PT Hyper/ strength/ High reps vs low

What are key aspects of progressive overload training?

• Adapting quickly and maximizing injury risk

• Adapting slowly and minimizing injury risk

• Staying stagnant and risking injury

• Avoiding adaptation and injury prevention

What is the recommended limit for increases in time, weight, or intensity each week?

• 5%

• 10%

• 15%

• 20%

What should you do if feeling tired, weak, or injured during training?

• Continue training without breaks

• Listen to the body and take breaks

• Push through the pain

• Ignore the signs and keep going

How can strength gains be maximized while minimizing injury and burnout?

• By randomly stressing muscles

• By avoiding muscle stress altogether

• By strategically stressing muscles

• By overloading muscles excessively

How does gradual increases in training challenge the body?

• By causing muscle fatigue

• By preventing plateaus in muscle growth

• By reducing overall strength

• By increasing the risk of injury

Why is following a plan important in progressive overload training?

• To prevent quick increases in weight or intensity

• To make the training more fun

• To confuse the muscles

• To skip workouts

What is the main goal of progressive overload training?

• Decreasing workout intensity

• Maintaining the same workout intensity

• Gradually increasing workout intensity

• Randomly changing workout intensity

Match the following techniques with their primary use in strength training.

• Primarily used to ensure steady muscle growth

• Progressive overload

• Used to prevent the muscles from adapting to a predictable routine

• Single-joint movements

• Often used to increase muscle endurance rather than size

• Muscle confusion techniques

• Focuses on isolating specific muscles for targeted growth

• Higher reps

Rest periods differ between hypertrophy and St_____ training, affecting the training outcome.

Intensity affects muscle fatigue, with higher intensity leading to fewer reps for strength training. Higher intensity leads to fewer R__s for strength training.
