Define maximum oxygen uptake? (3 marks)
The maximum rate at which oxygen can be taken up and utilised by the working muscles
1 of 9
Define Running Economy? (2 marks)
The oxygen cost of running at a specified velocity
2 of 9
Name the five principles of training. (5 marks)
Overload, specificity, reversibility, maintenance, and individual differences
3 of 9
What are the issues related to specificity of training? (2 marks)
Local muscle adaptation is specific to the muscle groups used in training. Adaption is specific to the metabolic systems used in training
4 of 9
Which is the most important variable for maintenance of aerobic capacity if volume of training is reduced? (1 mark)
maintenance
5 of 9
What are the objectives of training?
To stimulate structural and functional adaptations that improve performance in a specific task
6 of 9
What are the 3 physiological determinants of endurance performance?
Maximum Oxyge Uptake, Lactate threshold, and running economy
7 of 9
What is overload?
greater than normal stress on a body system that stimulates adaptation in that system to produced an enhanced capacity for performance
8 of 9
How do you control overload?
Overload is manipulated by controlling the frequency, duration and intensity of exercise
