Study Notes

Macronutrient Calculation

  • Calories from carbohydrates: grams of carbohydrates × 4 kcal/g
  • Calories from protein: grams of protein × 4 kcal/g
  • Calories from fat: grams of fat × 9 kcal/g
  • Total caloric intake: sum of calories from carbohydrates, protein, and fat

Macronutrients in Strength Training

  • Endurance athletes: require higher carbohydrate intake for sustained energy
  • Muscle growth: increased protein intake supports recovery and hypertrophy
  • Fat loss: moderate carbohydrate intake, higher protein intake, and careful fat intake to maintain energy and muscle mass

Fluid Replacement Post-Exercise

  • Weigh the athlete before and after exercise
  • Calculate weight loss: pre-exercise weight - post-exercise weight
  • Determine fluid intake: multiply weight loss by 1.5 (liters)
  • Recommended intake: 1.5 liters per kilogram of weight lost

Neural vs. Hypertrophic Adaptations

  • Neural adaptations: increased motor unit recruitment, improved firing rates and intermuscular coordination
  • Hypertrophic adaptations: increases in muscle cross-sectional area, stimulated by overload, high volume, and consistent training

Training-Specific Adaptations

  • Endurance training: increases capillary density and mitochondrial efficiency
  • Strength training: enlarges type II fibers, boosting explosive power

Periodization

  • Hypertrophy/Endurance phase: high volume, moderate intensity, builds muscle size and stamina
  • Strength phase: moderate volume, higher intensity, focuses on force production
  • Power phase: low volume, high intensity, develops speed and explosive power
  • Macrocycle: long-term training plan (e.g., 1 year)
  • Mesocycle: intermediate periods (e.g., 4-6 weeks for hypertrophy)

Linking Energy Systems to Exercises

  • ATP-PC system: short bursts (0-10 seconds), e.g., sprints, maximum lifts
  • Glycolytic system: moderate effort (30-120 seconds), e.g., 400m run, high-intensity interval training (HIIT)
  • Oxidative system: long-duration efforts (>2 minutes), e.g., marathons, steady-state cardio

Work-to-Rest Ratios

  • ATP-PC: 1:12 to 1:20 (e.g., 10 seconds work, 2 minutes rest)
  • Glycolytic: 1:3 to 1:5 (e.g., 30 seconds work, 90 seconds rest)
  • Oxidative: 1:1 to 1:3 (e.g., 5 minutes work, 5-10 minutes rest)

Force Production

  • Key biomechanical and anatomical factors: joint angles, muscle activation
  • Stretch-shortening cycle: harness elastic energy for plyometric power
  • Stretch reflex: a natural reaction to a muscle being stretched, storing energy during stretching for release during concentric muscle contraction
  • Phases of stretch-shortening cycle: eccentric, amortization, and concentric

Sequence of Testing

  • Non-fatiguing tests
  • Agility tests
  • Max strength/power tests
  • Sprint/speed tests
  • Local muscular endurance tests

Lever Classes

  • 1st Class Lever: Triceps extension
  • 2nd Class Lever: Calf raises
  • 3rd Class Lever: Bicep curl

Muscle Actions

  • Prime Mover (Agonist): primary muscle responsible for movement

  • Agility tests (e.g., T-test)
  • Maximum strength/power tests (e.g., 1RM)
  • Speed tests

  • Transition
  • Second Pull
  • Catch

Nutrition Recommendations

  • Carbohydrate intake:

  • Protein intake:

    • General fitness: 0.8-1 g/kg/day
    • Aerobic athletes: 1-1.6 g/kg/day
    • Strength athletes: 1.4-1.7 g/kg/day

Energy Systems and Adaptations

  • Improving lactic acid energy system: decrease rest periods
  • Fuel source shift: from fats (low intensity) to carbohydrates (high intensity)
  • Sympathetic vs. parasympathetic activity:
    • Sympathetic: fight-or-flight response
    • Parasympathetic: rest and digestion
  • Fiber types:
    • Type 1 (slow twitch): endurance
    • Type 2 (fast twitch): speed, power, strength

Stretching Techniques

  • Hold-relax
  • Contract-relax
  • Hold-relax with agonist contraction
