Which of the following fitness components will be developed after 6 months of the following training?
Muscular strength
Local muscular endurance
Muscular power
Speed endurance
Progressive Overload should be applied to any well designed training program when:
Coaches think their athletes are being lazy and want to work them harder
Athletes notice their training is becoming easier
Training becomes "stale" and variety is need to get things back on track
Athletes think they can handle extra workloads
The Law of Diminishing Returns can explain the following
Overload percentages decreasing as training progresses
The 'accommodation phase' that sees performance drops after training starts
Rapid initial gains which then slow down as adaptations occur
Running times decreasing as training improvements occur
If Steve did correctly apply all of the training principles to his continuous training, which of the following adaptations would contribute most to a 10% increase in his aerobic capacity:
Decreased fat:muscle ratio
Increased aortic emptying
Decreased myosin ATPase
Increased blood volume
Which of the following training methods would most likely result in the following chronic adaptations if undertaken for a period of 6 months – increased glycolytic enzymes & lactate tolerance:
Intermediate Interval
Plyometrics
Fartlek
Circuit
What is regarded as the minimum duration of a training program time required to see development of chronic adaptations which will improve performance?
4 weeks

cycling
Netball (GK)
Boxing
