- 1. Multiple Choice
A coach designs a different training strategy for each of the athletes in her team based on their most up-to-date game analysis data. This is an example of
duration
intensity
specificity
variety
- 2. Multiple Choice
An athlete who is deciding how often they should train to get the best results is applying the principle of training known as
duration
frequency
intensity
specificity
- 3. Multiple Choice
The specific muscles (or parts of the body) that are targeted during a particular training session influences the frequency of training sessions in a microcycle because
you can train your lower body more often than you can train your upper body.
you can train your upper body more often than you can train your lower body.
you can only ever train the same muscles or body parts every third day.
if a training session targets particular muscles or parts of the body on one day, it is possible to train different muscles or parts of the body the next day.
- 4. Multiple Choice
Some of the ways in which intensity can be measured include
the relative percentage of maximum heart rate, the relative percentage of VO2 max, lactate threshold and the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale.
the relative percentage of maximum heart rate, the relative percentage of VO2 max, lactate threshold and length of a session.
Lactate threshold, weights/reps/sets, and length of a session.
Lactate threshold, weights/reps/sets, and type of activity completed.
- 5. Multiple Choice
Training to meet personal goals and training objectives is an example of which principle of training?
individuality
intensity
progressive overload
variety
- 6. Multiple Choice
Duration is a principle of training that states
the number of times training occurs should be appropriate for the selected sport or physical activity
the time spent completing a particular activity within a training session should be appropriate for the selected sport or physical activity.
the magnitude of exertion should be appropriate for the selected sport or physical activity.
the length of training time should be appropriate for the selected sport or physical activity
- 7. Multiple Choice
Darcy is developing a training strategy for high jump that aims to develop the efficiency of her ATP–PC system. Which of the following is most suitable for measuring the intensity of her efforts training sessions?
the relative percentage of maximum heart rate
the height of the bar
the speed of the approach
the Borg Rathing of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale
- 8. Multiple Choice
Over several microcycles, an athlete gradually increases the physical demands of his training in order to drive physiological adaptations. This principle of training is known as
progressive overload
specificity
intensity
selective overload
- 9. Multiple Choice
Including a variety of different activities in a training program is important as it
increases the chance of physiological adaptation.
prevents automation.
makes it easier to apply progressive overload.
improves the specificity of training.
- 10. Multiple Choice
For a chronic physiological adaptation to be achieved (and result in measurable improvements in performance), a training program should generally run for a minimum of
4-10 weeks
6-10 weeks
8-12 weeks
10-14 weeks
