Across
- 1. Works multiple exercises at a certain rep before moving to the next round at a lower or higher rep
- 7. Ability of particular muscle groups to respond to targeted training
- 13. A type of workout structure where an athlete completes a set of exercises for a specific amount of time
- 14. An activity that causes the muscle to contract and shorten
- 15. Preseason ___________ is a program beginning 6-8 weeks prior to sports participation that allows the body to gradually adapt to the demands about to be placed on it
- 18. The systematic application of exercise stress sufficient to stimulate muscle fatigue, but not so severe that breakdown and/or injury occur
- 19. A form of self-massage that uses various tools, such as foam rollers, massage balls, and even your own hands, to apply pressure to specific muscle groups and release tension in the fascia,
- 20. Trying to prevent injuries before they occur through a preventative management program
- 21. The process of muscle atrophy due to disuse, immobilization, or starvation; leads to decreased strength and muscle mass
- 23. Fibers in a motor unit that produces quick and forceful contractions; these fibers are easily fatigued
- 24. A gradual, slow stretching of the muscle through the entire range of motion, then holding the position for 20 to 30 seconds
- 26. A type of exercise that uses a machine to control the speed of contraction within the range of motion
- 28. An activity that causes tension in the muscle to increase, but does not cause the muscle to shorten
- 29. An increase in the size of muscle tissue
Down
- 2. Weakness & wasting away of muscle tissue
- 3. The process of restoring function through programmed exercise, to enable a return to competition
- 4. A combined relaxing and contracting of the muscles;
- 5. The systematic application of exercise stress sufficient to stimulate muscle fatigue, but not so severe that breakdown and/or injury occur
- 6. the muscle lengthens as the resistance becomes greater than the force the muscle is producing
- 8. The ability of a joint to move freely through the full range of motion
- 9. The muscle tension rises to meet the resistance then remains stable as the muscle shortens
- 10. The progressive overwork of muscles at a controlled, increased rate to achieve consistent gains in strength
- 11. When exercises mimic the desired movements of that activity as closely as possible
- 12. Moving the joints beyond the normal range of motion
- 16. A rhythmical, bouncing action that stretches the muscles a little further each time.
- 17. Fibers in a motor unit that require a long period of time to generate force; these fibers are relatively fatigue-resistant
- 22. point Another term for "muscle knot"
- 25. Must complete all of ONE exercise before moving to the next one
- 27. ________ resistance exercise is a type of training in which muscles are worked until they reach their capacity.
