In regards to muscular fitness, we typically see individuals be on a range from muscular strength to endurance. What is the term for this range?
A. Series Elasticity Component (SEC)
B. Biomechanical Strength Continuum
C. Muscular output range
D.Muscular Fitness Continuum
Ans:- D) muscle fitness continuum.
Concept:-
Muscle strength and muscle endurance exist on a continuum. Given that muscle strength is the amount of force generated by one repetition and muscle endurance is the ability to exert force repeatedly over time, improving muscle strength will improve muscle endurance
All other options are wrong
b)The strength continuum refers to the four (4) core pillars of strength, and how absolute strength, strength speed, speed strength and absolute speed, interrelate to build each other
Other options are wrong:-
a) Series elastic components store energy when stretched and make a major contribution to the elastic of the human skeleton. Tendons are the major representatives of the series elastic component, but the cross bridges between actin and myosin may also contribute. Compare parallel elastic component.
