Document Summary
Merrigan: ho#4: understand the basic concepts of endocrinology, explain the roles of anabolic hormones, describe hormonal responses to resistance exercise, develop training programs that demonstrate an understanding of human endocrine responses. Key terms (slide 3) hormones: chemical messengers that are synthesized, stored, and released into the blood by endocrine glands and certain other cells. endocrine glands: body structures specialized for releasing hormones into the blood. General adaptation syndrome: the role of stress hormones in adaptation cycles. Timely stimulus removal to allow for functional recovery. Physiological roles of hormones (slide 4) progressive overload: regulation of reproduction, maintenance of internal environment (homeostasis, glucagon (putting glucose into the blood), insulin (taking out glucose from the blood, energy production, utilization, and storage, growth and development. Resistance training leads to increases in lean tissue mass. Different resistance training programs result in different changes in muscle and connective tissue size. Testosterone can help performance (cognitive and neuromuscular affects= higher chronic levels can help)
