Resistance Training Michael Sala Audience- 9th Grade
What is resistance training? • Resistance to the force of muscular contraction • Elastic, hydraulic, free weight resistance • Increase in muscle size and strength Elastic Hydraulic Free Weight
Benefits of Resistance Training • Increase in bone density • Increase in strength • Raises metabolic rate • Reducing body fat • Lowers high blood pressure • Lowers risk of cardiovascular disease • Healthy
Training Terminology • Sets – number of repetitions without rest • Repetition – full range of motion contraction • Training Volume – number of sets/repetitions • Negatives – eccentric contraction • Overtraining – excessive training = poor performance
Overtraining I feel Dizzy!
Types of Resistance Training • Muscle endurance/toning training • Muscle building training • Strength training • Performance training • Training for power
Muscle Endurance/Toning • Tolerate high levels of lactic acid • Body relies on Glycolytic System • Performing many repetitions for a long time
Muscle Endurance/Toning • Prescribed Exercise • 3-5 sets per body part • 60-70% of 1RM • >12 repetitions per set • 2-3 days a week • 30 seconds of rest between sets
Muscle Endurance/Toning • Example Workout (Chest) • 1RM= 100 lbs.
Muscle Building • Hypertrophy- increase in muscle size • Volume overloading- increase of sets and reps • Growth hormone, testosterone, cortisol release
Muscle Building • Prescribed Exercise • 8-12 sets per body part • 70-80% of 1RM • 8-12 repetitions for each set • 2 days per week • 90 seconds of rest between sets
Muscle Building • Example Workout (Chest) • 1RM= 100lbs.
Strength Training • Dependent on nervous and muscular system • Recruitment of type II muscle fibers • Motor unit recruitment Light weight baby!
Strength Training • 3-5 sets per body part • 80-100% of 1RM • 3-5 repetitions per set • 1-2 days a week • 3 minutes of rest between sets
Strength Training • Example Workout (Chest) • 1RM= 100lbs
Performance Training • Sport specific training • Utilizing specific exercises for particular sport • Specified increase in performance
Performance Training • Example Workout (Football Speed)
Training for Power • Power = Force x Velocity • Sports can require power • Train muscle for specific sport • Explosive movement/contraction I can’t get back up!
Training for Power • Example Workout
Training Safety • Warm ups are essential • Maintain proper form • Proper breathing • Proper Hydration • Pain = • Knowing the signs and symptoms of overtraining – Definition • Cool down/ Stretching STOP
