Muscular Strength Muscular Endurance & Training Principles
Skeletal Muscles • -600 muscles in the body • Functions: • Attach to bones • Good posture • Make movement possible Bones act as levers, so when muscles apply force, movement occurs
Types of Skeletal Muscles • Fast Twitch Examples Anaerobic Exercise – brief high-energy expenditure, Strength activities
Slow Twitch Examples Aerobic Activities- activities that are prolonged and require constant oxygen….endurance activities
Muscular Strength • Amount of force a muscle can exert one time • Strength is developed using lower reps, & heavier weights
Muscular Endurance • The ability of a muscle to contract over a extended period of time • Endurance is built by light weights and more repetitions
MUSCULAR The ability of a muscle to contract over a extended period of time Endurance is built by light weights and more repetitions Cardiovascular Fitness Heart/lungs/blood vessels working together, when one exercises Muscular vs. Cardio Endurance
Proper Pace for Lifting • 2 seconds to lift/exert force • 3 seconds to lower/release force
Proper Breathing • You should EXHALE when lifting/exerting force • You should INHALE when lowering/releasing force

Training Principles S- Specificity P- Progression O- Overload R- Reversibility T- Train & Maintain
S - Specificity Only the muscles or body systems being worked benefit from theexercise.
S - Specificity Example: Using theplatform shoes to help strengthen your gastrocnemius to help you jump higher.
P - Progression In order to improve, people should gradually increase the physical activity.
P - Progression Example: Start off with doing one level of stairs and then progress to doing two levels.
O - Overload To improve the fitness component, the body must work above your normal level.
O - Overload Example: You must increase the repetitions, weight or frequency of the activity.
R - Reversibility Reversibility means, “Use it or lose it.”
R - Reversibility Example: If you stop running three days a week your body will start to reverse back to the original level.
T-Train & Maintain Training You must develop your fitness routine first.
T-Train & Maintain Maintain After you have developed your fitness routine you must keep your fitness levels up.
