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 (a)   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
