Study Notes
Anaerobic Exercises
- Anaerobic exercises include heavy weight training, sprinting (running or cycling), and jumping.
Sedentary Lifestyles
- Technological developments contributing to sedentary lifestyles include game consoles, TVs, phones, computers, and iPads.
Blood Pressure
- High blood pressure is classified as a reading between 140-159 mmHg.
- Normal blood pressure is defined as more than 120 over 80 mmHg but less than 140 over 90 mmHg.
Heart Rate
- A normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute.
- Target heart rate zone is determined by calculating 50% to 85% of maximum heart rate.
Cardiorespiratory Endurance
- VO2 max is the most valid measure of cardiorespiratory fitness, assessing the heart, lungs, and blood's capacity to transport and utilize oxygen during exercise.
- Tests for measuring cardiorespiratory fitness include Treadmill Stress Test, Spirometry, Exercise Tests, and Lung Diffusion Testing.
Strength Training Benefits
- A well-planned strength training program can improve various physical capabilities.
- Muscular endurance refers to a muscle’s ability to sustain repeated contractions against resistance over time.
Anabolic Steroids
- Abuse of anabolic steroids leads to dangerous side effects, including high blood pressure, heart attacks, liver cancer, acne, and breast development in men.
- Common side effects are applicable to both males and females.
Muscle Tissue and Metabolism
- Each pound of muscle tissue increases resting metabolism by approximately 50 calories per day.
Exercise Recovery
- Muscles should ideally rest for a minimum of 48 hours after a workout to allow for optimal recovery due to potential delayed soreness.
Overload Principle
- The Overload Principle is a fundamental concept in sports fitness training that emphasizes the necessity of challenging the body for improvement.
Repetitions and Sets
- Repetitions refer to the act of repeating a specific exercise movement.
- A set is defined as a specified number of repetitions performed in a workout.
Quality of Life
- Strength training programs can significantly enhance overall quality of life, particularly through the improvement of muscle mass.
