Document Summary
*involves sudden sharp recruitment patterns & for many different purposes. Not just for body builders = plays role in other types of fitness programmes & exercise prescription for health benefits. *ex: adolescents/healthy adults/children/elderly/clinical populations back pain /pelvic floor. 3- what is targeted training frequency & are there any time constraints that may affect workout. 4- what major groups need to be trained all major muscles groups are trained generally but some may require prioritization based upon strengths/weaknesses or demands of sport-activity. *need to design according to goal & what training intended for. Ex: need to train muscles used in sport otherwise no improvement = need to do resistance training that target frequently used muscles. Dynamic repetitions w/ both concentric & eccentric components. *stress placed on muscle is important but eccentric = more susceptible to inflammation & catabolism. So maybe not want children to perform eccentric muscle actions. Generally believed that if smaller muscle groups already fatigued.
