Document Summary

Exercise prescription, training, adaptations, and performance (chapter 8-10; 13-15) Strength training exercise training in which the resistance against which a muscle generates force is progressively increased over time. Strength the ability of a muscle to exert force - generally the maximal ability. One-repetition maximum (1rm) maximal amount of weight that can be lifted just one time. Changes in muscle strength with resistance training in women. Resistance training programs can produce a 25-100% improvement in strength within 3-6 months. For many years, strength gains were assumed to result directly from increase in muscle size (hypertrophy) Gains in muscle size are generally paralleled by gains in strength, and losses in muscle size correlate highly with losses in strength. Tempting to conclude that a direct cause-and-effect relationship exists between muscle size and muscle strength. While there is a relationship between muscle size and muscle strength, muscle strength involves more than mere muscle size.
