Muscular Endurance Training

This exercise is done with a barbell and a incline bench (“Exercises”). The way to do this exercise is to lie down faced up on an incline bench. The exerciser grips the bar with a medium-width grip and lifts the bar off of the rack (“Exercises”). the exerciser then holds the bar straight over his or her head, and keeps the arms locked. This is the starting position of the exercise. Next the exerciser inhales slowly while moving the bar slowly down toward the upper chest (“Exercises”). After a slight pause, the exerciser pushes the bar back to the starting position while exhaling and the arms should be locked. Before the exerciser brings the bar back down again the exerciser squeeze the chest for a second. The exerciser repeats the process for the desired number of repetitions. When the exerciser is finished with the exercise the bar should be placed back on the rack (“Exercises”).

Muscular endurance is being able to work a muscle or muscle group for a long period of time at less than maximum effort, (Amezdrox, G. Dickens, S, Hosford, G. and Davis, D. 2012). Muscular endurance was tested by completing a sit up and push up test. My rating for the sit up test were super and for the push up test my rating was excellent, (see appendix 1). These tests were chosen instead of others because if you have a strong core whilst playing touch football, it is seen that you can perform better and this is what these tests work on, (Touch Football Australia, 2013).

Each exercise has 2-3 sets and 5-6 reps for maximal power input. Higher weights and lower reps will increase strength because at

In this lab, the focus was to study muscular fitness. In muscular fitness, there are two main components of measurements that are being taken, which are muscular strength and muscular endurance. Muscular strength is an individual’s ability to exert their maximum force. To test muscular strength, there are multiple tests such as 1 RM , Static Handgrip Strength, and Back Strength Dynamometer test. Muscular endurance is an individual’s ability to sustain prolonged muscular contractions. Tests that reveal results about an individual’s muscular endurance would be tests such as YMCA Submaximal Bench Press, Push-Up, and Plank test. It is important to remember that there is no single test for endurance and strength that will tell an

Athletic trainers are health care professionals who specialize in all of the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of medical conditions involving disabilities, impairment and functional limitations. Developing and implementing rehabilitation programs, recognizing and evaluating injuries and providing emergency care or first aid are a couple of the requirements that these professionals have. They typically collaborate with licensed physicians and other medical professionals, and work with patients and clients of all ages.

Athletic training is a growing field and predicted to have a 37% increase in jobs by 2018 (Bowman & Dodge, 2013 pg. 79). Although this field is growing, some frustrations from graduates about the educational programs have been on the rise. This article discusses what could be a contributing factor to these frustrations and possible solutions to alleviate them. Bowman and Dodge’s assessment of these factors provides helpful insight as to why athletic trainers are dissatisfied with their jobs, however, the article has several components that are not done well.

I thought my Uncle was a very good pick for this assignment because he had to do a running test to join the army reserves and to later on join the army. The test involved muscular endurance because they had to do long distance run in certain amount of time along with some other tests like like situps and pushups. When my uncle applied to join the reserves he was already a very fit person from play sport for school but he had to start training to get into the army.

Another components of physical fitness this fitness equipment meets is muscular strength because it “forces your muscles to exert against resistance for short duration.” Muscular endurance is another component of physical fitness because it is a sustained muscle contraction that can last less than 90 seconds. This physical equipment also meets the flexibility/mobility component because it allows for the range of motion possible for your joints and it determines the efficiency of the

My client’s waist hip ratio was 0.84 which put him in the excellent category. Having a good

Muscular strength is the ability of muscles to generate force against some type of resistance. Muscle endurance is the ability to continue to generate or force over period of time or for a number of repetitions. Muscular strength and endurance helps performance in physical activities, to improve the physical appearance, which helps a lot with weight

Weight training is the utilization of dynamic protection exercise to control and build up one's musculature. A person who participates in this action is alluded to as a jock.

Improving my physical conditioning is a must if I want to live healthier. At least once a week I should engage in some type of activity that raises my heart rate and stretches my muscles. I should avoid staying at my desk all day when I do not have homework, and move around instead.

"Long term" muscular endurance is suitable for continuous, steady-state events such as the marathon, triathlon and rowing that last beyond 2 minutes. Light loads are used so that exercises can be sustained for a prolonged period. Rest periods are kept to a minimum and ideally the athlete should progress so that the only rest between exercises is the time it takes to move between equipment.

Range of movement- This is linked to muscle pliability as the warmer the muscles get, the better the elasticity which enable the body to move easier and have a better range of movement around a joint. Exercise increases the production of synovial fluid at a joint, therefore keeps the joints lubricated and makes them suppler. Consequently, allowing a larger range of movement throughout the body. For example if an individual went on the cross trainer for 10 minutes and then went on to the rowing machine; they would have an increased range of movement at their joints, making it easier to exercise on that machine due to the muscles already being warmed up.

There are various endurance swimming events seen at the Olympics. This paper will focus on one of the longer Olympic endurance swimming events, the 1500 metre freestyle. To start off, swimmers start in a standing, lean-in position, and dive in once given the go ahead. The purpose is have enough push off and glide as far as they can before transitioning to the stroke, and at this point taking in oxygen when necessary (Swimming 2017). The length of an Olympic size pool is 50 metres, which translates to approximately 30 continuous laps underwater, with the occasional resurface to intake oxygen (Swimming 2017). Generally speaking, if given one minute per
