Question

Match the following. Match the items in the left column to the items in the right column. 1. exercise specificity principle the basic rule that a muscle will increase in size and strength in order to adjust to the resistance placed on it 2. muscle adaptation principle wherein the muscles of the body will respond to and be conditioned by the type of exercise that's performed 3. overload principle the amount of time during which the muscle relaxes and recovers between exercise sets 4. repetitions the basic rule that the amount of resistance and duration put on a muscle will cause it to become conditioned 5. rest a planned number of repetitions for an exercise 6. set the principle that muscles will lose size and strength if resistance training is not continued 7. The Law of Reversibility the number of times in a row that resistance is applied to a muscle; sometimes referred to as reps

Answer 1

The matching of terms for the given items is: 1. exercise specificity principle, 2. muscle adaptation principle, 3. overload principle, 4. repetitions, 5. rest, 6. The Law of Reversibility, 7. set.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct matching of terms for the given items is:

1. Exercise specificity principle - the basic rule that a muscle will increase in size and strength in order to adjust to the resistance placed on it.
2. Muscle adaptation principle - wherein the muscles of the body will respond to and be conditioned by the type of exercise that's performed.
3. Overload principle - the amount of time during which the muscle relaxes and recovers between exercise sets.
4. Repetitions - a planned number of repetitions for an exercise.
5. Rest - the number of times in a row that resistance is applied to a muscle; sometimes referred to as reps.
6. The Law of Reversibility - the basic rule that the amount of resistance and duration put on a muscle will cause it to become conditioned.
7. Set - the principle that muscles will lose size and strength if resistance training is not continued.
