Document Summary
Why do people exercise: participate in exercise in exercise for various reasons: Any movement, activity or exercise that elicits physiological adaptations to improve some quantitative or qualitative measures of health (e. g. blood pressure) Any activity or exercise that elicits general improvements in health-related parameters of fitness. Specific training that is goal-orientated; aims to elicit improvements in health- and skill-related parameters of fitness. Physiological programming modalities: traditional cardiovascular modalities. Outdoor activities: traditional strengthening / flexibility: Traditional resistance (bands, machine, free weights, etc. ) Need to address muscle imbalance and postural deficiencies (stability and mobility), balance, core and movement efficiency first! Within resistance training there are many outcomes: 3 pillars of training: movement essentials (me) We all need to move efficiently avoids injury; attains success. Me provides appropriate starting points for novice/deconditioned, or timely preventative maintenance/reinforcements of proper movement mechanics for more advanced: metabolic conditioning (mec) Energy systems drive muscle action optimal energy pathway efficiency is key to almost all exercise/activity goals.
