Document Summary
Carry-over : benefits received from a specific task will apply to other activities that are somewhat related. What carries over is usually the fundamental biological changes ie. improving vo2 in cycling will improve vo2 in running and swimming. Fat-free (lean) mass, essential fat, non-essential fat : what not fat, fat you need to live, extra fat. Obesity : excessive body fat that may negatively influence health. Sample question - effects of practicing jumping in novice jumps. Guidelines not static and fixed, based on some evidences that not everyone agrees on. 2-3 times a week (recovery time is needed for adaptation) How much weight (maintaining overload by progressing activity) Significant increase in strength then need to get closer to 80% max. Some suggest movement to failure is better than arbitrary percentage. Don"t go past failure (not forcing performance) - increasing risk of injury. Fixed weights decreases risk of injury (lateral stability) Free weights improves core depending on the activity.
