Across
- 2. uses a quick eccentric stretch of the muscle to faciliate a concentric contraction
- 4. occurs as you progressively add weight
- 6. exercises that take place before a training session begins
- 11. an extremely effective and perhaps the most widely used techneqie of stretching
- 13. successive forceful contractions of the agonist muscle
- 14. the unconscious perception of movement and spatial orientation
- 15. stretching techniques that involve combinations of alternating contractions and stretches
- 17. ability to generate force rapidly
- 18. a training technique that is a type of cross country running, originated in Sweden
- 20. resistance is given at a fixed velocity of movement with accommodating resistance
- 21. determines how much oxygen can be used during 1 minute of maximal exercise
- 23. maximum force that can be applied by a muscle during a single maximum contraction
- 24. a critical factor in training and conditioning
- 26. ability to perform repetitive muscular contractions against some resistance
- 27. training program of an important component of all comprehensive strengthening programs which is the core
- 29. uses a series of exercises stations that consist of various combinations of weight training, flexibility, bodyweight training, and brief aerobic exercises
- 30. involves a bouncing movement in which repetitive contractions of the agonist muscle
- 31. health-related components of fitness
- 32. the network of neurons and muscles involved in the control of movement and posture
Down
- 1. the ability to move a joint or series of joints smoothly and easily through a full range of motion
- 3. trains muscles to function concentrically, eccentrically,and isometrically in three planes simultaneously
- 5. involves a muscle contraction in which the length of the muscle remains constant while tension develops toward a maximum force against an immovable resistance
- 7. the most commonly used technique for improving muscular strength
- 8. alternating periods of work with active recovery
- 9. relates to the process of training and conditioning
- 10. one of the more easily available means of developing strength
- 12. the amount of blood the heart pumps in one minute
- 16. an approach to conditioning that attempts to bring about peak performance while reducing injuries and overtraining in the athlete
- 19. essential to minimize fatigue which can lead to injury
- 22. enables the body to cool and return to a resting state
- 25. muscle being stretched in response to contraction of the agonist muscle
- 28. quadriceps muscles that contracts to extend the knee
- 33. the capability of a joint to go through its complete spectrum of movements
