RC WW Q3 Test

When the body is subjected to stresses and overloads of varying intensities, it will gradually adapt over time to overcome whatever demands are placed on it is referred to as:

• Circuit Training

• Fartlek Training

• SAID Principle

• Accommodating Resistance

Training in which an athlete alternates between two activiites, typically requiring varying speeds and intensities is referred to as:

• Interval Training

• Progressive Resistance Training

• Circuit Training

• Accommodating Resistance

Explosive jump training, incorporating speed and strength training to enhance explosiveness is referred to as:

• Eccentric Training

• Ballistic Training

• Dynamic Training

• Plyometric Training

A feature unique to isokinetic testing or training apparatus where a counter force is provided so that the speed of contraction controlled.

• Isokinetic Training

• Accommodating Resistance Training

• Progressive Resistance Training

• Isometric Training

A muscle that opposes the action of another to conterbalance a contraction (ex. bicep vs. tricep)

• Antagonist

• Agonist

A muscle that contracts while an opposing muscle relaxes is referred to as the:

• Antagonist muscle

• Agonist muscle

A series of quick but gentle bouncing motions designed to stretch the muscles but must be done cautiously.

• Dynamic stretching

• Static Stretching

• Ballistic Stretching

Stretching techniques that slowly and gradually lengthen the muscle of groups of muscles and their tendons is referred to as:

• Static Stretching

• Ballistic Stretching

• Dynamic Stretching

Movement where the distal segment of the joint is fixed on an immovable surface.

• Closed chain exercise
