PRACTICE QUESTIONS 230 QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
DETAILED ANSWERS WITH RATIONALES (VERIFIED
ANSWERS) |ALREADY GRADED A+
Understand the relevant theory and principles that underpin training. - ANSWER:
Training Load model, Periodization, Parallel training model, Sequential Training
Model,

Periodization vs Programming - ANSWER: Periodization is a a macro-management
strategy that serves as a training blueprint, from which periods of time are assigned
that target specific skills, fitness, or performance related factors. Volume and
intensity are inversely related. 1-3 peaks/macrocycles per year

Programming is an operation of strategic thinking which is best accomplished when
ongoing monitoring is integrated into the periodization process.

How is biological adaptation achieved? - ANSWER: by disturbing the current capacity
of the system

What is supercompensation? - ANSWER: Supercompensation is the effect whereby
performance is enhanced if the body is able/allowed to adapt.

What syndrome is supercompensation related to? - ANSWER: General adaptation
syndrome

What is general adaptation syndrome? - ANSWER: The framework of interaction
between the imposed training stress, acute fatigue response, adaptation, and a new
level of homeostasis/performance.

How does overtraining syndrome develop? - ANSWER: After continued high volume,
high intensity training or both when an athlete is over-reached.

Which training model is when performance of a positive fitness effect and a negative
fatigue effect decay exponentially over time but at different rates? - ANSWER:
Fitness-fatigue model

What is the dose-response relationship? - ANSWER: relationship between the size of
an administered dose and the intensity of the response produced

What qualifies as external load? - ANSWER: Amount of weight lifted, distance/speed
of running, its what an athlete has done.

What is it called when an athlete has responded to an external load? - ANSWER:
Internal load

, How is external load measured? - ANSWER: camera systems, global positioning
systems, local positioning systems, often in conjunction with other sensors such as
accelerometers and power meters.

What is the principle that the energy cost of acceleration is equivalent to running at
a constant speed up an "equivalent slope"? - ANSWER: Metabolic Power

What is the most appropriate equation for quantifying resistance training load? -
ANSWER: Number of sets x number of repetitions x percent repetition max

What is performance? - ANSWER: A function of the difference between fitness and
fatigue

Which central and peripheral sites contribute to fatigue? - ANSWER: Activation of
the motor command (brain)
Propagation of the action potential through the descending motor pathway
Myofilament excitation-contraction coupling
Status of the intracellular milieu

What is Psychobiological model of fatigue? - ANSWER: Modification of intensity
whereby fatigue occurs when the effort required exceeds maximal effort the athlete
is willing to exert or when the athlete believes the effort has been maximal and it
feels impossible to continue.

What is the Integrative governor theory? - ANSWER: Suggests both psychological and
physiological factors limit performance with a particular focus on subconscious
avoidance of catastrophic failure due to severe disruptions in homeostasis.

what is the deterministic model of training? - ANSWER: a model of sports
performance wherein there is a unique consequence or or outcome to every input or
state

What is a dynamic systems theory of training? - ANSWER: a model of sports
performance used to describe complex behavior across complex and dynamic
systems

What are positive adaptation measures when measuring heart rate? - ANSWER:
Improvements in heart rate variability and heart rate recovery at rest and post
exercise.

In which environments and with what frequency of monitoring of HRV is a good
indication of positive adaptation? - ANSWER: Team sports when used at least once a
week
Individual sports when used at least once a week
