, driven by consistent resistance training
  9. 16. a weight used in weightlifting that is not attached to an apparatus
