What is the dose-response relationship? - Ans✔✔-relationship between the size
of an administered dose and the intensity of the response produced
What qualifies as external load? - Ans✔✔-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? - Ans✔✔-
Internal load
How is external load measured? - Ans✔✔-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"? - Ans✔✔-Metabolic Power
What is the biggest criticism of the deterministic model? - Ans✔✔-It is too rigid
in requirements for sporting environments
What is the main driver of a KPI plan and model? - Ans✔✔-The primary
Performance Objective (PO)
What performance determinants does the Hierarchical model use? - Ans✔✔-
Physiological Determinants and the Health aspects
, Ideally, what should a suitable KPI include? - Ans✔✔--Provide objective evidence
as a valid and reliable measure
-Inform better decision making
-Offer a gauge to assess performance changes over time
-Provide information to benchmark one person's performance versus that of
others
-Inform attainability of POs
what are signs of overtraining? - Ans✔✔-Loss of appetite, constant soreness
What does GPP stand for? - Ans✔✔-General Preparatory Period
What is the most appropriate equation for quantifying resistance training load? -
Ans✔✔-Number of sets x number of repetitions x percent repetition max
What is performance? - Ans✔✔-A function of the difference between fitness and
fatigue
Which central and peripheral sites contribute to fatigue? - Ans✔✔-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? - Ans✔✔-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? - Ans✔✔-Suggests both psychological
and physiological factors limit performance with a particular focus on
subconscious avoidance of catastrophic failure due to severe disruptions in
homeostasis.
