- Q3What is variety in training?Doing the same exercises every dayChanging up exercises and routines to prevent boredom and promote adaptationNot varying your intensity levelAvoiding new exercises30s
- Q4What is reversibility?The ability to maintain fitness without exerciseThe ability to gain muscle mass quicklyThe loss of fitness gains when exercise is stoppedThe loss of sleep gains when exercise is stopped30s
- Q5What are training thresholds?The amount of weight liftedThe number of sets and reps completedThe minimum and maximum levels of exercise intensity needed to achieve desired resultsThe number of exercises in a routine30s
- Q6What is a warm-up?Completing a high-intensity exercise routineStretching for an extended period of timeA brief period of low-intensity exercise to prepare the body for more intense exerciseSkipping the first few minutes of exercise30s
- Q7What is a cool down?Completing a high-intensity exercise routineStopping exercise abruptlyA brief period of low-intensity exercise after more intense exercise to help the body recoverStretching for an extended period of time30s
- Q8
What is the effect of training within the suitable training threshold on performance?
Enhances performance by allowing optimal adaptations to occur

Negatively impacts performance by overexerting athletes preventing prolonged activity
Enhances performance by preparing the body for exercise, enabling athlete to move faster and power powerfully in order to get the most out of training session.
