| Questions | Answers |
|---|---|
| Coordination | Relates to the ability to use the senses, such as sight and hearing, together with body parts, in performing motor tasks smoothly and accurately |
| Power | Relates to the rate at which one can perform work |
| Reaction Time | Relates to the time elapsed between a stimulus and the beginning of the reaction to it |
| Speed | Ability to perform movement within a short period of time |
| Aerobic Activity | Exercise that requires oxygen to produce the necessary ATP to carry out the activity |
| Anaerobic Activity | Exercise that requires short bursts at a high rate of intensity. Your body does not use oxygen to complete the task, therefore you can only do the exercise for a short period of time |
| Isokinetic Exercise | The velocity of the motion is controlled mechanically so that the limb rotates at a set velocity |
| Isometric Exercise | Muscle contraction that is static, there is no visible joint movement. Ex: Wall sit, grip strength |
| Warm-Up | Purpose is to slowly elevate the pulse and body temperature to an aerobic level by engaging in 5-10 min of slow aerobic activity |
| Cool-Down | Purpose is to slowly decrease the heart rate and body temperature by engaging in slow aerobic activity for at least 5 min. |
| Frequency | Number of training sessions per week to adequately stimulate the muscle |
| Duration | The time or length of an individual exercise session |
| Intensity | Can be manipulated by varying the weight, number of repetitions, the length of rest interval between exercises |
| Calorie | A unit of energy |
| Locomotor Skills | They are a group of movements in which the feet move the body from one place to another. Ex: Walking, Skipping |
| Non-Locomotor Skills | Any motion of the body that doesn't result in traveling from one place to another. Ex: Clapping, stretching |
| Manipulative Skills | a category of motor skills-those that involve using an object |
