This document discusses several key concepts related to strength training: 1) Eccentric force can exceed maximal isometric strength by 50-100%; the stretch shortening cycle (SSC) increases force and power when a muscle contracts immediately after being stretched. 2) The SSC relies on elastic energy stored in tendons during eccentric contractions. Proper conditioning is needed before high eccentric work to prevent damage. 3) Muscle spindles and Golgi tendon organs play roles in the SSC through reflexive muscle contractions and tension inhibition, respectively. Having more spindle than GTO response allows for greater SSC power. 4) Force production depends on factors like joint angle, muscle length, moment
This PPT en lights about the muscle function & factors affecting it. In short everything about biomechanics of muscle.
Types: Static,cycling,ballistic, PNF stretching,manual, mechanical,self ,active and passive stretching
Endurance refers to the ability to repeatedly perform a physical skill or activity for an extended period of time. There are two main types of endurance: cardio-respiratory endurance required for whole-body activities like running that stress the heart and lungs, and muscular endurance where specific muscles must work continuously like in cycling. Cardio-respiratory endurance can be improved through training methods like continuous running, varied pace running, and interval training. This allows one to work for longer periods with less effort and quicker recovery. Muscular endurance can be built through circuit training that gradually increases time or repetitions at each station.

Plyometric exercise involves stretching muscles eccentrically followed by a rapid concentric contraction, utilizing the stretch-shortening cycle. It can improve power, strength, and athletic performance. Plyometrics progressively overload the muscles through exercises of increasing intensity like jumps, hops, and throws. Proper surface, equipment, warm-up, technique, and recovery are needed to safely maximize training adaptations and prevent injury.
Cardio and muscle endurance Aerobic exercise (also known as cardio) is physical exercise of low to high intensity that depends primarily on the aerobic energy-generating process. Aerobic literally means "relating to, involving, or requiring free oxygen", and refers to the use of oxygen to adequately meet energy demands during exercise via aerobic metabolism. Generally, light-to-moderate intensity activities that are sufficiently supported by aerobic metabolism can be performed for extended periods of time
The document discusses neuromuscular re-education, which is a rehabilitation technique used to restore normal movement in people with neurological impairments. It aims to improve balance, coordination, and proprioception. Therapists assess weaknesses, spasticity, and alternative pathways to develop individualized treatment plans using exercises, stretching, electrical stimulation, and splinting. For cerebellar ataxia patients, therapy focuses on static and dynamic balance, trunk-limb coordination, and contracture prevention to restore trunk stability and provide a foundation for movement. The overall goal is to re-educate patients on effective and optimal performance of difficult actions and functional skills.

A basic stretching to perform also needs perfect guidance because of presence of various types of stretching techniques. It is very important treatment or preventive measure also performed as warm up or cool down before any game.
1) Muscular strength is defined as the ability to produce maximum external force against resistance. Maximum force (Fmax), maximum velocity (Vmax), and maximum performance (Pmax) are key concepts in analyzing strength. 2) Fmax and Vmax have a parametric relationship that depends on the motor task, such as their inverse relationship for shot put throws of different weights. 3) Developing strength for explosive athletic movements requires both increasing maximum force (Fmax) through weight training as well as decreasing the explosive strength deficit between Fmax and maximum maximorum force through speed and plyometric training to improve rate of force development.
Lecture on training intensity based out of the text: Science and Practice of Strength Training, 2nd Edition. Lecture given at Wilmington College for HPE 345, Strength Programming for Sport.
Dear all, This ppt includes the acute and chronic effect of exercise on different body system which includes musculoskeletal systems, cardiovascular systems, respiratory system, endocrive system, psychological effects etc. I hope this is helpful for you. Thank you
The document discusses six principles of sports training: 1. Specificity - training should mimic the specific demands of the sport. 2. Overload - training loads must gradually increase over time to continue adaptations. 3. Adaptation - the body adjusts to increased physical demands through repeated practice or training. 4. Progression - training demands must steadily increase as fitness levels improve. 5. Reversibility - fitness gains are lost if training stops but can be regained when training resumes. 6. Variation - training should include variations in intensity, duration, and exercises to prevent overuse and maintain interest.
This document defines muscular strength and endurance, and their differences in training. It discusses the benefits of strength training, including reduced back problems, increased confidence and performance, and reduced bone and muscle loss. It describes how strength training uses heavy weights for few reps, while endurance training uses moderate weights for many reps. It addresses common misconceptions about weight training and discusses differences in muscle fiber types between men and women.

The document discusses human energy transfer during exercise and rest. It explains that exercise is a stressor that disrupts homeostasis and causes oxygen consumption to rise slowly over 1-4 minutes, creating an oxygen deficit that relies on anaerobic metabolism. This oxygen deficit ends when steady-state aerobic metabolism is reached. After exercise, excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) occurs as oxygen consumption remains elevated for minutes to days to restore homeostasis. The document reviews evidence that higher intensity exercise, shorter rest periods between sets, and more frequent daily exercise sessions result in greater EPOC and could impact body composition through increased calorie expenditure.
Detailed facts regarding the need as well as the principles of aerobics in maintaining cardiovascular functioning.
This document discusses key concepts in training adaptation and periodization. It explains that gains come from adaptation to overload stimuli and homeostasis must be broken for further improvements. Two ways to cause adaptation are increasing load/volume qualitatively or changing exercise modality quantitatively. Training should become more specific and individualized over time to continue providing an overload stimulus.
