What is the main idea of progressive overload in training?
Training should remain the same to avoid injury.
Training should gradually progress and become more demanding.
Training should decrease in intensity over time.
Training should only focus on one type of exercise.
What does progressive overload involve?
Decreasing the frequency of training.
Keeping the training intensity constant.
Pushing the body past its normal limits.
Reducing the time spent on training.
Which of the following is NOT a method to achieve progressive overload?
Increasing frequency.
Increasing intensity.
Decreasing rest time.
Reducing the number of reps.
Which of the following is an example of progressive overload?
Running the same distance every day
Gradually increasing the distance you run each time
Only doing bicep curls
Swimming at the same pace every time
Why is rest and recovery essential for the body after exercise?
To allow the body to repair, recover, and adapt
To increase the rate of progression
To reduce the need for sleep
To prevent the body from adapting
What can happen if the body does not recover after exercise?
It can reduce the rate of progression
It can increase muscle strength
It can improve flexibility
It can enhance endurance
What happens if training is stopped or the intensity is not sufficient enough to cause adaptation?
The training effects are maintained.
The training effects can be lost, resulting in reversibility.
The training effects improve.
The training effects remain unchanged.
What is another term for reversibility in physical training?
Overtraining
De-training
Supercompensation
Adaptation
Why should training be varied?
To make participants tired
To make participants bored
To maintain interest and avoid boredom
To make training harder
What is interval training?
A method where an individual alternates work periods with rest and recovery.
A method where an individual works continuously without rest.
A method where an individual only rests without any work periods.
A method where an individual works at a constant speed.
