Document Summary
Muscular strength versus muscular power versus muscular endurance: muscular strength: maximal force that a muscle or muscle group can generate, muscular power: rate of performing work. Power is typically more important than strength: muscular endurance: capacity to perform repeated muscular contractions (or sustain a single contraction over time). Aerobic power and anaerobic power: aerobic power: rate of energy release by oxygen-dependent metabolic processes (oxidative phosphorylation, anaerobic power: rate of energy release by oxygen-independent metabolic processes. Athlete should never stay in the over-reaching zone for long. Performance is maximized by periods of undertraining, acute overload, overreaching: overtraining: occurs when training intensity/frequency is too great to allow proper adaptation. It can be caused by aerobic, anerobic, resistance training. Overtraining: occurs when training intensity/frequency is too great to allow proper adaptation. It can be caused by aerobic, anaerobic, resistance training. Symptoms include unexplainable drop in performance, persistent fatigue, drop in motivation, increased sense of effort during training, poor sleep.
