Document Summary

Exercise exertion for the sake of training or improvement (physical, intellectual, moral) Improvement application of an exercise stress so as to produce an adaptation in the individual that is more advanced than his/her present training level. Maintenance application of an exercise stress in an attempt to preserve and upkeep a certain level of adaptation in an individual. Detraining the neglect of applying an exercise stress resulting in a gradual loss of training adaptations. Training effect an improvement or maintenance of the adaptation to a specific exercise stress. Duration period of time that the proper intensity level is maintained during exercise in a single workout. Frequency number of times an individual repeats a complete exercise. Overload place more load (stress) on muscle(s) and/or energy system than what an individual is accustomed to. Progression gradual increase in intensity and/or duration to maximize adaptation. Specificity a specific stress produces a specific adaptation. Reversibility benefits of training are reversible.
