Preparation & training methods recap

Within periodisation, there are three cycles as part of a year?

• True

• False

Which of the following cycles are part of periodisation?

• Mini-cycle

• Meso-cycle

• Macro-cycle

• Micro-cycle

Aerobic capacity is the ability of the body to inspire, transport and utilise _________ to perform sustained periods of aerobic activity

VO2Max can be effected by which of the following factors:

• Age

• Height

• Gender

• Training

What is the typical intensity of periods of work in HIIT training?

• 80-95%

• 70-80%

• 55-70%

• 100% HR Max

Direct gas analysis is a predicted measure of VO2max

• True

• False

The Cooper-12 minute run is suitable for people with health conditions

• True

• False

Following an aerobic training program at the correct intensity and duration causes structural adaptions to:

• The respiratory system only

• The cardiovascular system, musculo-skeletal system and metabolic function but not the respiratory system

• The músculo-skeletal system and metabolic function only

• The cardiovascular system, respiratory system, musculo-skeletal system and metabolic function

Karvonen's principle is

• 220-age = HRmax

• Training HR = resting HR + %(HRmax - resting HR)

• Training zone = HR max- resting HR

• Resting HR - HR max = training %

What principle of training is being described "Training includes a range of exercises to prevent boredom and limit overuse injuries"

• Specificity

• Overload

• Variance

• Progression
