Basics of Resistance Training Chapter 9
Benefits of Resistance Training • Endurance Video • Resistance Training- a systematic program of exercise designed to increase an individual’s ability to resist or exert force. • Builds and tones muscle • Increase strength and bone density • Increase strength in ligaments and tendons • Increase metabolism • Reduce risk of Type 2 diabetes • Reduce risk of osteoporosis
Muscular Strength and Endurance • Muscular Strength- the maximum amount of force a muscle or muscle group and exert against an opposing force. • Absolute muscular strength- the maximum amount of force you are able to exert regardless of size, age, or weight. • Relative Muscular Strength- the maximum amount of force you are able to exert in relation to your body weight.
Relative Muscular Strength Relative Muscular Strength Weight lifted/Body Weight=Relative Muscular Strength Who has more relative muscular strength? Who has more absolute muscular strength?
Muscular Endurance • Muscular Endurance- the ability of the same muscle or muscle group to contract for an extended period of time without undo fatigue. • Relative Muscular Endurance- the maximum number of times you can repeatedly perform a resistance activity in relation to your body weight.
Progressive Resistance • According to the overload principle, to improve muscular strength and endurance, you must first overload the muscle. • Progressive Resistance- the continued systematic increase of muscle workload by the addition of more weight or resistance.
Progressive Resistance • Weight training- general term applied to using weights to improve general fitness. • Weight lifting- competitive sport done by athletes on a specific program to build power and strength • Weight Lifting Clip • Bodybuilding- completive sport where muscle size and shape are more important than strength.
Progressive Resistance • Strength training or Muscle Conditioning- weight training program done by athletes in competitive sports other than weight lifting. • Rehabilitation-the use of resistance training to recover from a muscular injury.
Types of Muscles • Cardiac Muscle- special type of striated tissue that forms the walls of the heart. • Smooth Muscles- muscles responsible for movements of the internal organs, such as the intestines, the bronchi of the lungs, and the bladder. • involuntary • Skeletal Muscles- muscles attached to bones that cause body movement. • More than 600 • Voluntary
Skeletal Muscles • Approximately 2/3 of the muscles in your body are skeletal muscles • They account for 40% of your body weight • Work together to produce complimentary or opposing actions • Contractions- shortening of the muscle • Extension- lengthening of the muscle
Muscle Contractions • Dynamic • Isotonic contraction- occurs when the resistance force is moveable (barbell). • Concentric- shorten • Eccentric- lengthen • Static • Isometric- occurs absent of any significant movement
Nerves and Muscle Fiber • Nerves- pathway that carry signal from the brain to the body • Muscle fiber- specific structure in the muscle that receives this signal.
How and Why Muscles Grow • Muscle Hyperplasia- an increase in the number of muscle fibers (seen only in some animals, such as cats and dogs) • Muscle Hypertrophy- a thickening of existing muscle fibers • Hypertrophy Video Clip
How and Why Muscles Get Stronger • Heredity • Muscle Size • Nerve Function (resistance training improves) • Consistent training habits • Level of strength (beginners vs. experienced) • Training Intensity • Length of the Program
Muscle Soreness • Micro tears- microscopic rips in the muscle fiber and surrounding tissue. • Likely to occur in negative or eccentric phase, especially when you come down too fast • Temporary oxygen deprivation • Waste buildup around the tissue causing pressure
Treating Muscle Soreness • Proper warm up and cool down • Possible weight reduction • Drink plenty of water • Eat nutritious foods • Time
Resistance Training Myths • Females will develop bulky muscles • Females will not develop strength • Harmful to children and teens (as young as 5 with supervision) • Older adults should not weight train • Fat turns into muscle and muscle turns into fat • Limit flexibility • Hinder athletic performance
Resistance Training Equipment • Free weights • Spotter- a person who is physically able to assist with the weight • Weight Machines • Exercise bands • Plyometric Exercises • Calisthenics
